The Perfect Wedding Venue!

We held our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at Coachmen’s Lodge on 5/24/25, and it was everything we dreamed of and more. The venue is absolutely stunning—elegant, warm, and surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds. The outdoor ceremony spaces are breathtaking, and knowing that they offer equally beautiful indoor options in case of rain gave us such peace of mind. No matter the weather, you’re guaranteed a gorgeous setting.

Alanna, the wedding coordinator, is a true gem. She’s not only organized and professional, but one of the most kind-hearted, genuine people I’ve met. She stayed in contact with all our vendors, was always quick to answer any questions, and made the entire process so smooth and stress-free. On the big day, she and her team made sure everything ran flawlessly—I felt calm, cared for, and truly beautiful.

The food and drinks were incredible—our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was! From the moment we arrived until the last song played, the Coachmen’s Lodge team exceeded every expectation.

If you’re looking for a venue with charm, professionalism, and a team that genuinely cares about your day, Coachmen’s Lodge is the one. They helped make our wedding absolutely unforgettable!

Bridal Shower

I hosted my daughter's bridal shower at the Coachmen's Lodge this past weekend, and I couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out. Dani Larue, the event coordinator, worked closely with both my daughter-in-law and me from start to finish — taking the time to walk us through every option and making sure no detail was overlooked. From our very first planning conversation to the moment guests arrived, he made the entire experience seamless and truly beautiful!

The covered outdoor patio was simply beautiful — potted flowers, rose bushes framing a tranquil pond with a gorgeous fountain, and ivory tablecloths and lilac napkins made it the perfect setting for a shower.

We went with the Shower Lux Buffet, and we couldn't have been happier. The wait staff greeted each guest with a personal touch when they arrived, offering a choice of their homemade Blueberry Sangria or a Mimosa to kick things off — and honestly, either way you couldn't go wrong. Guests were welcomed by a front buffet table filled with cheese and crackers, fresh fruit, french toast sticks with maple syrup, and beautiful assorted mini yogurt parfaits before the main lunch — everything was delicious.

For the main meal, we went with a combination of brunch-style dishes. The spread included a garden salad, warm dinner rolls, honey roasted ham, baked rigatoni in a pink vodka cream sauce, parmesan roasted garlic mashed potatoes, and a roasted vegetable medley — rounded out with scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and sausage, and biscuits. Every dish was absolutely delicious, and guests really enjoyed the food! We capped it all off with an assortment of mini desserts from Wright's Farm, and they were the perfect ending to the meal.

Everyone seemed to have had a great time, especially my daughter — the one who mattered most! I got several texts afterward from guests saying how perfect and beautiful everything turned out.

I can't recommend this venue enough. The wait staff went above and beyond — attentive, gracious, and genuinely focused on the guests — and Dani made a point of being there in person to ensure the entire event went off without a hitch! Thank you!!

Hidden Gem

I can not say enough good things about the coachmen’s! This is not my first event I have thrown here and it definitely won’t be my last! Danny and his whole team are professional and always above and beyond. I recently had my daughter’s first birthday in the ballroom. Danny worked with me to create a menu that fit my needs and budget. He also had a meeting with me and answered my numerous phone calls about how I wanted the space set up. They allowed us to come in early to decorate our space. They even created food tags that matched my theme and colors (just because they are the best!) My guests raved about the delicious food! Im so happy to have this hidden gem close by!! Highly recommend !!

An amazing choice

We had an amazing venue when we chose the Coachmen's! The event coordinators were amazing (shout out to Dan!) and the food was AMAZING. SO many guests complimented us on the food! You definitely get what you pay for at the Coachmen's and it was worth EVERY PENNY. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful venue where the workers will do everything possible to make your day special to you and your S/O.

9/25/25 wedding

I would 110% recommend the Coachmen lodge for a venue for weddings and receptions. The grounds are exceptional, food is wow, staff is professional. If you get the chance to work with Dan Larue you will not be disappointed! He has an eye for what he does and made the whole planning process stress free and had some really good ideas and insights for our wedding that made the day exceptional and our guests can’t stop talking about. I just can’t say enough about our experience and how wow Dani was!

Intimate Wedding Patrick & Erin 10/12/2024

Hats off to Coachmen's Lodge!

Special thank you to Dan Larue for making planning our special day seamless, easy, fun and stress free! Dan's responsiveness and industry knowledge was impressive and set my mind at ease. From menu planning, floor plan to linen options he really was terrific! I'm glad the gold linen napkins I chose suited in the end ;-)

Thank you Tiffany Santos for bringing your digital and marketing expertise! Again, we were very impressed with our signage and her coming through with her photography skills. Tiffany went above and beyond!

To all the staff members, servers, bartender & behind the scenes, thank you! The food presentation was lovely and delicious! The service was impeccable!

Start to finish, all the members of Coachmen's Lodge made our special day one we will always remember.

Warm Regards - Patrick & Erin

Thoughtful and Caring Attention to Detail

Our experience from start to finish was incredible. Our ceremony and reception were held at Coachmen’s Lodge. Even though it rained and we had to hold the ceremony inside, it was equally as beautiful. However, when the rain stopped, we were able to scoot outside and take photos wherever we wanted. Laura was an incredible wedding planner who was on top of everything. I can’t say enough about the positivity and energy of the staff. The food was outstanding and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions that our group had, such as gluten-free options.

Simply the best.

When I tell you perfection, this place is TOP NOTCH. Danny and Laura are literally next level. I truly don’t even have the words to summarize how perfect they made everything. The grounds are out of a magazine, the food is out of this world, and the service is unmatched. If you want your wedding day to be everything and more - this is the place. A million thank yous isn’t enough for the staff here, I just absolutely adore this place!! Thank you for making my day everything I’ve dreamed of and more!
