Not only was Craig extremely professional and accommodating, the grounds were even more amazing than we could have imagined. We rented the lodge for the entire weekend (Wednesday through Sunday) and it was everything that we wanted and more. The staff was fantastic, the grounds were beautiful, and we are already booking our next trip back with friends because it has now become one of our favorite places to go. If you decide to come here for any type of event, you will not regret it. 10/10!

As a wedding floral designer, I've had the pleasure and honor to work at the Lacawac Sanctuary's Historic Waters Lodge. It is a beautiful combination of history, simple elegance, and the outdoors. I would recommend it to any couple looking for a unique venue in northeast PA.
