Surfside on the Lake

My husband and I just had our wedding at the Surfside on the Lake this past Friday, 9/3/21. I’m a CT bride, but grew up vacationing in the Lake George area. When my husband and I decided on a small intimate ceremony with just 23 of our closest friends and loved ones, I knew it had to be a small destination wedding on the Queen of American lakes.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about the venue in general, and about Mark and Sami in particular. From the second I decided to book my wedding date with them, they were attentive to my every need, and were in constant contact about next steps and what they needed from me.
We had a small intimate ceremony on the deck overlooking the Lake, and could not have asked for a more beautiful location to declare our love for one another. Our reception was out on the newly built Club Hamilton deck, and it was absolutely breathtaking. The deck affords you a nice view of the pool, all the way down to the lake. This is where Mark and Sami really shined. With just a few simple reference photos they were able to turn the space into a beautifully elegant embodiment of my vision. They even did my bouquet and centerpieces!
Everyone enjoyed the food. We did a plated dinner and decided to serve the Prime Rib, Panko Herb Crusted Cod and the Veggie Lasagna with the Cheesecake for dessert. And for a snack later in the reception, we had a nacho bar complete with cheese fondue fountain.
We did a room block with the hotel for the weekend. There are lots of different rooms available at different price points, which ensures that guests on any budget will have no trouble getting a room. Every room I went into was nice and clean. The resort itself has tons of amenities like a beautiful pool, kayak or paddle boats for guest use, and of course an amazing Lakefront beach. Guests will never want for things to do if they’re spending a night or two on property. And the hotel is in the center of Lake George, walking distance from everything, which is a plus in a town that’s majority street parking.
Both Mark and Sami were super attentive to any request or questions I had. If I emailed or called I always got a timely response. I never had to call or email multiple times to track them down. They really were an absolute dream to work with. They executed my vision better than I ever could’ve dreamed, and they’re such friendly and pleasant people that you can tell from the day you meet them you’re in the best of hands. I have heard from every one of my 23 guests that joined us for the weekend, and everyone has said how beautiful the wedding was, and how much fun they had. If you’re looking to book a wedding in the heart of Lake George, look no further. The place is gorgeous, reasonable, and Mark and Sami will make sure that your day turns out to be whatever you want it to be!
