Vanderhoff Lake George Wedding

From the very first tour to the final moments of our wedding day, LeAnna at The Inn at Erlowest was an absolute dream to work with. She guided us through every step of the planning process with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care, always making us feel supported and heard.
LeAnna and her incredible team brought our vision to life with such grace and attention to detail—it truly was the perfect day. We are endlessly grateful for their dedication and talent.
The Inn at Erlowest will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and we’re already looking forward to the day we return.

Most amazing wedding venue and staff of all time

I truly don’t even know where to begin—our wedding at the Erlowest was, without a doubt, the best day of our lives. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking, but what truly sets Erlowest apart is the incredible staff.

From our very first tour, LeAnna and Laurie made such a lasting impression. They were warm, knowledgeable, and knew how to make our vision come true. Throughout the entire planning process, they were unbelievably responsive—every email and phone call was answered within a day—and they consistently went above and beyond to guide us with their expertise.

LeAnna, our wedding point of contact, is nothing short of amazing. She listened so carefully to everything we envisioned and made sure every detail came to life exactly as we had hoped. She was not only organized and professional, but also incredibly kind and reassuring—an advisor in every sense of the word. I tend to have a lot of questions, and she was always so patient, gracious, and thoughtful in every response. She truly made the entire process feel seamless and brought our dream wedding to life.

Laurie, who handled accommodations, is wonderful. Because our wedding was in June, earlier in the season, she worked so hard to ensure that most of our friends and family could stay on-site. That made such a difference and turned our wedding day into a full wedding weekend, which was so special for us and our guests. Everytime my mom saw Laurie she cried because we were just so happy to see her!

The entire experience felt like a true team effort, and it was clear that every single person at Erlowest gave 100%. Even knowing they host multiple weddings during busy weekends, they made me feel like the most important bride in the world.

And of course—the food was outstanding, and the preferred vendors they recommend are truly top-tier. We had at least 30 guests tell us it was “the best wedding they have ever been to,” and we owe so much of that to the Erlowest team.

My husband and I are already itching to go back. It means so much to us that we now have a place we can return to again and again to relive and celebrate the best day of our lives.

We are beyond grateful to the entire Erlowest team for creating such an unforgettable experience.

PS- if you are at the Erlowest you must check out the bar. Coolest bar I’ve ever been to.

Best wedding venue ever!

My husband and I were lucky enough to book Erlowest as our wedding venue this September and I can’t say enough positive things about it! It was truly the best day of our lives thanks to the lovely staff at Erlowest. The food was out of this world delicious and the service/accommodations left nothing to be desired. Every single person there was so kind and helpful. The venue itself is beyond gorgeous. Leanna and Molly specifically made sure I had absolutely no worries on our big day. We had many tough critics at our wedding and SEVERAL guests reached out to note that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! I feel so lucky to have been able to get married here and you will not regret booking it for your special day!

A Dream Come True Wedding-- Beyond Expectations

As a detail-oriented person who values exceptional customer service, I can honestly say that our experience with Molly and LeAnna and the venue in Lake George far exceeded every expectation we had. From the very first consultation to the final send-off at the end of our wedding night, every single detail was executed flawlessly.

The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking – nestled in the heart of Lake George with panoramic views that made for the most stunning backdrop. But what truly made the experience unforgettable was the level of professionalism, care, and dedication from the entire planning team. They were responsive, organized, and proactive – always three steps ahead, which allowed me to relax and truly enjoy the planning process (something I never thought I'd say!).

Molly has a rare gift for understanding a couple's vision and bringing it to life with warmth, precision, and creativity. Everything they recommended was top-tier, every timeline was perfectly orchestrated, and every personal touch we hoped for was thoughtfully included. They treated our wedding as if it were their own – and that made all the difference.

If you’re planning a wedding in Lake George and want an unforgettable, stress-free experience that truly honors your vision, look no further. We are endlessly grateful!

Amazing! Highly Recommend

LeAnna, Laurie, and the entire Erlowest team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding. From the very beginning, they were incredibly organized, thoughtful, and friendly — every call and email leading up to our big day was prompt, productive, and reassuring. We truly felt supported every step of the way and are so happy we chose the Erlowest.

On the day itself, everything was flawless. From the golf carts shuttling our guests around the property to the fabulous food and attentive bartenders, every detail was handled with care and professionalism. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the service and the overall experience.

The property itself is breathtaking — the stunning views and historic charm created the perfect backdrop for our celebration. But what truly set the Erlowest apart was the peace of mind we had, knowing that LeAnna, Laurie, and the rest of the team were managing every detail behind the scenes. Because of them, we were able to be fully present and simply enjoy our day without any stress or distractions.

We can’t recommend the Erlowest enough to any couple looking for an unforgettable, seamless wedding experience!

10/10 experience!

We recently had our wedding at Erlowest and it was the most incredible weekend! From start to finish, Erlowest was so accommodating and helpful, and helped make the wedding planning process run so smoothly, which was especially helpful as we live out of state. LeAnna, Laurie, and Molly were a dream to work with, and truly made our wedding weekend absolute perfection- our vision came to life and we could not be happier. I cannot recommend Erlowest and their team enough!

They made our dream a reality!

From the moment we toured the Inn at Erlowest, we knew it was something special. What truly sets this venue apart isn’t just its stunning beauty (though it is breathtaking) but the way they make you feel like your wedding is the only thing that matters. They only host one wedding per day, and it shows—you truly feel like the princess of the castle.

The staff was absolutely incredible. Jaimee, LeAnna, Molly, and Laura were with us every step of the way—always communicative, endlessly patient, and genuinely excited to bring our vision to life. They made sure every detail was perfect, and their day-of coordination lifted so much stress off my shoulders. I never had to worry about a thing.

The venue itself is gorgeous, but the experience they provide is what makes it unforgettable. We had so many opportunities to customize our day, and one of the most special moments was our private, no-look vows—something the venue helped us arrange perfectly.

And the food? Absolutely incredible. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about it.

The Inn at Erlowest didn’t just host our wedding—they made our dream of a perfect winter wedding come true. If you’re considering this venue, stop thinking and book it. You won’t regret it.

Dream Wedding!

Right from the second we toured the venue we knew this was where we wanted our wedding!

After booking our date we were introduced to Jaimee. She was truly great to work with from start to finish. Anytime I sent an email with a question she responded within a day. Never once did I have to follow up on anything. I couldn’t have been more happy with the communication and service.

The day of our wedding ended up being the most perfect day. We dropped off a ton of decor for the team to set up and everything was set up perfectly. We literally felt like we were the king and queen being driven around in golf carts to all the locations and listening to Jaimee and LeAnna talk on their headsets!

Aside from the venue being absolutely gorgeous the food was fantastic. The packages include so much that your guests will definitely not leave hungry.

We had so many guests tell us at the end of the night our wedding was the best wedding they’ve ever been to! We couldn’t have been happier. The only problem is that we wish we could do it all over again!

Thank you so much to the Erlowest staff for literally making this the best day of our lives! We will never forget this.

Fairytale Wedding Venue on Lake George

My Husband and I got married at the Inn at Erlowest in October 2023. We always knew our wedding day would be amazing, but it seriously wouldn’t have been the same if we hadn’t chosen to have our wedding at the Inn at Erlowest. My family has gone to Lake George my whole life, so I always knew getting married up there was the dream, and as soon as we stepped foot at Erlowest we knew we found the most amazing place. First of all, the venue is breathtaking and the accommodations on site were so convenient to have, and so well kept! What really stole our hearts though, was the team of people they have. Jaimie was our coordinator throughout the process of wedding planning, as well as LeAnna, and they seriously took care of everything for us. I would have been so stressed, but with them everything was easy! If there was any hiccup on the wedding day, we never knew about it because everything was handled that perfectly. I could rave about the team all day. And the food! Seriously everything was delicious from cocktail hour to the entrees. My husband and I would choose this venue and this team to work with time and time again if we had to do it all over. The Inn at Erlowest and the team there will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and we are looking forward to going back for years to come for anniversaries, special occasions, etc. Do yourself a favor and book your wedding with this wonderful team!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
