About
On WeddingWire since 2009
The Boathouse Restaurant and The Lodges at Cresthaven is a wedding venue located in Lake George, New York. Nestled at the base of the Adirondack Mountains on Lake George, this 11-acre estate provides a scenic and secluded location for celebrations of love. The historic property was built in 1876 as part of the Adenin estate, then purchased by New York Times publisher Adolph Ochs in the 1920s. For many years it was an iconic stop on the lake’s Millionaire’s Row and hosted visitors such as Buffalo Bill Cody and John Philip Sousa. Today, it offers a romantic setting for couples looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a magical lakeside weekend.

Emily G. Married on 05/13/2022The Boathouse gave us the best day ever!
We always knew we wanted to get married in Lake George (even before I met my husband). The Boathouse was the only location that checked every box - affordable, ceremony spot overlooking the lake, responsive on-site contact, and most importantly during COVID as well as to provide the best experience possible - a very large venue with multiple places to go! The thing we (and our guests) loved most about the Boathouse was you could be out in the gazebo overlooking the lake, on the docks, on the beach, at our s’mores bonfire, at the outdoor bar… the options were limitless and our guests took full advantage.
We knew we loved the amenities at the boathouse, but the staff went above and beyond. No matter what we threw at them or requested, they responded immediately with professionalism and kindness. They found me a ton of lighters when we had none for our sparklers, were attentive about making sure we got appetizers to our table while we were on our unforgettable hackercraft cruise, they cleaned and boxed everything we needed at the end of the night… I could not have asked for more - they did everything so we could sit back and enjoy! Booking the boathouse for our wedding was the best decision we could have made, and I have to personally thank Jayne for answering every email with kindness, flexibility and in a timely manner!The Boathouse Restaurant and The Lodges at Cresthaven's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was such a pleasure working with you throughout the planning process and we are so pleased to hear that you were so happy with our services. Thank you for choosing The Boathouse! We wish you both our very best! -

The Boathouse Restaurant & Lodges at Cresthaven are one-of-a-kind!! Has a million dollar view overlooking beautiful Lake George and the Adirondacks. Just gorgeous for pictures!! This is a perfect location for small intimate weddings. It is elegant and classy. Relaxing and super comfortable. It's almost like you're in another world!! Not to mention the food. I had dinner there with my family in June 2013 and superb service plus, if you get a window seat, you're almost in the Lake!!
