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.

Dream Venue from a Vendors POV
The dance floor is on the smaller side which makes packing it so much easier and ensures every party is fun and intimate. I've never seen a bad wedding here, and I attribute a lot of that success to how awesome the venue and staff are. From a DJ's perspective, it's a great venue and Kate is so amazing at making sure things stay on track and happen as you envisioned them!
If they have your desired date open, jump on this place! You won't regret the weekend full of memories you'll gain.

A dream come true
The Boathouse gave us the best day ever!
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!
