All-Inclusive Destination Wedding Packages & Transparent Pricing

We take pride in the transparency of our pricing structure with absolutely no hidden fees. We are aware that many wedding venues are not up front with the overall cost, making it difficult for couples to determine if they can stay within their budget or not. We decided to change that industry standard and make all of our pricing easily available to anyone interested in our venue. Our transparent pricing structure makes it simple for potential wedding couples to determine, to the penny, what their wedding at The Nature Inn will cost by using this simple equation:

Package Cost + (Reception Menu Cost x # of Guests) = Total Cost to Nature Inn

All charges, including tax & gratuity, have been calculated and are included in our all-inclusive pricing structure for every wedding package that we offer. Likewise, our reception pricing is based on the menu selected, service style, and actual number of guests attending and is a straightforward, all-inclusive price per person. Please note that wedding receptions that exceed 90 guests, or choose to have tented reception seating, will require additional equipment rentals with corresponding charges. Your event planner will be glad to provide you with a personalized quote.

Guest Accommodations & Booking Commitment​

As a destination wedding venue, you and your guests will enjoy exclusive use of the entire lodge for your wedding gathering and celebration. By booking your wedding with us, you are committing that you and your guests will be booking all sixteen (16) of our overnight guest rooms for both nights of your destination wedding package.

Every destination wedding package that we offer includes a complimentary bridal suite for the wedding couple for both nights of their package. The wedding couples is responsible for assigning their guests to the remaining fifteen (15) guest rooms, which the guests will then book directly with the inn.​ A 15% lodging discount is provided for all wedding guests who stay at the inn.

Everything we could have wanted and MORE!

My husband and I got married this past weekend and it could not have been more perfect. We knew we had stumbled upon something special when we visited the Nature Inn for the first time. Settled on top of a hill in Bald Eagle State Park, sits this 16 room inn with stunning views.

From our first inquiry, the wedding coordinator (Kashia) was extremely responsive and accommodating. Leading up to our wedding, Kashia ensured all details were in place. She assisted in finding the perfect spot to take photos and had an answer for any question that we had. Kashia is who all venue coordinators should strive to be.

Upon arriving at the inn, our guests were blown away by the fact that we had the entire inn to our party for both Friday and Saturday night. The ability to have a weekend long celebration was one of a kind. The package we selected included the rehearsal dinner, breakfast and lunch for guests staying at the inn on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday morning. Kashia was extremely accommodating and worked with us to allow additional guests staying off site at the local Marriott in Lock Haven to join for both Friday night dinner and Sunday morning breakfast. As all of our guests traveled far to be apart of our special day, it was important that we were able to include them in the full celebration.

Guests were also impressed by the beauty of the Nature Inn and the surrounding Bald Eagle State Park. We had many guests go fishing, kayaking, and hiking the morning of our event as the bridal party was getting ready! There are also golf courses 20 minutes away from the inn that guests enjoyed!

Not only was the Nature Inn accommodating, but the food was exceptional! My husband and I received compliments all weekend on how amazing the food served by the Nature Inn was. We chose the Filet Carving Station as our main entree for the reception and guests said it was some of the best steak they've ever had.

One great compliment that we received from our guests was the versatility of the reception. Inside in the lobby area was the dance floor (hire Alex from Mint DJ Events!), outside was a patio area where guests could eat and relax, and then further down is a fire place where guests could enjoy s'mores! There was something for everyone!

The staff at the Nature Inn was exceptional! Everyone was friendly and extremely helpful. The staff made all of our guests feel welcomed and comfortable. The staff set up the entire reception area, with the exception of a few details that we provided.

It was the most perfect wedding. My husband and I received many compliments saying this was the best wedding they had ever been to. I am extremely grateful to the Nature Inn and Kashia for all of their hard work that they put in to making the weekend more than I could have ever imagined.

Perfectly Lovely

Our daughter's "dinner party" wedding was beautiful! Dan was super helpful and the food was outstanding. We appreciated the available staff who made this dream wedding possible. The backdrop of the lake and mountains was breathtaking. Thank you lovely staff!

A Wedding to Remember!

We had the most magical weekend wedding for my daughter's wedding! I would highly recommend The Nature Inn at Bald Eagle State Park as the place to celebrate any important event in your life. The scenery is beyond beautiful, the staff is attentive and professional, and the food is delicious! Every single guest raved about the wedding venue and how much they enjoyed their time at The Nature Inn. We will always consider them for our family's events. Thank you!! Mother of the Bride

Everything we could've imagined and more!

The most common comment from guests during our wedding: "This venue couldn't be more perfect!". The Nature Inn was not only a beautiful venue, but the service there was impeccable. Kashia is the wedding coordinator there, which comes with the wedding weekend package. She lays everything out for you so planning was a breeze. She was so quick with communication and answering all of my questions. When minor things came up the weekend of the wedding, she had a solution ready before we even knew there was a problem! She was also ready to give our ideas a try, and was honest with us when she knew something wouldn't work practically. The food all weekend was amazing. No one was ever hungry or left without a delicious meal. They kept everything clean and tidy throughout the weekend, and the night of the wedding they gathered up put all of our decorations and had them ready for us to take home. The whole staff was personable and paid attention to detail. Highly, highly recommend!

Seamless spring wedding at the Nature Inn :)

We recently got married at the Nature Inn (April, 2022) and we would highly recommend this venue to anyone interested in an intimate and naturally beautiful setting for their wedding. We had such a positive experience working with the Nature Inn! There are so many things that we were grateful for, but we will highlight what really stood out to us:

Communication: The wedding coordinator, Kashia Quay, is fantastic to work with. She is attentive and communicative, answering our emails usually within hours. We were out of state during the wedding planning process, and she had multiple hour-long conversations with us to address all our questions and concerns as well as making suggestions to help our day run smoothly. Throughout these meetings, she was always organized and thorough and also so accommodating. She worked with our limited availability to get us into a tasting and made multiple last-minute changes regarding our rooming arrangements. In addition to her amazing aptitude, Kashia is also just a delight of a human!

Ease: Getting married here was surprisingly smooth! We have heard from many of our other friends getting married about the difficulties of coordinating vendor teams- rentals, catering, transportation, etc. At the Nature Inn, we loved that many of these items were covered by the venue. And what the Nature Inn didn’t do themselves, they helped us to find by recommending local and high-quality vendors. Not only did this make our vendor search easier, because the venue had worked with these vendors before, we experienced seamless integration on the wedding day.

Food and service: The food was fantastic! We loved all the different options. We opted to do the trending stations where we had soft pretzels, philly cheesesteaks, passed hors d’oeuvres (people raved about the mini beef wellingtons!), and salads. We also added in a cannoli station! It is worth highlighting that Kashia made this happen for us after we mentioned in passing we were interested in having cannolis during our tasting. This was so well done, we had two filling flavors and many toppings that the guests could make their own cannoli creation! Multiple people commented how great the food was and we thoroughly enjoyed it. They also were extremely accommodating with food restrictions for our guests.

Venue location: The Nature Inn is beautiful! The surrounding area is lovely and peaceful, allowing for great photo opportunities. We loved seeing all of the birds and our guests enjoyed exploring and hiking throughout the weekend. The Inn itself is lovely, the rooms are comfortable, and we appreciated the modern and sustainable architecture. We loved having the fire pit both nights and we LOVED having everyone on site.

We'll be back!

I cannot recommend The Nature Inn enough!! The weekend all inclusive package is PERFECT for an intimate but memorable experience. The staff is friendly, accommodating, and professional.

Kashia, the venue coordinator, works to communicate with your vendors to make your weekend a smooth and enjoyable experience for the couple! HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!

7/31/21 Wedding at the Nature Inn

My husband and I had our wedding at the Nature Inn on 7/31/21 and we couldn't have made a better choice. Our family and friends are still talking about how it was the most amazing wedding/wedding venue and our wedding was two months ago! Having our entire bridal party, family and close friends be able to stay with us from Friday to Sunday truly was the best part. For most weddings you work so hard to plan the most perfect wedding but it is over in six hours or so. The fact that our wedding weekend was truly a wedding weekend made it so much more special. The rooms/suites are huge and we had several friends share rooms so more of them could stay with us and celebrate, highly recommend doing this! Everyone at the Nature Inn was so kind, generous, friendly and responsive to everyone that was part of our wedding, but the true rockstars are Kashia and Charlie. Kashia went above and beyond to make our weekend perfect. She answered my emails and calls within an hour of me reaching out to her and helped me with so many details, she is truly an amazing soul. I wanted to surprise my husband with our dog for pictures and she helped me to smuggle her onto the site and keep her hidden (and happy by the way

Nothing short of spectacular

The Nature Inn at Bald Eagle is such a beautiful, comfortable and memorable place to host a wedding celebration. But what made our experience so special was the staff; Kashia, Charlie and the team are the heartbeat of the Inn, and they deliver 10/10 service all wedding weekend long. Kashia and the team are experienced and professional. More importantly, they are thoughtful, kind people with strong work ethics.

We had so much fun exploring the grounds before the big day, decorating the venue to our heart's content, and enjoying all of the delicious meals and treats throughout the weekend. We were so grateful to have an opportunity for quality time with family and friends who stayed on site. At the heart of all of our wedding planning was a desire to spend this time with those we love and whom we hadn't seen in a very long time, after a turbulent pandemic year. The Nature Inn couldn't have done a better job at making this happen.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
