Dream venue

A MUST BOOK VENUE!! We honestly cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding weekend at Dexter’s Inn! The scenery and views is what originally drew us to this location, as well as the ability to make this a weekend celebration with our families instead of just a few hours! We were able to have our immediate families and wedding party stay right on site with us, while the rest of our guests were a short 5-min ride down the road. We also liked that we were given suggestions for vendors but also had flexibility in choosing our own DJ, caterer, BYOB, etc.

The new owners, Maria & Paul, as well as manager, Beth, and the rest of the Dexter’s Inn staff were just so unbelievable to work with! Throughout the wedding planning process, they were so accommodating, flexible, caring, and professional. Every morning, breakfast at the Inn was absolutely delicious! We used their preferred caterer, Rolf, for our rehearsal dinner Friday night and the food was delicious! Maria and Beth ran us through our rehearsal and flawlessly executed our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They checked in with us often to make sure we were all set and didn’t need anything. Their hospitality is second to none!!
The Inn itself is gorgeous and the grounds are kept immaculate. Our ceremony was on the field and the views and setup were outstanding. The tent for the reception - GORGEOUS! We had a large reception with 175 guests and there was plenty of room, on and off the dance floor!
Maria, Paul, Beth, and all the staff were phenomenal. We cannot say enough great things about them and would highly recommend Dexter’s to anyone! We are planning to make an annual visit around our anniversary each year and are already planning a ski weekend with friends!

Best Wedding Venue!

We used Dexter’s Inn for our wedding weekend in July 2022 and had the best experience. When looking for a venue we wanted a place that we could truly make our own and a property where our guests could hang out with us and with one another. Dexter’s quickly stood out as that venue. Here are some of the reasons:

The Full Property is Yours - When you book Dexter’s Inn, you get full access to all the rooms at the Inn (for your family and prized guests) as well as the property (lawn, pool, tennis courts, game room, etc.) and we made full use of that. This enabled us to do an event on Friday as well...

When looking for a venue we wanted a place that we could truly make our own and a property where our guests could hang out with us and with one another. Dexter’s quickly stood out as that venue. Here are some of the reasons:

The Full Property is Yours - When you book Dexter’s Inn, you get full access to all the rooms at the Inn (for your family and prized guests) as well as the property (lawn, pool, tennis courts, game room, etc.) and we made full use of that. This enabled us to do an event on Friday as well as the wedding Saturday. It also meant that all our closest friends and family were on-site to hang out those days and nights.

We hosted a large (120 people) outdoor event the Friday before our wedding with a BBQ that night. We played music, played lawn games (many of which Dexter’s provided) and enjoyed our guests for the day. In the morning of our wedding after breakfast (which is delicious every morning), we played pickleball, basketball and lawn games with on-site guests before getting ready for the wedding.

And lastly, we loved the game room. It was a great place to chill at night and to have the after party!

Dexter’s Staff - The staff at Dexter’s were tremendous. They went above and beyond helping us with setup, day of preparation, wedding tasks and cleanup. They were invaluable to everything running smoothly and were a joy to work with.

Beautiful Scenery - With Mount Sunapee in the background, the surrounding woods and well manicured estate, there were picture opportunities galore. It provided tremendous photos for the wedding day as well as great photos for the day before. It also was unto itself without other homes or properties near to distract from activities.

Make it Your Own - Unlike most venues we looked at, Dexter’s enabled us to bring in our own vendors, food, drink and other decorations. By buying our own snacks, drinks and alcohol we saved a lot of budget. There’s also a ton of storage on site for cakes, drinks, food and ice on-site while being 15 minutes from the supermarket and NH liquor store.

While we used Rolf and his wife (Dexter’s preferred caterer) for appetizers and dinner we used outside vendors as bartenders, the band, photographer and our cake. It really provided great flexibility to make the day and experience our own.

We really couldn’t have imagined a better wedding weekend with our guests and many said it was the most fun wedding they had been to! We are so lucky to have chosen Dexter’s for our special day.

Definitely take a visit to see the venue!

The wedding weekend of our dreams!

Dexter's Inn was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding venue. It's an absolutely gorgeous setting overlooking Mount Sunapee with a very slight view of Lake Sunapee, as well, with stone walls stretching out over many areas of the venue, a beautiful patio, high quality rooms, and a huge open-air tent for seating many guests. John, the innkeeper, is so kind, helpful, and communicative, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything worked out perfectly throughout the weekend. We were able to host all of our wedding party and family at the inn for the weekend, holding our rehearsal dinner on the patio and our wedding after party in Dexter's beautiful game room on campus....

The inn provides a delicious hot breakfast to all guests each morning, and the venue and its sprawling grounds is basically yours during your stay. We could not have asked for a more perfect site for our wedding weekend and recommend it very highly!

The perfect venue for a multi-day camp-vibe wedding

I was tipped off to Dexter's by a friend who had his wedding there years ago and thank god we got that recommendation! Dexter's is extremely reasonably priced and they do weddings there almost every weekend so John, the innkeeper, really knows how to ensure that things run smoothly. He acted as our silent operator day-of and prompted good questions during the planning process for us to think about. The property itself is gorgeous - beautiful view of Sunapee mountain, very well landscaped and SO MANY FUN GAMES (volleyball, tennis, cornhole, ping pong, etc).

There is also a converted barn on site that is the perfect low-brow high-fun place to keep the party going late night. Thank you to everyone at Dexter's for their help and relatively relaxed attitudes during a weekend of extreme fun for us and our loved ones.

Best wedding venue for a weekend celebration

Dexter’s Inn is a hidden gem of a venue. We had our bridal party, parents and grandparents all stay on site for the entire weekend. We hosted a welcome party for out of town guests on the patio and got married on the beautiful grounds. Although the weather didn’t go exactly as planned, we still had a beautiful ceremony under the tent which transformed into an even better reception space. If you are looking for somewhere you can actually spend time with your guests. This is it!! Also, John the inn keeper is extremely knowledgeable and ensures your weekend goes as planned.

Dexter's Inn was the most wonderful wedding venue I could have ever imagined. We had the Inn for the entire weekend, which allowed for us to have quality time with friends and family who traveled from all over the country to be with us for our wedding. The party started on Thursday night and lasted through Sunday morning. The buffet style breakfasts were delicious and cozy. The setting is drop dead gorgeous. Our wedding was 10/14/17 and the fall colors were spectacular! John, the inn keeper is a pleasure to work with. He has tons of experience, so he helped us organize every little detail.

We hired the catering at Dexter's for both the Friday night welcome dinner and the wedding reception. Rolf, the head chef was also a pleasure to work with and the food was delicious. Our guests are still ranting and raving about our wedding. We love Dexter's and we can't wait to go back to celebrate our anniversary and stay for a long ski weekend. It's just perfect!

A Magical Wedding Weekend!!!

My husband and I got married at Dexter's Inn last weekend. I wish we could give 10 stars!!! IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE DREAM! The new innkeepers Maria & Paul, manager Beth, and all the staff are absolutely incredible. They made our wedding vision come to life and supported us through every step with great communication and planning - so much so that we were able to truly enjoy the weekend when it arrived - as if we were guests at our own party.

Dexter's Inn is a magical place to get married. You can have 50+ of your closest people stay on site and you get the grounds for the entire weekend. It felt like our own private wedding camp, with delicious breakfasts each morning, tons of lawn games/hikes/tennis/swimming, an epic game room, and gorgeous nature. The innkeepers are so accommodating and helped us with extra set-up needs, use of the common inn spaces, and more. This wedding weekend was beyond our wildest dreams and we are forever grateful to this extraordinary team!! THANK YOU!

Wedding weekend

I could never have expected our wedding to be so perfect. We used Dexter’s Inn as our venue, had it for the full weekend, and had the best time. John made sure the events ran smoothly and was very on top of it, taking the time to communicate leading up to the date so we both were on the same page. Between John, the staff and venue, the weekend went better than we could have ever imagined.

We held our wedding on Labor Day weekend 2018. Lots of out of town guests so we were able to fill the Inn with family and friends over the weekend. John allowed the grounds to be available to all friends and guests - regardless of where they stayed - for the whole weekend. Although daunting to me to plan a wedding for 100 guests, John assisted us every step of the way. He helped by gently nudging us as the date got closer, helping us to organize and think through the various details of the weekend. The entire Dexter's staff is ever-present yet unobtrusive.

He even watched our wedding rehearsal and helped with the little details like where to walk from, pacing of the bridesmaids, etc.
The daily breakfast is a great benefit for all guests. Allowed us to all meet in the morning as people planned their day. We also used Rolfe - the in house caterer - for a bbq and the wedding reception. The food was wonderful. This was a fabulous venue and a weekend of fun. I highly recommend this venue.

When it came to finding a venue for our wedding we only looked at two venues. When we first drove up to Dexter’s Inn, it had such a great location that felt so relaxing and inviting. The innkeeper John, was so flexible, professional and really made our wedding amazing. From all of our changes we faced, John was so flexible and was so easy to work with....he not only met with us and helped us with our timeline, but he was constantly working throughout the weekend, always around to answer questions and really was apart of our day....John truly loves what he does and takes great pride in Dexter’s Inn.

I know we will return to Dexter’s Inn many times in the future because of how amazing our weekend was. So if your looking for a place to create a lasting memory you need to go to Dexter’s Inn, great food, great people, very reasonable pricing and amazing views which all equal an amazing memory you will not forget.

Dexters inn was the best place to have my wedding. I had so many compliments on my venue, and everyone who stayed the weekend loved it. If you want to design your own wedding grounds this is your place. John let us decorate the grounds how we wanted and was very helpful. It was perfect.

The planning of the wedding itself was superbly coordinated by the Inn Keeper, John Augustine...who thought of every detail and was so kind and friendly and laid back.

We chose Dexter's because of the stunning view and the ability to house such a large amount of people. With almost 85% of the wedding guests flying in from out of state it was really important to us to have a whole weekend and make it as easy and comfortable for them as possible. The Innkeeper, John, is incredible and so flexible and helpful. We actually ended up having the worst weather imaginable on our wedding day - heavy raining and freezing temps - so we were unfortunately forced to get married in the tent, but John was fast to react and made sure our day went incredibly smoothly.

John works with you to figure out all the rentals, and actually tries to save you money in the process. Our guests loved staying there and checkin/checkout process was smooth and relaxed. The best part of the space is that you can really customize your day to whatever you and your fiance desire, and we both loved having that freedom! He also was able to book our reception bartender for us who was incredible cost effective, friendly, and efficient.

We had fallen in love with the inn in 2013 at my husband's brother's wedding -- so when it came time to booking a venue for ourselves, it was a no-brainer!

The after-party in the "barn" (ping pong, pool, foosball, etc.) was a huge hit with all our guests :)

John, the innkeeper was so fantastic to work with. We were kind of clueless with the planning process, and John was so experienced and organized that he made it so easy for us to know which steps to take when -- answering all our questions quickly and kindly. We also had Dexter's cater our wedding, and it was so delicious -- Rolf Schmidt and his catering team did an incredible job!

Everything was absolutely perfect: The atmosphere, the accommodations, the scenery, the food, the service, the price. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they've ever been to. And we agree :)

Dexter's Inn was the most spectacular and fun place to host our wedding weekend! Gorgeous views and grounds. John at Dexter's was professional, made sure everything went smooth all weekend, and was helpful every step of the way. We had the entire inn and grounds for 2 nights. It was important to us to be able to have more than just our wedding to spend time with our friends and family. There are 16 rooms and a 2 bedroom cottage that our guests could stay in. There are dog friendly rooms too. We played lawn games all day, hung at the pool, played in the game room all night, and had all our wedding events right there on site....

We had Dexter's cater our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception. For the price, everything was great!!! They really took care of everything and coordinated with all of of vendors. The planning process went smooth too. We met twice with the innkeeper and the rest we did through e-mail. We ended up staying 4 nights and look forward to now having our family reunions there. Everything is there in one place and made being able to enjoy the time with family and friends that much more enjoyable. Stress free wedding weekend!

Perfect wedding location. It offered beautiful scenery and was completely private for our guests! John acted as a wedding coordinator throughout our wedding planning process and kept us organized! It probably would have been chaos if it were not for him! He has a lot of experience and made things completely non-stressful!

It has more character than an average hotel, while being completely comfortable, and the property is unbelievably stunning!! Rolf Schmidt, the in-house caterer, is an excellent choice with this venue as well. The food is delicious, great service, and competitive pricing. I would recommend this place to anyone for a New England wedding!!

As the mother of the Bride I was worried about every detail. John was a wonderful host who took care of all the details and helped us just relax and enjoy the day with our guests. We enjoyed the Inn for the entire weekend. Josh and his staff were accommodating and very professional. Years later family & friends still rave about how wonderful Dexters Inn was! Highly recommend.

My husband Mark and I were married at Dexter's Inn in September of 2014. John and his staff made our wedding weekend the best weekend of our lives. The location is beautiful and the quality of the service is incredible. We never once had any stress about our venue because John made it so easy to plan and organize the weekend of our dreams. I would tell anyone wanting an outdoor wedding to marry at Dexter's Inn!!

Our family and friends are still RAVING about how much fun they had at our wedding! Everyone (even a full year later!!!!) tells us its the best wedding they've ever been too!
Dexter's is picturesque, quaint, romantic, rustic, laid-back and extremely reasonably priced! It was the first and last venue we looked at! As soon as we stepped foot on the grounds, we knew it was exactly what we were looking for!

I recommended Dexter's to everyone who is looking for a memorable location for their wedding! You will not be disappointed! I wish I could share our pictures on here, because the amount of love everyone had that weekend shone so bright in all of our photographs!

John, Helen and their staff went above and beyond for my wedding weekend extravaganza. It was all hands on deck for my wedding as I had a lot of specific decor and things I wanted to do. John and Helen never once shied away at some of my ridiculous suggestions. The guests that stayed at the inn raved about the comfortability, affordability, decor, landscape, and delicious breakfast. Dexter's Inn is beautiful, comfortable and makes you feel like you are on top of the world. We had a little trouble with weather and the Dexter's Inn staff took care of it effortlessly. My guests had fun all weekend and were well taken care of. THANK YOU TO JOHN AND HELEN AND THE WHOLE CREW AT DEXTER'S INN FOR MAKING MY DREAM WEDDING COME TRUE.

I recently had my wedding at Dexter's Inn and had an absolutely amazing weekend, start to finish, much in part to the staff and accommodations at Dexter's Inn. The Inn owner John was very helpful from the start in planning and vendor recommendation all the way through the wedding being there for everything I needed. Getting married isn't inexpensive but I would say there is a great value in selecting Dexter's Inn as your venue. The best part of the whole weekend was having our entire family able to stay with us onsite for the whole weekend. I would definitely recommend Dexter's for a beautiful outdoor wedding.

Dexter's was the perfect place for our wedding. We had the entire Inn to ourselves, filled with family and friends for the weekend. John, the owner, is extremely laid back, and accommodating. We could not have asked for better service. He catered to our needs/wants without question. Dexter's truly made our wedding day about us. Many of our guests were also very impressed with Dexter's, and we had a lot of people asking how we found such a cool venue. I highly recommend Dexter's to anyone who is looking for a destination weekend wedding in the mountains. They provide the most beautiful scenery, friendly staff, and the price is right.

My wife and I were married at Dexter's in June 2012, and had been planning our wedding with the help of John the innkeeper since summer 2011. Everything about the experience was top notch: From the get-go John was incredibly helpful to us in wedding-planning. He was on-the-ball and thorough, and simultaneously laid back and unimposing. The wedding itself went off without a hitch (minus epic rains that barely made a difference, except further demonstrating how flexible and hard-working John and the Dexter's staff are). As for the inn itself, ground are beautiful and well-kept, views are stunning, building and facilities are clean and comfortable. It's a place where one really feels at home. The game room and some of the more funky-shaped rooms out in the barn/annex are great for kids. Couldn't have asked for more.

Hello!

My husband and I were married at Dexter's Inn on 7/14/12 (three weeks ago)! We had our rehearsal dinner on-site there the night before. We had our entire bridal party and immediate family stay on site with us (about 50 people). I cannot say enough good things about our experience. John Augustine and his team bent over backwards for us from beginning to end. Our ceremony was gorgeous, overlooking the mountains and was followed by the best reception ever (I'm not biased or anything)!! The reception was in a tent outside on one of their tennis courts. The tent was lined on the inside with twinkle lights. At 11pm when the music shut off, we all set...

If you are looking for a wedding weekend experience that is fun, warm and beautiful, this is the perfect place. I wish I could have been a guest at my wedding. :)
