Lighthouse Keowee Restaurant Reviews

We had our wedding here 4/9/2022 and it was absolutely beautiful! We booked a little over a year in advance with Chad and the entire process was easy and convenient! Chad’s communication was impeccable and lessened my stress as the bride. The set up was timely and exactly as I pictured! Food from the Lighthouse was inexpensive in comparison to other wedding catering and delicious! 10/10 would recommend this venue/catering for your wedding!! Thank you so much to Chad and his crew

Chad was positively amazing! Holding a wedding in the midst of this pandemic was challenging to say the least but Chad and our coordinator Kayla Williams (Wedding by Williams) made our wedding perfect. The venue is gorgeous being situated on the banks of Lake Keowee, the food was spectacular, and the services was second to none. Wedding photos were taking a while out in the sun so Chad brought my his and and I our preferred cocktails to sip between shots near the lake. It was so very thoughtful. I can't express all the ways he went above and beyond to make our day run smoothly. I recommend this venue highly for a wedding and/or reception! The price I am listing includes venue and food for the reception for 45 people.

This venue was perfect! They helped us to adjust to the changes around Covid. And the food was amazing! I have always hated going to weddings with blah food. So having the best of food for my reception was key. They delivered above and beyond!

The venue is beautiful! The staff excellent! They accommodated all our needs, Chad did a fabulous job as all the people involve! Our wedding was so beautiful and everything went smoothly thanks to them! I absolutely recommend them!

Perfect weather, setup, and flow. The food was amazing. It was a great price I couldn't find anywhere else for offering so much.

Our wedding was perfect all thanks to the lighthouse crew! Especially Savannah Russell!! She is amazing and helped me out so much during the planning process!!

This venue was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. Savannah was very helpful with accommodating to our needs and made it a great experience.

Everyone was super helpful and sweet. The Lighthouse Event Center and Restaurant staff made our special day go smoothly!

We had our wedding reception at the Lighthouse and it was absolutely perfect. Savannah was great to work with from start to finish, and everything was just how we wanted it! The staff was great and did a wonderful job taking care of all our guests. The night was perfect, everything we could ever imagine it to be! We will always recommend Savannah and The Lighthouse!

Savannah held my hand through the entire process of planning my son’s rehearsal dinner. Her calm approach and attention to detail made me calm and made our planning go smoothly! Then! The food and the servers were TOP NOTCH! It is a beautiful venue and you can trust this staff to step up. It was a wonderful and beautiful evening!

Savannah was the best wedding planner and the lighthouse was a perfect venue for our wedding. From the start she worked hard to meet our requests including letting us paint tiger paws on the side walk and creating a floor layout with food stations to personalized decor. Every recommendation (DJ , florist, and especially cake baker) were fantastic. Our visits to the lighthouse planning the wedding were so much fun. The chef was amazing, making a second plate of crab cakes for me during the tasting as well as creating an hor d'oeuvre menu on the spot. I walked into the reception in awe of how breathtaking it was with all the decorations in the late evening light. Our guests raved about our food. She took my cake request very seriously making sure a to go bag was in our drive away car and surprised us with other leftovers with forks, which was fantastic when we got back to hotel starving. Savannah made the whole wedding planning process easy and fun. The evening was perfect and unforgettable.

This was better than I could ever imagined. Working with Savannah and the staff was wonderful. Her vendor recommendations were fantastic and the planning process could not have gone more smoothly. She was able to accommodate all of our requests and went out of her way to search for just the perfect accessories. Her attention to detail and personal customer service was outstanding. We felt so special. The final result took our breath away and the food was absolutely delicious!

The Lighthouse staff hosted our son’s rehearsal dinner and the quality was second to none. The staff was quick to respond to our every need. We were able to host a stress free elegant event for our son

Savannah helped my husband and I coordinate the wedding of our dreams! Best and most beautiful day of our lives❤ Our guests still haven't stopped raving over the delicious food!

The wedding venue was beautiful! Food was amazing and staff was excellent! Would highly recommend them to anyone! Savannah is the BEST!!!

The staff was very professional and attended to our every need. Attention to detail and food was impeccable! Couldn't ask for better experience!

Everything was great for our wedding!

Working with the lighthouse- coordinator Savannah and the chef Mark was AMAZING. Food, service, assistance with details and ensuring everyone had a magical time. Top notch! We'll definitely be back! Thank you!

Savannah and the staff at the Lighthouse Event Center was amazing. They worked within my budget, phenomenal food, and a gorgeous venue! Would recommend to all future couples!

We had a wedding and reception here. The staff was a pleasure to work with. The venue was beautiful. The food was excellent! They have wonderful gluten free and vegetarian options as well!

Lighthouse event center is an amazing venue for any party, but I held my wedding reception there. Right on lake keowee, it has beautiful views on the back porch and convenience on the water. The coordinators were diligent in getting back to me via email and the entire staff was professional. Also.. As an event center and restaurant, there food is absolutely AMAZING. They did a fabulous job conforming the menu to my liking. I am extremely pleased with their service and as a lake girl, this was the PERFECT reception venue!

The event center at Lighthouse Lake Keowee has the best food around!! We had pork, fish, and steak for our dinner with several sides and it was the best dinner we could have asked for!! You just have to make the trip there to see for yourself what a good decision it will be to secure the Lighthouse for you catering. They offer options to make it easy for you to decide and it's not a standard menu that is set for every wedding. We were so happy with the food and it's nice to hear from guests how great the meal was!!

The price and value of the venue was excellent. Savannah (event coordinator at the Lighthouse) was really nice and she provided a list of suggested vendors for our wedding. Every single vendor from that list was excellent. Savannah was nice and accommodating. I probably asked her the same questions many times, but she answered all of my questions patiently. All of the staff on our wedding day were very nice and helpful. We got many compliments on the food and bar selection. Overall, I am very pleased with our choice to get married at The Lighthouse Restaurant & Event Center. We had an amazing time and we owe a lot of that to Savannah and the whole staff at the Lighthouse.

Thanks to Savannah, Ben and the whole Lighthouse team who contributed to making our wedding reception and rehearsal dinners so special. Savannah's professionalism, creativity and follow-up where top notch!

The Lighthouse was such a wonderful venue! They were by far the most affordable venue around, they were wonderful to work with, and the possibilities were endless when it came to decor. The view overlooking the lake was gorgeous, and even though we ended up having to move the ceremony inside due to rain, the staff was very accommodating and everything still looked beautiful!
