Events in 2022
As the pandemic conditions still are loaming we have chosen to host the events in 2022 differently than in the past at the Waterfront Pavilion. However, if you are looking to book in 2023, we have more of a packaged event plan. Scroll down for 2023 and beyond events.
The fenced in waterfront area known as the Waterfront Pavilion area is available for rent along with hosted bar services. However tent(s), tables, chairs, dance floor, décor and any other add ons are available separately for rent through our preferred vendors. Please inquire with us if you would like to discuss more about available dates and details.
Events in 2023
The Waterfront Pavilion area will feature a custom tent set up on the waterfront south side of marina property featuring a private full service bar, private bathrooms and adjacent open air courtyard. We work in conjunction with an exclusive caterer to provide the best options for your party. Special requests are welcome to customize your seaside event. For example, if you need more space for your event ask about the extension tent add on option and other additional services. In addition, we can help plan both arrivals and departures by boat from the water for a true seaside event. In conclusion, the Waterfront Pavilion Tent is ideal for wedding receptions, reunions, fundraisers, corporate events, concerts, festivals, and more. We encourage you to inquire with us if you would like to discuss more about available dates and details.
