DAWNA DALOSTO is a scammer and kept our money! We booked over a month in advance a year ago, showed up with our clients and she had forgotten to write it in her schedule and was busy so turned us away after traveling long way. After showing her proof of our payment she agreed to refund our money WHICH SHE HAS YET TO DO A YEAR LATER! WARNING DO NOT BOOK WITH HER! Now she is ignoring all of our calls and emails! She is probably "lisa c." that wrote the other review here! read more

Yes, this is a beautiful location, but don't expect anything from the owners! This is a hunting/fishing lodge not a wedding venue! Working with Vicki was like working with a gold fish. She quoted us the wrong price and then cornered my father at the wedding demanding $900 more! She claimed to not have known about different things we requested; though we had multiple conversations about the fact that there would be alcoholic beverages served and that we would be renting table clothes. She claimed this never happened and they had no idea until the day before. They also never got us a contract and would take several days before returning phone calls. We were told there would be staff to help with set up and take down and no one was there. Included in the wedding package was a breakfast for the couple the next morning, this never happened and when I asked Vicki about it, she said no one said anything about it so she didn't do it. If it's part of your package, why would the bride and groom need to check with you to make sure it's happening?! The outside area of the lodge was also dirty, we had to sweep and pick up fishing gear and clean windows and dump bird baths. There was supposed to be a beach where we could take pictures, but it was completely overgrown and unkempt; there's no way a bride in a long dress could have walked down there. The wedding was beautiful and went off without a hitch, but no thanks to the lodge owners and staff! NOT WORTH THE HEADACHE!! read more
