The Clark’s Lakeside 

5.0

Homer, MI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,800

We began our journey in 2015 with a dusty gravel pit and vision for a new home. The gem was the stunning 30 acre crystal clear lake. After purchasing the property we found ourselves hosting church activities and work functions as people truly loved being here. Slowly, we began adding amenities to the property. In 2020 one of our daughters got engaged. As she began looking for a venue to host her wedding we came to realize that the perfect spot was right in front of us. We wanted it to be a very special place and we went to work to create a beautiful wedding venue. There are many opportunities on the property for one of a kind pictures. There are two picturesque options in front of the lake for the service and a new reception building that can seat up to 200 guests. With a 5 acre campus larger weddings can be accommodated with tent rental.

We had an impeccably amazing experience with the Clark’s and their venue for our daughter’s wedding. From the first time we met them, Todd and Tammy were gracious, accommodating, and a pleasure to deal with. They are an amazing Christian couple who shares their beautiful property selflessly with others. They ensured we had everything we needed and that all of our questions were answered. They were reliable, kind and helpful every step of the way up until we left the premises after everything was over. The venue is so peaceful and beautiful, a perfect place to experience the joy, hope and love that weddings are all about. Highly recommend The Clark’s Lakeside!!! You will NOT be disappointed!!!

We don't have enough great things to say about The English Inn. The grounds are breathtaking and made for the perfect location for our wedding. The gardens are beautiful and well-kept and the riverfront was a peaceful backdrop for our ceremony. The on-site rooms allowed us to keep our immediate family and closest friends close which made for the perfect wedding weekend. We had great locations for getting ready which made for excellent photo ops. The staff was so friendly and considerate and went out of their way to make our weekend special. I can't thank everyone enough, especially Adriana who addressed all of my emails in a friendly, timely manner. She was constantly checking in throughout the wedding and ready to address any issues that arose. We're looking forward to spending many of our anniversaries here for years to come.
