“We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue for our wedding! Everything was absolutely perfect, and the setting made our day even more special. A huge thank you to our event coordinator, Corinne. She was truly amazing from start to finish on our wedding day! She was so helpful, organized, attentive, and made sure everything came together perfectly. Having her there allowed us to relax, enjoy our day, and not worry about all the little details. Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be, and we’re so grateful to Corinne and everyone at the venue for helping make it such a beautiful and unforgettable day.

The Clark’s Lakeside

Homer, MI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $3,000

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 three 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 offer DJ service, PA rental, bar service, and exceptional vendors for catering and coordination services.
