Homer, MI
  • Up to 200 guests

  • 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.

“Stafford's Perry Hotel was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was fast, transparent, and detail-oriented, putting our minds at ease throughout the planning process. Our coordinator, Angie, was an absolute joy to work with - she kept every vendor on track and ensured that our day was perfectly planned and executed. It’s clear she knows the wedding coordinating process at her venue like the back of her hand, any question I had was immediately cleared up and she was so honest and transparent about any thing I thought I wanted that she wasn’t sure would look good/work out well. The entire Perry staff were friendly, professional, and amazing hosts, making all 175 of our guests feel right at home. The food was to die for, the drinks were amazing. Our guests raved about it all night. The venue itself is beautiful and timeless, providing the ideal backdrop for our special day. We had the best night ever celebrating at the Perry Hotel, and we couldn't be happier with our choice of venue. They made my dream wedding a reality!!!!”

“Working with the orchard wedding venue on many occasions has been super fun and with ease. As a vendor I'm able to communicate with the owners and receive quick responses back with regard to loading and unloading equipment. Easy access to multiple overhead doors makes the process of setting up for weddings a lot easier than other locations. The staff themselves are super friendly and know exactly what they're doing based on experience I believe honestly. If there is any need for help with anything such as tables or chairs the venue without question is able to help. Keep in mind everything is a two-way street and venues like this expect professionalism and I can appreciate that. From time to time the breakdown of equipment can be lengthy in the process. The Orchard wedding venue has much patience and allowing things to be taken down in a sufficient amount of time. I truly recommend this venue for your special day it will be unforgettable from the picturesque view to multiple locations for wedding ceremonies.”

“I HIGHLY recommend having your wedding with Infinity & Ovation Yacht Charters! There are far too many favorite memories and experiences to share, but one of the most special was our first dance as husband and wife beneath the Ambassador Bridge. It was truly unforgettable. If you’re looking for a beautiful lake view wedding with a stress-free experience, IOYC is the way to go! Their team takes so much of the planning and wedding-day coordination off your shoulders while connecting you with trusted, experienced IOYC vendors for flowers, DJ, photography/videography, cake, linens, and more. On our wedding day, their team made sure everyone in the wedding party was comfortable, prepared, and taken care of before the ceremony began. Everything from the procession to the ceremony ran smoothly, seamlessly, and on time. Most importantly, my husband and I were able to relax, be present, and truly enjoy every moment. Our guests were incredibly well cared for throughout the evening, and even at the end of the night, having their cars valeted and ready for them made leaving effortless and was such a thoughtful final touch. The combination of exceptional service, delicious food and drinks, beautiful atmosphere, and dancing made the entire experience unforgettable. The reduced stress, quality of care, and overall experience made every penny spent absolutely worth it. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful way to begin our forever!”

“Rose and the team at Bay View Weddings were absolutely impeccable. I wish I would have understood from the jump that I could put my full faith in her and her team, and they would follow through to make my dream wedding come to life, it would have saved me a lot of sleepless nights. We enjoyed the most beautiful autumn day for our wedding and guests seriously could not believe the view from the overlook ceremony site. Rose made accommodations for us to drop our stuff early and was truly able to answer every question along the way with patience and kindness. I did not have a wedding planner and therefore might have leaned on Rose more than most brides, but she did not falter. I truly do not have enough good things to say about this venue or the staff, and our most perfect day will always be remembered because of the time and care that was given to us by Gallagher Farms.”

“At Lake Lucy, you can fully design the wedding of your dreams. Anything is possible! It’s lovely spot for any event of any size, vibe, theme, celebration, etc. This place truly is a blank canvas to create your own unqiue vision into a reality. Mandi and Andy (the owners) are utterly amazing to work with… Open-minded, kind and professional, they truly supported us every step of the way, even more than I personally could have imagined. I cannot say enough good things… My husband, Brennan, and I were married at Lake Lucy on October 1st, 2022. Overall, it was an absolutely wonderful experience on every level, and our 225 guests were more than pleased with all aspects of the ceremony and reception, including the location, food, outdoor setups, etc. It was a beautiful celebration and the guests enjoyed everything about it, even more than expected. Due to unforseeable circumstances, Brennan and I were forced to pivot and make a lot of stressful, last-minute changes within the two weeks just prior to our wedding date. It was frustrating and overwhelming, to say the least. Mandi and Andy took us under their wing, troubleshooting our sudden issues, providing solutions to all of our setbacks and stress, while aleviating our nerves and personal worries. They helped to pick up the pieces and bring our vision to life in ways we could have never anticipated or wished for. We are forever grateful! Our wedding ceremony was held outdoors, next to the lake. We designed our own alter and held the ceremony in a gorgeous spot. Our reception immediately followed, with large seated tent and dance floor, an outdoor bar setup, yard games, live music, food prepared onsite (giant meat smoker), and more. As dusk hit and the evening set-in, there was a giant bonfire by the lake for guest to enjoy, with musicians roaming playing music, before switching over to a DJ to amp-up the party vibe. The property is massive, secure and secluded. A diret road leads you to a private gravel entrace. Our parking was set near our staging area, with special accomidations for handicapped guests. Mandi and Andy own a stunning, large “log-castle” home at the far end of the lake, but the property is open outside of that! The house is mostly removed from view and from access during a wedding, but they opened their basement to the bridal party for pre-wedding needs, giving my gal pals and I a badass place to get ready and relax prior to the event. The basement has a private walkout entrace, full kitchen/BAR, stone fireplace, bedrooms, huge full bathroom with private dressing room kitchen/BAR, movie thetre for watching sports/films, game room with pool table, etc. My bridesmaids and I felt comfortably pampered in this space as we dressed for the event, we sipped chanpaign and shared laughs as a stylist did our hair and makeup onsite. Photographers joined us there to document it too (Mandi included). They turned out to be some of my favorite photos! Once the bridal party was ready, we boarded the back of Andy’s decorated tractor, and he drove us around the lake, down to the wedding site. We arrived in-style, making a grand entrace to the party as guests were mingling before the ceremony. It was perfect, entertaining and super fun! Lake Lucy is natural oasis of nature tucked away in the woods, approx only 10 minutes from the highway, making it accessible to all travelers and guests. Mandi and Andy are outstading, accomidating hosts. Highly recommended! Thank you, Lake Lucy.”

“My husband and I had the most wonderful wedding at Sherman Lake! I attended camp there as a child, and the gorgeous Michigan woods—and scenic lakeside chapel garlanded with a wisteria—was a perfect space to honor our love. The reception hall was gorgeous, food incredible, and planning and staffing utterly seamless. The best part was the venue manager, Mandy. We call her our wedding fairy godmother: she took the stress fully out of the planning, used her culinary degree and experience to plan an unforgettable meal, and thought of everything— so we could just be present on one of the most important days of our lives. Thank you Mandy and Sherman lake!”

“We got married at Boatwerks Waterfront Restaurant and loved how the staff honored our special requests and took care of every detail with such kindness. The views from the venue are truly unbeatable and made the perfect backdrop for our celebration. Communication was solid once we got closer to the wedding day, and the team was responsive when we needed them. One thing to note is that the cleanup felt a bit rushed, and the doors locked before our time was actually up, which caught us off guard. Despite that hiccup, the staff's attentiveness and the gorgeous waterfront setting made our day feel special.”

“My husband and I got married at North Lake October 4th, 2025 and had the most beautiful backdrop to the day. North Lake was incredible to work with and were so accommodating. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful the venue was. Dan really has put so much thought behind every detail from not having any curbs or steps making it incredibly handicap accessible to constantly making upgrades that only add to the experience. My husband and I are both huge baseball fans and we got married on a Cubs Brewers postseason game that started at 2pm. The tv in the groom's room was not working and Dan brought a tv from his own home and had it set up in time for the game. Any questions I had were promptly responded to by Danelle and she was so sweet and personable. If you're looking for a venue where you have the control of which vendors to work with while not missing out on the location and luxuries of an inclusive venue I'd highly recommend North Lake.”

Venue considerations

  • On-site parking not available

“We had a group gathering at Camp Greenwood and having the entire camp to ourselves was wonderful. It gave us plenty of room to be together without sharing the facilities with any other groups, and there was something for everyone to do. The cabins are clean and well maintained, and each has its own indoor toilet, sink, and shower. The dining hall is lovely, with a clean, certified kitchen where you can prepare your own meals or have food catered in. There is also plenty of room next to the dining hall to put up a big tent for an even larger gathering. The setting is magnificent. Camp Greenwood is on the private Woodbeck Lake, which is stocked for great fishing, and we could use the canoes and kayaks. There is a huge playground for the kids, a shelter with a stage, and a big field with lots of room for kids and adults to play or just enjoy being outdoors. Lots of forests and 2 spots for camp fires make the place super memorable. What makes Camp Greenwood special is being able to have everyone together in one place. People can eat together, play together, enjoy the lake, sit around the campfire, and then stay right there in the cabins, heading for bed whenever they needed to. It is a fantastic place for a family reunion, wedding weekend, or any gathering where you want more than just a few hours together. You don't just rent a room—you get the whole camp!”
