Willow Haven Lodge was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, Duane and Kitty were incredibly flexible, open, honest, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire planning process.

The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous - with a rustic, cozy, and unique vibe that was exactly what we were looking for.

The Haven at Cedar Grove 

4.7

Logan, OH
  • Up to 280 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

In 2016, Cedar Grove’s owners, Kevin and Julie Claus, were sitting on the porch of Stillwater Lodge with some friends, gazing upon their 65-acre property. With 6 cabins and 2 lodges running smoothly, it was time to start planning for their next adventure. They talked about their 3 children growing up on the property, and reminisced on how so many milestones were celebrated. With all their kids growing up, they talked about them finding love and how wonderful it would be to see them married on the property where they shared so many memories. That was the day the dream began! Kevin quickly grabbed a napkin and feverishly started scribbling sketches of a large lodge that could hold all of their friends and family, celebrating the futures of their children. In true Claus fashion, they did not let this vision pass them by, and got to working on the lodge right away.

The Haven was exactly what I was looking for in a venue! We decided to use The Haven because they had so many options for our ceremony location. We wanted an outdoor wedding, but Ohio weather is unpredictable, so we wanted some backup options too. The outdoor spaces are beautiful. We originally planned for the alcove with the paved path (which was great because it was accessible), but rain moved us to the covered patio which was still beautiful! We used the building to get ready in the bridal suite, and for dinner and dancing. The paved, lighted patio was perfect for our faux exit (we had planned to use it for cornhole but rain/snow had other plans). We used many items from The Haven's borrowed decor collection, which saved us time and money. The decorations were beautiful, and with some minor touches (we added white pumpkins) became just what my Pinterest vision board created in my mind! The catering company (The Feed) that The Haven connected me with was an excellent choice. The staff at The Haven managed to set up our taste testing, help arrange our menu, and helped make sure that everything with the caterer ran smoothly on our wedding day. The bar service at The Haven was also top-notch! All my guests (even the kids) enjoyed the beverage choices at the open bar. The fall mocktails were phenomenal! The staff at The Haven were knowledgeable and professional in all areas of wedding planning. The online planning tools helped organize things and keep everyone on the same page. We are so glad we chose The Haven for our wedding and highly recommend checking them out!
