“Our experience with The Boardwalk team was incredible. From touring the venue with Matt, to having our regular check-ins with Madison, to planning out the small details with Chef Alex and Chantal, this day couldn’t have been what it was without them and their willingness to accommodate all of our requests.

The venue is so pristine and the views are just absolutely incredible. If we could give The Boardwalk 10 stars, we would! Thank you for making our wedding day so special and unforgettable.”

“I absolutely loved photographing a wedding at The Boardwalk!

Not only was the venue absolutely stunning with so many cool photo opportunities- but the staff was amazing. Everyone who works here truly loves what they do and radiate love and kindness. Madison was the day of coordinator I worked with and she was outstanding. From being a bundle of joy to organizing all of the guests for the sparkler exit photo moment, she thought of everything. I would love any excuse to come back and enjoy this space as a guest or photographer.”

“They are hands down the best! At the end of the night, I remember going to Matt and saying, “I don’t know why people stress,” because everything was so seamless and stress-free thanks to them.

Our guests loved being able to relax by a fire, playing a game of corn hole, or being able to just explore this beautiful venue. The flexibility to make your day exactly what you want sets this space apart from all the rest. I truly could go on and on about how great this place and all the details that make it so unique and perfect & it’s dog friendly, loved being able to have my girl with us.”

“If you want your wedding to be the best party of your life, you need to book The Boardwalk! The most gorgeous venue in the Midwest!! The staff will make planning easy, and know exactly what needs to be done to make your day special. A full service venue that will help on finding vendors and think of every detail you might forget. My wedding was a dream come true and it was because of The Boardwalk.”

- Melissa, Bride

“Our friends hired The Boardwalk's own private chef to throw us a party under the stars to celebrate our engagement and it was incredible. The atmosphere is perfect with twinkling lights, gorgeous scenery, a great sound system and absolutely DELICIOUS food. If you are looking for a way host a unique event, throw a memorable party or get married, I can't recommend this experience and location enough.”

- Lora

“Nestled right on the water, the views are unreal and offer such a dreamy backdrop for portraits at any time of day.

I had the pleasure of photographing Nolan & Emily’s wedding here and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Matt, the owner, was on-site all day and such a grounding presence - helpful, kind and clearly invested in making sure everything ran smoothly. That kind of support is rare and so appreciated, especially when you’re working hard to help a couple’s vision come to life.”

- Taylor Whealy, Photographer

“If you're seeking a venue that has amazing staff, beautiful landscapes and genuinely cares about you as a couple absolutely book the boardwalk! As a photographer I have never had such a seamless and well ran day in my 4 years of doing weddings. The owners Matt and Kathryn have put so much thought and attention to detail to not only give the couples and guest an amazing experience but also the vendor teams! Very thankful of the opportunity to photograph one of my couples here this year and can't wait to hopefully photograph many more!”
