Book Your Dream Wedding Stay

How it works
You have the opportunity to book the Anchor Inn for your wedding stay with friends and family as you prepare for your big day.
We’ll help you plan an amazing stay, then toss you the keys! It makes for an experience like no other. You get to hang out on the beach, kayak, e-bike, light bonfires, BBQ, play lawn games, and use our sauna before jumping into the lake to cool off. After a long day of fun, each guest can retreat to their private rooms at night.

Get Started!
Email us with your dates + ideas and Austin (Wedding Group Coordinator) will reach out and set up a time to hop on a short phone call to answer any questions and discuss details! Next, we will create a special code that your guests can use online to reserve their room. When booking the entire inn there is a minimum of two nights but guests are free to extend their stay for as long as they please!
Guests will be charged the regular nightly rate. However, there is a (non-refundable) flat fee of $1500 (May-Sept), or $500 (Oct - April) to have exclusive use of the inn for your group. The individual handling the exclusivity fee will be required to sign our wedding agreement. Any remaining rooms that aren't booked by your guests will be the financial responsibility of the signer.
If you feel like picking up the check yourself, we can quote you one total price for the days you want to rent the Inn and you can assign people to rooms anytime before arrival.
All room deposits and payments will be non-refundable 3 months prior to arrival. Payment for any empty rooms will be taken upon arrival.
