Testimonials
Our guests had a great time and we couldn’t have had a more special place to have our wedding. Our guests from Europe immediately asked when we could do a reunion, they loved it so much!
-2025 Bride and Groom
My experience at the North Lakeland Discovery Center was outstanding. They hosted our wedding reception on a beautiful fall day in late September, and the outdoor setting was perfect to accommodate our needs. The staff were all very kind and easy to work with, and the facility is very conscious of the environment just as I am, so I really appreciated the low-waste and sustainable product practices. The onsite cabins were nice to have for my family that wanted to stay overnight. I would highly recommend the Discovery Center as a wedding venue for anyone hoping for a quaint, Northwoodsy experience!
