The Lodge was the perfect venue for our October Wedding. The lake side ceremony site with all the fall colors was beautiful and the perfect backdrop. The firepit was a great and fun addition to the reception. It accommodated our 110 guests perfectly while still keeping a large dance floor in the center.

From the moment we stepped into The Lodge on our first visit, we knew it was “The One” The venue truly did check all of our boxes-and although we visited in February we could already envision how beautiful it would be for our Autumn wedding. Our instincts proved to be correct. Inside and out the aesthetics were gorgeous. In spite of it being a rainy October day we were able to have our ceremony out by the lake (and thanks to Shari for her steadfast faith that we would!) but it would have been beautiful inside as well as the room was transformed into the most warm, inviting, magical space….our guests are STILL talking about it!This spacious venue provides so much…updated prep kitchen, bridal suite and restrooms, ample and convenient parking and useable indoor and outdoor space. The rustic vibe and surrounding woods and lake provide an idyllic setting. The Lodge also provides chairs and tables, does not require the use of their list of vendors (but will provide recommendations to those they have a good working relationship with) and really allows clients the space to create their vision. We loved the fact that the rental fee goes back to the Preserve, Knowing that we helped support this beautiful resource was a great feeling.And enough cannot be said about Shari Green the event coordinator. From the day we signed the contract she was always right there…always very responsive and helpful, giving recommendations, advice, guidance and reassurance. Her logistical help on our wedding day was priceless! We never had any nerves because Shari guided us through the process in such a seamless way. Our wedding day was dreamy and magical and perfect, the fairytale wedding we didn't even know we wanted! And it is, in no small part, attributed to this beautiful venue and the amazing staff. If you are looking for your dream come true wedding look no further than The Lodge at Richfield Heritage Preserve!!

Shari added Christmas decorations for us which made the Lodge look very festive. She had plenty of fire wood for us, opened the Lodge promptly at 9:00 am, and personally called me after we left to inform me that I had left two items behind.

I can't say enough wonderful things about this venue. The event coordinator and the staff were easy to work with and attentive to details. The venue itself was beautiful, and the perfect setting we were looking for. The Lodge allows for both indoor and outdoor space for the reception. We had our cocktail hour on the back porch and the band played on the front porch with the firepit nearby. Dinner was served inside. The Lodge is tucked away in the forest which makes for a very scenic back drop. My husband and I would not have been happier having our reception here.

My wife and I got married and had our reception here back in October. The venue was perfect. The trails surrounding the lodge made for beautiful pictures. Shari was great to work with. I've suggested this venue to my friends who are engaged and one of them already reserved their day for next year. 10/10 would recommend.

I wish I could give more stars. This venue is literally a hidden gem in Richfield, Ohio. The venue site offers the most beautiful view for your ceremony too. We instantly feel in love during our walk thru. Our day came and Shari was extremely helpful and added her own little personal touch. The Lodge itself is absolutely breathtaking. I loved that we were allowed to bring in our own vendors. We didn’t even have to leave the venue because it’s on 300 acres! So many different areas to capture the most beautiful pictures. Thank you everyone at the lodge for helping in any way during our wedding, we appreciate you!

This is a great place for a wedding if you are looking for a nice outdoorsy venue. We had our ceremony outside overlooking the lake and it was absolutely beautiful. There are a variety of nice spots for photos featuring the lake, trees, paths in the woods, and old brick buildings. The lodge there was a great spot for the reception, and tables and chairs were included and set up for us. Although we could hire whatever vendors we wanted, they did have some recommendations. We chose to hire from that list and we were extremely happy with them all. Shari, the event consultant, was good to work with and even helped me set up and decorate a cake cutting table at the last minute when I hadn’t planned for one! We got so many compliments from our guests about the location being really nice. They even have a fire pit next to the lodge, but unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy it because it rained by the end of the evening.

My husband and I are SO happy we found the Lodge for our wedding! The location is fabulous (central to all of our family and close to nearby hotels while still having a charming, woodsy setting) and the lodge itself was fantastic - with all the updates, we feel like we actually got an even better venue than we paid for! And compared to similar venues in the area, it was super reasonably priced, especially for indoor/outdoor space use, day-of use and prep time, A/C (a big deal for us), and flexibility with caterers/florists/etc. Bonus is that the property offers really stunning photo opportunities as well! Shari is such an amazing consultant: from our first meeting, we could tell that she cared about us and our event, was always easy to reach out to, and is very organized. I cannot sing the praises of the Lodge enough- it is a hidden gem here in Richfield and allowed us to have the exact wedding we dreamed of!

My son's August wedding at the Lodge was perfect. The ceremony by the lake was beautiful, followed by a cocktail hour on the patio, and dinner and dancing in the Lodge. The event coordinator, Shari was exceptionally easy to work with throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding. She had recommendations for all the vendors we needed. She is friendly, professional, and experienced in the industry. Shari has great attention to detail. The Lodge had everything we were looking for in a venue. The size, location, parking, remodeled bathrooms and bride room, indoor fireplace, indoor and outdoor bars, a fire pit, and so much more. The grounds were meticulously manicured. The improvements that are continuously being made to the Lodge make this a venue that merits serious consideration.

Easiest 5 star review ever. We were about to book with another venue when we saw The Lodge pop up on our search engine, and I am so glad we scheduled a visit. The park itself is a gem, and the Lodge and its offerings continue to improve. However, the BIGGEST part of why we booked is Shari, the event consultant. She is incredibly responsive, professional, and knowledgeable with an incredible vision. Knowing my money was supporting the park was an added benefit. While we didn't have our ceremony onsite, we did host a cocktail hour on the patio and were able to take photos throughout the park. Our guests RAVED about the venue. The front porch/back porch situation is perfect, especially since it poured on our day. It still allowed guests to be outside. AND, we can visit the park any time we want to remember our special day. 10/10, would book again.
