Welcome to the Estate
A family-owned lakefront estate in Central Florida, offering on-site lodging and a year-round glass pavilion for unforgettable weddings, retreats, and celebrations
Our Story
Where History, Hospitality, and Heart Meet on the Shores of Lake Alfred.
Originally built in 1942 by Dr. Charles and Emmie Adams, the Estate began as a private lakeside home for family and friends—a place for connection and celebration. Today, lovingly restored by the family’s third generation, it continues that legacy as one of Central Florida’s most timeless event destinations. Set across twenty-two acres of lakefront beauty, Adams Estate blends classic architecture, manicured grounds, and inviting indoor-outdoor spaces designed for every kind of gathering.
Weddings
A Wedding Celebration that Feels Effortless and Unforgettable
Begin with a relaxed rehearsal dinner in the Boathouse, say “I do” beneath the live oaks, then celebrate beneath glowing string lights on the terrace before dining and dancing in the glass-enclosed Pavilion. When the night winds down, your guests can retreat to cottages and suites just steps away.
From intimate elopements to grand celebrations of up to 200 guests, Adams Estate offers a setting that feels both personal and spectacular.
Accommodations
Extend Your Stay, and the Memories.
Extend the celebration with on-site accommodations that blend comfort, charm, and convenience. Adams Estate offers elegant cottages and suites for up to 54 guests, all just steps from the heart of the property.

Whether for a wedding weekend, family reunion, or corporate retreat, the Estate offers more than a place to stay—it’s a home for connection and unforgettable moments.
