The Boathouse

Lakeside Charm. Effortless Celebration.

Tucked along the quiet edge of Lake Alfred, the Boathouse is one of Adams Estate’s most beloved spaces—relaxed yet refined, with a natural warmth that makes every gathering feel memorable. With open-air lake views, soft string lighting, and the gentle sound of water just steps away, it’s the perfect place for a rehearsal dinner, welcome party, or farewell brunch. The Boathouse invites guests to slow down, savor the view, and settle into the heart of the weekend.

A Setting That Feels Like Home

Once part of the original Adams family property, the Boathouse has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its timeless character while offering modern comfort and convenience. Inside, natural wood tones, airy ceilings, and soft light create an inviting atmosphere. Outside, wide doors open to a lakeside deck—ideal for mingling, live music, or toasts at sunset.

Intimate enough for heartfelt gatherings yet spacious enough to host up to XX guests, the Boathouse is one of the most versatile and welcoming venues on the Estate.
