OUR HISTORIC VENUE
Main Floor
The main floor features a large foyer with Grand Staircase, Dining Hall, Lounge, Conference Room, coat room, kitchen, and ADA restrooms.
Our Dining Hall, Conference Room, and Lounge are where you will gather with your guests to create memories that will last a lifetime. You will have several layout options for tables and chairs for seating up to 152 guests in the Dining Hall and Conference Room (Don’t worry! The conference tables and chairs will be moved out for weddings.) More guests can be accommodated if fewer tables are required than at a sit-down dinner. If you are having a bar, there is no better place to have it set up than in the Lounge. Your guests are going to LOVE hanging out there.
The coat room is located directly off the Foyer for easy guest access. The large kitchen is available for caterers to set up and serve food. No cooking is allowed on site but there is expansive counter space, a refrigerator, and freezer for convenience.
Second Floor
The second floor features a Lodge Room, Preparation Room, Antechamber, and two restrooms.
Our gorgeous Grand Staircase leads to the second floor and an elevator is available for those who need it.
The Lodge Room is the jewel of the building. Its domed ceiling, masterfully restored in 2021, and the beautiful trim work make it a truly special place. It is the perfect spot for a wedding ceremony and there is no other space like it in southern Minnesota. You will also find the Preparation Room on this floor where half of your wedding party can get ready for your big day. It even includes a private restroom. There is another restroom off the Antechamber for your guests’ convenience.
