From the moment we stepped foot on the grounds of The Lodge at Schroon Lake, we knew we had found the perfect venue for our wedding. The staff's communication style was thorough, kind and accommodating, ensuring our vision was centered throughout the planning process. They introduced us to the entire team that would be working on our special day, and were incredibly flexible in meeting our requests, like adding gender neutral bathroom signs to make our LGBTQ guests feel welcome. The quality of their work is simply gorgeous - the elevated rustic, charming aesthetic of the venue fit our style perfectly.

Seven ponds was an absolute dream for our wedding. The location itself is breathtaking and gorgeous. To The mountains, the ponds, the farm animals to the tasteful decorations, us and our guests were blown away by the beauty of this venue. Beyond being beautiful, the team at seven ponds farm were incredible. The team is really there for you the whole weekend and to help ensure your wedding is a success. We had several older guests in need of help, and they were driven by a golf cart around the venue which was extremely helpful. The food and drinks were amazing, our guests are still raving about the food. And Maria, was amazing. Our wedding was amazing, and our vision came true, and we couldn’t have done it without the support and help from the team here at seven ponds.

Went to a wedding here and it was absolutely gorgeous. The food was fantastic and the camp itself was so beautiful, ranging from the green fields to the incredible waterfront. The hosts set up a large tent and dance floor on the soccer field protecting us from the intermittent showers that day. The tent was lined with string lights and looked almost magical when the sun began to set. On Sunday morning we walked down to see the lake surrounded by mountains of trees. Loved this place!
