    Chassey and the Dock’s Beach House team made wedding planning straightforward, stress-free, and truly enjoyable. Their billing and fees were transparent, reasonable, and flexible—no surprises, just great service. The venue offered beautiful views of Lake Erie and plenty of activities to keep guests of all ages entertained throughout the weekend. The Dock’s staff handled setup, teardown, and cleanup seamlessly, allowing us to focus on celebrating with our loved ones. Our best advice? Rent the entire motel if you can, and have any overflow guests stay just across the street. If we could give this more than five stars, we absolutely would!

    Docks Beach House was the perfect venue for our wedding day! From the moment we first contacted Chassey, their communication was quick, easy, and incredibly kind - they were so accommodating throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with perfect views of the white sandy beach and an amazing setup that exceeded our expectations. Chassey and her crew handled the entire day flawlessly, from the set up to the buffet and cocktails. They were truly the best, and made our dream wedding a reality - all while staying within our budget! They even offer a decor rental option that saved us so much time and money. I cannot recommend Docks Beach House and Chassey's team enough. They made our special day absolutely perfect!

    Docks Beach House catered our wedding! We had the BBQ Buffet that consisted of Chipotle’ BBQ Ribs, Baked Chicken Breasts with a side of BBQ sauce, Corn on the cob, Au gratin Potatoes, Corn Bread Muffins and Tossed Salad. Everything was delicious!!! The ribs were very tender and falling off the bone. My family and friends loved every bit of it and wanted more. Docks Beach House is now one of our favorite eating places!!

    Chassey was awesome!! She was very kind and sweet. My husband and I booked the venue/pavilion 21 months prior to wedding date sight unseen based off her personality, customer service, pictures, cost and the fact that I wanted a beach wedding in Ohio. The months and days before the wedding, if we had any questions, comments or concerns, she responded in a reasonable amount of time. We went to visit the venue a year before the actual wedding (5/27/2024) so that we could get a visual of the area. The day of the wedding, Chassey and her team were very helpful, kind and courteous to myself, family, and friends. They helped us decorate the venue although we brought our own decorations. Everything was beautiful and ready before the start of the wedding. They made us feel very comfortable. They went above and beyond our expectations. We (family and friends included) will definitely be back to visit for vacation.
