Simple Pleasures
and Special Moments
Maine’s Kennebec Valley provides the beautiful backdrop
your once-in-a-lifetime event deserves.
Rolling hills of green, the vibrant reds, oranges and yellows of
an autumn treeline, an ancient horse barn set against a stone
wall, a country inn with a history reaching back to the days of
the Revolution, a mossy forest trail beneath majestic pines
or an open lawn set beside a stream-fed pond. Each and all
of these are and could be an ideal location for your special
day. What’s more, all are here waiting to become the setting
of a special event.
Here are just a few ideas to consider:

Destination Weddings
A celebration of marriage here tops the list, mostly because
of the pristine beauty you’ll find in every corner of our region.
However, when planning a destination wedding it is critical
to offer your guests some additional diversions to make the
trip worthwhile, and from whitewater rafting to an excellent
night out in Waterville, we believe we’ve got you covered. Oh,
and don’t forget that we make an ideal getaway for a bachelor
or bachelorette weekend or, even better, a great destination
for the honeymoon.
Reunions of All Kinds
Whether you are looking to reconnect with schoolmates or
family or just pulling together a group of old friends for a
camping or canoe trip, or a couple of days away with the
guys (or gals), there is more than enough here to fulfill every
wish in your group.
Hunting (for game or antiques), sport shooting, ATV or
snowmobile riding, paddling the day away or finding your
way up a rocky mountainside together. We give you
tons of options.
Corporate Retreats and Team-Building Events
A way for you to get the group to connect, reconnect or maybe
even re-reconnect. There is something about sticking a bunch
of people out in nature that really facilitates bonding. Add to
that our ability to make it east for you by providing the guides,
locations and gear needed to make it all come together.
