Because the resort sits on a private 21-acre lake, lakeside and terrace setups are common; ask the events team what locations are available on your date and whether a rehearsal is included.

- Indoor options include Grand Cypress Ballroom, Windsong Ballroom, Portico, La Coquina

Reception and event spaces to consider
The resort has large divisible ballrooms (Grand Cypress Ballroom and Windsong Ballroom) that can host a wide range of guest counts, plus mid-size and intimate rooms such as Portico and La Coquina. Event space configurations are flexible; the Windsong Ballroom divides into up to 12 sections.
When planning a reception, check what the venue fee includes (tables, chairs, pre-function space) and whether food and beverage minimums apply. The resort’s catering team handles on-site food service; outside caterers should be confirmed with the events office.
