The River Barn began life decades ago as a dairy barn just a few minutes walk to the world famous Ottawa River rapids.
It seats up to 120 in the cow barn and the adjacent milking room is now a pub and the barnyard is a beautiful rustic patio overlooking a lush meadow.
What used to be “Cow Heaven” is a perfect venue for your wedding along with the “Overlook”. The entire property is yours on wedding day.
The River Barn is just a 5-minute drive from the main resort with complimentary shuttles provided. The resort offers everything your guests could want.
Our wedding planner is available upon request for site visits, which we do recommend.
The focal point of the main resort is Rafters, a large open-air Pavilion with views of the river.
Rafters Pavilion is available for small, non-private weddings up to 40 persons during June through Labour Day and Large weddings up to 160 are available in May and September.
Ceremony options at Rafters are the beachfront at Wilderness Tours Resort and Sunset Point.
The attached application for a Rafters Wedding would be amended for large Spring or Fall weddings.
