Reminiscent of the more formal terraced gardens of historic estates in the area, the amphitheater cradles the main stage. The terraced design provides both a dramatic setting for the bridal party’s approach, as well as a clear view of the ceremony for all participants.

Treska, for whom the café here is named, was the matriarch of the extended family who have served as the stewards of this magical property since 1985. The Garden Pavilion, (whose steel beams began life 30 years ago as the frame for Treska's original glass greenhouse near by) overlooks the expansive amphitheater and the lake. Seating up to 200 people, and cooled by water's edge breezes, its elevated stage provides the back drop for both meaningful toasts, and the music to dance away the evening.

For more intimate groups, The Overlook is defined by a circle of ancient pines that opens to a sunset view of the lake. The cantilevered semi-circular deck overlooking the water, is big enough for the whole wedding party, as well as musicians for the procession. Close to each of the other venue choices, the connection paths become part of the ceremony

Two huge white oaks... each well over three hundred years old… define the corners of the west lawn, and add a welcoming sense of place. Along with the wrap around porch at Treska's, they provide ample shade on a summer's evening. With views of the water in all directions, and the sounds of a delicate fountain in the back ground, the west lawn is a great place for winding down after the family's arrival

Tables set in the trellised promenade through the center of the garden… with its garlands of flowers, ornamental vegetables, and climbing vines… or the garden courtyard under a huge magnificent oak create unique dining settings. Suitable for welcoming guests for a colorful cocktail hour, or for enjoying a table-to-garden rehearsal dinner, it is a great place to start weaving two families together.
