We had our daughter’s wedding here at Onset Bay Center. Throughout all of this, the staff was incredible. The setting is just beautiful. The hall is wonderful for a wedding under 100 people.

A fiftieth anniversary celebration with 70 guests. The site is gorgeous with a spectacular view. It is well appointed. Everything we needed was easily accessible. Staff were accommodating and a an absolute pleasure to deal with. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed if they make this choice.
