The Champlain Room & Terrace

Our newest event space, featuring a spectacular view of Lake Champlain and the Adirondack mountains, is the ideal venue for a variety of special events and celebrations. The space rental fee includes the use of tables (round, banquet, or classroom-style), chairs, room setup/breakdown, state-of-the-art audio/visual equipment, and professional event staff support.

Much of this space is tented, providing protection from direct sun and rain.  Some customized Terrace setups may require a nominal setup fee.
