Our Venue
The Barn at Higgins Lake is on 13 commercial acres, tucked away next to a beautiful large pond. We are a quick five minute drive to South Higgins Lake State Park and Houghton Lake in Northern Michigan. The barn is 5K sq. ft. with chandeliers, hanging fairy lights, bar, restrooms and heat/air. The venue includes your choice of arbors, custom farm tables, round tables, white pews for the ceremony room, white chiavari chairs for both the reception room and the garden area.

The bonfire area adds a special up north vibe and is a great addition for your s’mores bar. Our bridal suite and groom’s room are both to be a hit for the wedding party while adding style and luxury for your wedding weekend. The prep kitchen offers plenty of room with a baker‘s rack, refrigerator/freezer, kitchen utensils and tables. We are happy to provide you with complimentary decor in hopes to make your special day easier.
