With breathtaking ocean views and a cozy feel, the Banning House Lodge is perfect for small intimate weddings. There are several areas to gather at the Banning House including a lush trellised courtyard, two story library, sun room and stone patio that offers beautiful views of both harbors. The Lodge offers twelve sleeping rooms in the Main House, Cliff House, Carriage House and Crow’s Nest, each individually decorated and with a private bath. Some of the rooms accommodate up to four people. The entire lodge can be reserved for weddings or special occasions.
