Why It's a Local Favorite ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Can't wait to come back to Docksider Manor! I had 14 adults for a birthday weekend and everyone was in awe of this wonderful property. From the high-end finishes to the clubhouse with bar it was a fabulous venue. The lake along with the fire pit was the cherry on top. The team at Northern Living helped with deliveries and I even used Chef Lendell.
