Discover the Magic of Loon Pond Lodge

Nothing, aside from perhaps the significance of the occasion itself, is more important than the setting where it takes place. Located on the edge of a sparkling pond in the heart of the South Shore, Loon Pond Lodge is more than just a venue—it’s a place where unforgettable moments are crafted from the ground up. Conveniently located near Cape Cod, Plymouth and not far from Boston and Providence, Loon Pond Lodge is a full-service destination with heart, sincerity, and even a state-of-the-art kitchen to match. Whether it’s a wedding, baby shower, graduation party or a corporate event, the picturesque location and the staff, committed to creating long-lasting memories, are truly unmatched. 

At Loon Pond Lodge, the motto is simple: Create your experience. If you dream of a whimsical waterfront ceremony beneath the gazebo, a sophisticated reception in their hall with exposed wooden-beamed vaulted ceilings, or a cozy night under twinkling lights by their fire pits with s’mores in hand, the team is available to make it happen for you. 

Weddings are at the heart of the lodge, and with a keen appreciation for details that matter, owner Tim Malinosky has created on-trend packages for couples looking to add their own personal style and elements of whimsy to their curated event. He shares, “I fully understand the importance of late-night bites after a night of dancing, so we have a fun add-on menu for guests that center around the tail end of an event.” 

This hidden gem offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and elegance, with panoramic views that make a picture-perfect backdrop for photo opportunities and pricing that is designed to encourage everyone to come see the magic for themselves. The South Shore’s best-kept secret—until now—offers guests a canvas to curate an event as timeless as their own story.
