Our unique resort has our wedding venue located in the heart of our property and surrounding it are our cabins, bonfire pits, sandy beach, docks, and of course the iconic Marina Bar. We are located on Catfish lake where we have romantic sunsets and gorgeous lake views.
We can lean more elegant/up scale or more casual. Our resort offers the perfect middle ground for either style so we have had clients of all types enjoy us. Some people are looking for a highly stylized event and others are just looking for a up north wedding venue where they can cook out and enjoy the water. We have the perfect back drop for either vibe or a combination of the two.

"Navetta" is the Finnish word for barn, which is fitting because our event space features a newly constructed, two-story wedding barn. Northern Navetta sits on 30 acres that border the Ottawa National Forest and includes three ponds: Pond 1 features a dock and a bridge, the North Pond offers the forest as a stunning backdrop, and the Back Pond has a covered bridge. All are beautiful spots to say your vows! We also have a cozy cabin and a two-story pavilion with a skywalk connecting to the barn.
