Your wedding venue is a place you’ll always be nostalgic for.
Here, you’ll think back to saying “I Do” in our restored wedding chapel. To unhurried dinners with nowhere to rush off to, your guests lingering long after the plates are cleared.
The chatter of your loved ones swapping stories by the fire, even after a long night of dancing. To the slow mornings on cabin porches, coffee in hand, still buzzing from the night before.
And every time you smell woodsmoke or sit under twinkling string lights, those memories will come rushing back.
At Sakanaga, we know a thing or two about creating moments like that.
This property has been holding people’s favorite memories since the ‘60s. Will yours be next?

Vendors & Local Referrals
We don't try to do everything ourselves and we don't want to. We’re proud to be part of the Upstate South Carolina community, and we love connecting our couples with talented local vendors who know how to bring a celebration to life.
Rather than locking you into a required list of in-house services, we give couples the flexibility to choose the team that feels right for them. Over the years, we’ve built relationships with caterers, planners, florists, photographers, and other wedding pros we genuinely trust.
We bring the space and amenities, they bring their expertise, and you get the best possible team you could ask for.
