My mom booked Cranberry Mountain Events for my baby shower. We used the indoor building and it was beautiful. It was a safe place for the kids to run around. We had access to the catering kitchen because my mom did all her own food prep and was able to use the refrigerators and counters. Was clean and easy! I had about 30 people and we had a large center table and everyone could sit together. The space is big but it was cozy and it didn't feel awkward for our smaller event!

It is one week ago today that we experienced the most magical vow renewal event at the Chebeague Island Inn! This would have never happened if it wasn't for Caitlyn, Glen, Matt, and Jess at the Inn. Every detail, every morsel of food, to the timing and atmosphere was simply superb!! The rooms are beautifully quaint and cozy. The views were magnificent. And, ohhhh the sunset!!! The precision in all the details was key because it was a surprise kept for a very long time. I can not express in words how grateful we are. Our weekend could not have been more perfect! We are still talking about it and how your staff made us feel like family. They really went above and beyond my expectations!! And did I mention the views!!??

Gorgeous view of the bay and portland harbor. It truly was a magical spot and I appreciated being able to customize my decor and use of outdoor space as needed. The other nice thing about this venue is they didn’t require us to use specific vendors, but their recommended ones ended up being the best around.

Luke's was the perfect spot to welcome our guests from around the country to Maine! The views are incredible (it's one of the few event spots in Portland that is actually on the water) and the lobster rolls were raved about by all of our guests! Rita and the team were amazing to work with and made sure everything went exactly as planned. They had plenty of non-seafood options for us too and the drink menu was perfect with Maine beers and super fun cocktails. We were on the gorgeous upstairs deck and bar area which made for guests to mingle and meet each other. A big highlight was when one of the boats hauled in two tunas in view of the party, people were talking about it all weekend long! The welcome party was definitely one of the best parts of our entire weekend.
