Erica's communication was quick and resourceful, she was attentive and cooperative throughout the entire planning process. The quality of the wedding barn was truly romantic, captivating, and gorgeous - Duane and Kitty have transformed the venue into a space that felt straight out of a fairytale. Noah made sure all the events of the day flowed seamlessly, the staff were incredibly accommodating of our needs, and ensured the entire experience was pleasant for us and our guests.

The Haven at Cedar Grove 

4.7

Logan, OH
  • Up to 280 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $10,000

In 2016, Cedar Grove’s owners, Kevin and Julie Claus, were sitting on the porch of Stillwater Lodge with some friends, gazing upon their 65-acre property. With 6 cabins and 2 lodges running smoothly, it was time to start planning for their next adventure. They talked about their 3 children growing up on the property, and reminisced on how so many milestones were celebrated. With all their kids growing up, they talked about them finding love and how wonderful it would be to see them married on the property where they shared so many memories. That was the day the dream began! Kevin quickly grabbed a napkin and feverishly started scribbling sketches of a large lodge that could hold all of their friends and family, celebrating the futures of their children. In true Claus fashion, they did not let this vision pass them by, and got to working on the lodge right away.

The Haven Crew did such a great job helping us plan our wedding & helped us keep it running smoothly day-of. They answered all of our many questions during the planning process. The venue itself is beautiful, too! Even though it rained, and we had to have our ceremony under their covered patio, the surroundings were still gorgeous! We and some of our family were even able to rent cabins on the property, and those were beautiful and cozy as well.
