    Shannan S.Dec 23, 2023

    We had an intimate 26 person wedding at Ocean House and it was perfect. Kara was a dream to work with - organized, flexible, and helpful every step of the way. The day of started misting and she quickly worked with us on an alternate covered location that was equally as beautiful. The food, service, views, experience, and more was flawless. The Ocean House will always be a special place for us - and we will return for years to come.

  • Ocean view and a dream team to work with!
