Generous in scale. Personal in feeling.

The approximately 10,000-square-foot platform allows an event to unfold through arrival, cocktails, dinner, program, and departure while the water boundary keeps the experience contained and focused.

Each configuration is created for the host’s priorities rather than selected from a fixed package. Pricing, production, hospitality, and transportation are prepared by custom proposal.
