About the Bonnie View Inn

Established in the scenic Haliburton Highlands back in 1924, the Bonnie View Inn has become a longstanding symbol of relaxation and comfort. As a family-owned establishment, we offer 26 comfortable accommodations, blending the cozy vibe of a country inn with the amenities of a larger resort. Bonnie View Inn holds a timeless charm, with a rich history of hosting weddings dating back to 1945. We offer wedding space in the spring, fall and winter months but do not host weddings in July or August. In most cases, and to ensure exclusivity for the weekend - we require that you book all of the rooms on the property for both the Friday and Saturday night. While filling the inn may seem difficult to do, we promise you that it easier than you think! Who doesn’t want to pair up a wedding with a weekend getaway?

Facilities and capacity

The Bonnie View Inn dining room is available to seat 120 guests total. However, other spaces such as the lounge and screened porch can seat 20 and 15 guests, respectively. You also have the option to have a covered outdoor reception as it has a leveled off space to set up a tent overlooking the lake.

Services offered

We have designed three distinct packages for your consideration, each complemented by a range of supplementary options and upgrades. Experience has shown that these packages are the ones most frequently preferred and that the package add-ons and extras allow you to tailor your package according to your specific preferences.

Cuisine

Indulge in a culinary journey orchestrated by Chef Dave at the heart of Bonnie View Inn, where his culinary expertise transforms weddings into unforgettable experiences. With a flair for culinary magic, Chef Dave not only curates exquisite menus but also offers a personalized touch, accommodating specific dietary needs with finesse.

Accommodation

Our property can host a maximum of 105 guests across various accommodations. However, for optimal comfort, we recommend a party size of around 80 guests. If you have additional guests in need of accommodation, we can provide suggestions for overflow options and assist in coordinating transportation on the night of the wedding. As part of our wedding packages, we do have minimum accommodation revenue requirements.

Our seasoned team, steeped in years of expertise and dedication, is primed to transform your wedding day into an unforgettable masterpiece. With a wealth of experience in orchestrating seamless weddings, we understand that every detail matters. From the initial consultation to the grand finale, our team's commitment to precision and excellence ensures that your vision becomes a breathtaking reality. We pride ourselves on crafting moments that resonate for a lifetime, and with our proven track record of creating dream weddings, your special day is guaranteed to be nothing short of perfect.

Perfect venue! The staff were amazing and the food was incredible. Easy planning with Andrea, she had so many great ideas. I would do it all over again and recommend this venue every chance I get. My guest still talk about how amazing everything was. A weekend wedding getaway is a great way to spend this special day with family and friends! We would do it all over again!

I wouldn't have changed a thing about my wedding weekend! The Bonnie View Inn is beautiful. The staff are professionals in everyway, but personable and really caring. You get the sense that they are just as excited as you are! All weekend I felt like I was in good hands. They have truly mastered the elegant, personalized, and FUN wedding I wanted to have!

Amazing Wedding Venue

We thoroughly enjoyed our time before and during our wedding weekend working with the Bonnieview Inn. When we had questions before the wedding we always had prompt and helpful responses from staff. The thing that we enjoyed the most when it came to the actual wedding weekend was that we were able to arrive Friday afternoon and didn't have anything to worry about setting anything up for the rest of the weekend. The Bonnieview provided a barbecue with bar service on Friday night not only for the out-of-town guests we had staying at the Inn but also those that were local and still wanted to visit with family. The rooms are spacious, especially the cabins where a lot of larger families or groups were staying. The Day of the wedding staff set up everything that we had brought for decorations and made sure that everything was done. It was really nice knowing that I could get ready without having to worry about any of it. We had a number of guests cancel last minute and Andrea worked with me to rearrange seating and make sure that she was organized to make everything run smoothly. We would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a rustic location with a lot to offer!

Bonnieview was a great venue to host our wedding. The day was just beautiful and the scenery was an incredible backdrop for our day. All of our guests were able to stay the weekend which was a bonus because we didnt have to worry about anyone having to drive. The staff at the resort was just amazing and did everything they could to make our day perfect. The food is incredible and our guests haven't stopped raving about it.

Andrea poured her heart in to making our wedding perfect. The venue is beautiful, the food is beyond amazing and I am still hearing praise for our wedding over 3 years later. The Bonnie View Inn was a perfect venue! Andrea took the time to know what I wanted and when I saw the reception area I cried it was so perfect. It was a relaxing and wonderful weekend that we will never forget.
