About The Lodge at Mount Rivers
If you're looking for a wedding venue that feels like a total escape into nature — but still within reach of the Hunter Valley — The Lodge at Mount Rivers ticks all the boxes. It’s about 45 minutes from the wine region, but feels a world away, tucked into 200 acres of rugged mountain scenery right by the Peterson River.
It’s perfect for couples dreaming of a laid-back, outdoor celebration with that “no rush, no rules” kind of energy. There’s no noise curfew, so the party can roll on as long as you like, and the expansive lawns give you heaps of flexibility to set things up however you want — especially if you’re going for a marquee wedding.
Venue hire includes the 6-bedroom homestead for a two-night stay, which is ideal for the bridal party or close family. And if you've got extra guests, they can camp or glamp on-site, turning your wedding into a full weekend getaway.
There’s also plenty to do while you’re there — swimming holes, kayaking, fishing, or just wandering the bike, hiking, and horse trails that criss-cross the hills. Oh, and it’s pet-friendly, so your furry friend can be part of the big day too.
If your vibe is more adventurous, DIY, and nature-loving, and you want a space where you can really make the celebration your own, The Lodge at Mount Rivers delivers big time. It’s private, beautiful, and packed with all the ingredients for a memorable wedding weekend.
