“Sunset Watersports was a pleasure to work with and delivered at the highest level for us! Their sales team was very responsive and easy to work with. They accommodated every request we had and didn't hesitate to go with the flow on the few last minute changes we had. A sunset sail with them provided the beautiful scenery, laid back atmosphere, and classy vibes that we wanted for our wedding reception. The crew, dj, and bartenders were all friendly and very helpful. I would recommend doing a sunset sail with Sunset Watersports to everyone, and think that it makes the perfect reception venue for someone looking to do something less traditional. Our guests had a blast and the sunset was impossible to beat.”

“Crane Point completely exceeded our venue expectations. Not only was the house perfect for getting ready the day of, but our guests were blown away by the privacy, vibe, and oceanfront scenery. Our DJ was set up on the balcony overlooking the courtyard which made for the perfect party and dancing space. We got married at the point, and guests were stunned by the view. There is ample bathroom space, and we were able to tackle different memorable parts of the wedding in separate spaces. The cake cutting was done in the dining room with a picture window backdrop, while photos were done on the bridge and across from the fire pit. The bar provided a separate space from the dance floor also giving guests plenty of options to mingle. I could not have asked for a better venue. Our guests are still telling us it was the best wedding they've ever been to.”
