The Park Lodge at Terry Trueblood Overview

The Park Lodge at Terry Trueblood Recreation Center, located on the outskirts of Iowa City, is an ideal venue for a quiet, scenic wedding with beautiful views of the lake just beyond the doorstep. With 5,870 square feet of space, this venue accommodates up to 150 guests and is equipped with a full kitchen and patio that looks out onto the lake. It has a simple, modern interior design with floor-to-ceiling windows that allow the light to pour in. The venue is versatile and can adapt to any decoration and theme, from black-tie to Pinterest-inspired. There is also an option to host the ceremony on the banks of the lake, framed by blue skies and seemingly endless trees. Then, conveniently host your reception in the lodge, as you and your guests enjoy the romantic sunset that paints the sky a soft ombre of purples, pinks, and oranges.
