Our Story

Mark and Trina Bender have shared 32 years of life together and are proud parents to Chancey, Tristin, and Marina. In 2015, they purchased a long-abandoned pay lake with a vision to restore it into a place for people to gather and celebrate. What began as a passion project grew into a beautifully transformed venue, now hosting weddings and special events. Today, it stands as a meaningful setting where love, milestones, and memories are made.

As a family rooted in connection and community, we’ve always cherished creating spaces where memories are made.
