Lookout Point received an email from the magazine letting us know about this article. It is really great that the environmental efforts of Lookout Point are being recognized around the world. We really appreciate this article and will continue our environmental efforts!!

One of mother nature’s unexpected “gifts” is a water fountain “pond” filled with brim. I’m not a fisherperson, but it’s those lake fish with a blue spot on their sides. There’s probably 100 brim in the pond, plus the 30 goldfish. We are continually inviting guests to fish the brim, and release them the lake—-or take them home in their own cooler. I’m not cooking the fish!
Today our wonderful guest Raymond enjoyed some fishing in our pond, and caught 3 brim in a short amount of time. Yeah! The one goldfish snagged was happily released to swim with his friends.
If you want some easy fishing, come on to Lookout Point. Pull up a chair, sit in the shade, and fish away. Sip on a glass of wine or beer, and RELAX.
I haven’t figured out how to have a fishing tournament in our pond. Any ideas?

It was a joy to be a part of the Jennings wedding last Sunday at Lookout Point. Katie looked gorgeous in her gown as she walked down the aisle on her father’s arm. Her daughter Analee walked in front with her miniature bouquet. She was a beautiful little angel!
Katie’s brother played the guitar as Katie walked down the aisle. The ceremony took place in the garden near the waterfall. The couple and Analee participated in a sand union using white, black and pink sand. The sand unity was just lovely, and the perfect touch for their wedding.
Congratulations Katie and Joshua on your marriage! Best wishes for a long happy life together!

On June 1, 2009 Nancy and David exchanged vows in the gardens of Lookout Point Lakeside Inn. It was an honor to officiate at their wedding, and share in this high holy moment! Following is an excerpt from Nancy:
Just wanted to tell you how very pleased and happy we were with our wedding at your beautiful inn last week! We couldnt have asked for a more lovely setting to begin our life together. The grounds are so beautifully maintained and the romantic Hot Springs Suite was a dream come true. We will both remember the extremely touching ceremony for the rest of our lives.
I wanted Ray to see how well he did snapping photos. These are just a few of them and they will all be treasured forever.
Words can’t express how appreciative we are for the kindness and grace shown to us by you, Ray and members of your staff.
Thank you again, Nancy
We wish all the best to David and Nancy!
