Five Stars! Golden Hour Magic at Portage Country Club As a photographer with Astrid and Aria, I've had the distinct pleasure of capturing Ben and Emily's wedding at Portage Country Club, and it was truly a dream. From a photographer's perspective, this venue offers an unparalleled canvas for capturing timeless moments. First and foremost, the grounds are absolutely stunning. The meticulously maintained golf course provided a lush, green backdrop that perfectly complemented the warm summer day. The expansive views allowed for breathtaking wide shots, and the mature trees offered pockets of shade for intimate portraits. The real magic, however, happened during golden hour. The sunset at Portage Country Club was absolutely spectacular. The way the light filtered through the trees and illuminated the grounds was simply divine. I was able to capture some truly breathtaking portraits of Ben and Emily, bathed in that warm, golden glow. It was a photographer's dream come true. The indoor spaces were equally impressive. The elegant ballroom, with its classic decor and ample natural light, provided a sophisticated setting for the reception. The high ceilings and neutral tones allowed for flexibility in lighting and decor, ensuring that every shot was perfectly illuminated. From a logistical standpoint, the staff at Portage Country Club was exceptional. They were incredibly organized, attentive, and responsive to our needs. The seamless coordination allowed me to focus solely on capturing the moments, without any distractions. Ben and Emily's wedding was a beautiful celebration of love, and Portage Country Club provided the perfect setting for their special day. The combination of stunning grounds, breathtaking sunsets, and exceptional service made it an unforgettable experience for both the couple and their guests. I highly recommend Portage Country Club to any couple looking for a classic and elegant venue for their wedding. And for my fellow photographers, you won't find a more picturesque setting, especially during a warm summer evening. -Astrid and Aria Photography.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Portage Country Club’s golf course is simply exceptional! The layout is both challenging and rewarding, with greens that are near perfect—it’s clear the grounds crew takes pride in keeping everything in top-notch condition. Whether you're a seasoned golfer or just love to be out on the fairways, this course has something special for everyone. But it’s not just the golf that makes Portage stand out. The stunning patio is the perfect place to unwind after a round, offering beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere. The family pool is fantastic, always clean, and a fun spot for both kids and adults. The clay tennis courts are another highlight—meticulously maintained and ready for a great match anytime. What truly sets Portage apart, though, is the vibrant community. The staff is top-class, always friendly and attentive, and the members create an energetic, welcoming environment. The food is consistently delicious, and they’re always refreshing the menu to keep things exciting. Plus, the club hosts a variety of super fun events that cater to everyone’s tastes. As new members, we’ve been thoroughly impressed and can’t wait for many more years of enjoyment here!

I’ve attended several events (from fund raisers to social gatherings) and professionally photographed (Tom Forrest Photography) many weddings at Portage Country Club. Staff members have always provided excellence service to guests and vendors. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the interior (some areas recently updated) is classy and timeless. The Executive Chef and culinary team are excellent. I highly recommend Portage Country club for friends, family and clients.

Beautiful venue. Visited here for a continuing education dinner and lecture. Staff was friendly and helpful. The food was exceptional, and the delicious chocolate mousse dessert was something I would dream about.

Private country club. My family had membership when I was a kid. Visiting 40 years later for funeral reception, and it all seems pretty much the same.
