Fairfield County's waterfront venue.
A restored mill on the Bridgeport waterfront, minutes from Fairfield and under thirty from Westport. Celebrations for 50 to 500, on the water.
Fairfield County has plenty of ballrooms. It has one Knowlton.
Timber beams in the galleries, steel beams and garage doors in the Boathouse, a canopy of string light, and the sunset going gold over the Pequonnock River behind it. A room that already feels like an occasion before the first guest arrives.
Three rooms, or the whole building.
Book a single gallery for something intimate, or take the entire waterfront, the Boathouse and both galleries, for the largest celebrations.
The Boathouse
Garage doors that open west over the river, a dance floor built for a packed room, and a string-light canopy overhead. The largest of the three.
