The Arbors Events

The Arbors Events is a farm and woodland event destination set on a 112-acre tree farm in Cleveland, North Carolina. What began as a tree nursery in 2003 evolved into an event venue shaped by thousands of ornamental and shade trees, manicured lawns, majestic oaks, and perennial gardens spread across western Rowan County, near Lake Norman. The venue's primary event space, The Arbors, is a custom-built banquet facility constructed from stone, reclaimed barn wood, and cedar shakes. Its 4,700-square-foot heated and cooled interior centers on a grand fireplace and includes a full bar and catering prep area, while the adjacent outdoor spaces feature a wildflower field ceremony area, two fire pits, and a three-acre pond. A separate reception facility, The Lodge, adds 4,200 square feet of climate-controlled banquet space with a similar rustic character. Together, the property accommodates groups from 50 to more than 350 guests for weddings, corporate retreats, and community celebrations. An on-site guest house sleeps eight, allowing wedding parties to host the full weekend on the property.
