Shining Tides

Shining Tides is a unique and historic venue located on the picturesque Mattapoisett Harbor in Massachusetts. We specialize in crafting unforgettable events, from weddings and celebrations to corporate functions and private gatherings.

A Rich History

Our story begins in 1887 when Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. King transformed a summer house on the harbor into "The Reservation." Throughout the years, the property evolved, serving as a celebrated summer inn, a youth camp, and finally, in 2010, an exclusive wedding and event venue.
