The community is full of rich history, unique architecture, and an abundance of nature. For bridge enthusiasts, you can start with the closest of the 12 covered bridges.

Historical Covered Bridges

Bucks County was one of the first places in the U.S. to pioneer covered bridges in the 19th century to help trade goods from the mills. While there were once 50 bridges, 12 unique constructions for capturing photos remain.

With a gorgeous red finish, South Perkasie was built with pine, oak, and hemlock. It’s approximately 12 minutes away from The Lake House Inn after relocating to Lenape Park.

Inspired by the log cabin style, Cabin Run features a red and white color scheme. Be careful of traffic if you take photos on the main road.

A 20-minute drive from our property, Knecht’s Covered Bridge crosses over Durham Creek. The 1870 structure also offers a two-tone look, so couples can choose Cabin Run or Knecht’s for the Pennsylvanian wedding photos.

Situated above the Delaware Canal, Uhlerstown Covered Bridge was named after Michael Uhler, who founded Uhlerstown. The bridge was recently renovated, and most of the town has maintained its historic charm with a schoolhouse, general store, and hotel.

Many other covered bridges, like Pine Valley, Schofield Ford, and Van Sant, are located further away from our venue at around 40 minutes. However, they are beautiful scenes for engagement shoots.
