WATER'S EDGE
Timeless Elegance at Water's Edge
Set at the water's edge overlooking one of Basil Place's signature waterfront settings, our 6,000-square-foot permanent Sailcloth Tent introduces a new level of elegance to celebrations at the estate. Thoughtfully designed as a seamless extension of the property, it combines the beauty of an open-air reception with the comfort, convenience, and sophistication of a dedicated event venue.
​
With soaring sailcloth peaks, breathtaking waterfront views, and room for up to 250 guests, the tent creates an unforgettable setting from cocktail hour through the last dance. Natural light fills the space throughout the day, while sunset reflections across the water and elegant evening lighting transform the atmosphere into something truly extraordinary.

Available with every Basil Place wedding experience, the Sailcloth Tent offers couples the opportunity to enhance their celebration with one of the estate's most distinctive gathering spaces. Whether hosting a single-day reception or incorporating multiple event spaces throughout an unforgettable wedding weekend, it delivers a luxury experience designed to leave a lasting impression on every guest.
