# The pavilion

Source page: https://carsonriverresorts.com/pavilion

Next to the store

Open ground under the pines with long tables and string lights strung tree to tree, a large covered side patio beside it with three ways to cook, and a lawn lit for the evening — next to the general store, open to anyone staying or visiting who wants somewhere to eat. It seats dinners of fifty and more, and it is where the resort gathers: the Fourth, the bands, Phil's community dinners.

## What it is

The pavilion is open ground under the pines — long tables, string lights
strung from tree to tree, the lawn beside it, and nothing over any of it
but the branches. Beside it stands a large covered side patio with a
fish-cleaning station: bring the day's catch up from the river and clean
it here. Three ways to cook: a Blackstone flat-top, a Traeger pellet
grill, and an open grill spot, with a fire pit for after. Power, water
and lighting are in; the restrooms are out back; the general store is
next door for ice, firewood and whatever you forgot.

It is open to anyone staying or visiting who wants a place to sit and eat
— a riverside site's dinner, a snack off the porch, a fisherman's lunch.
Nobody has to ask.

## What happens here

This is where the resort gathers. The Fourth of July — the weigh-in, the
bands, the barbecue and the smoked fish — fills the tables, and Phil hosts
community dinners and events through the year; [the calendar](/events)
carries the ones with dates. The carved *Since 1920* slab stands beside
the pavilion.

## Weddings and private events

The pavilion, the patio and the lit lawn take dinners and events of fifty
or more — the exact occupancy for what you have in mind is available on
request. It is available for weddings and private events; call
[(530) 694-2229](tel:+15306942229) to talk through dates, the
cabins and sites for your guests, and what you would want set up.
