A sunny lake surrounded by trees

A weekend worth remembering

Meet us
by the lake.

Choconfest is a few days of good food, loud laughs, and the kind of togetherness that stays with you.

I'm in

A little context

It started with
one fire.

A few friends, a borrowed grill, and a lake that made everyone stay a little longer. Choconfest grew from an excuse to get together into a tradition we protect every summer.

There is no dress code, no schedule to keep, and no pressure to be anything other than present. Bring a dish, bring a story, bring someone who makes you laugh. We'll take care of the rest.
