Shawnee County Parks and Recreation’s Lake Shawnee page, covering the park around 3916 SE Memory Point in Topeka, states that shelter houses at Lake Shawnee are available for rent and links to a shelter price list. The page does not name Shelter House #3 individually or describe it apart from the park’s other shelters.

The page does not use the word wedding or describe a wedding package, and it does not state capacity, weather backup, catering or alcohol rules, accessibility, lodging, or included equipment for this specific shelter; shelters are open-air pavilions rather than enclosed buildings. Contact is (785) 251-6800 or pr_info@snco.us, and an online rental system is referenced.

Ask Shawnee County Parks and Recreation for Shelter House #3’s specific guest capacity, rental price, and rain-contingency policy.
