- Patricia Neath13/05/2024everything was just so beautifuleverything was just so beautifulI attended a wedding on September 2/23 and everything was just so beautiful. The grounds were very well maintained and it was the perfect setting for spectacular pictures. There was lots of open space to roam around and visit with other guests. The layout upstairs in the barn for the table seating with those back doors open was breathtaking. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding.

- Christian Smit13/05/2024we had everythingwe had everythingRight from the beginning Chelsea was very easy to deal with. She answered all of our questions and fit us in for a tour of the venue whenever it worked for us. Leading up to our wedding, she was constantly checking in to ensure we had everything and that the venue was set up to our desire. On the day of the wedding Deb and Fraser went above and beyond to ensure our day went off seamlessly. Right from the beginning Chelsea was very easy to deal with.
