Words cannot begin to describe how perfect Avon Hill was for our wedding! We had both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding on site and we had family and friends stay at the Lodge. Every guest was enthralled with the beautiful views that Avon Hill offers and they loved that it was so easy to go from the reception to their lodging. Sarah and Jocelyn were so wonderful to work with, accommodating with viewing the venue prior to the wedding and coming in early on Friday, and answering my many questions as an out-of-country bride. Jocelyn and her husband were so wonderful during our wedding weekend, especially when we had an issues with the air conditioning. They immediately had someone come fix it so our guests would be comfortable. They helped with parking for our guests and Jocelyn drove my husband and I around to the various locations on the property for our photos. I cannot recommend this venue enough to anyone looking for a ceremony and reception in a gorgeous location. We wanted an outdoor ceremony, unique photos, and the barn was the perfect backdrop for our reception. Definitely check this venue out! Thank you Avon Hill!

This venue is amazing. You have access to the entire camp - pavillion, dining hall, fire pits, lodges and cabins. We had about half of our guests spend the entire weekend at the camp with us. They even staffed the rock climbing wall for our guests Saturday morning before our wedding. There are so many options to make your event exactly what you want it, and the staff is so great and easy to work with. Best of all- the fees go towards sending special needs children to camp. Cannot recommend it enough!!
