I first visited this venue about two years ago as a guest at a friend's wedding and was taken back by how it was both a blend of rustic charm and updated amenities. The barns are beautiful, it has ample parking, love the grain bin bar, can't miss the car with the fire pit under the hood and they even have a playground for the kiddos! We are planning to renew our vows there next spring and can't wait! The owners keep making improvements each year and you can really tell.
