Their staff were consistently wonderful, offering invaluable help and prompt responses to all our needs.

I’m a recent bride who got married in May 2024. I cannot say enough great things about this venue! Desta and her husband (the owners) do a fantastic job keeping the property immaculate and beautiful and I love their can-do/relaxed attitude! My guests kept talking about how beautiful it was and the weather was amazing on our day! If you want the mountain/outdoor feel, this is the place for you! You will not regret it!
