The venue was absolutely breathtaking with beautiful backdrops for photos. I had my baby shower here and it was the perfect spot to have it. The owners and staff were very responsive and accommodating. They usually do weddings here but they were willing to work with us to have a baby shower here and it turned out so beautiful! The venue was very clean and they even allowed us to use the furniture and antique items they had on site. My family stayed at their on site Airbnb and they loved it. Such a clean and comfortable stay for them! Thank you so much for allowing us to host our baby shower here! I would recommend to anyone looking for a venue for any event.

I got married here recently and it was beautiful! It is very convenient having rooms on site to accomodate so many guests. You have to cater through the venue but their food is amazing. They use their own grass fed meats and were great about what food and drinks we wanted. While the venue does come with a few things like tables and chairs, you do have to pay to rent other items from them and a lot of the decoration will be DIY, but this can be a good thing if you want to personalize a lot of things! Owners are not too strict about things and are flexible. This can go both ways though - sometimes the planning was a bit difficult due to lack of communication with the venue. It would take a while to get answers, or they would forget some things I told them. Definitely recommend getting a day of planner to help since this is a large venue with lots of DIY and family around usually. Other than that though, everything turned out beautiful and guests were very happy with the views and rooms. They are reasonably priced and we were able to stay up late too! Perfect day :)
