When we drove in to Spano Lake, we knew. The woods and path suddenly opened up to a fairy tale setting. On our wedding day, the sun shown bright, the trees sparkled with color and the air vibrated magic. Every day in between, the team at Spano Lake was there to help us with the details. And when the unexpected things happened, as they do during weddings, Jackie and Danny were right there with us. Our wedding day was a beautiful start to our wonderful new life together and we were so happy with our choice to start off at the Rosemary!

We had our wedding at The Barracks Inn last month (Labor Day 2022). What a beautiful venue, the view can't be beat, the reception/dinner room is beautiful, the food was wonderful. And the drinks were perfect! The owner was so accommodating with all of my quirky plans - never complained, listened to what we wanted and made it all happen. We are picky so this is really something. The sound system is great - really over the top from what you would normally expect. Dancing on the beautiful deck that sits out on the water was heaven. We could have danced until dawn. I heartily recommend this venue and Kim (the owner) as "the" place to have your wedding, anniversary party, birthday party, or just a party party! You will be very pleased with the whole process.
