Best Weekend Ever
I couldn’t imagine getting married anywhere else than the Bear Mountain Inn. It is a very magical place and the owners and employees made you feel like apart of the family. Everything is so clean and they make you feel really special the entire time! My close friends and family got to spend 3 full days with us as we celebrated the best weekend of our lives! I highly recommend this venue, 10/10!
Best Wedding Ever
We live out of state and booked Bear Mountain site unseen (we did a FaceTime tour). It was the best decision. When we showed up we were star struck by its beauty of the inn and staff. The wedding was better than anything I could imagine. The staff thought of everything from flowers for the rehearsal to laminating our table numbers. Also the food was 12/10 amazing!!!!!! The staff even went out of their way to make sure we had one of dessert in our room waiting for us after the wedding. I loved how our wedding party and family were all able to stay at the inn and spend the weekend together not just the day. Not to mention the indoor and outdoor spaces for the wedding. The owner was so laid back and involved every step of the way in the planning process. They made great suggestions for other needs like make up and flowered and dj and photos. They even suggested local activities like hikes and breweries.
Best Venue Ever
We had our wedding at Bear Mountain Inn Barn and couldn't have been happier with our choice! Jerica and her team were prompt, personable, and down-to-earth in all of our communications leading up to the big day. They made us feel like old friends helping to plan the event. The venue itself has a wonderful outdoorsy, clean, summer camp vibe that perfectly matched what we envisioned. Jerica was there every step of the way, making sure we felt supported. Jessica and Nick were so involved and helpful, they truly made our wedding everything we imagined and more! Having the whole property to ourselves all weekend with our friends and family was the best decision we made. It allowed everyone to relax and gave a private summer camp feel that set the perfect tone. If you're looking for a venue where you feel taken care of by staff who become like friends, we can't recommend Bear Mountain highly enough!

The Orgo family is warm and welcoming. They shared their slice of heaven with our approximate 150 loved ones! Their team is caring and compassionate. The detail’s throughout our stay were beautifully planned. Jerica - our coordinator was exactly what we needed. She took charge, calmed our nerves and didn’t let us down. The wedding was exquisite. The venue was absolutely gorgeous, homey, chic and remarkably clean. We absolutely loved our wedding and would do it again in the same place in a heart beat. Any issues that came up during our timeline - Bear Mountain Staff managed with a smile. Thank you for hosting our wonderful and unforgettable event! BMI will always have our hearts!
