Ramble Creek is not only incredibly beautiful, it also has the best staff you could possibly find. The team here made my wedding planning virtually stress-free, and they made the actual day an absolute dream! AND for the vast amount of services they cover (floral, catering, cakes, officiants, and more) it is remarkably affordable. As a queer couple, my wife and I were anxious about finding a venue and other vendors in Tennessee that would happily meet our wants and needs, and this team did so with true joy and support. We are so thankful to have had such a positive and uplifting experience. You will truly not be able to find a better venue in all of Tennessee (and honestly probably the whole country)! I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Dream Venue - Peaceful, Unique, Beyond Gorgeous, Awesome Hachland Hill was an incredible venue for our February wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, easy, and they reached out to us frequently via email, text, and phone to check in as we planned our big day. When we booked them 4 years in advance, they stayed in close contact to ensure everything was on track. Even though it was a bit chilly for our winter wedding, they brought in heaters to keep our guests comfortable. The venue itself was even more amazing in person than the photos had suggested - the space was beautiful and the service was impeccable. The entire Hachland Hill team went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly special. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend them to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding experience. We had our Winter Wedding here on 2/29/2024 - beyond blessed with our experience! We planned and booked this venue four years prior and we had the first winter wedding. We visited a few times over the years in all seasons and everytime the venue was so well maintained and a showpiece. The staff was awesome and understanding of adjustments (heaters...lol) Menu choices and actual food was YUMMY... we got the cookbook 'The Hachland Hill Cookbook: The Recipes & Legacy of Phila Hach' and it was so unique to see the stories and recipes alive in the venue. We rented the Spring Creek Inn and was happy to have that as an oasis from the planning and doings that goes into the wedding day. Yes the decor was dated, but that is exactly what I expected with a rustic venue with cabin/wood/historical features. The nature and scenic backdrop that is always surrounding you is magical. My groom/hubby is a hunter at heart... I jokingly said I put him in the middle of a deer stand with all the fixings of a wedding for me. I truly can't say enough about this venue... Hachland Hill made our wedding day perfect and memorable. 10/10 recommend **Note: when looking at pics remember that it was a February wedding... the place is even more stunning is Spring, Summer, and Fall**
