    I cannot recommend this venue highly enough! From the very start, the owner and her team went above and beyond to make planning stress-free and enjoyable. They were always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and make sure every detail was perfectly executed. Their support and calm presence made a huge difference, especially when I was nervous on the big day. The décor closet was such a wonderful bonus, and when I brought in my own items, they decorated the barn beautifully — it looked exactly like I had imagined. They also provided excellent vendor recommendations, which made planning even easier and more seamless. Our fall wedding was truly magical. The venue is breathtaking, and our guests loved exploring the grounds and meeting the animals. Every single aspect of the day ran flawlessly, and I could not have asked for a more perfect experience. If you’re looking for a venue that is beautiful, well-managed, and run by a team that genuinely cares about making your day unforgettable, this is it. We are so grateful to the owner and her team for creating memories we will treasure forever — you will not be disappointed!

    When you think of everything your wedding could be thus venue exceeds that. When we entered this venue me and my husband knew it was "the one". The space, the owner, what's included for the pricepoint....well it was everything and more. Once our wedding day came it was seamless. We had a little rain in the morning, but that staff wiped everything down and we were able to have out ceremony on the overlook. Jamie (the owner) kept us on schedule and worked behind the scenes with her staff and my vendors to make sure everything was a dream come true. I cant recommend this venue enough and I wouldn't change a thing.
