"Fantastic experience with my daughter’s wedding on Easter weekend! Debbie and her staff of four servers where amazing. We were the first outdoor wedding using the newly acquired back yard area with a brand new fenced in area. They thought of everything and made the day run so smoothly. They offered solutions for our cross we brought and the foot washing ceremony area. Their packages included set-up/tear-down, tables/chairs, linens and dishes which other facilities we looked at did not include. We had 95 in attendance comfortably with the ceremony on the lawn and the reception indoors spilling out onto the front porch and side patio. Debbie had all the tables inside and out dressed, all we did was add some tea party decor to the tables along with minimal flowers as not to take away from the beautiful house. Our music person was able to use the indoor speaker system from his iPhone while we brought our own speaker system for the ceremony out on the lawn. Parking was easy with the gravel parking lot adjacent to the backyard. Our caterer and some friends brought in food and Debbie’s staff made sure our buffet table was full and drink areas maintained during the event. Again I can’t say enough about our wonderful experience and the price was extremely reasonable compared to other facilities."

"My niece’s wedding was here on January 11, ,2025 during a Polar Vortex. The staff never wavered. They worked diligently to make this beautiful white wedding absolutely perfect. If you were in the area or even close to this beautiful place, I highly recommend it. This is a five star group. Top tier all the way! Debbie and Diane are the A team."
