About this venue
In one word our venue is "authentic". Our beautiful property is the perfect spot to host your special day. From our hand-hewn beams to the wide plank barn floor we offer an authentic rustic experience. We have given new life to many of the original features of the property. Our pastures (still actively farmed) now provide the perfect backdrop for outdoor ceremonies/photos. We are 100% family owned & operated. We hope by the end of your event you feel at home and like family too!
