This was the first venue I called at the beginning of my wedding planning, and Cathy Buchanan was so friendly and helpful from the first moment. Anyone would be lucky to have their... wedding here. The genius of a built-for-purpose wedding venue only dawns on you after you have looked at lots of other venues that each have their own unique set of challenges. This venue is perfect in every way. The owner thought of everything so that the annoyances of other venues do not exist here, but you still get a beautiful, unique, memorable setting for your wedding.
The indoor venues are beautiful. I was first attracted to the feeling of a large “blank slate” that it gives, but when you are in there you notice the beautiful details throughout. The light fixtures are stunning and not cheesy the way most wedding venue chandeliers are. The bright, clean feel of the space means you can go rustic if you want to, but you aren’t forced into it by the space like so many other venues in the High Country. The quilts on the walls are gorgeous and they are made by the owner! Our caterer even mentioned loving the venue because of the catering kitchen and the dedicated side entrance. My absolute favorite feature of this venue is, funny enough, the bathrooms and the dressing rooms. They are really, truly, actually wheelchair accessible. They are private and abundant (a private bathroom for the bride, a private bathroom for the groom, a multi-stall women’s room, a multi-stall men’s room, and a separate family/huge wheelchair-accessible single-occupancy bathroom!). If you have loved ones who are in a wheelchair don’t discount how important this all is.
Of course, the best parts of the venue are the views and the grounds, but these parts speak for themselves.
