We had our wedding at Holiday Hill and we couldn’t recommend this venue enough to any couple! Dudley, Jesse and the entire Holiday Hill staff were amazing both during the planning process and on the day of. I must’ve sent about a billion messages back and forth with Jesse with changes and additions and he was always so friendly and accommodating with all my requests and questions. We also loved how DIY the venue was. We were able to bring in our own caterers which was a huge plus for us. We used Holiday Hills shuttle service as well which was a great addition with a lot of our guests staying at the nearby hotel. Our ceremony and cocktail hour was supposed to be outdoors but we had light rain on most of our wedding day. Thankfully we had the indoor option so everyone was able to stay warm and dry during the ceremony and reception and everything still looked just as beautiful! The venue itself is gorgeous and you would never even guess it was a camp if not for the playground, which actually made for some fun pictures! We can’t thank Holiday Hill and their staff enough for helping make our wedding day so special!

We held our wedding at Holiday Hill 9.24.22 & it was PERFECT!! We also rented the farmhouse Airbnb on property for the bridal party which was super spacious & a perfect place to relax & get ready. The grounds are beautiful & Jesse & the staff are so helpful, responsive & go the extra mile. It was the most perfect venue for our day!

Holiday Hill was the cheapest place that we could find that was still pretty and scenic, would let us do whatever we wanted food and booze-wise, and not too stuffy. They were so e...

asy to work with and Jesse, the day of guy handling everything, made everything run smoothly. It ended up being a boiling 95 degree May day (my worst nightmare), so we moved from the barn to the field for the ceremony. It wasn't an issue and went off without a hitch. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that isn't trying to spend almost 10k just on a venue!

Holiday hill is a beautiful, rustic and romantic venue spot. It was like a having a backyard wedding, but in a totally amazing backyard! They are flexible and give you plenty of ro...

om to make the wedding your own. It is important to note that you are really doing this on your own, there is no coordinator or anything, everything falls on the couple. But if you’re up for a challenge, our wedding came out amazing. The venue director wears many hats, weddings aren’t the only thing they do so he is tough to get a hold of. So if you are looking for something more professional, this might not be for you. Overall though, we are happy we chose Holiday Hill for our September wedding!
