Our September & October '25 weekends are fully booked! Currently taking reservations for 2025 & 2026. See our up-to-date availability here: www.sylvanridgefarm.com/availability.
At Sylvan Ridge, customization to each couple's taste and preferences isn't just allowed—it's encouraged. We include professional event coordination in every package, and can connect you to top-notch vendors, but you'll also have the option to go the DIY route and/or use vendors you already know and love. Best of all, with our weekend wedding package, instead of limited access within certain hours on set days, the property—barn, farmhouse, cottage, hot tub, pool, and grounds—is 100% yours for an entire four-day weekend, with lodging on-site for 16 guests and freedom to host your rehearsal dinner and any other side events at no extra charge! Stress is the last thing you need at the biggest event of your life, so at Sylvan Ridge Farm you get ample time to relax with your wedding party and prepare the space as you desire. Though we consider full-weekend weddings our specialty, we do also offer options for budget-friendly midweek weddings, typically on Tuesdays.
Historic and timelessly elegant, Sylvan Ridge Farm is perched on a wooded mountainside overlooking the pristine Delaware Valley. Our mid-19th C. farmhouse, cottage, and event barn have been transformed into a wholly unique venue with the design insights of revered architect Peter Bohlin and the unmatched skill of the Pennsylvania Amish. Guests enjoy total solitude on the secluded 193 acres, yet the farm is only 10 minutes away from Interstate 84 and historic Milford, PA, with easy access from New York City.
Sylvan Ridge Farm's event barn is one of a kind! In one sense it is traditional and historic, standing on the footprint of the original 1800s barn. Amish craftsmen from Lancaster County erected our new mortise & tenon timber frame, which incorporates the 14-foot-wide fireplace that survived the deterioration of the old barn. In another sense, the structure is fresh and innovative. It includes four modern restrooms, heat and air conditioning, a hydraulic elevator for wheelchair access between levels, and a 60-foot wall of windows looking out over the woodland landscape. Most unique of all? Ethically sourced, richly colored, supremely durable Brazilian hardwoods were used throughout the building! Whether dancing under the soaring rafters of the reception space or enjoying a drink in the rustic cocktail bar, at Sylvan Ridge Farm your guests will experience a barn venue like no other.

Booking Sylvan Ridge Farms as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made! From the moment we visited the property, we knew it was the perfect place for our big day. The breathtaking views, the beautiful barn, and the serene surroundings created a magical atmosphere that made our wedding feel like a dream.
What truly made our experience extraordinary, however, was Linnea, the owner. She went above and beyond in every possible way to ensure our wedding day was flawless. From the very first time we met, Linnea was incredibly warm, professional, and helpful. She offered so much valuable advice throughout the planning process and made sure every detail was taken care of.
Sylvan Ridge Farms itself is a stunning venue, and Linnea’s care and attention to detail made it even more special. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful or seamless experience. If you’re looking for a venue that offers both natural beauty and top-notch service, I highly recommend Sylvan Ridge Farms. And if you’re lucky enough to work with Linnea, know you’ll be in the best hands possible. Thank you, Linnea, for making our wedding day absolutely perfect! :)

Sylvan Ridge Farm is magical! This was the perfect venue for my husband and I. It is so cozy and intimate there and made for a beautiful getaway for our wedding weekend. Everything on-site was clean and in pristine condition. Their wedding coordinating team did a fantastic job coordinating all logistics with our vendors. It was the perfect sized space for our guests (123 total). We also were able to have a DJ and photo booth comfortably fit inside the barn with the dance floor space and large farm tables. We had so much fun, and our guests have continued to tell us how amazing and beautiful our special day was!

We had our wedding at Sylvan Ridge Farm in mid September this year. 2 years prior we had viewed the venue and knew immediately that this was the one for us. We signed two days later.
The setup is unique in that you have full property access for the full weekend. This wound up being as awesome as we thought it would be, for both us and our guests. No one had to go anywhere and we had plenty of time to setup and make any last second adjustments.
The venue was stunning and in our view needed minimal decorating which was a huge plus for us. We got many compliments throughout the weekend. We lucked out with amazing weather but no matter the conditions it was going to be a beautiful weekend.
You’ll be so happy that you’re not confined to a 4 or 5 hour time slot at a typical venue, and you have 3 full days to soak in everything with your friends and family, with what felt like complete freedom at Sylvan Ridge Farm.
Thank you to Linnea, David, and everyone else at the venue for their help throughout this process.

We fell in love with this venue the moment we drove up the road. My husband and I grew up in NJ, live in Brooklyn, and were looking for a venue that felt like a nature retreat while still being accessible for our friends and family. Milford is a great town just down the road and the hotels are so close too. Linnea and Alec were so communicative and helpful with the endless lists of questions we sent them. We cannot thank them enough for setting the stage for the weekend - and I'm just so impressed with how seamless and easy it felt to use their venue.
We were struck just by the beauty of the whole property. It's absolutely marvelous! We were surrounded by charming little bunnies and butterflies the whole weekend. We took advantage of the place for the whole weekend - a Friday night pizza truck party, multiple pool and hot tub hangouts, and a Sunday bagel brunch in the barn. Everybody was raving about the barn, farmhouse, and cottage. The sunset during the reception created a great atmosphere for our guests to congregate and enjoy the lawn. We felt right at home and it made our wedding so incredibly special.

My wife and I got married at Sylvan Ride Farm last weekend and although words can't really do it justice, what an absolutely incredible wedding venue!!!! It was one thing seeing it without decor (still stunning) but seeing it on our wedding day fully decorated with our stamp on it, i really couldn't believe just how amazing everything truly was! The venue is breathtaking, from the main reception barn to the lawn and lower level cocktail barn and the houses on the property. Such a special blend of rustic and modern, with unique touches all over the grounds including an amazing firepit area and pool. There is so much character at every turn, this place is a dream and a true gem! We knew within about 30 seconds of our visit to the property back in the fall that this was the right place for us, and we were proven to be 10000% right once our wedding arrived! In addition to the property, Linnea was such a pleasure to work with and was so accommodating, responsive, and professional to us. She really went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. She is super caring and respectful, and working with her the whole way through made our experience that much sweeter! Our wedding weekend was incredible and it wouldn't have been possible without Linnea and Sylvan Ridge Farm!!!!

We knew when we stepped onto the property of Sylvan Ridge Farm that it was something special and exactly what we were looking for. We didn’t want just one day, we wanted multiple days and all of our friends and family to be able to hang out before and after the wedding. SRF is a 4 day rental, and it’s so worth it if you want to make your wedding last a whole weekend.
The grounds are immaculate, the farmhouse/cottage/barn are beautiful, and the staff is so helpful with layouts. It’s a BYO/DIY venue but the bones they give you to work with are truly stunning… It’s hard to articulate how amazing this place is until you see it for yourself!
If you're not looking for a traditional ballroom, but still want something elegant and classy, this is your venue. If you’re into the idea of having 4 days to truly enjoy your wedding with your guests, this is your spot. If you want to have full control and customization on how your wedding goes down, THIS is your spot. If you don’t mind your friends and family raving about what an amazing place you picked for your wedding, THIS IS YOUR SPOT. Our families were actually so sad leaving this venue because it felt like a second home after our wedding weekend. Another bonus is the farmhouse can be rented as an airbnb on the off season so we can rent it for an anniversary party one day.
Other pros: LGBTQ+ friendly, dog friendly, month-of-event coordination included (SARA IS INCREDIBLE!!!), 15 guests can sleep on property, full customization of layout and how you want your day to go, preferred vendor list (half of our vendors came from their list and they were exceptional). They do weekday, as well as weekend, weddings and the town of Milford is such a charming place.
Finally, the owner Linnea was extremely responsive, upbeat, and detail-oriented throughout the whole process which made planning a dream. Sara Mack is the BEST wedding coordinator on the planet and made our whole weekend run so smoothly, plus she always had a cheerful smile and made us feel so welcomed and special!

Our wedding weekend at Sylvan Ridge Farm was nothing short of perfect! SRF was the first (and only) venue that we toured for our wedding - we knew from the start that this was the place. Milford is our hometown and having our wedding where we met and grew up made the day all the more special! Having the venue all to ourselves from Friday to Monday was so unique; it allowed us to extend the celebrations and make the most of having our family and friends all in the same place. Another incredible aspect of a SRF wedding is that you get to fully make it your own - choosing your own vendors, decorating the barn as little or as much as you like, customizing event locations - but still all with the help of Linnea and her team. A major bonus is the month-of coordination - a huge reason the day went so perfectly was because of David! They are all so easy to communicate with, ready to help and truly so happy to have you there. SRF was the perfect venue for our wedding and it will forever be a very special place to us. We truly couldn't have imagined a better day or a better place to get married!

I heard about Sylvan Ridge Farm from a guest that attended their first wedding, and I immediately knew I need to see it for myself. Aside from being a picturesque venue, the full weekend package includes 3 nights in the farmhouse and cottage, full use of the gorgeous barn, pool, hot tub, and grounds. The ability to not only have the whole wedding party stay onsite, but to bring all the vendors to us and not have to leave was everything I was looking for, so we booked on the spot. The owners Linnea and Alec were so wonderful to work with, they made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire process and replied to all emails very quickly. The addition of Sara Mack events for the month before/day of coordination was an incredible gift and words cannot convey what a wonderful job David did for us. He was crucial to making our day everything we wanted it to be, and we could not have done it as well without all his assistance. Everyone had an amazing time, and I could not envision our wedding being anywhere else. It was one of the best days of our lives and that is in no small part to the people and property at Sylvan Ridge Farm.

Our wedding at Sylvan Ridge Farm was an absolute dream!!! From the moment we found the venue online I knew it was the perfect place for us. Fast forward to actually touring the venue and we couldn't wait to be back there! The property, barn and house are all absolutely beautiful and so well taken care of. Being able to have a whole wedding weekend was at the top of our wish list and Sylvan Ridge made this possible. The owners of the venue were easy to contact and always replied to all emails very quickly. Their coordination team was also beyond amazing! From months before our wedding through the entire day of, Kayla made sure everything ran perfectly. We cannot say enough good things about Sylvan Ridge!! We would highly recommend this venue to anyone!

Such a beautiful venue with an incredible offering. The full weekend package really allows you and your friends/family time to enjoy the whole process. From rehearsal dinner, to wedding, to post wedding brunch it is so nice to have everything in one location. The owners were extremely helpful throughout the whole process and were so responsive. The grounds were beautiful and provided so much space for a lovely weekend. We had so many guests comment on how beautiful the venue was. We definitely chose the right place for our wedding!

Where do we begin? From the moment you step foot on the beautiful grounds of Sylvan Ridge Farm, you feel at home. Whether you’re hosting your Wedding or simply renting the property for a family reunion, the Farm House and Cottage provide more than you can ever imagine. We were fortunate enough to reserve Labor Day weekend for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with our communications with ownership. The package includes a 3 night stay in the rustic (yet modernized) farm house and cottage, as well as full use of the amazing barn for 3 full days. We hosted our rehearsal dinner and wedding on the grounds and had a blast. Our guests were amazed by the look and feel of the barn and surrounding area. Truly couldn’t imagine our big day anywhere else!

Sylvan Ridge Farm was everything we wanted our wedding weekend to be. We were able to enjoy multiple days with our friends and family on site, which was important to us from the beginning. The farmhouse and cabin were exceptionally decorated and comfortable. The barn provided the perfect setting for dancing and celebrating with our friends and family. We would recommend this venue to anyone looking for an extended wedding weekend!

Our wedding was perfect and that was only made possible due to our venue choice of Sylvan Ridge Farm!! From the start of getting engaged, our main priority was that if we were going to spend money on a wedding, we wanted it to be our wedding with the ability to completely customize all details and most importantly we didn’t want to spend the money on one 6 hour event. With Sylvan Ridge Farm’s unique property rental for 72 hours with accommodations onsite, our wedding turned into a full weekend trip away with our friends and was an incredible 3 days from start to finish. Linnea and her team at the farm are AMAZING— incredibly responsive via email and phone, provided thorough knowledge and advice as needed, and included great preferred vendors. The grounds, barn, and farmhouse are stunning and cozy. An added plus is they are dog friendly! The most underrated but crucial part of Sylvan Ridge was that you aren’t being churned through a “cookie cutter” wedding at a big time venue. They’re family owned and operated and it shows, with constant improvements being made to the property & experience and individualized attention for each wedding. You will not regret hosting your wedding here!!!

Sylvan Ridge Farm was the first venue my husband and I toured last year, and while we liked it, we weren’t sure exactly what we wanted then and kept looking around. Many months and many other venue tours later, we came back to Sylvan Ridge and realized it was exactly what we were looking for. Luckily, they still had one date available this year, and we were able to book it.
We rented the farmhouse and barn for the wedding and the night before only, but if there had been time, we would have loved to book it for longer, to take advantage of the pool, hot tub, fire pit, and hiking trails around the property. As it was, having the afternoon and evening before the wedding to set up and decorate the barn was perfect.
The newly-reconstructed barn is gorgeous. The stone fireplace, impressive woodwork, and iron chandeliers make the space feel fancy yet cozy, and whether you’re having a micro-wedding or one with over 100 guests, the size of the barn never feels too big or too small. It’s the perfect balance of rustic and chic, and you can dress it up as much as you want. It’s great to have the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception locations all in one place so that nothing is too spread out. We loved how friendly the space felt, since we were looking for a warm, welcoming atmosphere for our guests, and the barn at Sylvan Ridge definitely delivered!
The renovated farmhouse is beautiful, with a plethora of getting-ready spaces and lounge areas for all your friends and family. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and there are so many little detailed touches in each room that show how much love and care the owners, Linnea and Alec, put into the place. The cottage is also adorable.
Linnea was so friendly and accommodating, always answering our emails clearly and promptly. She was super flexible and let us set up our DIY wedding exactly the way we liked, with everything we needed and nothing we didn’t. While we did not add Sara’s coordination services, she gave us a tour twice and also set up times for us to visit with our vendors, and she was the event manager on the day of our wedding. Sara was so sweet and a joy to work with; as the bride, I missed most of the setup that day, but my friends and family all told me she was amazing. She set up the ceremony chairs for us and even helped me bustle my dress before the reception.
Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful. It was mostly sunny, with a little sprinkle of rain, and the natural backdrop of the grounds was gorgeous in both kinds of weather. Many of our guests were amazed by the beauty of the venue and how private and conveniently located it is.
Our day was perfect and it wouldn’t have been possible without Sylvan Ridge Farm and the awesome people who work there. If you’re considering booking, don’t hesitate! There’s no need to look anywhere else!

Sylvan Ridge Farm is an absolute dream for anyone looking for a venue that integrates nature. I was nervous that the barn would look too much like a farm, but that was not the case at all. The barn is newly renovated and is absolutely gorgeous. It is the perfect blank canvas for the vision you have! The venue is breath taking and my guests still cannot stop talking about how beautiful it was there. The owners of this venue really work hard to accommodate all the different styles, ideas, and budgets of each bride. They were absolutely lovely. The package we went with provided us with the barn for the wedding venue, as well as the stunning farmhouse and cottage. Both were perfect for my bridal party to stay the night and get ready. The entire place is picture perfect! I cannot say enough good things about this venue! The venue is also perfect for wedding photos. There are many different areas that function as the perfect backdrop. If you book with them, you will not regret it!

Sylvan Ridge Farm was the most perfect setting for our wedding weekend. We had the event barn, farmhouse, and cottage for 3 nights. Our entire bridal party got to stay on property all weekend and there was so much space for everyone to get ready and take photos. We were able to have a welcome dinner and drinks Thursday night with our bridal party on the wrap-around porch, a rehearsal dinner in the downstairs barn space, out of town guest gathering Friday in the farmhouse, and the wedding Saturday, all for one flat event space rate. Where else can you do that?! I felt so relaxed all weekend knowing I didn't have anywhere else to be!
The barn is beyond gorgeous, and allows you as a couple to make it your own with personal décor. Brides that love a DIY project (like myself) can spend as much time as they want helping to setup the space exactly as they envision, or hire some help to make your dreams a reality, anything is possible here! Linnea and Alec the owners were so helpful and responsive throughout the entire process, and all of their vendor recommendations who made the whole event possible were 10/10.
Even though we experienced some rain throughout the weekend, Linnea and the team stepped into action and made our last-minute ceremony rain plan even better than I could have hoped!

To have your wedding at Sylvan Ridge is to experience a piece of heaven. There simply are not enough words to capture how beautiful this venue is and all the intentionality Alex and Linnea (owners) have put into this stunning location. What makes SRF unique is their 4 day package. Hands down the best decision we made - I cannot imagine our wedding any other way. It allowed for ample time with family and friends, time to jump in the hot tub, and time to hike - plus decorate the barn and host the rehearsal dinner onsite. The farmhouse and cottage are gorgeous. Everything top of the line. Wildly comfortable and has plenty of space for everyone to get ready (we had about 25 people get ready there wedding morning).
SRF allows couples to create a wedding that feels unique to their own love story. Want to hike into the woods for your first look? You got it! Want to sip champagne under gorgeous iron chandelier? Of course! It’s truly a breath of fresh air to the wedding venue sector. There is a reason they are booked so far out. They are creating something special.
Finally, our wedding would not have been complete without our vendors. Most of which we found off SRF’s preferred vendor list. KCK catering (Cassandra and her team are amazing) and Much Music (the dance floor was never empty) were outstanding. Thank you Sylvan Ridge for creating a lifetime of memories!!

I would recommend Sylvan Ridge to any future brides!! This venue allows for your special day to become an entire weekend of wedding-filled activities with your family. It made it that much more special to have the magic of the wedding day stretch out even longer! We didn't want to say goodbye!!
Our actual wedding day was just perfect. The beauty of the barn is undeniable and the individualized touches you can create are endless. The owners and wedding coordinator Sara Mack are very open to your ideas and happy to help in any way they can.
Thank you to both Linnea and Alec who have created such a beautiful space! We fell in love with this venue immediately and didn't need to see any place else!

Booking Sylvan Ridge Farm as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we have ever made. My wife and I were married here in October of 2021 and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Alec and Linnea are fantastic hosts and have done an amazing job restoring this farm property and creating the most elegant barn wedding venue you’ll ever see. We booked for the whole weekend, which we would highly recommend as it gives you the time to relax, set up and enjoy the entire experience. If you have the opportunity to get married here and can find an open weekend… do it… you won’t regret it.
To Alec & Linnea… thank you so much for having us. We feel very fortunate that we were able to get married at such a magical place. You helped us create a wedding we will never forget!!

Absolutely Idyllic: We were married at Sylvan Ridge in mid-September and we highly recommend it. The barn is majestic, from the huge, historic fireplace to the impressive timbers and wood work.
The downstairs cocktail area and courtyard were so lovely that we altered the traditional order of events in order to capitalize on the beauty. We had the cocktail reception first and, after about an hour, conducted the ceremony in the courtyard.
The owners, Alec and Linnea, clearly paid close attention to every detail in the construction, decoration and landscaping. They were very gracious and helped us with every little request we made.
Finally, we also rented the farm house for some out-of-town family members to stay overnight and we spent our wedding night in the cottage. These were both meticulously restored, decorated and maintained.
Our vendors were all fantastic. We used KCK Catering, one of Sylvan Ridge’s preferred vendors. The florist was Laurel Grove Florist, from Port Jervis. The music was provided by Orel Longobardi, from Milford. The photographer was Casey Kelly, from Dingmans Ferry. All are reviewed separately.

If you are looking for that rustic barn feel with the modern-day touch - this is the place you want to have your wedding. We cannot recommend Sylvan Ridge Farms enough! Alec and Linnea Geno were absolutely wonderful from start to finish. My wife and I were looking for venues in NY during 2020 (yes, during COVID craziness) and we weren't able to find anything that was open and accommodating, until we expanded our horizon and searched out of state. The first link we clicked on was SRF and we could not be happier that we did.
Linnea is very sweet and when we first met up to talk, it was almost as if we had been friends for years. She gave us a tour, explained all our options, and gave us the history behind SRF. After meeting with her just one time and seeing the brand new remodeled barn, the stunning farmhouse, and the romantic cottage, we knew this is the place we were going to have our wedding.
The venue consists of a newly constructed barn that has a beautiful wood finish upstairs (which can seat 150 comfortably with room for a dance floor), a stone/ wood finish downstairs (which is great for cocktail hour), and a luscious green yard right outside, overlooking a forested valley, for your ceremony to have the most flawless backdrop. The farmhouse is huge with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, a spacious living room, and beautiful kitchen where family and relatives can easily stay if need be. They also have the cutest cottage that the couple can stay in the night of their wedding. (I had 5 groomsmen sleep in the cottage the night before my wedding and we all slept comfortably, and my wife had her bridesmaids sleep in the farmhouse the night before which fit 11 comfortably - it worked out perfectly.) They also have a pool, hot tub, and a bonfire all on site.
We were able to set up the day before our wedding, stay in the farmhouse the night before, have the ceremony and reception the day of, AND stay our first night in the cottage all on the same property! The convenience of not having to worry about driving anywhere or moving any equipment was very much appreciated; I have been in quite a few weddings and nothing beats having everything take place on the same property.
One more neat tidbit - the dance floor was located right next to the barn doors which was awesome because people could dance or step right outside if they felt it was too crowded or the music was too loud, but were still a part of everything and didn’t miss a beat. We couldn’t be happier with the layout.
I feel like I can go on and on. All our guests spoke about how amazing the venue was and asked us how we even found it. We were so blessed that we came across Sylvan Ridge Farms. We highly recommend this venue for the most perfect wedding day!

Linnea & Alec at Sylvan Ridge Farm were extremely helpful, accommodating, professional & supportive! They were always willing and available to answer any questions we had and they made sure to keep us up to date with the ever changing covid guidelines. They were with us every step of the way including the wedding day! They helped set up days before, helped with the rehearsal & were there to make sure everything ran smoothly during the wedding. Linnea & Alec truly want couples to have the best wedding experience! It is a breathtaking venue & Linnea and Alec were so great to work with! Highly recommend!
