Amazing An Perfect

This experience was amazing- we got married during the Covid pandemic, Julie an Frank were so accommodating from the very start. They were always so easy to talk to an with all of the different questions that we had. The venue itself is breathtaking from the moment you arrive- there are so many different options at the Mountain House No matter what your style they are able to accommodate.
One of the things I truly loved was being able to have our family as well as our wedding party stay on site it made for great memories an great laughs.
I truly can’t Thank Frank an Julie enough for making our Wedding Day so amazing, they truly are what makes the Mountain House stand out from any other venue

Mountain Wedding of our Dreams!

I’m really not sure where to even start. We found out about the Mountain House at a local dog park and after reading reviews online and one simple conversation with Julie, I was ready to book the venue without seeing it in person. The second we pulled onto the property my fiancé and I looked at each other and said “this is it”. We literally could not imagine getting married anywhere but the Mountain House.

Julie and Frank are simply the best. From the very beginning, they were wonderful at communication and gave us thorough recommendations based on their experiences to make sure our wedding day was the best. I was definitely not a low maintenance bride and I emailed Julie 1-2x/week and she always responded with thoughtful and honest advice, which I so appreciated while planning a wedding.

We rented out the farmhouse and suite for our weekend and we are so happy we did, as we were able to spend so much extra time with our wedding party. All of our friends were raving about our weekend being the best wedding they have ever attended, due to the uniqueness of the property (and not to mention how beautiful it was). The houses are in great condition and have so much character. We can’t wait to go back and stay there for a weekend!

We had 105 guests at our wedding and this was the perfect number for the Mountain House, as we felt like it was still an intimate wedding feel with all the amenities. It was raining the day of our wedding, but Julie and Frank worked closely with our DJ to track the rain to make sure we could get married in the field like we wanted to, and it worked out absolutely perfect.

I don’t have enough words to describe how thankful we are for Julie and Frank and their beautiful Mountain House property. They are so personable and it felt like more than just a wedding venue to us. We love the mountains and our day was more than we could ever imagine. Getting ready with my girls in front of the mountain drop is a memory I will hold closely forever! As well as the entire weekend, from start to finish.

If you are looking for a unique, rustic, and special place for your wedding, don’t look any further. From the breathtaking views, the amenities, Julie and Frank’s compassion, to the epic reception party, to all of the help leading up to the event, we could not have asked for a better wedding weekend. We love you Julie and Frank! We will be back to visit :)

Beyond any expectations I had

This was the perfect venue with the most laid back vibe. The location, the picturesque mountain backdrop was breathtaking. Julie went above and beyond to make everything I wanted/needed happen without a hassle or any stress. The food… amazing. And you can BYOB !!!’ Which was huge on us saving money as the booze!

The Mountain House on Sunday River is one of our favorite venues in the state! We have photographed there many times, and we always love going back. The owners, Julie and Frank, are awesome to work with, and we've heard nothing but great things about them from our clients. The Mountain House offers a large variety of scenic backdrops, from the mountain views, to the apple orchard, to the nearby covered bridge. It makes photographing there a pleasure.

I really love working at Mountain House on Sunday River. The venue is absolutely gorgeous inside and out and Julie and Frank are always a pleasure to work with. Not to mention there is a historic covered bridge not 5 minutes walk down the road. I would recommend this venue to anyone who loves the Maine wilderness but also enjoys the comfort of a beautiful New England style farmhouse. Can't wait for my next wedding there!
