We would absolutely recommend this wonderful venue! Our wedding day was a dream come true thanks to Lark and Janine. Every detail was met, the barn is absolutely beautiful, the views at the ceremony site are gorgeous. Lark and Janine are more than accommodating, we stayed the night and they brought us coffee and quiche in the morning. Simply Fabulous

A Hidden Gem!
From the very beginning, Lark & Janine have been the nicest people to work with! They have been more than accommodating with our requests to see the venue to different family members and having to postpone due to COVID. We are getting married in May of 2021 and can't wait! You cannot beat the price and flexibility of this venue. The views are a dream and like I said, we can't wait!
