Wonderful Venue

Living in South Carolina I was so worried about having our daughter’s wedding in NC and not knowing anyone. After calling several venues I ran across 60 Acres, A Gathering Place, thought it was a beautiful place from the photos and called. Within minutes I just knew! Connie was God sent to me that day. Her care and knowledge made this so easy. I had a list of vendors, bridal shops, photographers, caterers and anything else you’ll need. Within days of booking the venue I had everything we needed scheduled. Throughout the year I received messages asking if we needed anything or had questions. Then came Brittany, another God sent. She was so helpful and sweet and Angels wedding day was perfect! I can’t recommend enough! What an amazing group of people 60 Acres A Gathering Place was for our family.

The Best Venue!

Our wedding at Sixty Acres was absolutely perfect, and we owe so much of that to Connie, Cowboy, Brittany, and the entire staff. From the very beginning, Connie and Cowboy were incredibly responsive and helpful, answering every question we had and making the entire planning process seamless. Their dedication and passion for what they do truly show, and it made all the difference in creating a stress-free experience.

On the wedding day, Cowboy and his team were consistently available, ensuring everything ran smoothly and that we had everything we needed. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes, handling every detail with such care and professionalism—it was clear they were fully invested in making sure our day was flawless.

Our coordinator, Brittany, was phenomenal. She kept everything and everyone organized, making sure the timeline flowed perfectly. She also made sure all our decor was beautifully set up, bringing our vision to life in the most stunning way. Having her there was invaluable, and I can’t thank her enough for making the day so effortless and enjoyable.

What truly sets Sixty Acres apart is the family feel—from start to finish, we felt completely taken care of, like we were part of something special. If you’re looking for a venue with not only a breathtaking setting but also a team that genuinely cares, this should be your top choice. Their vendor recommendations were also spot-on, making it easy to find reliable, high-quality professionals to bring our wedding to life.

I can’t recommend Sixty Acres enough—if you want a venue with an incredible staff that goes above and beyond, this is the place!

Corporate Event

We had an outstanding company holiday celebration at Sixty Acres. Connie, Cowboy & Brittany were so easy to work with and were very helpful with all aspects of the party. From recommending vendors such as caterers, bar tenders and DJ's to coordinating with those vendors to ensure a seamless event. Brittany did the decorations and they were beautiful. I would highly recommend this venue for any corporate event or wedding. They work very hard to make sure everything is perfect!

Amazing venue

I do not know where to begin with this review. From the moment my daughter and son-in-law met Connie and Cowboy, they fell in love. They are two of the sweetest people you will ever meet and working with them was amazing with all of our craziness. Everything went more smoothly than we thought that it would because it was extremely hot outside. The venue is absolutely beautiful! The scenery is gorgeous. We couldn't ask for a more memorable evening. The venue has some beautiful decorations for the tables if you are in need and it will save you a great deal of money. They have a list of vendors that they recommend if you need help with planning. There is a cabin located on the property for the men to get ready and a cute pond for them to fish while they hang around. There is a cute bridal suite for the ladies but with the extreme heat and the girls constantly leaving the door open it got a little humid and the air escaped but that was our own fault so that was the only bad thing. There are mirrors and chairs down the side for all to have a space and one revolving chair for either a stylist or makeup artist to be set up. The kitchen has an oversized fridge and a larger-than-life ice chest! So wonderful. My husband and I cannot say enough about everyone that they had to help; respectful, funny, sweet, amazing. Absolutely love this place and the people. Thank you again for making this the most memorable evening for our daughter and new son-in-law. Love you guys!
