100% recommend!

My husband and I just got married at Sleepy Hollow in early October. Steve was responsive and flexible during all stages of planning. The barn and plantation were absolutely beautiful. We still have guests telling us how beautiful the venue was. I 100% recommend Sleepy Hollow Barn and Plantation for every couple getting married in SC!

I would tell all brides in SC to book with Steve and his family. Sleepy Hollow is such a beautiful venue, and filled with southern charm. I cannot say enough about how quickly Steve responded to all of my emails, how well taken care of the venue is, and how magical the whole atmosphere was around our big day because of the wedding green and the barn.

Steve was a great host for our reception that we had at Sleepy Hollow a few weeks ago! The venue looked wonderful with all of the string lights and wooden chandeliers. Our guests had nothing but nice things to say about it. The restrooms are clean and spacious, there's a space for cornhole, and the large bar area made getting drinks super easy! The buffet was able to be set up in the middle of the room, and there was still plenty of room for about 140 people to sit and eat. We got married in St. Lucia before having our hometown reception here, so we were able to show ceremony pictures as a slideshow on the big screen in the barn.

I am absolutely thrilled to have my wedding at Sleepy Hollow! I was recommended by a friend to check it out and I am so glad I did! From the moment I pulled up, I just had this feeling - I knew it was going to be a great spot. After spending time with Steve and Lynette (and their dog) I just felt the warmth from them and from the property. I said "yes" to Sleepy Hollow and can't wait for my wedding!

Love this venue! My husband and I just had our wedding here about two weeks ago. We had already been to a wedding here five years earlier and thought that it was pretty cute. But we chose to have our wedding at Sleepy Hollow because my husband proposed to me in front of Tillman and both building are composed of the same bricks so it was very sentimental for us. Steve is wonderful. He is very easy to talk to and will work with you to make everything great. We had our ceremony outside on the lawn and our reception inside the dairy barn. Steve had also recently added some things to the barn. He now has a keggerator that you can rent for your wedding and he can get the keg for you. He also has the option to hire one of his workers as a bartender. Steve has also recently added AC to the barn. My husband and I were very happy to find such a beautiful place to have our wedding. I recommend booking in advance if you need a Saturday or something in the summer. I booked ours over a year in advance. They had a wedding the day before and the day after ours.

We could not be happier with our choice to have our wedding at Sleepy Hollow. Having our wedding in March, we didn't know how the weather would be, however we had a beautiful, sunny, 75 degree day! Steve was so awesome leading up to the wedding. He sent email updates on the grounds and let us stop by as needed to work out wedding and reception details. He was super flexible, and allowed us to change the site for the ceremony from the Wedding Green to the lawn in front of the main house, due to rain the week before leaving the Wedding Green pretty muddy and wet. Steve worked with us and was willing to answer any questions we had and allowed us to us the barn and grounds as we saw fit to make all aspects of our special day exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend Sleepy Hollow to anyone looking for a beautiful venue in the Clemson area.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
