History
This venue has a long history and is a great option for couples who’d like to start their lives as a married couple in a historic, romantic setting. It started with the War of 1812 when the Cottle family obtained the property on land grant 285 from the war. Oliver Cottle, wanting to live his dream of owning a stunning stone house, added a small house to the property to live that dream. Built on top of a hill between several sycamore trees, the house features historical, architectural charm. The conservatory was added to the house in 1903 and there is a beautiful fireplace on the wall. The oldest known photograph of the stone house features two boys and was taken in the 1930s.

Reviews of Stone House of St. Charles
Review summary
The Stone House at St. Charles is described as a beautiful venue with exceptional service. Multiple reviewers praise the helpfulness of Ruth and Mike, the staff at the venue. The bridal cottage and grooms quarters are mentioned as great features. The included decorations and DJ are appreciated, as they helped make the wedding planning process easier. Guests of the weddings at the Stone House had a fantastic time and everything went seamlessly. Some reviewers mention that the reception area may feel empty with smaller wedding sizes, but overall, the venue is highly recommended for its stunning setting and smooth execution of events.
Beautiful wedding venue
I had a smaller wedding size of about 96. The only draw I would say about the venue with this group size is the reception area did feel empty in areas because I just didn’t have the budget to fill in the spaces. So if you have a similar size, maybe think about decor or pieces you could rent to fill in the area. Other than that, my day was truly magical. Thank you again Ruth and Mike!
It was the perfect day!
