Beautiful Venue

My husband and I just got married on 2/20/21 at the Cottage Green and this venue exceeded my expectations. All the Maitre’d’s were very attentive and courteous. Nicole made sure I had plenty to drink and eat in the bridal suite. She even helped my daughter bustle my dress after the ceremony. There was top shelf liquor at the bar and the bartender was so much fun. This venue is elegant, clean and the food is superb. That day went off without a hitch. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for great service and reasonable pricing.

Baby Shower

I hosted a baby shower here in early November 2018 and we had a wonderful experience!
My friends and family have hosted many events at this location over the years and have always enjoyed our experience. The food is always delicious!
This is the first time I used the venue to actually order a cake for the event and it was beyond my expectations, the decoration of the cake was perfect and it tasted amazing! I’ll definitely host other events here in the future if needed!

Top notch and professional!

The planning, the pricing, the staff, the newly updated banquet rooms. Everything was perfect! I even requested the staff dress in costume as it was a halloween sweet 16 and they were all for it! It was like they were as excited for sarahs party as i was! Already planning a vow renewal ceremony for my 25th anniversary!

Lovely Venue

Over the years, I've always had great experiences at Cottage Green. I gave my daughter two baby showers. She also had her wedding there. The Crystal room is a beautiful room for a wedding. The staff is awesome. They took care of everything for her wedding. Everything ran smoothly. I've also had our family reunion Christmas party last year. Next year i'm looking forward to having my wedding there.

We had my daughter's Bridal shower here. Everything was wonderful, not a thing negative to say. Kim was so helpful when I reserved the room and in helping me pick the foods for the buffet, my daughter us gluten free and there was no problem at all , she suggested certain foods and they were amazing. The wait staff that we had were really nice and thorough. I would tell anyone thinking of booking to book, we had a wonderful time.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
