The Barn was previously a turn-of-the-century dairy barn that has been renovated as a gorgeous space for events. The renovation, spanning 10 years, has melded historical elements of the farm with modern amenities. With 24-foot-high ceilings, a chandelier constructed from antique cattle stanchions and romantic lighting, this one of a kind site may host up to 200 guests.

Seamless Wedding

We lucked out with The Farm after a few failed attempts DIY-ing our intimate wedding at rented houses and thank goodness we did. Working with The Farm made wedding planning way easier I wish we could have done it this way from the beginning. The location was perfect - we wanted to be around nature and with The Farm, we had the option to hold the ceremony outdoors or indoors (in the event of rain). This took away the stress of having to plan for a rain contingency. Working with them is also 100% seamless - they are PROS. The last thing you want in planning a wedding is working with a team that overpromises and under delivers; and we've had our fair share of experience from trying to DIY. The team is very responsive, as we found the location just a few months away from a wedding we already had booked vendors for. They literally saved our wedding from disaster. On top of that, the food was excellent. The moment we came to visit and had a tasting, we knew we found the one. The chef had us taste the freshest charcuterie selection, we thought the meats were so fresh they were just butchered from around the corner. 10/10 would recommend.

Dream Wedding Venue

We loved working with everyone at the farm to plan our wedding from start to finish. The entire process was a wonderful experience—Candice and Steve were incredibly attentive and truly listened to everything we wanted. On the day of the wedding, the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. We could really feel the amount of care and effort that went into making our day so special. The food was delicious, the ceremony space and flowers were absolutely gorgeous, and the cows were the best! We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team!

A Dream & Gorgeous Venue – Natural Beauty Meets 5-Star Service and Incredible Chefs.

We cannot recommend this venue highly enough for any couple looking for a perfect wedding day! The property is massive, natural, and absolutely breathtaking. We held our ceremony and cocktail hour in the large open mountain area surrounded by lush greenery—it was stunning. For the reception, the indoor barn provided a woody, cozy, and elegant atmosphere that felt both warm and refined.

One of the biggest highlights was having the entire venue to ourselves for the whole day. Unlike other places, we didn’t have to share the space with other weddings, which made the experience feel very private and special. Everything was incredibly clean and well-maintained, especially the bathrooms (which were large and spotless!), and the private bridal suite was perfect for getting ready.

The owner and staff are true professionals. The owner is an experienced chef, and you can really taste the difference with the farm-to-table menu. Everything was fresh, organic, and seasonal. Our guests haven't stopped raving about how terrific the food was! We also loved the tasting session before the wedding, which helped us feel confident in our choices.

The managers guided us through every step, offering great suggestions and coordinating with our vendors (who they have great partnerships with—no pressure to buy!). They kept everything running smoothly and on schedule, answering every question we had along the way. We can’t wait to come back for one of their farm dining events in the future!

An unforgettable day

We knew from the moment we stepped foot onto the grounds at the Farm at Glenwood Mountain that it was going to be our wedding venue-something just felt right. There was an immediate sense of warmth and magic that made it feel incredibly special to us. We didn’t even tour a single other venue!

The venue being family-run and truly farm-to-table made it even more special. You can feel the care, pride, and love that goes into every detail, from the food to the experience as a whole. Everything is thoughtfully sourced, beautifully prepared, and incredibly meaningful.

The team at Glenwood Mountain exceeded every single expectation. Steve, Candice, Stacey and Erika communicated with us every step of the way and made everything feel so easy. From the setting to the service to the attention to detail, everything was flawless. Our guests are still talking about the incredible food made by Chef Steve and the breathtaking venue, which says everything.

We truly could not have imagined a more perfect wedding day, and I’m still on cloud nine thinking about it. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that feels magical, personal, and exceptionally run, we cannot recommend the Farm at Glenwood Mountain enough. Our hearts are so full, and we’re beyond grateful to have celebrated such an important day in such a special place!

The Farm at Glenwood Mountain

Getting married at the farm at Glenwood Mountain was the best decision we made. It is such a magical place to get married. From the farmhouse we stayed at across the street, to the highland cows, to the stunning views- it was all perfect. The food is outrageously good and really makes the venue unique. Everyone who works here is so kind and helpful.

an absolute gem

Our October wedding at the Farm at Glenwood Mountain was everything we hoped it would be. The backdrop of the Appalachian Mountains was stunning. The farm to table experience that Chef Steve curated was impeccable. The floral arrangements designed by Candice were exquisite and precisely what we imagined for our wedding. The staff at the Farm was such a delight to work with, especially Erika. Their team handles every detail with passion, vision, and genuine care. From the moment we stepped onto the Farm, we knew this was a very special place. All of our guests were enchanted by the allure of the Farm, the kindness of the staff, and were particularly charmed by their livestock! We will definitely be back to visit our farm family!

Perfect Wedding

Everything was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Steve, Candice and the rest of the staff were so easy to work with and great people.

11 outta 10!

We had a late fall wedding at the Farm and it was absolute perfection. Steve and Candace and the whole team have a talent that is hard to put into words. Their vision for weddings is extraordinary -- from the untouched landscape, to the Michelin star level food, to the creatively grown and imagined floral designs, to the joy and ease and family feel of the entire process. As a struggling perfectionist, it's hard to believe that looking back two months later, I would not do one thing different. Steve and Candace will make your dream wedding come true whatever it is -- put all your trust in them, you won't regret it!

Ps. don't snooze on the apple crumble. the guests are all still talking about it.

Incredible Wedding Experience

We can’t thank the Farm at Glenwood Mountain enough for how special they made our wedding day! Everything was absolutely perfect. The farm property is gorgeous and the barn’s cathedral ceiling is breathtaking. The food was incredible and is still being talked about, months after our wedding. Steve, Candice, and Stacy communicated with us every step of the way and made us feel so comfortable in our decisions, especially the few months and weeks leading up to the big day. We would recommend this venue to ANYONE and EVERYONE that is looking for a quality venue with staff and owners that care so deeply for their clients. We are eternally grateful for the opportunity they gave us to share such an important day with our closest family and friends, and are thrilled to have become part of the Farm Family! Highly recommend 100%!!!

Seamless from start to finish!

Steve and Candice were genuine and so pleasant from the beginning. They were helpful, responsive and you can tell they really care about your special day. My (now) husband and I knew from the moment we saw their venue that it was the one! They answered all of our questions over the year or so of planning, and made us feel so comfortable coming to them with ideas or stupid questions along the way. As two young(er) people being the first in their families to get married, we felt so at ease knowing they were there to help.
When the day got here, we knew we were in good hands. From the moment we showed up to the moment we said goodnight, we could NOT stop thanking them and their entire team the incredible night they put together. Our families won't stop raving about the food and the ambiance, and it's so clear they are people who put their heart and soul into their work. We are so pleased with our experience with them, we would highly recommend to anyone looking to book their special day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
