    Best venue ever!

    Since the start of our planning, the Watermill has always been responsive to any concerns. Towards the end, we worked a lot with Kaitlynn who alleviated any worries there were. On the day of our wedding the staff were all incredible! They were at our beck and call the entire night and every desire was met. Even the Waite staff were amazing. My nephew who has a mental disorder was being very picky over his meal and refused anything out of the various meals on the menu. Instead of telling him he needed to pick one, they gently asked him what he does like and without a hesitation cooked up his favorite meal. I cannot say enough about this venue, they are simply amazing!
