  It was magical

  
  I’m having a difficult time writing this review because there does not seem to be words to explain just how amazing my daughters wedding was. We decided to rent the venue for 48 hours so we could stay there and enjoy the entire weekend. It was AMAZING! There is something magical about this place. Kathy and her assistant Whitney went above and beyond for me. They even stepped in and helped me during the planning when I had some stresses with other vendors. We had a downpour of rain (even flooding) in the days coming up to the wedding, including the night before. And they still supported my decision to have the ceremony outside and they had a plan to move it in at the last minute if it came down to that. It was amazing staying at the cabin on the property for 2 days. We got to have our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner there. We also got to enjoy the saloon the night before the wedding and just relax and have fun with family. The pictures are amazing. The DJ stayed late and we just danced in the barn for hours into the night celebrating my daughters wedding. I can not say enough about this amazing place. I’ve never been to a venue that offers so much and a huge part of that is Kathy and Whitney. I recommend Chisholm Trail Rustic Venue for any event! I hope to be able to rent it again in the future.

  Beautiful Venue, Perfect Weekend

  Highly recommend this venue! I love the western town vibe. It was perfect for my sunflower wedding. The owner is extremely professional and takes great care of the property. I could tell that she truly loves what she does. I highly recommend picking some of the vendors from the venue's list of recommended vendors. Those vendors are on that list for a reason!

  Best Day Ever!

  This place was absolutely perfect for our wedding! We knew it was where we wanted to get married as soon as we stepped foot into the old west town. It just fit us so perfectly. We loved that we could decorate exactly how we wanted, and we could bring in our own food/beverages. Kathy was super sweet, and really worked with us. I definitely recommend this place!!

  The Best Day

  Everything about the venue was perfect!! The accommodations were the best fit for our wedding party and guests who stayed the night. Everyone loved the saloon, and the yard space. Being able to play cornhole and the kids enjoyed the play set and swings.

  Your Dream Venue

  The day before the wedding can be chaotic! But with this venue you can set up the day before and stay the night! Kathy and her husband were great host and made sure I had everything I needed for my big day.

  Best day ever!!

  Where do I begin? It was a wonderful weekend! We booked for 48 hours, I was able to have some girl time with my bridesmaids the day and night before, rehearsal dinner and then wake up at my wedding venue!! Our big day was rescheduled due to COVID, and Kathy was so helpful and understanding! When we did have our day, it wasn’t how we planned due to the pandemic, but in our eyes it was even better! We had half the guests but way more time to enjoy those who came! Kathy was so wonderful in every part of the wedding process and the venue is absolutely gorgeous! Thank you Kathy! We love you! Chisholm trail rustic venue will always hold a special place in our hearts!

  Mother of bride

  We would recommend this venue. It is very unique has lots of options. The owner was very flexible and helpful in every way to make our special wedding day the best. If you are looking for an outdoor venue with alot to offer this is the place.

  Beauty is more than just skin deep

  At a first glance it is a very beautiful venue but, the neglected property management almost ruined my wedding day. The power went off at 10:45 that morning and would not stay on. My wedding coordinator contacted the property manager, to which she did not answer and my matron of honor basically had to handle it all to where I couldn’t spend time with all my bridesmaids the day of my wedding. When my Matron of Honor called and the property manager didn’t answer she left a message, asking her to call back asap. Which she then immediately called my coordinator back. She never gave my Matron of Honor the common courtesy to even let us know she was going to fix it or that she would be coming there. She finally showed up and she sat and flipped the breaker off and on for 4 hours. She did not bother getting a generator till 30 minutes before the wedding which filled up the barn with a gas smell. I did not get to have my grand entrance the way I wanted to due to the electricity being off. The fog machine I wanted to use did not have time to heat up. The electric outlets and all wiring all need to be replaced before there is a fire or someone gets electrocuted.
  
  The air conditioning couldn’t keep the rooms cool to where the groomsmen’s were covered in sweat while they were getting ready. The electricity was off and on every 15 minutes and we did not know if the food would be ok to eat. My cake fell due to the electricity being off. Almost all my guest left immediately after dinner due to the heat. A lot of my guest got over heated and even myself to where I almost had to change to enjoy my reception.
  
  There are nails sticking out of wood to where my dress got caught on one and there are nails and screws all over the ground. I was skeptical about letting my child run around.
  
  
  The guest house-the mice added to the rustic touch
  
  The property manager was told by the Bridesmaids, there was a mouse problem she stated I had it sprayed, and then the following day I saw the mouse on the kitchen counter, eating the chips, which the rodent problem was another reason why my guests didn’t want to stay. The whole point of us renting the place for the weekend was so that everybody could stay. On top of that her complimentary condiments were expired. The beds need to be replaced.
  The hanger to hang your bridesmaids dresses is only meant for short dresses not long.
  
  The fridge in the saloon had to be used by the caterer for food, so there is not a fridge available for keeping drinks cold for the bar, I had to go buy big tubs to keep the beer cold. So there needs to be a commercial refrigerator for caterers only as well as one in the saloon.
  
  The extra parking is up the hill so all the extra cars that are parked will show up in your reception pictures.
  
  -Chairs for ceremony and reception
  I was told the day before to assign people to help move chairs in from the ceremony to reception area. I mentioned this to my wedding coordinator who contacted the property manager to which the manger stated that her and her assistant could move the chairs. After the ceremony one of my guests was seen moving chairs, while Kathy sat and watched. When my coordinator mentioned to Kathy about moving the chairs, she started yelling at her. My guests should not have to move chairs, some of them were in their 80s and 90s. If she is going to accommodate 120 people she needs to have 240 chairs.
  When I addressed all these issues the following day, she tries to bribe me with a free girls weekend at the venue, stating “I don’t want you to write a bad review”.
