Mountain Branch Golf Club Reviews

We had our wedding reception at Mountain Branch just last month, 4/13/24 and the night could not have been more perfect. The staff were all amazing, so accommodating and friendly, Christine was wonderful and flexible with all our little details, the food was delicious, the bartenders were awesome and the views overlooking the golf course were beautiful. The process was easy and enjoyable. We truly had the best time!

Mountain Branch is a fantastic, beautiful venue. For the price, you can't beat all the included things with it. We worked with a wedding planner, Christine, provided by Mountain Branch, and they handled all set-up and tear down, allowing us to drop off our decorations the day before, and store it for us the day after. The food was absolutely delicious, and there were plenty of drink options. Every member of staff who worked the wedding was incredibly friendly! My wife and I cannot recommend Mountain Branch enough!

My husband and I chose to have our ceremony and reception at Mountain Branch and the entire experience was amazing! Our wedding coordinator was Christine and she truly helped make our wedding day perfect. Christine was very organized and on top of everything, she catered to our needs but was also honest and extremely helpful in making decisions. We even had our guests asking us during the wedding who the coordinator was because of how well everything was put together and how smoothly the whole day went. I never felt out of the loop with what was going on and this made the whole process so much easier. The food was delicious and the scenery was beautiful in our pictures. I would definitely recommend this venue for ceremonies/receptions!!

Everyone was so welcoming and helpful! Christine and Carol were amazing to work with and made everything work for us! Mountain Branch did an awesome job! Thanks so much!

My husband and I have been a long-time customers of Mountain Branch and I was even once employed there as a banquet server - I loved my job there, it was the best!
From experiencing the breath taking views while dining in the restaurant, enjoying a cocktail in the rustic pub, playing the golf course and attending holiday-themed events, we have nothing but high praises to share about the establishment and the people that keep it running. The quality you receive when booking a wedding or other special event with them is above par.
The food is delicious, and you can't go wrong with the mini crabcake appetizers!
The photo opportunities will blow your mind! Our photographer was in awe with the views that overlooked the course and the rolling hills of Harford County in the distance. Our guests were extremely impressed with all of it, and we knew we were in good hands with having the Day-of-coordinators there helping us plan and make sure the days runs smoothly. Carol and Christine are the most attentive and organized women who kept us sane on the craziest day of our lives. We are so happy with how everything turned out thanks to them.
We highly reccomend booking your wedding with Mountain Branch! I wouldn't have done it any differently if I had a chance to do it over again.

We had our 50th wedding anniversary celebration at Mountain Branch. The room looked great. The staff was professional, friendly and attentive to our needs. The food was good quality, well prepared and delicious. Our guests raved about the food.

I highly recommend Mountain Branch.

Mountain Branch was a wonderful wedding venue. The staff was easy to work with and it was so nice to have the catering, tables/chairs and venue all in one spot. Would highly recommend.

I had an amazing wedding. Beautiful venue. Carol was the best! She answered my emails in timely manner and met with me several times when I had questions. She was great!!

Mountain Branch gave us the wedding of our dreams with little work from us. They accommodated every single request with a smile and their staff did an absolutely amazing job setting up our decor, serving our guests, and helping with any request. We loved that we had the outside area for our guests to mingle or escape the loud music for a bit. The bartenders made amazing drinks and helped give everyone a great experience. Our coordinator Christine did an amazing job managing the day and communicating with our vendors. The food was great, the foliage was beautiful, and our guests had the best time!

We had a beautiful Fall wedding on a gorgeous day! Carol was very helpful in helping us plan and her expertise helped the day go smoothly. She took care of all the details and even allowed us in early to decorate. Food was delicious, bar was well stocked and the staff was friendly & efficient. We had many compliments from our guests on how much they enjoyed it. After all the planning, it was so nice to be able to relax and enjoy the day!

Working with Carol and her team for the last 18 months planning for my wedding was such a breeze. They made it so easy, and my day was everything I had dreamt it would be. It included so much stuff you only need to hire a DJ, Photographer, Hair and Make-up and hotel since they do not have a bridal party suite to get ready in. Everything else is included! And I mean everything... Staff working it, tables, chairs, linens, alcohol, food, wedding cake, they set up and clean up for you. We did our ceremony in the courtyard overlooking the golf course and had our reception in the tented ball room. The only thing is I would recommend is hiring a photographer who has been there, so they know where all the good spots are. Luckily for us ours had been there several times before for other weddings (Lisa Robin) she was fantastic. The only thing that I heard of was the champagne fountain was a little warm but besides that everything was perfect, and the food is AMAZING.

Food was good, but A/C was NOT working. Aug 6 2022, we had 2 guests lose consciousness in the first hour due to heat exhaustion, staff insisted everything was fine. Carol McCarthy would not return phone calls and refused to make any adjustments/credits after the fact. She also listed on the contract that bourbon would be included but claimed they were unable to get any for our event.

We had our wedding at Mountain Branch 11/6/21. Our experience was excellent. Their planners Carol and Christine are so knowledgeable and make the process so easy. I can't speak enough to how patient, understanding and flexible Carol and Christine were during our whole wedding planning process. It took so much stress off. As for Mountain Branch, the venue is beautiful, food was great, and it is affordable. An added bonus for us was that venue, alcohol, cake and food were all included, so not having to find and hire separate vendors for each of those things.
Our experience at Mountain Branch was excellent, I would highly recommend as a wedding venue.

My mom hosted my bridal shower here last weekend and we were extremely disappointed in Mountain Branch. Not worth it for the price by any means. The only positive was that they were very flexible with changing the date (we had to postpone a year because of COVID). But the execution of the event was as if they have never hosted an event before .

Our contract included mimosas to be there for when guests arrived. 30 minutes after the event started we asked where the mimosas were and they told us that we had to pay for them. We told them we did pay for them and they told us we had to speak to a manager (who they never went to get). So my mom had to go over and pull up the contract on her phone.

They also didn't have water. Who doesn't have water? They told us we could have Sprite or tonic water instead until we argued with them that they need to go get a big pitcher of water.

We had about 50 guests there and they brought out about 10 tea sandwiches per platter. So needless to say, they were gone almost as soon as they came out and no one was there to refill the sandwich platter. So the buffet was sparse and empty until I talked to two servers and the manager telling them they needed to constantly refill the buffet. Presentation was disappointing.

They also went around and took everyone's knives mid meal because they had run out of knives (I think there was also a wedding and another event that day). Clearly they were not prepared to host our event and it was embarrassing.

When I called the event manager a few days later to discuss, all she had was excuses. She sent my Mom a gift card to make the situation right instead of comping a percentage of the bill. Why would we want to go back there?

I would definitely reconsider if you are planning to have an event at Mountain Branch. Not worth it at all in my opinion.

We had both our ceremony and reception at Mountain Branch on 10/3/2020 and our day was absolutely perfect. We chose Mountain Branch, because of how easy they make the planning process and for the beautiful ceremony and reception area. We worked with Carol, who was amazing! She was so helpful and made sure everything was perfect for us every step of the way. We got so many compliments on everything! The view, the food, the setting. We have zero complaints

Mountain branch was amazing. LeeAnn made sure we had everything we needed and was always just a phone call away

I can't thank Mountain Branch and the entire staff enough for hosting us and helping us pull of an absolutely perfect wedding day.

First, the GM, Caroll - a MILLION THANK YOU's for being so responsive and accommodating during very challenging times. You kept us at ease and made sure everything went as planned. We never felt like we were in the dark or uneasy about the wedding and we could not be happier with the end result.

Secondly - Nick. My wife and I were so impressed by him at our wedding. He always made sure we had what we needed (drink in my hand) and made a huge difference in our event. Give that man a raise! We were being pulled a thousand different directions throughout the event, but we just could not help but notice his work ethic. The next day he also made sure we got everything we left behind (which was literally everything).

As far as the venue is concerned, it is perfectly positioned on higher ground, looking over a beautiful golf course and the surrounding county. It's a perfect mix of outdoor and indoor space, which allowed for a enjoyable event for ourselves and our guests.

Jaime and I are so happy we chose Mountain Branch and look forward to coming back for many years. Caroll also hooked me up with some golf passes - I will be back soon!

LeeAnn White and the entire staff at Mountain Branch were instrumental in making our daughters wedding day a huge success. We would all highly recommend the venue for their professionalism and quality service. Our guests (150+) have repeatedly conveyed what a top notch event it was from the ceremony to the food and the final send off. So very glad they selected Mountain Branch for their special day!

Mountain Branch was worth every penny! I had the most beautiful and prefect wedding I could have ever imagined. Carol is the absolute best to work with. She made my whole experience of planning a wedding so stress free. Her staff was so helpful and useful during my ceremony and reception. My florist sent the wrong bouquet so Carol had her girls rearrange my bouquet with flowers from my centerpieces so that I could walk down the aisle with the bouquet that I wanted. The food was amazing, the venue is beautiful, and the staff is so friendly. I highly recommend this venue!

Mountain Branch made our dreams of a prefect wedding come true. Between Carol making sure every thing was done timely and efficiently, to the staff making sure the decorations were exactly how we pictured them. It was prefect. Communication was on point. If I sent a question on a Saturday or Sunday night I would get an immediate respond, which made me feel much better when it came closer to the date. The staff was very professional and treated everyone with respect. When Mountain Branch says they want you to enjoy your big day, I can honestly say they mean it.

Carol & her staff made our dreams come true! Food was amazing, service was incredible, everything was perfect!

We had a great time at Mountain Branch. It was really easy to plan with the MB crew. They are like a well-oiled machine when it comes to weddings and everything went together seamlessly. The location is really beautiful in person and Lee-Ann was so attentive from start to finish. Highly recommend.

Carol and LeAnn at mountain branch are fabulous! They take care of every detail and made sure everything was perfect. The venue was great for our guests, they loved having the outside space to chill out if they weren't dancing. I loved everything about having my wedding at Mountain branch and would absolutely recommend to anyone!

I truly don’t think I can put into words how thankful I am and happy we chose Mountain Branch as our venue. I knew from the start after meeting Carol that this was the place I wanted to get married. She was THE BEST. So welcoming and so real and honest at the same time. You can tell she truly loves her job. Anytime I had a question she got back to me the same day. My wedding planning experience was STRESS FREE and that is so important. The day of I literally worried about not a single thing. I truly trusted Carol and her staff to set up the venue and carry out my vision and my gosh did they deliever! It was so beautiful and everything went perfect. If I had to chose again I’d chose them over and over again. You will not find a wedding coordinator than Carol.
