How welcoming the owner Jeff was. We got a wine tour which wasn't planned, and the facilities behind the curtain were immaculate. There is no formal kitchen but it isn't necessary because there are wine snacks, charcuterie, nuts,etc. This is one of my favorite wineries and I am glad to be able to visit for the first time. We stayed for a few hours and had a blast. Cant want to see what events they put on next year when the weather breaks.

I show up with both my classic Jeeps this time at the car show today. my elderly mom was helping me drive my other one so I could bring two cars I ask the young lady if I can park really quick to the side so I can coordinate with my mom and fill the paperwork out . Since my mom doesn't know how to park or what do at these shows and I didn't want to hold up the line as I had cars behind me and my mom. Plus I have to drive her back home so I have to park both cars myself And that asshole lady was extremely rude to me, telling me I have to hurry up and I can't park in those spots even for a min or two just to coordinate with my mom. Is that how I am gonna be treated when I ask to park there for 2 min to get out of the way of other cars ? What a fucking joke What will you have me do sit in the middle of the road ? You know what I am no longer recommending this distillery. You all can kiss my fucking ass. I'm not spending money on the butterscotch whiskey like I have for years anymore. You will be getting some nasty reviews from me on yelp. Google. Facebook and everywhere else I can post !!!!! I won't tolerate be treated like this in front of my mom. !!! I do not need to be treated like that !!!

We went on a Friday morning. We were greeted very warmly and made to feel welcome. We only had…read moreabout a 10 minute wait until the next tour started so we started a tab and had one tasting before the tour which was short but informative. The owner was there and graciously allowed us to take photos with him, he was so friendly and welcoming too. Then we finished our tasting (3oz maximum per person per ABC), taking our cocktails out on the porch where we drank them in rocking chairs enjoying the beautiful day. One of the workers was so sweet and brought us a table and some cups of water as well. Just a really welcoming place with some history. When you're in Culpeper make sure you make this a stop.

Extremely disappointing ending to what should have been a very special day…read more My husband and I were celebrating our 60th birthdays, and our daughter planned a surprise gathering for us at Cooling Pond. We had absolutely no idea anything was planned. We walked in and were completely surprised to see our family and friends waiting for us. It meant so much to us, and we were having a wonderful afternoon. Our group was small and everyone was purchasing drinks and supporting the food truck. For approximately the first two hours, we essentially had the indoor space to ourselves. Even later in the afternoon, there were only a few other groups and plenty of open tables and available space. From what I personally observed, no one was waiting for a table and our group was not lingering or preventing other paying customers from having somewhere to sit. That is why I was so confused when things suddenly changed toward the end of our celebration. Our tables began being cleared even though members of our group were still there, still drinking purchased beverages, and still paying customers. Personal decorations and belongings were being moved, koozies were removed from glasses, and unfinished drinks were being cleared. Things then became extremely uncomfortable between Lori Pope, the co-owner/event coordinator, and our daughter. I did not personally witness every moment of their interaction, so I will only speak to what I know. I saw how upset our daughter and family became, and several relatives who were present told me they witnessed Lori repeatedly aggressively poking/touching our daughter during the confrontation. What had been such a happy celebration ended with everyone quickly gathering our belongings and leaving because we no longer felt welcome. Only afterward did I learn that our daughter had contacted Cooling Pond months in advance, spoken directly with co-owner John about the gathering, and followed up in writing. Lori then messaged me directly afterward, stating that she hadn't known about our gathering and describing what happened between herself and John as a "total miscommunication." Whatever communication problem occurred between the owners was internal to their business. It should never have resulted in our family of paying customers being treated this way. To make the ending even more upsetting, two personal commemorative glasses from our birthday celebration were missing after our hurried departure. We contacted the brewery afterward hoping they would be found and saved for us. My husband and I live locally and had enjoyed Cooling Pond before, which makes this particularly disappointing. We weren't taking over a crowded establishment or occupying space other customers needed. We were a small group celebrating, purchasing food and drinks, and enjoying time together in a venue that had plenty of available space. I am incredibly thankful to our daughter and everyone who came to surprise us. They made our 60th birthdays very special despite how the afternoon ended. Unfortunately, after this experience, my husband and I do not plan to return. As local customers, there are too many other businesses we can support where our family will hopefully feel welcomed, appreciated, and treated with respect.
