My husband and I were camping at Maryhill State Park last week and we visited the Maryhill Art…read moremuseum and afterward we went over to the Maryhill Winery to purchase a bottle of wine to go with our dinner that evening. This was our first visit to the winery. We ended up buying two extra bottles to take home. One of those bottles had been discounted to $15 since it was a 2022 vintage. We paid the cashier to with our debit card and my husband put the receipt into his wallet, so I didn't see it until two days later when I was doing our banking. That was when I noticed we had been charged $25 for the $15 bottle of the discounted wine. We had even mentioned to the cashier that we were happy to find one of our favorites on their discount shelf. I called the winery on Saturday morning and left a voicemail regarding the overcharge for the bottle of wine. Then I went to Maryhill Winery website and emailed a message to their customer service. Later that day, I received an email from the wine club administrator advising me that she had forwarded my message directly to the winery. She had also set up a shopping account for me and when I added my information to the account, I saw that there was a 10% discount on my first order. I wrote back to her and let her know that all I really wanted the refund, so I included pictures of our receipt and the bottle of wine showing the discount price sticker which we were overcharged for. It's been four days and no word from anyone regarding the overcharge for the wine. I have no use for the shopping account either since I can buy Maryhill wines cheaper in our local grocery stores. We should have gone over to Biggs Junction and purchased our wine there because all the small grocery store's Maryhill wines were priced at least $10 a bottle cheaper than at the winery's. We realize that we should have checked our receipt before leaving the winery, but at least I caught the error and notified them of it. Four days later, Maryhill Winery's customer service has not deemed my request for a refund worthy of a reply. After reading other one-star and two-star reviews on their restaurant food and service, it appears that we aren't the only ones unhappy with their customer service. Needless to say, my husband and I will not ever visit the winery again.

It's also very kid- and dog-friendly, which made the visit even more enjoyable since my daughter had her dogs.
