When we drove up that little Mansion we could not believe our Eyes. Directly on the water in a magical setting...something we will never forget and definitely will revisit! We were greeted and got a tour that justified its history. We did have perfect weather conditions, so when we came back from dinner, we enjoyed ourselves for a little walk around the gardens and lake. The view from our balcony was stunning...you really have to pinch yourself...just making sure you're not dreaming...it made us feel happy as can be. The next morning...David prepared a beautiful spread of breakfast. Crab &Swiss cheese omelette, roasted Yukon potato, turkey bacon, country sausage, the bread basket had lavish varieties and customed as well towards my girl who has celiac disease with gluten free options, Room tempered butter, I think even the raspberry marmalade was homemade, fresh berries...I mean nothing was missing and it was put together with such care. Since we were the first of the season...David was able to join us. What a great morning we had thanks to him...thank you so very much!! A must see venue, that is highly recommended!

Katie was easy to work and we arranged everything via email and phone. FOOD is AMAZING! Flavorful crab soup, seafood paella, short ribs and large crab cakes were part of our catered menu. Taste Events set up the buffet for us at our beach rental and everything was fresh and hot. My family could not stop raving about the food. Would highly recommend this company for any event large or small. We were a small party (only 10 of us) and the serve and food was excellent. Thanks Katie and the rest of the Taste Events team for making our 50th birthday memorable!

It sits off the street with minimal lighting at the entrance so I initially drove past it. Once inside, I was really impressed with how the organizers transformed the space. It's really flexible & perfect for small to medium sized events. It's literally a blank slate awaiting your creative vision. You can comfortably seat roughly 100 guests. Free parking is available onsite and there are a couple outdoor areas available for ceremonies as well. Finally, the cost is reasonable. If you can host your event Monday - Thursday, there's even more cost savings. Staff members are available to help and man the bar. Check them out!

We stayed in the Bayview House with four adults and four kids very comfortably. Great AC, comfy mattresses, tons of bedding and pillows and space for fun.

We will never forget our week here and will happily come back. Thank you Vaux Hall Farm!!

Have had multiple visits over the years seeing this establishment grow and have enjoyed them…read more However this was fourth and worse igloo visit. It was not clear on the website when making reservations that the menus posted were not for the igloos. Even items we asked about on the menus provided were not available (menu said available until 3 pm in igloo, it was 200 but still told no- yet we also couldn't get the steak or rockfish in the igloo. As well, previous igloo visit options provided fondue for 2 (not 5!) and could be altered for one meat and one seafood eater however this time we would've had to at $240 to get both. At minimum $120+$10-$12 extra to add one skewer. Although the ambiance is an "experience" it was not a satisfying culinary experience. As well, it was not clear we couldn't divide our checks up amongst each couple as most all restaurants can do. (Can only do 2 checks, we had 3 couples) It was more cumbersome on the waitress and us than just charging each couple one bill, we weren't sharing food or said put half this on each etc. it was clearly just 3 couples. As for what we did get... if crab dip hadn't had a shell in it I wouldn't have believed it had any crab in it, just cheese flavor. Steak skewer was well done (no choice given) yet veggies were aldente (to say the least). Wine was good but limited selection. I really don't understand why I can eat one think inside yet can't 20' away we would've had a much better experience if some accommodating had been offered on any of the above issues.

Really cute winery setting, with the draw being the outdoor area and live music. Great vibes and…read morelocation! The food was hit or miss - starting with the good, the sausage board was tasty but more of a snack situation and the flatbread looked delicious (and my family said it tasted delicious too) but they were out of all the gluten free options unfortunately. The cheese board was definitely the biggest disappointment - it was $50 and came out just lumped with cheese and meat on two boards. For the price I was expecting something special with the accompaniments they mentioned but it was one of the most basic boards I've been served. The cheeses were okay and same with the meats, no prosciutto or fruit or really anything to warrant the $50. Bummer since you want cheese with your wine!

You can either eat inside or outside "al fresco" which is dog friendly. The Groove was delightful from start to finish. They offer live music and funky bingo Wednesday. ( check events website). They have a great special on Monday's a beer, burger , and fries $10.00, and weekday lunches pick 2 for $8.00 to $10.00. 1. Fantastic hospitality set the tone immediately 2. The poutine is high level upgrade with twelve hour smoked pulled brisket and homemade gravy 3. The twist on the Reuben with the smoked brisket on Rye Amazing 4. The smoked Cuban on Tribeca bread over the top 5. The orecchiette pasta salad was the best pasta salad I have ever had creamy and tangy goodness I highly recommend visiting The Groove on the Delaware/ Maryland line just follow the smoke. Better to wait for Barbecue than to have barbecue wait for you!
