Though it was pouring the day of our tour, I never felt like Luann was rushing through, even as we stood outside with umbrellas to see some of the details. My husband had so many questions and she was armed with an answer for every one, even knowing the history of the unique furniture pieces inside. You could tell she had a genuine interest in the house and was happy to share what she knew. The weather kept us from taking the woodland path back to the visitor center but I am excited to go back and walk the grounds.

Our tour guy was quite knowledgeable and the house is impressive in its own way. We bought tickets upon arrival from the ticket office which was staffed by a young lady who was terribly rude and dismissive. We were initially quite taken aback. The café wasn't opened in the gift shop was rather limited.

We stayed in the lodging in Bldg 106 which allows pets. Our 3 night stay only cost us $102, so you cannot beat the price. It is a quiet and peaceful place with great fishing in a large pond. It is right next to the Cheat River. You can eat in the dining hall for regular military price or eat in the bar/grill area. They have a small post exchange for essentials. The staff are helpful and you are close to Kingwood which has a Walmart. There are also cottages thar can be rented.

Once you pass all the small towns and winding roads, it opens up to camp Dawson, which is really actually a nice little place. The event center has all sorts of amenities.

The Liberty Café has actually good food for the right price as well and the staff was very helpful. We are using the classrooms for a conference and they are very nice. We set up and the Wi-Fi actually works. I would like to do more training here in the future.

Our daughter's wedding was held June 29, 2024. The venue is beautiful and well layed out. The…read morebeautiful farmhouse accommodated five couples for the bridal party, and the day of the wedding, the Bridesmaids for hair and make up. Food was delicious! Dessert was pies, and they were delicious. The after-wedding bonfire was wonderful where friends and family relaxed with a drink, s'more and snack choices (by bride and groom) provided by the venue. However, there were several issues that we encountered during the day of the wedding, primarily involving the venue's owner. I feel that Leigh Clark, owner and planner, would serve her guests better if she didn't directly deal with them. From the get-go, while trying to corral our guests to the deck area for the ceremony because of rain, she belittled them and was condescending, making facial expressions and rolling her eyes, while using a microphone.... especially for our group photo. Guests mentioned to us that the staff began clearing the hors'doerves well before the guests were called up to the reception. The first issue was with the dozens upon dozens of our homemade cookies. These were outdoors several hours before the 5 pm ceremony.... many of which became soft and crumbling due to the humidity. No food should ever be left outside, uncovered. Tables were set, and water and wine glasses (for the toast) were filled in advance.... making the sparkling wine flat and the water warm. Furthermore, not one server visited tables in my immediate view...the whole barn...to refill water or wine. Red and white wine were to be served. We were also told that the barn would "be cool, trust me," (Leigh Clark). However, one corner fan was not turned on, the other was broken, and all the windows were closed. It was a hot day made worse by no air flow. I went to reach table stains the windows and told them to open them. It did rain right before the ceremony, but there was time during the ceremony to open these windows and create a cross draft. The flow of the evening was rushed and out of order and not what we had requested. The "money" dance was done first when it was expressly stated during the planning stage that the dance must be reserved for the very end of the wedding. At that point, the bouquet and garter toss, as well as the cake cutting, happened in short order. Leigh felt the cake cutting was an insignificant part of the reception despite us saying that it has been a fun tradition in our family. We also paid to have welcome bags set up for guests to take back to their overnight accommodations. They were completely forgotten, which puts me in a predicament of what to do with them. There are no handicap parking spots and no clear parking spaces. The venue needs this desperately, especially to make easy access for the golf cart shuttles. (Gravel can be spraypainted.) Leigh and her limited staff, along with our paid photographer, thought it appropriate to sit at outdoor guest tables to eat. Staff should never take seating away from guests, especially to eat. Ever!!! Sadly, many guests came to us during the reception, informing us that Leigh was rude to them, not knowing who she was. At one point, Leigh became highly agitated with the parking situation and golf cart shuttle accessibility. She was recorded by one guest exclaiming she was "f......g done." I was also told by Leigh as she carted me to the farmhouse to retrieve a pair of shoes that if I was longer than a minute, she would leave me there and I would have to walk back. (In the heat, in my gown.) When we came in Monday to retrieve leftovers, I was told that although the soft pretzels and pepperoni rolls can leave with us, the graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate could not because of food safety issues. With everybody touching both the pretzels and the s'mores, I couldn't see where the food safety issue came into play. We paid for these bonfire snacks and left with half of them.

I definitely want to go back and take a tour and/or come for lunch or tea. Adaland is a historic gem in the middle of nowhere.

Anyway.....Chef Taz is an amazing artist, creating epicurean delights (what I as a foodie call, well, FOOD )! Chef rules over a secluded cafe in the middle of a private event venue, with the cafe being accessible from 5 to 8pm Tuesday thru Thursday. All of the extensive offerings are scratch prepared and served pleasing to both the eye and the palate. This is a very casual venue, outside tables during the season, indoor for inclement weather. Prices are very reasonable, portions are generous (and he's not trying to compensate for quality by quantity). Children are welcome, lottsa very close parking, there is a small bar serving prepared cocktails, beer and wine (Woodbridge at $6 a glass....DEAL). Very casual attire....shorts de rigue. Chef Taz is the perfect host, and once the rush abates in the back of the house, he will often times visit tables for feedback. The Staff provide attention to details and make you tired just watching them zip around. Great people ! Check out the Oak Lodge website for venue details....would be a most excellent venue for a wedding (booked into 2028 already). And Chef Taz holds sway over the event menu also. Arrive a bit early and wander the grounds (check out the glamping cabins), settle back with a libation of choice and await an amazing offering. You can thank me later. Kevin
