We stopped by J&D Farms for SHS senior portraits this week, and it was my first time to be here…read more This place is absolutely gorgeous! Everywhere I looked there were touches of rustic charm. If you want a barn wedding I say you should look no further. It is just perfection! They are affiliated somehow with Joe McEachern photography (I think same owners) so if you have portraits you need for your senior, engagement, pregnancy, or just some gorgeous family shots then this is also an amazing backdrop for those. I browsed through the photography on the Facebook page and they were really nice! I wish I had more details but as I was mainly passing through that's all I can tell you. But I did want to make sure that anyone checking this place out on Yelp knows it is really quite beautiful!

I've only had a couple trips here and both were some local (trade) shows that were set up in booth…read morestyle format so you could walk the show floor and browse the booths that had items you liked. Overall, not to go to deep into the actual show, but to focus in on the actual venue, they really have a nice space. Large floor plan and plenty of space for parking makes this an ideal location for nice easy access. Everything has a nice new feel about it and the grounds seem to be kept up very nicely (landscaping) as well as not any garbage/debris laying around. The event staff that ran the show were very friendly and made it easy to figure out where you needed to be to pay for admission to the event and the layout of booths (in this case tables) were easy to determine where one presentation started and ended. I'd recommend coming here if you have any interest in the trade show that is happening. One recommendation - they should add a calendar page to the web page to show you what events are upcoming ..... other wise really good!

A perfect spot for an intimate event. A peaceful and a quiet place. Fantastic owner.read more

She was very accommodating! Thank you Karli for making it go smoothly, even when HuntsvilleFlorist.com ghosted us with all the bouquets/boutonniere and centerpieces. It could of ruined things but Karli helped release the stress. Music was on point with EVERYTHING. Fun. Entertaining. Worth every penny plus some! 10 out of 10 Stars. Hire Q up the Mic for all your DJ needs! Oh and I over paid her and she was so great, she pointed it out and returned the extra. Now that's professional!

My sister in law rented the Red Barn for a birthday party for her 5 year old son. It did not…read moredisappoint. It is what , it says it is, a Big Red Barn. The area surrounding the barn is beautiful. It's something out of those 500 piece puzzles that grandma puts together. Open fields, rolling hills, small ponds, farm houses, it is pretty peaceful. The party was for about 30 little kids. Being that they have no attention span, the owners of the Red Barn, had a few tricks up their sleeves to keep the kiddies entertained. They gave pony rides, hay rides, and had the kids fish out of the pond. Each kid was given the chance to catch and release one fish. I believe that every kid had the chance to catch a fish. Overall this place is fun and a great venue for a party. The kiddies seem to love it.

The horse ride, the hay ride, and the fishing was all worth the price. The scenery is beautiful. Oh and the big Red Barn was very well kept, clean with no smell and just a plus for cake, ice cream and gifts. We are already planning to have my 9 year old granddaughters 10th birthday at the Barn. Job well done. I would recommend it to anyone.

My family and I live in Huntsville, AL, and 2 years ago, we discovered Weiss Lake and fell in love…read morewith it. Within a month, we had bought a Camper and found a Campground (over in Leesburg) to park it permanently on, but the local co-op Power Company couldn't get the power on for a day or so. So, we looked for somewhere to stay here locally in Cherokee county for a night or two. The other accommodations in town did not seem AT ALL favorable, and had us kind of worried, so we decided to give Bay Springs Motel/Marina a shot, based on a some good reviews on some other websites. (There really are NOT a ton of reviews on local motels in Cherokee County, so it can be a little intimidating, if you are from out of town, and find yourself in this type of situation!) All I can tell you is THIS: We have stayed in a TON of 5-Star Hotels, and of course did not expect anything near that Quality in a small town... But, we were SO SURPRISED. I can tell you that I have NEVER seen such a spotless room, nor such attention to detail, nor such a wonderful Check-in as we received by Ms Terri... This place is TRULY a hidden Gem. We have since been back a 2nd time (when our Camper had a plumbing leak, and we needed a place to stay quickly...) She and her son, Darcy, both live on premises and are there for ANYTHING that you need.. I genuinely wish that more Hotels and Motels were more attentive to detail like this, and gave this kind of genuine, locally-owned, and TRUE hospitality. Do NOT hesitate to stay here. I would give this Motel 6-Stars, but it only allows me FIVE. ;) Truly a great place. Dusty

When I talked to them 4 days before they said that everything was fine and my items were reserved. I'm giving 2 stars because I know they have gotten it right for other people.
