Lounsbury House - Looking Out: (Room Reserved For Cocktail Prep)

Lounsbury House

A community center in many towns and cities is an out dated school or an old industrial building…read morewith a meeting room or a gym. In Ridgefield Ct. a beautiful estate hosts the community's events. Known better as the Lounsbury House, this beautifully preserved property is the place to have your wedding or event. Originally named Grove Lawn, the Lounsbury House at 316 Main St., was built in 1896 by a former Connecticut governor, Phineas Lounsbury, who was born and raised in Ridgefield. While he attended the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, also known as the Columbian Exposition, he saw a replica of the Connecticut State Building on display. He commissioned the original Bridgeport architect to build a replica of the Connecticut State Building, so that upon his retirement from politics, he would have it to serve as his residence in Ridgefield. The Georgian Revival house exhibits the elegance and style he wanted to reflect Connecticut's hospitality. Lounsbury and his wife Jenny lived and entertained their friends at the house until his death in 1920. Since they did not have any children, the house was passed onto their heirs. Eventually, the house was purchased by the Town of Ridgefield. In 1953, it became the Ridgefield Veterans Memorial Community Center. Now on the National Register of Historic Places, the Lounsbury House is a non-profit association and proceeds from its fund-raisers, membership fees and rentals go towards the preservation, maintenance and operational cost of the home. I was present for the Ridgefield "Gone Country" barbeque contest which raises funds for the local Rotary club. The association hosts house tours, concerts, luncheons, picnics, fireworks and more. The July 20, 2018 Lobster & Clambake featuring 1 1/2 lb Maine lobsters, steamers and muscles is not to be missed.

Unpleasant to work with. Venue itself is nice though. Would not recommend to others. ​read more

Upon arriving, you give the last name of the person who bought the tickets. A group of my friends…read moreand I have been going for years. So thought I'd share my experiences. Each show has been great! Of course I have my favorites. But essentially you're getting to see Broadway shows in Ridgefield. They have a snack bar where you can get soda and alcoholic beverages. And also munchies. I however use the time to chat with my friends. So after you pass the snack bar, you can enter the theater. The seats are wonderful. Close enough to the stage that you can see everything at once. There is intermission halfway through. Most of us either visit the restrooms or get more refreshments. Once it's over, it's a quick exit to the parking lot. If you chat for more than 15 minutes afterwards, you'll be alone in the parking lot, lol We have season tickets each year. This means we book our seats early. Give them a try, you'll be glad you did.

Watched the play "working" in March 2019. The actors were all great, the theatre itself is large…read moreand roomy and not a bad seat in the house. A lot of drinks you can purchase, I had a local beer from nod hill on tap and it was great. The sound system was clear and just right I could hear every line. The only problem was the play itself very boring, the video highlights were the best part and very well done. There just wasn't any story at all, fortunately only 80 minutes so I got thru it. Would certainly return for a different play.

My daughter just had her wedding at Le Chateau. To say it was a beautiful, impeccable…read more wedding is an understatement. We've received rave reviews from our guests saying everything from it was the most elegant wedding to praising the food and service. The venue and staff was way beyond our expectations. Having worked in the wedding business most of my life I've been to hundreds of weddings. My father was a wedding photographer and I was a wedding planner at a venue. In all that time I cannot remember having such a perfect experience. Sarah, Claudia, Debbie, Tori and there staff were the loveliest people I've ever worked with. The food was like going to a 5 star restaurant. When we visited the venue I thought it was very pretty but lit up at night it was exquisite. Dreams do come true.

I attended my friend's wedding here this weekend. In addition to the fact that the property is…read morestunningly beautiful & huge. The food was impressive especially the appetizers and desserts. The bathroom was spotless and the venue was perfectly decorated for the holidays. More than anything, the staff was incredibly attentive, not just to the bride and groom, but to the guests. At the end of the reception, my friends and I couldn't get an Uber or a cab to go back to the hotel. The staff was genuinely concerned and helpful. We finally found an uber to come to pick us up but it was more than anything hour, staff were so kind and patient. Really impressive.

Per my last sentence, be sure you go online and KNOW what you want to do and what you want to spend! You can 'easily' spend a lot of money here - on the other hand, if you know what you're doing you can have a nice afternoon/evening here at a reasonable cost. Again, go on the website beforehand. I can't stress this enough! Their wine is expensive as are 'some' seating options so be advised. We were actually there 3x's this spring/summer. Went to a big party under one of their large structured tents, then we had a small party under an umbrella table, and then went up again this past weekend and just sat in chairs and caught a sunset and amazing dinner from Greek Cave food truck. The food trucks (always 2) vary, but they list whose there on the website along with any entertainment (extra cost). Very annoying is the fact you can't call there! You have to text or email and their response(s) are NOT always timely! Unprofessional that you can't call and speak to someone.

Unfortunately, this was not a place I'd want to return to for wine. Allowing people to smoke cigars…read moreoutside made the experience unpleasant, especially when you're trying to enjoy wine. The hostess station was also unnecessarily complicated and honestly felt a little crazy to navigate.Also if their is a band insidedont go inside. So unbelievable loud!!!!!! On top of that, the wine itself was not very good. Overall, between the cigar smoke, frustrating reservation system, and disappointing wine, this just isn't a place I would recommend if you're looking for a good wine experience.

What a nice find…read more Took my daughter here today, as she enjoyed our trip to MoMA a few years ago, and she likes to look at artwork, plus, she recently got into the art board game Dixit, so I figured this would be a nice treat. The museum is small, about four rooms for exhibitions which take no more than an hour to traverse. The staff is friendly and inviting, and each room has an appointed docent to help explain things and tell you about the artwork. we liked the variety - it's not just paintings, and it's not just sculpture - there is a blend of everything, and like most museums there is an explanation of each piece nearby so you can have information and draw your own observances. On our visit, the whole museum was virtually empty - we saw a total of four other guests - plenty of quiet space to enjoy the displays. What my daughter liked the most was the interactive studio (no extra fee) where guests at the museum can create their own art from a room full of materials - it's like going back to the art room of your old elementary school! My brother and I got in on the creative process and sat at a table along side my daughter and enjoyed some art time with cray pas, scissors, papers of all kinds, and various tapes and glues. My daughter then donated her art piece to the museum and the docents delightfully told her they would hang it up in the art studio for other guests to see! It was a very nice gesture for them to tell her this, and the smile on her face was worth the price of admission.

This museum was so mind blowing! I brought my friend here who is a workaholic and he said he…read moredefinitely needed this. The staff is very knowledgeable and helped so much with our journey through this magical place! From the outside it looks so small, but there is sooooo much to see on the inside. We didn't even finish the whole thing in the 2.5 hours that we were there. I loved the prison program art. How amazing!! I hope to be able to volunteer here one day :) Also, I must note that we ended up being there a little later than 5pm, but they didn't rush us to leave and wished us a nice day once departing. I can't wait to come back!
