And wait until you see those stars at night! The owners are lovely people. You can tell that they really care about the horses under their care and the grounds are well maintained. If you would like a beautiful, quiet space to spend quality time alone with your horse, your family - or both - do yourself a favor and come to Crossroads Ranch - you will not regret it!

I can only speak on the boarding side of things, but you're paying a high price (which was raised…read moreseveral times even after paying your board for that month, they would raise it again and expect you to pay the extra) for a run down facility. The site online does not represent the property in the least. Upon arrival, we walked the property and had to clean it up, pound in and/or remove nails, picked up boards with nails sticking out, blocked off sections with sharp slabs of metal and misc. other unsafe objects. At the time, the site online said hay was included in the monthly price- which it was not. I provided all my own feed with the amounts that were to be fed morning and night- I found that my horses were not getting fed morning and night and they weren't even getting fed what I provided. When we returned after visiting family for the holidays, my horses were out of water- the feed I purchased before we left had hardly been fed- there were signs that the horses had gotten into the tack room and were free feeding themselves (I was praying none of them were going to colic) but the worst part of it was that they were all underweight and acted starved. I could clearly see that they were not cared for. In my opinion, if you're going to charge a competitive rate, your facility needs to be safe. And if they say they will feed your horses- I expect that to happen. 10/10 I would not recommend boarding your horses at this facility.

This place would be so perfect for a family reunion or a high school reunion or a wedding really fancy pants event. The sound is great if you're a musician looking for a great stage to play on, you've found it.

Wow! This newly-renovated & reopened event venue is just amazing! When I first moved to Athens, I…read moreknow I saw the closed-down version of the place at a distance. It always intrigued me. But I was thrilled to know that they reopened it for multi-purpose events. I first came during the soft opening during the Fiddlers' Reunion weekend & saw a live concert happening. I also came for the "Art On The Bricks" event. It's neat that they can move the stage, since for the soft opening the stage was on the right brick wall (with the audience portable fold-out chairs situated so that the left & right were further apart than the front & back), & for "Art On The Bricks" the stage was on the back wall (with the windows & view of the town square parking lot behind it). For the art show, there was more space to look at tables of displayed artwork, munch on finger foods (catered by Railway Cafe, next door), sip on drinks (wine, water, or tea), & you could mingle around or sit down (upstairs in the balcony or at some standing-friendly downstairs tables). The restrooms are also nice, & very well-maintained, with plenty of multiple stalls. The upstairs balcony is really neat. It's a great place to sit & eat at small tables (or move them together for bigger groups), or you can sit at a bar-like table overlooking the balcony if you have a smaller group. Overlooking the balcony was an incredible view! I'm staying posted on future events held here, because I definitely want to keep coming back!

Amazing new local gem! My parents have been eating here on a weekly basis since this place opened…read more My dad took me on a brief tour, & I saw that it is not only gonna be a great event venue, but they have a nice menu with plenty of good choices at their food trucks. They even accept credit cards (via the Square app, I think?), so it isn't just cash only. They have picnic tables set up in an indoor barn or gin, which is great for those days when the weather is not as nice. But they also have some tables in a really nice lawn area with an outdoor stage, sand volleyball court, tether ball pole, the game where you throw some balls onto rungs of a ladder (I don't know the official name for that game), & corn hole. Currently, the restroom situation is a row of 3 port-o-potties, but they have plans to put in some permanent restrooms. I like the food truck food vendor (or at least the one I have tried so far) with the options for different types of hamburgers. The different varieties of tater tots are also delicious! So far I have only tried the Asian Tots, which is vegetarian-friendly. They also have a grownup grilled cheese sandwich (just let them know that you want it vegetarian ahead of time, so they can know to leave off any bacon). The drink options are plastic bottles (various cokes, teas, & water) iced in a cooler, but they also have eco-friendly (non-plastic, compostable) disposable cutlery, napkins, & to-go containers. They are still open to experimenting with new menu items. As they get more established, & grow with the different phases of the building projects, I definitely want to keep coming back here! I could even imagine a small gift shop corner, where they could sell T-shirts for the venue, different events, &/or different vendors. This might even be a place to consider for a birthday party or a summer concert.
