The bushes are hydrangeas and photograph fabulously and are overwhelmingly impressive to any guest that attends. Hoda and his wife are exquisite hosts and their catering services are fabulous and delicious. I would recommend this venue as the first to be reviewed if you're considering getting married. Mother of the bride review. Thank you !

BUYER BEWARE ! the negative comments here are true every word of it. Tristin B. (& others)…read morecomments on racial/prejudice it is true I sensed it the moment I met Hoda and it was a nightmare. Rebecca R. comments are accurate too. These owners are foreigners and there is a culture clash btw the value of american service/expectation and their racial and cultural prejudices and method of opperation. The venue is beautiful and historic hey you're in the NW nature beauty is everywhere take your pick. **Under no circumstances use Hoda's catering services portions and very small below industry size std. Quantity of food per person is very small altho you pd for a lavish feast. She and her team grab up the food quickly after being served and it disappears never to be seen again it's like she's rushing you out of the facility. I felt all food should have been left out and hors d'oeuvres relocated and left out for guest why they were taken to the kitchen and disappeared I have no idea. Even tho you have pd top dollar for the food you don't see it. From my research industry std price is $50-$150 per person Cape Horn is above $200/person and it's more like a small plate per person, the food is nothing special either and they don't want to box anything for you to take with you, you get push back when you ask. I felt it was frozen and heated and dressed. I wondered if it's being reserved or what's going on. At the tasting one thing was presented at the wedding it was a different thing served of lesser quality & very basic. No entre meats were ever given at tasting so you have no idea what's coming day of as a shock. There are no pictures shown of the food before you are served it beware! Hoda said tea/coffee/water and fruit is std with the menu when you pay suddenly it only comes with coffee only (tea is less than $5 for an entire wedding's need and why is self serve water not an option) the fruit didn't look that fresh and presentation was std they could have up the game for a wedding and added a fruit dressing. Food served will not make a full rounds around the table. It's served in small plates less than 4oz per person when according to my research std for catering is 4-8 oz which is about the size of a deck of cards or a woman's palm size. what you get is at best 2 oz. 1/2 the size recommended and quite thin. Plates served for approx 10 are small are really should be for 5 persons. I have noticed the entire summer to fall callendar is clear so that says that some how folks out there know the deal here STAY AWAY! There's a sign to the Kitchen that says "staff only" that tells me there have been probs before and other patrons have been asking what's going on with the food I pd for it's done a disappearing act. While what ever happened I can overlook or ignore shorting the food quantity and things surrounding the menu was totally unacceptable unnecessary as you are paying for a good menu and a very nice profit to Cape Horn no need to serve small plates for a extra high price. There's a mention that if you use Hoda's you get a discount that's a marketing gimick and never seen in any way. *something to bear in mind this is an inconvenience to guest to attend in Stevenson many people have to get 2 nites of hotel etc and live out a suitcase to attn your wedding. My suggestion is any name brand place in town the nines, ritz, Sheraton, marriott etc, Persimmon golf course etc with a name comes a certain surety. Cape Horn is not a functioning kitchen like other places that are 7 days a wk and that adds to issues. Most of all do some research and get yourself a good caterer with a good references. Day of assign someone to keep an eye of what's being done with food and what you'd like for pics your wedding coordinator is my suggestion think it thru a wedding has unexpected surprises as a host. You dont want the highlite of your wedding scammed away from you. My motive for posting here is so you are not scammed you pd big bucks with the intention of having a great time with your guest and a very nice menu that's not happening even tho you pd. You pay approx a month before the event and there is no incentive on the day of for the venue to deliver. Hope you wedding day is a dream and this helps you in some way. Weddings have a lot of opportunist in every industries along the way beware and be prepared. Good luck in the best way possible

The entire experience was quiet, restful, and full of thoughtful touches. I can't recommend Carson Ridge Luxury Cabins enough.

Not only had the entire venue really come to life with all of the decorations, but before the ceremony my hubby and I got to take a look inside the barn and I couldn't help but cry at how incredibly gorgeous it was. The Adeline Farms team really made everything more gorgeous than I could have ever imagined! Annika was with me (bride) the entire time making sure I had what I needed and was on time. She was so sweet and helpful! Matt the bartender was just the absolute best! The entire night he made sure my hubby and I had the drink of our choice in hand and he was so nice to everyone.

I tried their Thanksgiving "Sides-Giving" in 2024 to ease my stress level of preparing a perfect turkey & side dishes. Alpine Events provided me such an impressive spread for my guests! Their chicken apple sausage stuffing was a show stopper, their roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes with gravy had everyone swooning. And their relish tray was so thoughtfully put together, fresh and HUGE! I stashed that cranberry / raspberry spread just for myself, late at night, atop those delightful rolls. So good. Bonus: When I picked up my order, I was astounded at how lovely their dining area is. Gorgeous high ceilings with rustic exposed beams, lots of windows allowing the natural light to dance in and they've got their liquor license! Where have I been to miss this? Can't wait to sign myself up for their next pop up dinner. I'm hooked!!

They also have two golf simulators if that's more your jam.

Park amenities include a children's playground, open lawns, picnic tables, clean public restrooms, a gravelly beach, boat launch ramp, and marina. We often drive out to just sit and watch the windsurfers, various birds and boats go in and out. Unique views of the Bridge of the Gods is just downriver too. The Marine Park offers a variety of indoor and outdoor venues for special events for groups of 5 to 500. Such a nice place for a birthday party, baby shower, family reunion or even a wedding. Make sure to tour the Historical Museum while you're there and see the first steam locomotive of the Oregon Territory, the Oregon Pony. The Marine Park also serves as the meeting and launching point for the Columbia Gorge Racing Association's sailing events, and racing takes place in the waters upriver from the beach at the east end of the Park. Check their webpage for next year's Regatta in July. This is world-class sailboat racing in a world-famous big wind venue and not to be missed. Many professional sailors say it's "the best place in the world to sail."
