I'm hesitant to leave a review here because this place has long been viewed by our group of friends…read moreas a hidden gem, and we'd like to keep it hidden. But if any place deserves recognition for doing everything right, it's the incredible people who make French Woods a home away from home. It started as a place where a dozen friends, living around the metropolitan area, could spend a weekend golfing, drinking, and telling stories around a campfire. It quickly morphed into something much more. To start, the golf course offers what city courses never could; a round in under 5 hours, wide open fairways, and no sounds other than the sounds of nature and the occasional expletive from an errant shot. The fact that cabins, which are more like 2 story homes, are located right on the course, provides an unparalleled convenience and comfort. All of this can be found through a simple google search. What google couldn't tell you, is the unmatched hospitality by the owner, Russell, and everyone who makes the clubhouse feel like a family waiting to greet you at the turn. Linda and Angie are always there to give you a good ribbing based on how terrible you looked off the first tee. But they're also there to walk you through the days specials, which never cease to feel like the best home cooked meal you've had in ages. Google also couldn't tell you quite how it feels to tee the ball up on the elevated 16th hole. To look around at the beautiful landscape and think "you know, it just doesn't get any better than this." Nor what it feels like to tee a second one up when you inevitably slice that first one into the woods trying to drive the green. It couldn't tell you that feeling you get taking a hot shower after playing 36 holes, cracking a cold beer and stepping outside to the campfire being assembled with the delivered quarts of wood courtesy of the O'Malley boys. It couldn't tell you that after sharing stories around the fire and passing around a bottle of whiskey, that if you laid down in the cool grass, you could see the clearest sky filled with stars. It couldn't tell you that drinking beer all day and killing a bottle of Jameson at the campfire would make it difficult to make your 8:30 tee time you promised Linda you'd make. Nor could it tell you that luckily the screwdrivers and bloody Marys in the clubhouse are made with magical elixirs that help pull a man back together just in time to slice your opening drive into the reeds on the first hole. Better make sure to grab a breakfast sandwich too, you'll need it around the third hole. It certainly could not tell you about the agony these vicious greens sometimes impart. It certainly would leave out what it's like to hit your tee shot over the water of the par 3 9th as the rest of your group watches on with cheers and jeers. It wouldn't be able to explain being up by 1 heading into the 18th hole only to see your tee shot land directly in the pond on the right side of the fairway. All of these need to be discovered for yourself. For our group, which has ballooned to upwards of 24 people at times, it's that treatment like we're family that keeps us coming back. We'll continue to try and make new memories and build upon our current traditions such as our Ryder cup and classic cup tournaments, the barefoot two club walking holes as the sun goes down, the tradition unlike any other of shotgunning a beer on the 7th (and 16th hole), the s'mores mix around the fire, the big kevs bbq on Friday nights, and the runs around beautiful French woods in honor of our beloved Jeff Garroway. We've come to love this place, and everyone who makes it what it is. Forever grateful, The Bender Boys

If you asked me to describe this venue in two words, it would be easy: Beauty and Heart. Yes, the…read moreThe Natural Gardens is a meticulously landscaped, beautiful dream setting in the Catskills. But the owners, Steve and Cathy, are what MAKE this venue absolute perfection. This property is their home, and they care for their guests like their own family - they put their heart and soul into this venue, and do the same when caring for their bridal couple. My husband and I were originally looking for a venue in Hudson Valley, but our guest size, desire for a weekend event, and Fall-timed nuptials prompted us to expand our search further into the Catskills. Thank goodness it did! When we arrived at the venue for our first visit, it was September, and the grounds were still beautifully lush and green, with blooming flowers. We were quickly won over by the treelines, ponds, and gardens. Steve is a horticulturist, and has cultivated every inch of the property with love - and it shows. We knew it would the tree-lines would be perfect for our fall wedding, complete with yellow, orange, and red foliage (and it was!). On that first day, Steve and Cathy took us on a tour of the property, and we loved that there were plenty of options to host a number of events, and have it feel like a 'different' venue for each aspect of our wedding weekend. They also had plenty of recommendations for us - from caterers to local hotel/private home accommodations. We booked with them a little more than a year in advance, and they stayed highly responsive and communicative right up until our wedding weekend. They also let us know that we were welcome to come back at any time to take photos (including engagement pictures), or make plans for our wedding weekend. We didn't end up doing so because we live in New York City, but it was helpful to know the option was there! During our wedding weekend, we ended up using the property for two days: On Friday, we held a Color Wars style game day for our guests, followed by a welcome party dinner in the forest. On Saturday, we had an outdoor ceremony, followed by a reception in the barn/event center, topped off with a s'mores bonfire under the stars. The weekend was magical, in large part thanks to Steve and Cathy. Unfortunately, we had a wedding planner who under-delivered, and Steve and Cathy were well aware of the stress and hardship that this caused us. But they made sure that we were well-taken care of, and graciously took on MUCH MORE than they should have had to to ensure the weekend was as successful as possible. From ensuring our cake was on display for our guests, to golf-carting us around the property to get photos/video in as many settings as possible, to combing the property for lost items the morning after, Steve and Cathy went above and beyond our expectations. And our guests absolutely LOVED all the photo ops with the beautiful fall scenery. We couldn't have picked a better spot to start our forever. Thank you, Steve and Cathy! PS - A few things to know/be mindful of: There's no mobile/wi-fi service (yet), but they are working on it. We actually loved that we (and our guests) were able to completely disconnect. It made for a better party! There is an onsite bridal house with plenty of couches, a bedroom, and sizeable makeup/hair space for wedding day. This bridal house was my absolutely LIFESAVER - it was a great place to retreat, get my zen, and prepare for the long day of wedding festivities. Steve and Cathy are constantly making upgrades to the venue - so ask about what they may have in store for your target dates. In between our booking and our actual wedding weekend, they built out some restrooms by the bonfire area which was also near we were had our "games." It was a perfect addition that was totally unexpected!

They worked nonstop, handling details large and small for our frankly, very disorganized group. They really are amazing! If you're considering Natural Gardens for any kind of event, I strongly recommend that you come and tour the property because the website simply cannot do justice to this stunning place. As you walk the grounds you'll find yourself thinking "This is the loveliest spot" each time you round another bend. The beautiful color palette in the trees, flowers and grasses will change with every visit. Cathy and Steve seem to be constantly improving the venue--we had a great cocktail hour after the ceremony at their new outdoor reception area. Some of our guests were the first to stay in the glamping cottages. Cathy catered our Friday night dinner. She's a really talented chef--and you'll be able to check out her culinary skills at the tavern they're opening soon on the property. We had a truly wonderful experience. There are so many choices one has to make for a wedding. The best decision we made was to hold it at The Natural Gardens.
