The size of these gardens are amazing and the time it takes to walk them took my family and I nearly two hours. It is a relaxing place to visit if you want some time away to read, write, or think.

I attended a wedding at the Old Bag Factory, which is... an old bag factory! I think the name is…read morekind of funny and not the most appealing, but it is what it is! The building itself is very large and made up of several shops. The venue space is upstairs and also very large. The ceremony took place in a room with lots of great natural light. The only complaint is that the big pillars obscured the view of the wedding party for some guests. The reception happened right down the hall from the ceremony area, with the buffet line, hors d'oeuvres, bar, gift table, and guestbook table lining the space between. Everything was spread out to give enough room without feeling like you had to walk a mile to get anywhere. The bartenders were great and super friendly. We were seated by a very loud HVAC unit which made it tough to hear the MC and some of the speeches. The middle of the room was the dance floor area, which was pretty small but not a lot of people were dancing. The venue was simple and a little industrial, but a nice blank canvas for decor. Finally, the parking was a little cramped with not a lot of spaces; I believe some people had to park across the street so try to get there early if you need extra time.

This was my first time here but the staff was very helpful and pointed us to the wedding. The entire wedding and venue were beautiful!! The exposed wood and white lights created a rustic feel for the wedding guests. The food and drinks were both delicious...I think they were from the restaurant at the bag factory. There are different shops/ restaurant on the first floor at the bag factory. I would love to go back and see what else they have to offer. The Old Bag Factory-- great place to spend the afternoon or host a special event!!

I went here with the kids on a advertised "free Sunday". The woman at the door told us it would be…read morea 40 minute wait for the next tour. She mentioned nothing about paying. We went and ate fast food near by, then returned. When we returned she asked for $40 dollars ($10 a piece cuz we were a group of 4). I asked about the advertised free family Sundays and she said "we aren't doing that anymore". She was very rude and didn't even apologize. IF it's not something they offer that's fine but then they need to take it off their Facebook page. Also she could have been nice.

The name has changed, but the inside is still beautiful. There are only a handful of vendors…read moreinside, but there's a decent little restaurant/cafe and a burgeoning home brewing supply store that seem to keep this place going. It's a great place to take the kids on a cold rainy day too, with lots of space to walk around. If you ask, you can probably go all the way to the top of the cupola and get a neat view of Elkhart county farmland. They have an outdoor farmer's market on certain days when the weather allows and even have a few concerts lined up over the next couple weeks. There are a few shops on the second floor along with an area for kids birthday parties and another area for receptions. The food from the restaurant has always been good (Boars Head meats) but it will take some time to get your food as there are only a few people running the show. Everyone is friendly and helpful and if you're into brewing beer, cider or making wine their brewery supply shop is well stocked and probably has anything you could need. This is a neat place and definitely worth checking out!

When we came in…read moreand placed our drink order, our waiter came by and took my water for some reason, he then proceeded to drop off a plate of sliced butter. We ordered pasta dishes with no bread, so the plate of ice cold butter slices was so confusing. The pasta was honestly really plain, and the shrimp in the pasta still came with its hard shells in the tail. There was barely any sauce to where the noodles almost looked bare. Water would have helped, however the waiter decided I wasn't worthy of the water. The inside of the place is absolutely gorgeous however, beautiful lighting

Came here for a friend's wedding and was pleasantly surprised at the area. Located in a slightly…read moresecluded area but surrounded by a multitude of trees and quiet from the outside word. There is plenty of parking (with signage) and even an overflow parking area. The outdoor ceremony location has a turf ground and surrounded by trees. The turf made it easy to walk with heels and the trees helped provide more of a romantic secluded environment. The reception area had an outdoor tent area (for the post ceremony appetizers and drinks) and an indoor area (for the formal dinner). Can't say anything from a planning/organization standpoint but everything went smoothly from a guest's perspective and it was a lovely area to attend a wedding.
