    Relaxing atmosphere with plenty of outdoor seating and parking. Wine slushies are fantastic, and they let you mix different ones together. Bartenders are knowledgeable on what to mix together to get the best flavors! Very pretty area, and they had live music today. All around great vibe, will be back soon!

    The vibe was lively on a Sunday with live music. I loved talking with Daniel as I was going through my wine tasting. Easy drive from Charlotte and fantastic way to spend the afternoon. 10/10 recommend.

    This place is cute. A nice little day trip 30 min from our place in Charlotte. Flights of 5 for ($5) or the whole tasting menu for ($10). You can also pretty much sample anything else you want to try if you just ask. The slushes were my favorite. I tried the blueberry and the apple cider. So delicious. Even ended up buying a mixed to take home. They sell snacks and charcuterie but I didn't have any. Good drinks, nice views. I went on a Thursday afternoon so there wasn't an music or food trucks but it was still a nice time.

    I'm trying to go the all of the wineries in the area and Rocky River Vineyards was up next. It is kind of by itself without other wineries close by but it is still 100% worth the trip. The property is really nice. You can walk among the vines, see the barn, drink inside at the small tasting bar, or drink outside at one of the multiple seating areas outside. The service was fantastic and the wines were all very good. They have wine slushies which are wonderful on a hot day.

    I immediately fell in love with this vineyard upon driving in. Settled in the woods of tiny Midland, they are located in a cute little house with a screened in front porch. Behind there is a pavilion and rocking chairs along with the vineyard where you can roam around. The front yard also has a patio with heaters and seating. Inside they served wine slushie a, wine, beer and hot mulled cider. There were all kinds of local crafts for sale and wine too. This place was so cute and comfortable, the people working were super sweet and helpful. Wonderful place and will most definitely be back for another wine slushy!

    The wines here are great and so is their staff! Went here for a wine tasting and was greeted as soon as I walked through the door. They went through each wine and provided background about each one. They also have a nice gift shop area.

    Nice place located in a surrounding county of charlotte. There is a good amount of parking and a quite a large vineyard. Great place to go to for a day trip.I came to wine tasting only. Apparently they host events like weddings, etc there. They have a wide range of wines from dry, semi sweet to sweet, and slushes. The slushees were great for a hot summer day. I like that they offer a variety and some of the wines were quite tasty. They have a Groupon for their establishment if your looking for a deal. The only concerns were that the wine tasting section is tiny and there is a strong stomach turning stench in the front of the home near the entrance where you come in at for the gift shop. I'm Not sure if it's the plumbing or what., but Other then that it's a nice place. Happy drinking.

    What a cute spot to sip some wine and enjoy outside! For the fall they featured their apple pie wine slushee with whip cream, cinnamon, and caramel on top. Let me tell you, it was good!!!! We also enjoyed wine tasting and purchased a few bottles. It's a nice outing for date night, girl time, and more. {Side note: the house looking thing lol with the two rocking chairs is the best spot}

    Two words: wine slushies. There are 3 alcoholic flavors and you can mix them! 3 different sizes offered too. I liked the blueberry pomegranate and the margarita flavor (forget the name). Yum! There's a small tasting room in the White House, with a screened-in porch. The outdoors has a patio with a view of the vineyards and barn. Small gravel parking lot so on a nice Sunday it was full, but I made my own spot. Ha. Enjoyed the view and a nice drink.

    Nice visit to the the vineyards a sweet setup. You park in the back and they have a few tables as well as an entrance in both front and back. We chose to sit out front and enjoyed it. Cooler day but they have heaters on the patio and overlooks a little river/stream below. Also have a front porch thats screened in so you can feel right at home. Added bonus is you can see the golf course :) The staff was really.nice and friendly. Enjoyed the wines we tried and after a sampler decided to buy a bottle of the cab. The sleeper pick was the mulled wine. We got a small sample and tasted like Christmas! I have tried making this st home and think from now on will leave that for the pros haha! One of us even got a cup of it. Perfect for a cool day. Will certainly return- maybe after a round of golf.

    Love it!

    Very nice place to get out with a love one or friend's and have a wine tasting! They also have beer... I will be back in the spring to see grape Vines..

    Did a wine tour here and it was soo much fun! Very spacious and beautiful! I believe it was 10 wines we tasted which included 2 slushies. 1 tastes like apple pie and it was oh so good! The white gold Carlos muscadine was my favorite!! Do yourself a favor and make sure you visit!

    Peach  and the Strawberry-Mango slushies
    Markey C.

    So after searching for a vineyard that my wife and I could go to for lunch while our kids were in school I found this one. I was a little skeptical from other reviews I saw but I was proven wrong. We grabbed a pizza from a little Pizzeria down the street and they were very welcoming of bringing your own food/snacks. We had the place to ourselves aside from 2 other women with their kids playing on the lawn. The women behind the counter were very very helpful and guiding us to which flights to select. The Peach slushies!!! That's all I want to talk about...the peach slushies!!! We grabbed a bottle to take home but the serenity of the lawn/gardens when it's not crowded is unmatched. We were there around 1130am on a Weds and it was perfect. We drove from Matthews and will definitely go back. I highly recommend!!!

    I went here for a wedding recently and it was a beautiful venue. I'm new to the NC area though and…read morethis place was very far off the beaten path and down some crazy winding roads. However, ladies if you are looking for a story book type of wedding, this may be a great place for you. I parked and walked up the pathway towards where the ceremony was being held and it was just packed full of naturey goodness. The rolling hills of green, flowers and trees a plenty, etc. They even had a bridge going to the other parking lot over a flowing creek. The wedding was held in the gazebo on the front half of the property and as we are watching the bridal party and groom come up the bridal march starts... The bride doesn't come walking down the aisle though... Oh no, just like in many of our fantasy weddings that we've all pictured in our heads, the beautiful bride is being brought to her fairy tale on a horse drawn carriage. Her veil is flowing behind her in the wind, and she is sitting with her father, who will soon be giving her away. He has his arm wrapped around her, and you can only imagine what they are talking about. The horses hooves clop against the ground in an elegant fashion and after they go around the place, father and bride are dropped off to do the official walk down the aisle. Beautiful. I'm getting teary eyed just rethinking about it and telling all of you! The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was held under tents on the rear part of the property. Very nice place and the staff were all extremely professional. They even give you the option to bring your own alcohol for your wedding instead of purchasing it through the company with an additional cost added on. (Maybe that's standard.. I'm not sure, but it seemed very helpful! I'd recommend this place to any love birds out there!

I was impressed with how organized they were. My favorite part, besides the house and grounds, was the HUGE selection of decorations you can choose from that they include in the price of a wedding package. They had so many things to choose from, it boggled my mind. Candelabras, chandeliers, sculptures...you name it. Then after you've decided on decorations, you work with a member of the staff who helps you coordinate the look you want...which is really helpful if you're like me and have ZERO design sense. Everything was just like I dreamed it would be for the wedding. Several guests commented on how great the staff were, and how beautiful everything was. They even provide a horse and carriage for the bride and groom immediately following the ceremony. My only complaint was the DJ. You have to use the one they partner with. You can only conduct business with them over the phone and through e-mail. Still, I didn't worry because the person I communicated with seemed very thorough. She told me I had two options: I could either list every track I wanted played, or I could list only the special songs (like first dance, father/daughter dance, etc.) and the DJ would select the rest for the reception. I wanted to be sure that the people who came to the wedding would know all the music, so I worked for several hours on a music list. I was assured that only the music on the list would be played. But during the reception, NONE of the music other than the special selections were right. I didn't recognize half of what was played. Only four or five people got up to dance all evening. That was really disappointing. If the DJ wasn't going to use the list I created, I wished I had been told that before I spent several hours putting it together. Other people might not have an issue though, if they don't mind leaving the music entirely up to the DJ. Overall I loved this place and the staff at Saratoga Springs. The only drawback is the requirement that you use their DJ and their caterer (the caterer was EXCELLENT, though) so if you want to choose who provides those services on your own, you're a little bit stuck...but the pros definitely outweigh the cons!!

But hear me out!! It's definitely worth it. Buckle up, this might be long. We visited on a Saturday morning for the Fall Festival & Candy Dump. We arrived around opening (10am). The parking lot is very large and convenient to the entrance. The check-in staff members were so welcoming and friendly. Check-in was quick and easy. The pumpkins were set up at the entrance. There are also a few cute places to take pictures near the entrance. From there, the sky is the limit. We started at the tricycle racetrack then moved to the playground, which has plenty of benches for adults to watch their little ones. Then we moved to the Sand Hill. My kiddos loved all the dump trucks and the sit-on diggers. My husband and I had a quick game of basketball before moving to one of the blow-up slides. While waiting for the wagon ride , we visited the animal pens. My boys loved petting the cow, horse and sheep and seeing the turkey and chickens. For a small cost, you can purchase feed for the animals. Thankfully, they have a hand washing station onsite. The wagon ride is included in the ticket price and was a nice length; not too long & not too short. We had just enough time to visit the corn barn and grab a snack from their concession house. In my opinion, everything was decently priced. Service was quick and the food/drinks were hot. The candy dump was better than we could have imagined. They were kind enough to provide bags for the kiddos. The farm's owner offered a few warm words of appreciation then they loaded up the diggers. Although there were a lot of kids there, they spread the candy out so it didn't feel overwhelming. My toddlers had a blast and the older kids were so kind and patient with them. We left after the candy dump (my kids were exhausted ). There was so much we still didn't get to. They have a corn maze, an excavator slide, more bounce houses, a train and more. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful. And did I mention, my kids were TIRED!! We'll definitely be back.

Attached shows lack of communication days before the wedding Attached is also my day of coordinators email. EMAIL I sent him below: I wanted to reach out regarding several issues we experienced with your services at our wedding on 10/11. Unfortunately, the performance did not meet expectations or the agreed-upon standards, and I wanted to share the specific concerns for your awareness and resolution. Throughout the evening, the DJ repeatedly approached me -- the bride -- with questions and complaints, interrupting my time with family and guests. My coordinator was present and attempting to handle all communication, yet he continued to come to me directly instead of working through her as planned. When we were introduced as husband and wife, the DJ immediately began playing our first dance song without any pause or announcement, leaving no time for guests to be seated or for us to prepare. We had to begin dancing awkwardly right upon entry. During our dance, despite clear instructions in the app to "fade when necessary." I had to personally signal him to fade the song -- during my own first dance. The same issue occurred during the father-daughter AND mother-son dances. He announced the wrong sequence (calling for a "couple's dance" instead of the father-daughter dance) and again required direction from me to fade out the songs at appropriate times. ME THE BRIDE. Additionally, there were significant issues during cocktail hour. The DJ failed to make any announcements or guide guests, resulting in confusion as people began visiting the food truck while we were still taking photos. He also did not play background music consistently, and one of my bridesmaids had to ask him to start playing music while guests were eating. Overall, there was a complete lack of MC presence, coordination, and leadership throughout the evening. It felt as though he had never worked a wedding before, which unfortunately disrupted the flow of our event and created unnecessary stress. I'm bringing these concerns to your attention in hopes of finding a fair resolution. Please let me know how you'd like to proceed.
