The bathrooms and dressing rooms are so cute. The setup is perfect. The grounds are beautiful. Bar, catering area, dance floor, etc - all was perfect. The setup with guests upstairs and down, gave a perfect view to everyone, while able to keep distanced. The upstairs was a little warm but windows and fans circulated the air just fine. I cannot recommend this venue enough. It's in the middle of nowhere but you won't be disappointed.

It's spacious, clean, and the A/C in the hot months is a must! We were given a large kitchen space for food prep, and there's a nice bar space with ice machine, too. The owners are incredibly communicative, and they are in the building during the event. They stopped by a couple times to take care of the garbage and check in.
