I predict this will become the new trendy wedding venue for people looking for an off the beaten path locale. The Lodge is located on Liberty Lake. The main home is set up on a hill, but there is a grassy meadow that you can get quite a few white tents on! It is surrounded by woods and it feels like summer camp meets quaint old estate. It seemed like it was available to rent out the big main home or smaller cabins for retreats as well.

We all want our children to have a lifetime memory, yet not have to take out a second mortgage out to make it happen. The rates were more than fair, and you get some very important amenities needed for a lovely event. My niece had her wedding here, and it was just as perfect as she hoped it would be. Bar area, a sequestered room for bride and bridesmaids, plenty of bathroom facilities, stage, lights, great sound system, ADA friendly, and even some leisure games in a back corner to occupy the young ones who always get bored with adult functions.You also get the owner. He's a good young dude, is all over the place taking care of things, and is genuinely proud of what he is bringing to the community. And, any little hiccup that might occur is quickly taken care of because....he's there. Our whole family was very impressed with him. Here is an option that I can heartily recommend for working families. Consider the MEC when you are planning your event and being budget conscious...

We stayed in the…read moreRose Room and since there happened to be no other guests that night, they respectfully gave us a run of the mansion. Such a beautiful, tastefully decorated late 1800s Victorian home. Lovely and so nicely decorated for the holidays. The price for what you get is very decent. Very accommodating and friendly staff. They did a nice job preserving the EJ Robert's family history. The billard room has a neat glassed case mini museum of the Robert's history. Romantic yet fun. Great get-away place! We also went to Browne's Tavern right next to the mansion, same owner. We've been here many times and Browne's Tavern has good food depending on what you order. For example, their omelets and salmon with dill... really good, but the hummus plate and flat iron steak...just okay. Overall, nice menu. Lots to chose from. They have friendly servers and a very neat atmosphere along with decent prices. If you show your room key from the mansion, they will take an additional 10% off your food/alcohol bill. Cheers to both places!

This beautifully restored Victorian Mansion was our best B&B experience yet. The room are tastefully decorated in Victorian antiques. Everything from the claw-footed tub in the bathroom to the ornate chandelier in the dining room made us feel like we had stepped back in time. We would love to come back for one of their Victorian high teas. Every course of the full service breakfast was delicious, especially the dutch babies. The staff was great. Heather, the daughter of the owner, is an excellent cook. She made us feel comfortable and welcome. Looking forward to staying here again.

Unfortunately, as the parents who paid for the wedding, we were left feeling disappointed with how the day was managed and how little our family's wishes seemed to matter. Throughout the planning process, whenever we shared ideas or suggestions, they were often dismissed. The wedding planner frequently reminded us of her "35 years of experience," which made us feel that our opinions and vision for the wedding were not valued. We expected professional guidance, but we also expected a collaborative approach that respected what the bride, groom, and family wanted for such an important occasion. On the wedding day, everything felt rushed. A large amount of time was dedicated to the bride and groom eating, yet when we looked over, they were often simply sitting and watching everyone else. They could have been mingling with guests and enjoying time with family and friends, but the coordinator even told them she would let them know when they could get up. It felt unnecessarily restrictive during a celebration that should have been centered around them. There were also changes to the reception that differed from what we had been told to expect. We were informed that speeches would be limited to the parents of the bride and groom, the best man, and the maid of honor. Instead, all of the groomsmen were allowed to speak, taking additional time from other events. The father-daughter dance was faded out early and quickly transitioned into the mother-daughter dance, which was also cut short. The dancing portion of the reception lasted only about an hour before the evening was winding down. After all the time, effort, and money invested in planning this wedding, it was disappointing to see so many meaningful moments rushed through. While the venue itself is beautiful, we left feeling that the day was managed according to the coordinator's preferences rather than the wishes of the couple and family. This was especially concerning given that the coordinator is also the venue owner and the photographer is her daughter. After making a significant financial investment and spending months preparing for this special occasion, the overall experience fell far short of what we were promised and hoped for. Many important moments felt rushed, decisions were made without consulting us, and we were left feeling that our concerns and vision for the wedding were secondary. Even now, we are still waiting for the photos that were promised within eight weeks.

I attended Mont Lamm for one of their hosted Farm to Table events. I have never ever been to an…read moreevent like this before and I must say it was incredible for my first time. The theme for this Farm to Table Event was surf and turk, and there was a seed swap. HOW COOL IS A SEED SWAP! I brought wildflower seeds from the gorge and was pretty darn proud of myself. Let's talk first about the venue. Mont Lamm is an absolutely gorgeous property in the outskirts with amazing farm land and incredible views of the countryside. I dressed up, brought my bottle of wine and a bunch of lilies and truly experience a night out on a Sunday. The grounds are perfectly landscaped and glorious and there is a wood gazebo with intricate details. Then you go inside the barn....and the entire place is lit up with lights. My face was shocked wide eyed and mesmerized by the amount of lighting in this place. Absolutely stunning! Everyone sat in farm style seating and I had met some great people in the seats next to me. We started our evening with a Bees Knees cocktail that I slurped down and was so tasty I wanted another immediately. Shannon then introduced Chef LJ and the story behind farm to table and why they put on the events. Using local farms (and seafood from the nearest freshest place I'm sure) and come up with intricate dishes that compliment each other, for - Four. Solid. Courses. Courses ranged from Salmon on a Rosemary Shortbread, to Sous Vide Steak, Oysters, a delicious Crab dish, and the best tasting dessert with chocolate, cream, and amazingness all in one little dish. Each course paired with an alcoholic beverage and that was fancy as all hell there. What I also enjoyed was the program. Each course was introduced by the chef and in between there was live music by an amazing musician, vendors that spoke about their distillery and herbs, stories about farming, and then the hosts sang and it brought me to tears. UGH. I am so in love with our community and it's vibrancy and am so proud to have been a part of such an amazing event. The next one is in June and I cannot wait.

It has become a repeated problem that seriously affects the surrounding neighbors. What is even more concerning is that, to our knowledge, the building still does not have a proper occupancy approval, despite concerns being brought to the county multiple times. Nothing meaningful seems to have been done to address the situation. As far as we can tell, there are also no wheelchair-accessible restrooms available for guests, only portable toilets outside. We understand people want a place to celebrate events, but there also needs to be responsibility, respect for neighbors, and compliance with basic safety and accessibility standards. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience.

Here is my experience: I purchased 2 VIP tickets for both Friday & Saturday events. This was to be a gift. A few days before I needed to give this gift, they cancelled the event. (But they did not really cancel. They changed the name "From the Ashes" to "Discovery Fire." I spoke with both people in charge of handling the event (the person who set everything up (From the Ashes) and the Settlers Inn person (Discovery Fire) who is now handling it. I was told that those who only bought the one day are fine but those who bought both days now had to buy again. They would NOT sell me tickets over the phone. They said I would need to go to the website again to purchase tickets. The website charges fees. The refund will not include fees. Not a big deal except I shouldn't have to pay additional fees that I have already paid. Their answer: So sorry. We cannot do anything about it. I am very angry. I have a very short time to try to find another gift for my son. Buyer beware: This event may or may not take place. IF you purchase tickets, they still may cancel the event. Customer service is very lacking. BEWARE: From the Ashes Idaho 2023 is now Discovery Fire, a live fire cooking event by Settlers Creek Events.
