There was nothing we needed for, they had it all and did it all. Absolutely recommend The Barn at Fairview Acres for weddings.

I have ordered from here several times as it's only a few blocks away. The time before my most…read morerecent order was awful. I ordered a cod dinner ( which comes with choice of potato and a salad) and a pizza. My husband went to pick the order up and there was no salad or potato! In his defense, he didn't know that it was included. Baked cod was hard and tasted awful. Fast forward to last night's order (same order as the previous one but I got the cod battered). I walked into the dining area to pick up since getting a bartender to acknowledge me was fruitless. I told the waitress my name after waiting nearly 10 minutes and she rudely told me to go pick it up at the bar. I told her I ordered online and already paid so she told me to hang on. Another good 5 minutes goes by and a different waitress brings me a pizza and 1 Styrofoam container. I checked it and told her it was supposed to come with a salad. She rolled her eyes and finally ended up bringing it out. Well, the battered fish was doughy so I only ate the actual fish. They have certainly lost my business. So much for trying to support local businesses.

The tasting we had featured both reds and whites. Some I enjoyed, others weren't for me, but I was able to find great wines to take back for my husband and for my mother. The tasting was presented by one of the owners, and he had a vast knowledge of winemaking and also some great stories! I was not impressed by the labeling, but this seems to be very common among small local wineries. For me, the presentation of a wine bottle is important not only for gifting but when you are enjoying a bottle for yourself. The Vineyard also has a small gift shop with wine related items, some of which were rather unique. On the tour, I was surprised to see thick plastic containers for fermenting the wine rather than the traditional barrels. I learned more than I expected to about a process I know fairly well. Overall, this was a nice local vineyard with some good options. I can't say that I would necessarily drive there just to visit, but it's a nice stop on a ride through rural Iowa.

First and foremost: the price. Think of what a venue that allows a 2-night stay for 10 people and hosts up to 150 would cost. Then divide that number in half. And then do it again. And possibly again. I am talking LESS THAN $1000. Total. Now factor in what you will save by having the freedom to bring in all of your own food and booze. It's cray cray. The house itself is gorgeous. Turn of the century, antique fixtures, new appliances. The grounds are very pretty and well kept. The owner, Jerry is very possibly the nicest and most accommodating guy on the planet. If you book here, please be kind to him. He's the best. It is a bit far if you're coming from the city (about 1.45 mins) but it's a nice little getaway and totally worth the mild inconvenience. Trust me, guys. This is the place.
