There was ample parking in the back and enough tables and chairs for guests to sit and feel comfortable. They had a fridge to store food, speakers, and a smart TV where you could cast videos or music. They have clear clean up institutions to follow, and overall it was a good value. I definitely would recommend!

Draped in twinkle lights, the barn is romantic and cozy but spacious enough to accommodate loads of guests (up to 300ish?) They have a bar area, catering area, outdoor patio, and have restrooms under construction. The staff is fabulous - very professional and helpful. I've been to many events at Black Bird including weddings, parties, and workshops, and I couldn't recommend them more!

You can ride a horse, a bike or your legs. You can hear symphonic melodies made by 100s of frogs and see tons of wild life, did I mention there are sand dunes? "The Oak Openings Region is a globally rare ecosystem composed of over 130 square miles in Northwest Ohio. The land consists largely of oak savanna and grassland prairie.

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. It would also be a great spit for a wedding! I can't recommend it enough!

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.

Things to do along I-75 N/S to and from the Detroit area (2 of 2)…read more I had to slow down the clock and spend a little time here. The real destination was Detroit. That said, I had coffee at one place, ate a meat loaf lunch at another, pawed the car windows and did some test sitting at a few dealerships, drove around the University of Toledo campus (which I didn't know is a very good school for STEM disciplines), and put the cherry on top of these few hours by visiting the Toledo Botanical Garden. I walked the garden and took photos. It was warm and humid, so I didn't really relax and sit a spell. Like many public gardens, the Toledo Botanical Garden, out toward the western end of the city, mixes up formal garden spaces with European cues and more organic spaces, meaning they are natural in affect and display very little rigid planning. I was fairly amazed how, as you moved along, these different vistas came into view. Everything was cohesively put together and you could enjoy the different environments they've curated for you. The Toledo Botanical Garden is part of the city metro park system, which I learned from other reviews. Thus, being under this umbrella might mean that the park is free of charge ... and it is! For this aspect and for delivering more than I had expected, having pulled it from a "top things to do" list, I believe the Toledo Botanical Garden handily earns 5 stars.
