This venue has such great potential. The cons outweighed the pros so much that I would not recommend this to anyone. Pros: Beautiful main hall and entrance. Tables and chairs were already set out. No breakdown of tables or chairs No cleaning necessary Cons: Hot! There were 5 plug in ac units and a loud big plug in fan to cool the place down (that never cooled down) The owner was very sarcastic and rude when she spoke to anyone. Upon leaving the owner said if you have anything you can call or text me. We told her we didn’t have her number and her response was “ I like it that way”. Then gave us her card. Owner kept mentioning how she was watching us on the cameras. Owner kept pushing her way on the layout and floor plan. After we moved tables around, she would keep throwing indirects of how that’s not what (Her) floor plan said. The bathroom stalls were extremely small. If you had to sit down. Your knees would almost hit the door that was a piece of painted plywood with a handle. We had to set up in the dark. The owner said she would be by before the start of the event to turn on the lights. To only turn on half of the lights.

Terrible facility owner. She is so hard to deal with, very impossibly demanding, and has terrible anger problems. She has given me and my church an unnecessary, terrible time... She came and yelled and went off on my mother for something that was absolutely minuscule, and we couldn't believe it. My whole church was so surprised. I have never seen such unprofessionalism and anger from a facility owner like that before. We will not be back, and I strongly advise to be cautious if you are thinking about renting space here.. Especially for your special wedding day...

Pros: Gorgeous venue for the wedding, plenty of space, speedy bar service. Cons: There were no trash cans and no staff walking around to pick up garbage from appetizers, could not hear anything going on during the wedding, and staff was taking away food before people were even done eating.

Beautiful venue, great for vintage/rustic weddings and pictures...great history. Could use some improvement with the ac during bigger parties...got really warm during cocktail hour.
