Amazing Night!

This place was everything we were looking for. Low key vibes with an amazing setting. Was complemented on how unique the place was. I loved that if a guest was tired or not wanting to dance they had lots else to do, explore while light out, axe throwing corn hole, even a fire pit. (We forgot to light our fire we were having so much fun). Wendy and Robin were great with answering questions along the way and day of Wendy was amazing. We chose to hire a local BBQ company Haulin Ash for our dinner and it was great they knew right where to set up. With the venues off the beaten path location that was my biggest concern but it was the best choice the most amazing food. It was the best night 10/10 would recommend this place if you are looking for a rustic low key fun vibe but still have that wow factor.
