Truly beautiful venue

This venue has a lot of history and stories behind it, we were so happy to be able to book Sherlock Springs. It is truly an amazing venue, they did an amazing job helping us out.
They help set up and they clean up as well. I highly recommend booking your wedding or event with them!

Great wedding!

Attended a beautiful wedding and reception here. The ceremony took place outside, overlooking the spring. There was a nice little camp fire set up with chairs around it for people to hang out during cocktail hour and reception, as well as cornhole boards. The deck was nice for cocktail hour as well, with rocking chairs and standing tables. A great place for a photo backdrop. The inside area was beautifully decorated and big enough for seating, dancing, and food. This location is all around beautiful and would recommend to any couples looking for a wedding venue!

Beautiful Venue

Beautiful Venue! Great value for what's included, minimal decoration needed. A bit confusing with what is stated in contract and then what is actually told and enforced the days prior to ceremony. Overall good experience.
