    Outside of the gorgeous venue, natural landscape and accommodations that make Fiddle Lake Farm so great, are the people that make it all happen. Pam, Craig, Lisa (L.C. Solutions), and the rest of the crew were helpful, thoughtful, detail-oriented, and prepared every step of the way. We spent the week of our wedding at the venue and stayed in their historic Bed and Breakfast. Their services were top notch, they were attentive and helpful with wedding setup and tear down, and also great to hang out with. We truly had an amazing time getting to know Pam, Craig and Lisa and are grateful to be part of the Fiddle Lake Family. Their hard work and passion for making your wedding day vision come to life will shine through on your path to the alter. We are so grateful to have met our new Fiddle Lake Family and for the amazing wedding we had. We give the highest recommendation for the venue and the people that make it so great. Thank you Fiddle Lake Farm!

    Fiddle Lake Farm is quite the magical property! After touring the grounds we knew it was the venue for us because it featured beautiful scenery, clean & quaint quarters for us and guests, and lakefront property for wedding party options. We felt at ease the moment we met with Pam & Craig, in fact, we continued talking for hours after deciding to go with Fiddle for our rock & roll carnival themed wedding. And, would you believe, the barn featured a built-in vintage soda jerk stand! Everything about Fiddle suited our dream wedding plans and I can state, without any reservation that Pam & Craig were the perfect venue owners that did everything they could to make our dreams come true. Thank you Fiddle Lake Farm! Photographers-The Markows

    We will be FOREVER grateful to Pam & Craig and the Fiddle Lake Farm family! They made every single one of our wedding day dreams possible. We are from Long Island and wanted that true barn wedding experience. We found Fiddle Lake, went for a visit, and never looked back. They were a pleasure to work with from start to finish and we truly felt like part of the Fiddle Lake Farm family (and still do!) Pam and Craig were always so welcoming through email and during our multiple visits to the barn that always came with something fun, such as tasting homemade honey, a ride on a snowmobile or gator, or Craig's wonderful stories about the Adirondacks. They truly love what they do and making you feel right at home. They had so many wonderful recommendations for vendors and every single one ended up being FABULOUS! The barn and the grounds are GORGEOUS, with so many different backgrounds and environments to take photos, from inside the barn, the the ferns, or out in the field, or up on the hill overlooking Elk Mountain, the beautiful views and locations are endless! You also have the option of setting up the barn and decor in any way you wish! It was so nice to get a chance to be creative! The legacy barn, where past couples have left their mark, whether it was by leaving frames, candles, mason jars, chalkboard signs, there were so many things to choose from and use and saved us so much money on trips to Michaels! Fiddle Lake even enabled us to have root beer and creamiscle floats served by Pam and Craig's son and a fireworks show in the field, smores and sparklers by the bon fire, and a Floating Lantern send off! Our guests were absolutely IN LOVE with Fiddle Lake, so much so that they even said "How is anyone else supposed to get married following this wedding?" and one of our friends that attended our wedding is now getting married there themselves next fall! It was an absolute hit and our friends and family are STILL talking about it! I could go on and on about how wonder

    Words cannot express how magical Fiddle Lake Farm is, and how SPECTACULAR our wedding turned out under the guidance and support of Pam and Craig!

    As my fiancé and I were searching for a venue, our standards were almost impossibly high. We wanted a forest ceremony, a barn reception, a nearby lake, and enough lodging for our immediate family and bridal party to enjoy the entire weekend on site. Trothing through countless websites, I thought our standards were way too high and there was no way such a place existed. Eventually we found FLF and it fit every criteria we had, and actually turned out a million times better!

    The beautiful vintage barn decor, the car and boat rides, the root beer float bar, their gorgeous home, the field, the forest, the lake, the magical lighting, everything came together to create the perfect vibe for a spectacular wedding! We definitely recommend it wholeheartedly, and look forward to visiting Fiddle Lake Farm as a married couple!

    Where do I even begin with this venue!? Fiddle Lake Farm is truly magical and I cannot think of a better place for my wedding ceremony and reception (6/18/16). The owners, Pam and Craig, are SO nice and easy to work it. We got to know them a little while planning our wedding and they are fantastic, kind people! This wedding venue has it all. It's a farm, with a barn, on a lake, in the mountains, with forests and ferns <3 The grounds are huge, yet intimate, and there are many options for where to hold the ceremony. We held ours in the hayfield full of purple and yellow flowers over looking Elk Mountain. It was incredible. Guests rode a tractor/hayride to get up there. It was so cute! If that's not your thing, there is also a vintage car available. The barn, where we held our reception, has a fun, rustic vibe, and tons of antique furniture so you really don't need to do much decorating of your own. You can rent gorgeous wooden farm tables from FLF at a reasonable price, and they provide mixed antique chairs free of charge! They also have a storage barn filled with more antiques, props and signage left behind by other brides. We used mixed china from the barn rather than renting it, which really saved us. Pam and Craig run a B&B, which is where I stayed with my bridesmaids the night before, and they also have a lake house where the groomsmen stayed. They own a cabin on the same lake and know others who own homes around the lake too. This meant that our closest friends could stay at the venue with us, arrive a few days early, and relax around the lake. My husband and I were also able to arrive earlier in the week and stay in the bridal suite as we casually got ready for the weekend. You have the option to have your rehearsal dinner at the lake, which we did. It was laid back and cozy, everything we were going for. You provide your own vendors, but Pam and Craig are flexible and this allows you to customize the entire day. Call for a tour now before your date is gone!

    This is the best kept secret in northeast PA! Finding a spot to take pictures was easy (everywhere). My husband and I are beyond grateful to have our reception there. Pam is so accommodating and she has suggestions for other vendors to making planning easier. I would have been lost without her. The most difficult part of this venue is keeping all the pintrest ideas at bay. ;) They have another barn full of decorations you can rent. As far as price goes, they are in line with similar venues but not many others have bathrooms or Pam. If you go look at it, you will fall in love.

    Fiddle Lake Farm was the absolute most perfect spot for our wedding. Pam is accommodating and easy to work with. She responds to emails quickly and truly tries to make your wedding the best it can be. The Farm House and Lake House are great places for guests to stay. The Farm House is a great spot for the girls to get ready the morning of and breakfast was great! The Lake House was used for our rehearsal dinner and who doesn't love being able to access the lake? Fiddle Lake Farm has a great team of individuals who truly work with you all day to make your wedding fabulous! Couldn't thank them enough!!

    Fiddle Lake Farm is hands down amazing! Pam and Craig are so easy to work with. They made sure our weekend stay in the farm and lake house was comfortable. Do not worry about buying decorations, the barn at Fiddle Lake Farm is vintage unique and beautiful! I love the canoes in the ceiling, the soda float stand, and the handmade wooden tables are the perfect touch. I wish I could re-live my wedding at Fiddle Lake Farm. Once you're there, you fall in love and understand the feeling I am talking about. I highly recommend Fiddle Lake Farm! Thank you to everyone at Fiddle Lake who helped make my wedding everything I've dreamed of.

    Fiddle Lake Farm's reply:

    Amelia, We loved getting to know you, Holden and your families. We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness. Thank you for choosing to share your special day with us at Fiddle Lake Farm!! :)

    When Shawn & I began our search for a wedding venue, we knew we weren't the type to host our event at a hotel or banquet hall type setting. We're lovers of the outdoors, nature, & a more alternative place. As we started searching the NEPA area, we found Fiddle Lake Farm, & decided to schedule a visit. We met Pam Benson when we arrived with a welcome & a smile, & as she began to walk us through the property, creating a wedding vision for us, we realized there is something so magical, & special there. Located on their many acres overlooking Elk Mountain in the Endless Mountains region, we just knew it was the perfect place for us, in every way. This rustic venue offered views of the woods, mountains, hay field, apple orchard, & a beautiful barn space for the reception. After we booked with Pam, & lucky for us, we booked just in time, right before word spread and FLF was booked solid! Soon enough we met Craig Benson as well, who is a total delight! Craig always has the right thing to say, just as the right time - exuding positivity that is contagious. I am a Hotel Conference Planner professionally, so in the months to come, I had many, questions for Pam, to each & every very detail. Organization is in my nature, and with all my questions, Pam was always patient thorough, & helpful as I gathered all my details. She offered ideas & suggestions as well, which were a great help since we live 3 hours away and couldn't visit very often. Once the week of our wedding arrived, I began making my daily trips and carloads of things over to FLF to begin setting up. This is when I had the pleasure of meeting Brain & Zac, the brothers team that works so hard for Pam & Craig, assisting with all of their barn set-up, grounds keeping, & bride set-up questions. :) They were a joy to work with as well. I cannot say enough good things about Pam & Craig, & Fiddle Lake Farm as a venue for any special event. You will never regret your decision to work with them!

    I absolutely love Fiddle Lake Farm, and loved having my wedding there. The pros: Pam & Craig (the owners) are the easiest to work with (we visited about 15 farms within 3 hours from NYC), and went above and beyond to make our wedding amazing. From responding to all of our emails, recommending vendors, giving helpful suggestions, to being so helpful while we were there during the week to decorate, to offering to pick up pizza for the welcome dinner when food ran out, to being SO helpful during the wedding - I can't thank them enough.

    The venue? GORGEOUS. We chose to have our rehearsal/welcome dinner at the lakehouse (where you can have your ceremony too), and it was perfect. Guests are free to use the boats, and to relax by the lake. We chose to have our ceremony in the field with the mountain in the background and it was breathtaking - from the cute wagon that brings the guests and wedding party to the ceremony site, to all of the cute decor that is already in the barn, this place was the perfect place to have a beautiful, rustic, but so magazine worthy wedding. I have more words than allowed on this review to express how beautiful and how perfect this place is for your wedding. The amenities are perfect for helping you relax days before your wedding, and the place lends itself to a laid-back wedding where you can actually enjoy your wedding and your guests. I just can't say enough - have your wedding there. You will not regret it.

    Peaceful, serene, quaint, unique, picturesque. Just a few words to describe FLF.
    One thing we wanted from our wedding venue was not to host it at just any ordinary place. Also, being one of the last of our friends to tie the knot, not where our friends had theirs, no offense! We wanted our venue to fit our rugged style and laid back personalities. FLF was exactly what we were looking for.
    As the second wedding ever at FLF we had the advantage of taking the creative ideas of the last couple to the next level, or taking it down a notch to fit our preference. We had the chance to create our own, customized dream wedding since there are so many options for the setting. The best thing about it is you can make it as rustic down home or crystal classy as you desire. At Fiddle Lake Farms, it all comes down to the personal touch and vision of what each couple wants from their special day. I can only imagine the venue getting better and better each wedding weekend.
    Preparation for our Big Day began earlier in the week to truly put our personal touch on the barn. Our theme was with a homemade touch with rustic handcrafted farm tables, up-cycled wine bottles as centerpieces for flowers and candles, a hand-painted sign-in board, custom hand blown toasting glasses, a DIY hay bale lounge, an old fashioned photo booth, etc. The hours of work paid off as each guest was speechless as they entered the ruggedly beautiful and spacious barn. The framed, crisp white tent was also a perfect fit and extension of the barn. From each of our 170 guests, there were countless words of awe and questions of “How did you find a place like this?” The whole day blazed on by but with an air of carefree minds. It was without a doubt the best experience we could have had for our wedding. A definite recommendation to anyone who wants their wedding to be a wonderfully unique and memorable experience. If I had to sum it all up and give it a title it would simply be Rustic Countryside Charm.
