private parties & events

join us to host a memorable event, big or small.

weddings of all sizes, birthdays, retreats, graduation parties, reunions, anniversaries, and company/corporate events are all welcome here. whether you are looking to host a quiet, restorative gathering or get all your people together for a lively milestone birthday bash (with of course a disco-ball-barn-dance-party)- we’d love to help bring your vision to life!

in the summer the gardens are abundant and the swimming hole at the creek is oh so refreshing. in autumn the property teems with apple trees and sugar maples. as the days get colder you will always find a fire burning whether it be in the kitchen’s wood fired oven, the fireplace in the parlor or one of the several outdoor fire pits.
