We were fortunate to learn about this separate small gatherings business that shares this magical space with guests.
I hosted a shower for thirty under a canopy of trees beside a lake and next to a waterfall. In that space we fit (4) 8' rectangular tables in a long row, a six foot table for food, and another 6' table with a bartender. It was perfect and totally surpassed any expectations we had.
There are several arbor entrances that lead you into the garden space, and benchs around the lake to enjoy the view. A highlight was the beautiful gazebo on the lake with chandeliers inside. This is where we set up a "bloom bar" for our guests to make their own floral arrangements. There is also ample room in a grassy area in the sunshine for other tables, this is where our gift table was.
The icing on the cake was the flock of ducks, hens, roosters, horses, etc. Our guests were enthralled with them and I'm sure they have never been photographed more! The whole property overlooks a natural space for ecosystem restoration. Just beauty everywhere you look.
The cottage was elegant, well-equipped, well... perfect. There was an entrance to the bathroom on the outside of the cottage near the garden for easy access. The second floor had a huge gorgeous bedroom with a balcony. A huge mirror and lots of space made me think it would be the perfect place for a bridal party to prep before the big event.
I highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a magical unique space.
