    I had my wedding at The Cooper House. From the moment I toured the property I knew it was the one…read more My guests are still talking about how perfectly beautiful it was. Marnie is the best; she helped with every aspect of the planning all the way up to and through the wedding day. She helped in coordinating the ceremony and the reception. Being from out of state it was great having someone I could rely on to recommend places (hair salon, florist, cake, etc) within my budget. Marnie was great with answering any questions or concerns I had. She really knows her stuff. The food is delicious, trust me I've had it several times. I would definitely recommend The Cooper House for any celebration, even if it means traveling 7 hours to get there.

    I traveled down from NY to marry my fiancé. The original plan was have a simple marriage ceremony…read moreon the beach. As soon as we got down here, a last minute bomb cyclone struck and left us to abandon our plans. Luckily, The Cooper House was available and these guys salvaged our wedding. My bride and all our guests were stunned at how beautiful the property was. We were able to have the ceremony in the old general store. The lighting, chairs, and overall ambiance was perfect. They even left us water and champagne for a toast! We were allowed to take pictures on the grounds (and we did when we got a break from the rain) and the place is gorgeous. I cannot stress how pleased I am with how it turned out with only 24 hours of planning. I can't even imagine how much better it would be with more planning. I highly recommend this place and thank them from the bottom of my heart for helping a complete stranger out.

    Excellent-Everything My wife and I stayed over Wednesday…read morenight. A perfect day/night away. 1. A tasting of everything the distillery sells was the start of the early afternoon after arrival. Tina is the consummate ambassador of the brand, professional, knowledgeable and most importantly, personable. One of the best liquor tastings we've experienced. We did end up buying a variety of several liquor. The prices are right. 2. The Cottages- Rose Garden 123, for us, now sets the example of what a clean and perfectly designed lodging should be. 3. Dinner- Again, nothing less than satisfying at the Cork room Restaurant. Nice dinner menu selection, very well made cocktails alongside attentive and personable staff. We both had beef entrees, the beef was better tasting than beef we've had in a long time, just tasted clean Also, perfectly seasoned and cooked to the doneness as ordered. Overall, this is a well run business with excellent staff. Easy choice to come back again.

    I posted a review of this place a couple weeks ago when we just had drinks, so I'm gonna skip…read moredescribing the setting (it's really cool!). Last night I sat inside and ordered some grub! Toni, our server, was very nice and understanding when we told her the fish from the fish and chips order just wasn't very good. According to the eater, it was "too fishy tasting," and the texture was different than typical deep fried fish. My son-in-law had the steak tips, and he cleaned his plate, so I'm guessing they were good. I had the Po' Boy sandwich, the third one I've had in the last few weeks!! Mine was good, but instead of a hoagie-like bun, it came on hamburger buns, so not quite as big as I thought it'd be. Still pretty good, though! The sweet tater fries were excellent!
