This venue was amazing! We were at a destination wedding yesterday and were very impressed. The…read moreowner was very friendly and accommodating. The space was beautiful. It stormed terribly the entire day before and a little wet grass was the side effect. I would absolutely rent this space for a family reunion or wedding. There's a cute town nearby for anything you could need and it's very peaceful. Excellent spot for a yoga retreat! I highly recommend checking out Black Barn Harvest Moon for your next event!

TLDR: -The motel was great!!…read more-VERY affordable compared to the other places in the area!! (Most other hotels/motels were twice the price of this one for a single night.) -Would definitely stay here again if i stop in the area!! -Sure, the decor is a bit "dated". But Motels exist for functional & affordable overnight stays. (if you're looking for something grand and pretty go book a hotel room for 2-3x the price lol) More detail: Me and two friends stayed here 7/19/2026, during a week with wildfires, thunderstorms, & tornado warnings that had most of the other motels+hotels fully booked up. This place was definitely the cheapest option in the area, so we weren't expecting much since you usually wind up getting what you pay for. Plus, we were a bit hesitant to book a room in the first place because some of the recent reviews on here were a bit negative... ****BUT-!! I'm happy to say that this place was cheap, AND perfect for the night !! It was tidy, the beds were comfy + clean, & there was no "bad smells" in the room we wound up booking. So about the motel/service: -Their 24 hour service is no joke, We called ahead around midnight and our call was answered right away! (Unlike most of the other places in the area...) -After arriving around 1AM-ish, we called again and were greeted shortly after. The price was confirmed to be the same as they had said on our earlier call, ~140$ for the night for a party of three adults. -We were looking for one room with two beds, and he gave us two choices (He even led us to open & check out an available room we were interested in before booking). -Very friendly owner/worker (not sure which he was lol). He was flexible/generous with the checkout time as well. After booking around 1AM, we asked when we'd need to check out and he said, "Ehhh... Before 3pm should be alright? That way you guys can sleep in, you'll need it haha." About the room we booked: -I believe we wound up staying in room 7 on the front side of the motel. -The room was a decent size, with: Free wifi, 1 king & 1 twin bed, a TV, an in-wall AC unit, a small minifridge & microwave, coffee maker, two lamps (1 bedside table lamp + 1 full lamp), a desk space area with 2 chairs opposite to the beds, & a sink + mirror in the back of the room just outside the bathroom door. ^[All of these are somewhat visible in the attached picture] About the bathroom inside our room: -The bathroom was a bit tight inside, but i didnt mind it. The sink was outside, a sacrifice made to make space inside for the toilet + a full bathtub with a shower head. -The shower had great water pressure, an adjustable+detachable shower head, and hot water that STAYED hot for an admittedly drawn out ~1.5hr shower. (That shower & clean water was HEAVENLY after staying for a week in a distant mountain cabin with no AC and foul sulfur-smelling water lol.)

The review AFTER the initial review!!…read more So I wrote a review and deleted it when the owner of the campground came to our campsite and kicked myself, my husband and my children off the site after writing the review! ! Apparently, you can be a business owner, have a PUBLIC website and give guests the option to review their stays BUT if it's not to their liking, they are allowed to use your power and authority, to do what they want. In this case, it was in the middle of me cooking my family dinner. He didn't even have the common courtesy to let us have dinner before telling us to pack it up. This all stemmed from my 13 year old son and his friend riding bikes too fast, throwing rocks at each others FEET, walking around with a flashlight and ALLEGEDLY jumping over the counter in the ice cream shop. First of all, they were riding BICYCLES!!! Peddle bikes, NOT ELECTRIC! So how fast can you actually go on a BIKE!! The rock "throwing".... They were waiting patiently OUTSIDE the gate to the pool for my husband to finish his conversation with the owner, who told him we were NOT ALLOWED to bring the boys back to his campground together again!!! Why would you tell someone that!!! They are BOYS... ages 12 and 13! They were NOT throwing rocks at people, there was no one in the vicinity of them... they threw a couple SMALL pebbles at each others feet!! As far as the flashlight episode goes, they were WALKING around the campground, in the dark, at night, with a flashlight that may have ACCIDENTALLY shined in a campsite or two while WALKING!!! They were not PURPOSELY doing it! Lastly, the jumping on the counter in the ice cream shop!!! GIVE ME A BREAK!!! You can CLEARLY and very EASILY walk around the counter if you want to! Jesus, the friend that came with my son had to be helped climbing in the back of my husbands truck!! There is NO WAY that him or my son climbed on a glass counter!! This campground is definitely geared more toward the elderly and the retired! Most sites there are permanent so the "weekenders" or the "vacationers" get the short end of the stick. They do not get the same treatment or respect as the "regulars" especially if they have kids! Boys are boys!!! I understand they need to be respectful and responsible, however, it's a campground, they are on peddle bikes, messing around with each other, minding their own business and hurting not ANYONE! My opinion would be do not go here if you have children, especially preteen to teenager boys. There is not much geared towards kids at this place. Almost all campgrounds have pools, ice cream and a playground. There are other options. If you have children, maybe pick a better place that is more for your children. Unfortunately, camping at a place that doesn't put children first, will no longer be my first choice. I also want to add that my husband and I don't smoke marijuana but it was definitely present at the campground... so my boys can't be "boys" but I have to smell that crap everyday I'm camping, because it's "legal" For years, I would have proudly and happily given Belden Hill a 10 star review but after this weekend and feeling like this place had it out for my boys from the second we showed up, it's a one because I can't give a zero. One of the BEST(and the worse) parts of this whole experience was, as he (the owner) was talking to my husband, he said REPEATEDLY, "boys will be boys" Pick a side Brian!!! Either the elderly or the vacationeers! I bet you didn't tell the people that complained about us "boys will be boys" I can only hope they see this review and realize you are playing both sides!! But then again, since you favor the elderly and the retired, they probably don't have much to do with google reviews! The whole experience is sickening!

Attended a beautiful wedding at the Binghamton Club several months back. The venue has a pretty…read morelarge parking lot so we had no problem grabbing a spot which was great. Once we entered, we saw the beautiful interior and were ushered into the cocktail room. Since it was a Muslim wedding, there was no alcohol which they accommodated very nicely. I helped myself to a lovely Shirley temple which was just as good as I remember from when I was a kid. During the cocktail hour, the staff walked around with little snacks and hors d'oeuvres. When we asked questions, they were very polite and even made some jokes with us when we initiated. When it was time for the main event, we were directed to our seats. The main room is beautiful with high ceilings, a nice dance floor in the middle, and some chandeliers. We were offered a few menu items which we Pre-selected before we arrived and then we confirmed again with our waiter. When it was time for the dinner, they somehow were 1 plate short which they said they'd fix by cooking another one for us. I volunteered to be the one to wait for the new meal. It wasn't a major problem, but it was a little strange to me there were no backup dishes ready to go in case of something like this. When the food finally came out it was pretty good, just a lot longer wait than I thought. The servers were very apologetic about it, but it really wasn't a major problem for me as I had eaten so many hors d'oeuvres. Overall, a beautiful place for a big event!
