I was blown away by this venue. I can't believe I have lived in the area my entire life and had…read morenever been here until an event this year. I attended a bridal shower here in June and it was one of the best if not the best bridal shower I have ever been to, and I have been to many. Everything about this venue was perfect. The parking lot is a bit of a walk to the building, that's the only negative thing I have to say. The place is absolutely beautiful. Wooden structures inside overlooking the boardwalk with large windows, I mean I can't say enough about how beautiful a setting it was. The food for the shower was fantastic. Omelette station, standard brunch fare, all delicious. Tomato, mozzarella and basil, cheese and meat boards, delicious vegetables and fruit, I was wow-ed. The staff was phenomenal, coffee was literally insane. I couldn't believe how good the coffee was so I went up to a worker and asked what they use. He came back and said, "Folgers." I kid you not. I was so embarrassed but also went to Stop and Shop after I left the shower and bought a big thing of Folgers coffee because it's SO DARN GOOD. It was somewhat of a windy day so we stayed inside most of the time except for photos where we went outside onto the boardwalk and had a beautiful view of the beach. I attribute so much of this fantastic shower to the people who put it together as they brought a donut wall and had a make your own flower bouquet station and so on and so forth but the venue itself and the staff and the clean huge bathrooms were a 10/10. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have an event.

From the moment we stepped foot in Mill Pond, our very first tour of the place, we just felt it…read moreright in our hearts this venue was the one for our special day. The venue is set in a quiet area in Medford, overlooking the golf course, with a gazebo on the grounds, which is a gorgeous view. It felt very intimate and humble, not intimidating and over the top like some venues are. We felt that it was a romantic and beautiful setting. Charlotte is an absolute pleasure to work with and she was one of the major reasons we chose Mill Pond. She is very passionate about her job and really listens to you and your concerns. She's friendly, very knowledgable of the field, dedicated to make your day as special and beautiful as possible, and is overall a wonderful soul. After we had our first tasting of the food, we were sold. The food at the tasting, as well as on our wedding day, was so divinely delicious, and well prepared and presented. Our sincerest compliments to the chefs that day as they really worked so hard to make the food as delicious as they did and it really shows because the guests just keep raving about it all - the cocktail hour, dinner, and dessert. Especially the mashed potato bar; that was a huge hit! All of the servers that day were so well mannered and professional. They were so willing to help us and our guests and made sure to ask us if we needed anything and followed through on our every need. Our bartenders were professional, helpful, and friendly, and of course all the guests were very pleased with the beverages served. I'm sorry if I'm forgetting anyone but every staff member working that day was awesome and so helpful. I have only the best experiences with everyone that day and have only good memories of everyone. We are so pleased of the whole process from the very beginning of our first tour, to the very minute we were walking out of the venue concluding the night of our wedding. We cannot wait to work with Mill Pond again for future parties as we had the most pleasant and awesome experience with them. Our guests had so many great things to say and so many said they will recommend Mill Pond to anyone in search of a venue. Thank you all so much for working so hard on our wedding day and for taking pride in your jobs! Our day was so special and beautiful because of you all and we are so grateful for that!

Rob and Lauren, along with the bartenders, wait staff, and the entire crew were professional and dedicated throughout the entire event! From planning to the day of everyone involved showed genuine care and concern for our party going exactly how we wanted. The food was served hot, delicious, and we received many compliments on it from our guests! We had an open bar for this event which everyone really enjoyed. We hired a Dj for this event and everyone had a great time out on the dance floor. Asking the staff to set up the tables how we wanted along with decor was no problem at all. The venue is just beautiful!! The main entrance is elegant and gives a WOW feeling to your guests as they arrive. The catering hall/party room has a fire place, bar area, tables set up with modern fancy chairs, and then leads to the indoor patio filled with windows for a beautiful view. It was nice having access to the bridal suite to get ready and store some items in during the party as well. They even had a wood photo back drop ready for us! We brought along some of our own decorations to make it unique to us, like a banner, florals, and seashells to fit our theme. You have so much room for creativity and personalization at this venue! For a party in warm weather the outside is just as pretty. There is a gazebo, perfect for photo opportunities. The grass is well kept and gives a stunning view for enjoying cocktail hour outside. This venue is perfect for a wedding, sweet 16, retirement party, christening, bar-mitzvah, or any event you can think of. Very affordable as well. I don't think you can beat this price with any other venue that is as wonderful as this one. Just give them a call and Rob will certainly help you plan your event so it meets all of your expectations!
