I visited Morais Vineyards for the first time yesterday to celebrate a dear friend's birthday, and…read moreI truly didn't know what to expect since I had never heard of it before. From the moment we arrived, I was completely blown away. As we parked and walked toward the field--with gazebos and a dock with seating--I immediately noticed how kid-friendly the vineyard is. The playground setup was incredibly creative and perfect for sparking a child's imagination. I honestly wish I had known ahead of time because I would have brought my little one! The property itself is beautiful and very well maintained. There were horses roaming around, which added such a peaceful charm. As we explored, I kept noticing thoughtful and unique touches everywhere--from a stunning wine tree to large decorative clay pots, and even buildings designed to resemble a Greek town that house classic cars. It all made the experience feel extra special. There was a wedding taking place, so part of the property was closed off, but it was easy to see how perfect this venue would be for an intimate "I do." Inside the main building, they offered a great selection of food, an impressive wine list available by the glass, bottle, or flight, and hands down the best wine slush I've ever had. My only critique is that it seemed like the AC wasn't working inside, and I really felt for the bartenders who were working so hard as it got busier throughout the day. Overall, I absolutely loved this place. It's one of the few spots that truly caters to both adults and children, and I'll definitely be back.

Very nice tasting experience. Gorgeous grounds. Large tasting room with ample seating…read more 2 tasting options, wine flights or wine by the glass or bottle. Tastings come with a small snack plate of cheese, meats crackers and chocolate. Wines are primarily Portugal varietals. We enjoyed most of the wines we tried and bought a few bottles as well. We will stop in again My rating rationale for beer, wine, or spirits: +1 Service +1 Atmosphere/Vibe +1 Taste/Quality (Flavor, aroma, and overall quality of the beverage) +1 Presentation (Glassware, garnishes, and visual appeal of the drinks) +1 Selection/Variety (Range of beer, wine, or spirit options and uniqueness of offerings)

Not simply because he was running late, but because the house (castle/waiting room/party room) was absolutely filthy. I was really taken aback by a business looking like this, even if it's a business that works w/ animals. When we got there, the owner and assistant were on a ride w/ another group. Then the group we were supposed to be riding with were an hour late, so we had to wait for them. It was just annoying, although Steven (owner) was friendly. When we walked into the empty house it looked like a construction space, a hen was walking around the inside and I even saw it poop IN THE KITCHEN! Things finally turned around when I hopped on Sherman (my white horse w/ black spots). He was a greedy little thing and ate up all the grass but he was a great horse. Steven immediately put ppl on the horses and taught us while we were riding. He was a straight to it teacher and I liked that. He definitely knows what he's doing when it comes to animals. He took a bunch of pictures and videos and sent them to everyone in the group. I'm thankful to have such awesome pictures that didn't cost us extra. I'm giving 4 stars despite the filth because Steven was friendly, welcoming, and I enjoyed the experience. Tip: -don't eat there if germs bug u -don't arrive early, there's no point -yes, you're in the right spot, even though it looks a little funky on the outside

He also never redeemed our Groupon. He has repeatedly messaged me and begged me to remove this review and has even reported it to Yelp to try to get it removed. Not only do I stand by my review but this Steven Strasburg owner has proved himself to not only be completely unprofessional but also desperate and dishonest. My advice: TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY for your business instead of accusing people of posting fake reviews or saying "it must've been another place". This is the ONLY time where an owner has not only not apologized but tried to say I'm posting for the wrong Castle Strasburg. How many Castle Strasburg horseriding places are there in Midland, VA? SHAME ON YOU!

As soon I pulled up to the property, I loved the structure of the buildings displaying pretty various stones. I couldn't take any pictures since it was pouring rain when I was there. They have plenty of free parking in front of the buildings. Also I noticed that everything was well kept up and pristine conditions. To their landscaping, restaurant and especially the hotel room. As soon as I got into my hotel room, I felt so relaxed. I love the ambiance and how calming everything is. The room was super clean and everything was placed so perfectly. I do not sleep well in hotel room beds but I was pleasantly surprised on how comfortable the bed was and I was able to get some needed rest. Literally everyone was super nice, friendly and helpful! I have to give a special shout to Marianne Postma-Harris for being so generous and accommodating, I really appreciated it! Marianne went above and beyond to ensure that I was well taken care of! She was beyond friendly and sweet! Breakfast is included in the stay which is a plus! You fill out the door tag menu they provide you and you leave it outside the door and then in the morning they bring it directly to your room. I had a veggie omelet and it was so delish! Def recommend that one for sure! Even though I didn't get a chance to take advantage of their restaurant or spa services, I plan on my next visit! It is such a nice local get away and also a great place to have a gathering or a special event! I cannot wait to go back that's how much I loved this place!

Owned by a South Asian it does cater to a lot of South Asian weddings but also other denominations. Pretty and large open space. However you have to park at the bottom of the Hill and walk up. If its cold or in heels, good luck. There is a small shuttle that will take 4-7 folks up but be careful getting in and out. If its early April and its cold, wear warm clothes like a overcoat. The bar and place for food buffets is outside...great for warm weather but not cold. The outdoor toilets flood so be aware. Nice large tent for guests but in cold weather don't depend on warmth from the heater as the door outside stays open a lot. Seems like a nice place to hold weddings with space but caveats beware.

Wedding planning is so multifaceted and Terry and her team hit the ball out of the park every single step of the way. From the moment I first met Terry, we hit it off. Not only is she wonderful at her job but she is an amazing person, which is so so important. She gives great advice, is always there to listen to you and seems to always know how to get you in the right direction. I am someone who gets overwhelmed when there are unlimited options and decisions to be made but Terry made it all easy. She caught my overall vibe so quickly and knew exactly what I would like and wouldn't like. She has so many resources and lists that help keep you organized and on track. She is a mind reader and has amazing taste! I truly cannot thank her enough for helping me plan the wedding of my dreams. THEN THE DAY OF THE WEDDING!!!!! I did not have one worry the entire day. Like AT ALL. Every single team member I walked up to on my wedding day, knew exactly what was going on, where my stuff was (this is huge because I lose everything), what needed to happen next, etc etc. I actually had some down time on my wedding day - which I feel like is unheard of!!! I got to sit and hang out with my bridesmaids and have FUN before walking down the aisle because Terry and her team kept everything on time and had everything moving behind the scenes flawlessly. All my guests have RAVED about Terry and her team. It just goes to show what a fantastic, flawless and professional job they did. In the end, words can hardly do justice to the gratitude and awe I feel for Terry and her exceptional team. From the moment we met to the magical day of our wedding, they were there, guiding us with their expertise, unflinching support, and flawless execution. I can honestly say that my wedding day was everything I had ever dreamed of, and more, thanks to Terry's unwavering commitment to making it perfect. If you're searching for a wedding planner who not only excels in their profession but also genuinely cares about making your dreams come true, look no further than Terry. She is an extraordinary person and an unparalleled wedding planner. Terry, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for creating the most memorable day of our lives. You and your team are simply the best.

Not only was the venue a beautiful setting for our important event, but the staff truly treat their couples like family. I have never seen a team go to greater lengths to ensure that their couples have the perfect wedding, from providing us with vendor recommendations within our budget to answering panicked midnight texts to settling issues with vendors on our behalf, we literally could not have done it without them. The day-of event went incredibly smoothly because of how prepared they helped us to be. If you're getting married, you'd be making a massive mistake not to consider Rixey Manor.

The venue was beautiful and all the staff were incredible, making sure our wedding went as smoothly as possible. Isadora and Grace were both exceptionally professional, kind, and courteous to us, our vendors, and our guests. They accommodated all of our requests throughout the planning process and during our wedding. We were especially amazed at how much backend work Rixey handled for us including setup, teardown, and wrangling of vendors. We didn't need to worry about any of that and everything came out perfectly. They also made absolutely sure that we were comfortable throughout. They kept us fed, helped the bride get ready, and regularly checked on us to make sure we were okay. On a more personal note, Isadora and Grace also went above and beyond with all of our floral needs, helping us put together our arbor flowers and a new beautiful bouquet for the bride with some of our spare flowers. At Rixey, you're in the hands of real pros who want your wedding to be perfect and are ready to go the extra mile to make sure that happens. Highly recommended. :)
