I don't care what there political beliefs are, but IMO, a hospitality service shouldn't do something so provocative in such a divisive climate.

We were warmly greeted by staff when we got here, got the camper set up and came in for some food and a tasting. They have a nice menu of appetizers, salads, flatbreads and sandwiches. We got the 3 dip combo which was salsa, buffalo chicken and a southwestern bean dip. They were all really good. We both had a wine tasting of 4 wines and ended up getting a bottle of the Lazy Days Itasca. It was a crisp white wine that was refreshing while sitting outside on the patio. The menu does have a considerable amount of sweet wines but does have a few dryer wine. They also have wine slushes on the menu that we tried that were really good.

So, for the wine "purists" out there, remember, these are not necessarily like nice, earthy pinots, merlots or cabernets that you pour in a big glass and enjoy with dinner. More like light, sweeter pino grigios or rieslings. We drink them mostly like sweet dessert wines (think port) in small glasses after a meal or late in the evening. If you come at them from this perspective, you won't be disappointed as you might be if you went here looking for a conventional table wine. Great location, nice facilities, enjoyable wines and pretty good food. I had the Norwegian sandwich - VERY good. It's out past the Seed Savers, so if you are looking for something to do after visiting them - this may be just the ticket. Highly recommended.

I waited a while to write this review because I wanted to be fair. If I had written it the day of…read morethe event it would have been 1 star. Given the time of further consideration, I think 3 stars is legit. Here's the deal: I attended a family wedding here earlier this summer. The bride & groom were radiant, their friends were ecstatic to participate in their nuptials & everyone in the family was thrilled this day had arrived. We were all eager to celebrate. The venue at The Court Above Main, meaning the large room where the wedding & reception took place, is gorgeous. With high ceilings & floor to ceiling windows there is plenty of natural light on a sunny afternoon. It's elegant & creates a lovely mood as the guests anticipate the blessed event. Finally, the moment arrives...the wedding was a delight. Soon after, pictures began & most of us were quickly scooted out of the wedding venue to a small outside ante-room which turned out to be the bar. There were about 120 guests. Thankfully, not the 150 expected, or this would have been even worse. That's 120 people all eager to get a drink at a small counter with 2 very nice, but obviously overwhelmed, bartenders. Once everyone had their drinks we were all stuck in this ante-room where there were a few tall tables & at most, 8 places to sit. It was a hot summer day & this room didn't have enough air conditioning. Everyone was sweating, there was practically no place to sit, there was barely room to stand, and not a bite to nibble on. (I realize that may have been an error made by the wedding couple in terms of not considering appetizers of any kind. However, what legitimate venue purporting to provide exceptional wedding services would allow an oversight like this without being sure the wedding couple seriously understood the importance of something to eat while drinking alcohol?). We were stuck in this situation for more than 2 hours! That's how long it took the room where the wedding occurred to be transitioned with tables & chairs for the dinner. Yup, 2 hours of being too hot, with aching feet, and no place to escape. Being a wedding, there were several elderly family members in attendance who were able to snag the few available chairs. But not everyone. So finally, people started trying to go in the main room where the tables & chairs were being set up & where it was much cooler because the AC worked almost too well. Those who tried got yelled at! That's hardly a welcoming vibe. The reason this transition took so long is because there were only 2 people on staff doing all the work. I have a good friend who manages wedding events & when I told him about this wedding, he said they always have a minimum staff of 5 for this number of people so they can ensure the transition happens in no more than 20 minutes. Now that seems reasonable. Once we were finally seated for dinner, the same 2 people were the only ones both serving & clearing. They were nice enough, but it all took way too long. I've gone on long enough. I'll finish by saying with this size venue & their limited staffing, I'm sure it could be a lovely wedding for 50 people, 75 at the most. Otherwise, it's simply not a large enough space, at least for the drinking portion of the event. And you'd be smart to insist there are a minimum of 4 staff to handle transitions & serving. Also insist there are enough tables & chairs in the bar area.

I was a wedding guest here in September. The venue itself is great, a cool cocktail room, and the…read moremain reception are is also nice. It's on the smaller side, so don't expect to have 150+ people and be comfortable, but for the clientele it serves, it's a great option. My frustration is with one of the bartenders. I ordered an old fashioned, a fairly common drink for most wedding-goers. The bartender made the drink, placed it in front of me, and said that it would be an extra $2 because "it's all alcohol, compared to other drinks." He caught me off guard, seeing as everything else other than top-shelf liquor is included in an open-bar package. The drink wasn't made with premium whiskey anyhow, unless Jack Daniels is considered premium in this neck of the woods. Anyways, if they're going to stiffarm you for an extra $2 here and there, so be it. But, to make your drink, set it down in front of you, and then ask for extra money, that's just unprofessional. Be upfront about it. The drink would've been better served tossed in his face, as his bartending skills were more insulting than anything.

The "rules" about how beer and wine would be purchased and dispensed where ill defined.
