I stayed for one night in a room with a king size bed. I checked in super late at night (around…read more11pm) and the receptionist at the front desk was helpful. The room itself was so spacious and clean! It was a great place to stop for a night. The breakfast was a standard hotel breakfast, with a waffle station, a small continental breakfast station, and a good variety of pastries and cereals. Checking out was a little awkward since all we had to do was drop our key card in a basket (I thought there would be more steps), but a great place overall.

They should have inspected and asked for a different room.) the front desk lady Claire was nice at check in. They have, as other pictures show, a sundry area and big breakfast area. Good coffee, not strong but good; and the other stuff looked good too but was very crowded so i stayed away except to grab eggs and sausage which were some of the better fresher eggs at hotel breakfasts I've had. Not bad at all overall but the rooms have such thin walls i could hear Everything, no exaggeration. Except for the wrestlers pounding on someones door in the morning, i would stay again.

My son and daughter-in-law just got married there, and it was truly a fairy-tale wedding. The…read moreowner Dan greeted us immediately when we arrived the morning of the wedding, and he made sure the set up was exactly what the couple wanted. We were able to use the house to get ready and keep our personal items, and he was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. When the big moment arrived, guests were in awe at the beauty of the chapel area and reception room. The service was impeccable, and when guests spilled or created a mess, Dan himself responded immediately to keep the area clean, safe, and presentable. We had a beautiful moment after the dancing started... Dan opened the large back doors to reveal the sunsetting over the fields, and there was a collective "wow" by all the guests. Over the course of the afternoon and evening, we had guests taking pictures on the property, playing bags in the field, enjoying drinks on the grounds, eating, and dancing. Not one guest had a negative comment. Everything was absolutely perfect! Thank you Dan and Hudson Farm staff for making this day everything my family hoped it would be. I can't wait to get the pictures and relive this precious moment at this beautiful farm again.

The facility is very clean and spacious with high ceilings, and they have it beautifully set up with nice lighting. There was plenty of room for our buffet, table seating for everyone to sit down for dinner, the 360 photo booth that we rented, the bar, and the dance floor. Though everything inside the reception barn is picture perfect, when Dan opened the barn door at about 7:00 pm, all of the guests were blown away. We had a perfect evening with pleasant temperatures and a gorgeous sunset, and it became and indoor / outdoor event in a beautiful pastoral setting. The graduates and their families had such a fantastic time in a unique setting that made for a night we will never forget. Dan was so easy to work with and he and his staff worked so hard behind the bar to provide excellent service. Highest praise for Hudson Farms - its a gem. You will not be disappointed.

Unfortunately, the electrical upgrade to the campground was delayed until March/April of this year instead of being done in the fall of last year. Now the camping sites are in the process of trying to grow new grass as the sites are being used. While the electrical upgrades were needed and appreciated, the need for a previously discussed lighting upgrade within the campground has not been completed and poses an additional Safety Hazard to occupants of each upgraded site beyond that which already existed. Finally, Daily rates were increased from $17.00/site last year to $25.00 (30 amp) or $30.00 (50 amp) for the 2022 camping season. Longtime and dedicated Friends Creek campers feel that such a drastic cost increase is not justified and in fact, will have A negative impact to the 2022 season. Many of the dedicated campers have already started using other local campgrounds that provide better lighting, larger wash facilities, numerous playgrounds and local restaurants, and for a substantial decrease in daily rates.
