If you want a super laid back do-it-yourself kind of wedding, this is your place;if you are someone…read morewho needs consistent set plans and guidance sprinkled with a little elegance, you may want to look elsewhere. I booked this venue with full on Sweet Home Alabama (the movie) vibes. I am a city girl but with coronavirus still somewhat at play, we booked this charming country outdoor venue to ensure some social distancing. We initially loved the venue but what we were not told is that during the time of our wedding, they would be undergoing remodeling to the venue bathrooms and the designated area where we had our rehearsal dinner and got ready the day of our wedding.That upset me because it was not included in our contract nor was it aesthetically pleasing at all, no flooring & finishings, and we were not warned that they were going to be doing this until we arrived for our wedding weekend. I had to purchase a carpet myself for women's bathroom as they only had plywood flooring and guests were having to walk through wet grass in heels to get to bathroom as they did not yet have an entrance for the women bathroom. The venue is owned by a sweet couple who basically run the entire operation with some family, along with their friend who is the wedding coordinator. Very nice people, but not big on organization/planning. Ie- the day of the wedding my coordinator said they would be there in the morning to set up.The day came, my florists show up, and coordinator is not there, nothing is ready, so my parents and friends scrambled to set up tables and help florists. We had the venue until 11pm, but venue owners instructed dj to announce last call at 10pm.Little things like that, where we were told one thing by the venue and then those things never came to fruition, continued to happen which impacted my final review of venue.They offered us wedding props but said we would have to pay to rent them-fyi there is a much nicer venue down the road (who is booked out 2 years) that lets you use all props for free and charges the same amount as HPR. The weekend package includes wedding coordinator and shuttle bus amongst other things. Only crucial benefit in opting for weekend package is to ensure there is not a wedding at the venue the night before yours. The wedding coordinator was kind but did not do much(She created a day of time line, was present for rehearsal and was there to guide the wedding party down the aisle the day of...I felt that I had to do a lot of wedding day coordinating myself between venders like dj,florists,wedding party,photographer. At one point I had to call someone to escort myself and my entire wedding party by golf cart to the reception as I could not walk in my dress and my wedding coordinator was nowhere to be found.We also had little details promised to us for the reception that were not given because they told us they simply forgot. We were also told the venue had wifi for guests by the owner the day we toured the venue, but again this was not true as I asked for the wifi info during our wedding weekend and was told they did not have it by the same person who said they did. The reception area is beautiful and a huge part of why we committed to this venue. Beyond that, much of the the venue is travel by foot and all locations are just far enough away that, in a dress/heels/tux you really want to be diligent about how much you have to walk- separate areas of the venue include an area to get ready, the ceremony, to the reception.There is uphill/down hill, gravel and grass torrain.This is also why it was upsetting when my wedding coordinator was nowhere to be found when my and my wedding party needed to be introduced at our reception-we ended up being about a half hour late which my dj was upset about and instead of speaking with the coordinator, it was me! Overall, I clearly loved my wedding, the owners are very very sweet, but it just did not feel like they conducted things in the formal manner I had hoped for.

Classifying this as the hidden gem of Lancaster:…read more We ordered 4 different dinners and they were all amazing. Between the four of us we had the steak, scallops, chicken parmigiana, and the stuffed chicken. All the dishes were amazing. Packed full of flavor, and cooked to perfection. We had the chocolate cake and banana brulee. The cake was moist and rich but the real star was the banana brulee. The bananas were toasted and had a crisp sugary top. The only thing that I would change would be the music selection of top 40s hits. It seemed a little odd eating a beautiful steak while listening to Nicki Minaj. If you're in Lancaster you need to check this place out!

It was the weekend before Halloween when we briefly ended up at Hartland Farm. We were looking for…read morea pumpkin patch to take my niece & nephew to & were trying to stay close(within a half hour or so) to home. The sign to direct you to the "pumpkin patch" was small & easy to miss. If you weren't looking for a sign/ place to turn off you would be sure to miss it. Once we pulled off the main road we were on what seemed like a back dirt road. The patch itself was disdisappointing to say the least. As we turned in we were greeted by a big open field with a blow up play structure in the back, a pile of haphazard pumpkins(maybe 20 to 30) just sitting out in the open(they look like they had been purchased at various grocery stores within the last few days or even that day & there was a tractor off to the side pulling what could've possibly been a hay ride to I'm not sure where. The parking lot was free, unpaved, off to the side when you pull in & had maybe 10 cars, including ours that were there long enough to decide we weren't staying & then we left. As far as pumpkin patches go, I can't recommend Hartland Farm. Truthfully, if you're going just to pick out a pumpkin to decorate with carve, paint or whatever your selection would probably be better at any of the main box stores that are selling them. If you're looking for some fun fall activities to do, this is not the pumpkin patch for you. After we left HF we made our way out to Pigeon Roost Farm. It's located in Hebron, so it could be a bit of a drive depending on where you're coming from. This place embodies pumpkin patch, although there is a price to do most of the activities. You can select a pre cut pumpkin at various price points per pound for free.
