The beauty of this venue shines so bright. Everyone attending said this was the best wedding venue they've ever been to, and I would have to 100% agree. We booked with Ivory North for venue & photos before it was finished and I don't think I've ever made a better decision. April and Blake's love for each other and their family is so reflective through their work and truly draws them apart from other wedding vendors. In my job experience, I work with a lot of different brides and wedding vendors, and EVERYONE had nothing but amazing things to say about them. If you are even considering getting married here, you actually need to get married here. Don't bother anywhere else. It's worth the drive to Mora, I assure you. Shoutout to Ryan for running the operations day of and being so accommodating to our needs for the wedding! He was a fan favorite from everyone and definitely eased a lot of the random little concerns that come up on the day of. April and Blake, thank you again and again for coming into our lives and making our day so incredibly special. I cannot thank you enough!

We stayed at Grandpa's Pool House for a bachelorette party, and it was the perfect setting. We…read moredidn't want to bring any decorations, which worked out great because the space is already full of awesome vintage details, plenty of Instagram-worthy photo ops, plus cute cups, wigs, and costumes that are perfect for a bachelorette celebration. The house layout was great for a medium-ish groups: two bedrooms on the main floor, a loft with a couch (and room for an air mattress), and two bedrooms downstairs. We had a group of 12, which I'd say is probably the max, a few people ended up sleeping on couches and I'm not sure how comfortable they were. The indoor pool was such a highlight! We spent most of our time there. It's heated, has Bluetooth speakers for music, and even a projector (though we didn't end up using it). There were plenty of floaties, and it was a great space to relax and hang out as a group. The pool could have been just a bit warmer, but we went in the spring when it was still a little chilly outside--I imagine it's perfect in the summer when the sun warms the space more naturally. Parking was super easy. All 12 of our cars fit in the driveway with no issues, and the house was easy to find. A few small cons: * Since we visited in spring, I'm not sure the place had gotten its full seasonal cleaning yet, some of the windowsills and the area outside were pretty dirty. * The fridge was a bit small for a group of our size. Definitely bring extra coolers, especially if you're stocking up on drinks. * There's no recycling available. We ended up bringing all our recycling home because we didn't want to throw it in the trash.

No concrete paths, the ramp to upper level is steep and gravel, stairs to upper level are steep, and no elevator. Food service was terrible, took over 2 hours to get everyone their food, wedding we attended started at 4, hang out from 430 to 530 doing nothing dinner started at 530 and my table didn't eat till 745 and by then everything was cold. Now we will hit on beverage service, $6 for a 12oz can of beer, $9 for an 8oz cocktail, no water at tables but there was a small jug at the bar that was constantly empty. Temp control is another issue but to their defense it is an old barn. I personally don't know why these venues are the current craze but if it was me shelling out the cash id look somewhere else thats more guest friendly....

The grounds are super well kept, the hosts (husband/wife) went above and beyond with making sure everything was in place for our families special day! There is a beautiful space off to the side for the outdoor portion of the ceremony with authentic church pews, so so pretty! The barn itself is super spacious, plenty of room, I loved the wing area, which was perfect for the dance floor space. The food/catering/bar service company were all very awesome. Food was very tasty, servers were very professional and the bartenders made it a fun evening! Plenty of parking with a beautiful walk up a ramp leading into the barn. There is also this gorgeous outdoor patio with a cute fireplace outside, this was great for people to find another place to socialize throughout the day. Having a bridal suite and groomsmen room onsite was also a huge plus. Both had lots of space for everyone to get ready. I highly recommend you to check out Bloom Lake Barn to host your wedding or event!

They blew us off I am assuming because we are not regulars. We ordered a pizza and they gave it to someone else by accident. Instead of feeling bad, they were dismissive of us. The lady on the table who got our pizza apologized. But the workers seemed to ignore us. Nice place but if you want a friendly easygoing experience skip it and go to another winery. Gave it a two because the unfriendliness brought down our night. Then my husband went up to the counter to ask a question she ignored him and talked to others behind us. Very disappointing.

The Explore Pass allows "free" entry and limited access to some of the activities--bumper cars, laser tag, ball fort, laser maze, and a 360° video game. The laser tag arena is much bigger than i thought it would be (looking from the outside). Fun Lab is big enough to house multiple fun activities, but not too large so watching kids is a nightmare. There are non-inclusive activities (more $$) that seem fun. There is a cafeteria, too. Pros: - Lots of cool activities - Indoors - Great deal if you get the Explore Pass Cons: -Blaine is somewhat put of the way for us

We walked in unsure what to do and stood next to two staff at the front desk for a couple minutes before being greeted. We used our explorer pass from Groupon which allowed for a visit do try most of the attractions. A lot of stuff was broken (laser tag maze, laser tag vests, games, blowers in the ball area) or no staff were available to let us know how to use it. What we could use was fun the bumper cars and arcade were favorites for our five year old. We purchased an additional pass for the bumper cars he had to go again. Overall it was okay for the prices, but there are other options around the cities if you're willing to spend a little more.
