I was impressed with how clean it was and it definitely gives a new meaning to a down-home country feel. The hosts Justin and Dane sealed the deal for me. They helped me envision my dream wedding. Thank you, you too. Can't wait to get hitched at the end of 2022. Won't be the last time you see me. You're going to make my family reunion the best by far!

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. I would have had the same issue if it was a Bernie Sanders flag. We went there to relax and get away from the tension. Instead, it's there flying high above the campground. Too bad.

I can no longer eat dairy and they were super responsive to my needs. The food is incredible!! Dairy free chicken pot pie-what?!? Yes please!! The rooms are comfortable and the grounds are beautiful. I always find a new path, or swing or something. Additionally I could sit and watch the birds all day! The cardinals and big blue jay and woodpecker and the list goes on and on. The birds flock to the feeders and I could sit and watch them all day. The also have a pool, hot tub and sauna which are a real treat! It is also conveniently located to the Minneapolis and a super easy drive. I'm looking forward to going back in the winter!

It was a pleasant surprise seeing more development by the airport, from hotels to restaurants. I checked out Rochester International Event Center. I like the fact that if you have a wedding or some major function at this centre, you can fly in, stay at a hotel nearby, and enjoy yourself. This event centre has a ton of parking. It's free, which is nice when such a place is by the airport. You normally need to pay. This event centre has the largest ballroom in Southeast Minnesota. It's over 13,000 square feet. Accessibility is decent, where you can park by the main doors and have those needing assistance enter the centre without dealing with steps or a ramp. This place hosts a number of events, including weddings, conventions, meetings, seminars, and corporate events. It may be a bit far if you live in northern Rochester to some, but it's an easy drive down highways 52 and 63. The food menu looks good. I wish that i was invited to an event at this place! It was nice finding this event centre. There wasn't anything happening when I was here on a Friday evening in early April. Perhaps it's busier on weekends. (165)

The little barn houses, the field, everything was inviting and elegant, yet rustic and homey. The outdoor ceremony area was also great, with benches set up, a beautiful gate for the married couple to walk in through, etc. The staff were super atttentive and friendly. My only gripe was that they did not seem well equipped to handle super cold weather (there were some blankets) but the ceremony was super chilly and I wish the heat was turned on more in the dining area.

When…read moredriving up the road, all that can be seen is a house with a small sign on the gate but we quick saw that there was a lot more waiting just over the hill. I had arrived early to get ready at the bridal suite which was in one of the little buildings. It had the restrooms inside on the first floor & the bridal suite on the second. There were only three of us bridesmaids, but even with others stopping in to see the bride, there was plenty of room to get ready. The best part was that there was a lot of natural lighting & lots of mirrors for us to use. I didn't see the grooms suite but there was a separate building for that as well! The wedding ceremony area had luscious grass with seating benches for the guests & big wooden doors for a grand entrance. It was nice for the wedding party to be able walk down & then have a pause (with doors closed) as the bride stepped up for her entrance. The reception was then held inside the big barn building just off to the side from the ceremony. The space was large with wooden tables & chairs set up for guests. Although we didn't use it, there was a firepit next to the building for use as well! Drinks & appetizers were served before the reception started at the side barn building. It was just a few feet away from the main reception. My favorite though, was the barn space that was first seen when entering the venue from the parking lot. Our friends had opted to utilize it for photos to put inside the guest book! Overall, a cute venue. Since I was a guest, I don't know any of the logistics of touring / reserving the space but my friend (the bride) did say that they're booked up pretty much every weekend!
