They also had caesar salads plated at the end. There was a delicious charcuterie spread on a separate table as well as a scrumptious dessert table.

We had a microphone set up too to announce awards and everything flowed smoothly, all were in a good mood. This event was a hit.

I attended a nighttime event, so the lights were on inside and out. First, there is ample parking,…read morebut parking could quickly run out for a large event held indoors and outdoors. It is a simple venue with adequately spaced tables and chairs. The decor is likely up to the renter. We had heavy hors d'oeuvres. What I ate was delicious, and I fondly recall the flavors of the tiny crab cakes. The dessert bar was ample, and the few I enjoyed were delightful. Service was excellent, as they kept the food bar stocked throughout the evening. We had a cash bar in the back that was popular amongst the guests. The venue is appropriate for weddings and other parties. We stayed indoors because it was a cold night. It is conveniently located in Huntersville, next to the emergency animal hospital. The only question left to ask is, what is the cost?

The historic setting feels thoughtfully preserved and makes for a lovely evening out. Our drinks were great and very pretty, which matched the ambiance perfectly. That said, I found the food to be just okay for the price. It did not quite match the elevated look and feel of the space and felt overpriced compared to other places I have been. I would still go back again to try other items, because there were aspects of the experience I enjoyed, but it is not somewhere I would recommend off the bat without some caveats.

So it was a bit chaotic when we first boarded, took a good while to get drinks but the bartenders handled it with grace and friendliness. The bigger portion of the boat was upstairs where it could fit more people. However the indoors downstairs did have ac and a few seats. Only were seats around the bar upstairs. The ride took 3hrs, on a beautiful day it's an epic trip. It was hot but no rain to ruin it so it worked out perfectly. They had a dj onboard, don't know if he is part of the yacht crew or if he was hired by our social group. In any case he was awesome.

My husband and I got married at this venue on October 5, 2024. We toured this venue on March 19,…read more2023. When we had first toured the venue we were told that the base price was 7900 which included the day of one hour rehearsal, and set up of tables for reception and ceremony when we had toured the venue it was a seemingly nice venue, family owned and very communicative. After we had chosen this venue for our wedding day and put down our deposit we were then told that we would not be able to schedule our wedding rehearsal until the week of the wedding, this came as a shock since we were not told this when we had first toured the venue. As time went on, I would frequently message and email the person I had toured with which was Kerry the woman who owns the venue. Whenever I reached out or asked a question there was a very late response, short response or no response at all. The only time that the people from the venue were responsive was when it came to money. Also, when it came to money, they recommended that we paid everything in cash in which we did I would follow up, always asking for some sort of receipt or documentation in which they never provided any. Finally, when the wedding came, we were able to book the rehearsal a few days before the wedding. We also had to do our bar services through the venue since they do not let you provide your own alcohol or your own bartenders. You have to do a package through the venue. The day of the wedding was fine, but there were a few things that I would like to note. The bar staff came right before the bar opened at seven and nothing was prepared. They served warm beer and barely had any mixers. The wedding guest complained about the drinks, the service and the lack of accommodation. For example, we had to provide our own water so my mom went and bought 6/7 cases of water which they did not give to guests so at the end of the night she just ended up taking them home. The father of the groom even went up to order at one point and was not serviced right away, even though there were three bartenders and no one in line for the bar. For bar services we paid over $6000 for three hours of open bar for 150 guests. I also want to note that prior to the wedding. I had reached out to Cody (son of Kerry) who also works for the venue and asked if the caterer that we hired would be able to serve beer/wine which he had quickly responded with a yes, when the day of the wedding came, the bartender said they would not be able to give the beer or wine to the waitresses due to, the possibility of it being served to people under 21. Also, during the ceremony we had popped some confetti made out of paper. Quickly after the manager, that was there came up to some of our guests/ wedding party that had popped the confetti and had asked them to immediately clean it up rather than asking them to do it at least by the end of the day. There was also a situation with the projector, not working. We had made a slideshow to show our guest and the projector was not working properly. After the wedding, I followed up with the venue to let them know about my experience which I spoke with the owner and she had excuses for why she was absent and just reiterated how great their venue is despite our experience. I'm writing this review to warn others who are looking into finding a venue for their special day. I would not recommend working with this venue, considering they are unresponsive, not accommodating, sketchy. Not sure who all this situation is relatable for but I hope no one else has to experience this type of unprofessional service.

The magnolia trees are what dreams are made of.

Disappointing Stay - Not What You'd Expect from Marriott…read more Spent the weekend here with my husband and had a terrible experience.
