We had our wedding at Comus Farm this past spring, and it was absolutely perfect. It was actually…read morethe first venue we toured, and we knew right away it was special (we only looked at others so we could say we tried). We are not farm people, but Comus completely changed our minds -- many guests told us it was one of the best weddings they've ever been to. Important note: the photos are mostly undecorated, and even then, you can clearly see how beautiful the property is. That said, when Comus is fully decorated -- WOW. The Grand Barn and surrounding landscape are stunning. Planning was seamless. Between the farmhouse accommodations, Aisle Planner access, an AirBnB for family, breakfast the next day, couples massages, and multiple weather backup plans, everything felt thoughtfully handled. Because they only host one wedding per week, we had the property Friday through Sunday for all our events. Huge thanks to Lauren, Kara, and the entire Comus team -- professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. Whether you're detail-oriented or super laid-back, they handle it all with ease. We couldn't imagine a better place to get married.

The prices for a drink and a small bite were fair - only $10 for a beer and side of fries - but nothing special taste wise. A buddy got wings and said they weren't worth the cost.

If you're looking for something to eat before your round, I would definitely check with the staff at clubhouse about food options first, but this is a great alternative if you're looking for a sit-down meal in a relaxed atmosphere.

We tried many wines, including: -the Crossvines Cabernet Franc-raisin and almost Nebbiolo overtones; -the Crossvines Barn Door red blend-balanced and warm with a hint of spice yet low tannin; -the Fairway rosé, which was light with great flavor and perfect with spring foods; -and the Riesling and then house ciders, with cherry and peach popular with different people. We settled on a bottle of the White Blend, the "Front Porch". It was not groundbreaking yet likable worked as a clean canvas that went with a lot of foods, not oaky, tangy, sweet, or dry. I enjoyed the butternut squash soup. I watched my friend enjoying the Farmer's Market salad and wondered if I should have gotten that instead! My friend enjoyed her burger and fries. The burger was pretty big and looked satisfying. My friend said the crab dip was really good, too. The best part for me was trying their wines while engaging with our server and the general manager. We talked about some of the events like wine tasting and menu changes and line dancing. We saw more of the gorgeous venue and bookable space for 300 indoors. It was relaxing and enjoyable and while I couldn't eat many items due to a wheat allergy, I definitely wanted to return soon and enjoy the backdrop and support a local winery.

We reserved a private space with a private tasting, which made the day feel extra special and perfect for a large group. For many of our guests, it was their first time visiting this location, and everyone had such a great time. One of the co-founders, Greg, personally led our tasting and was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, welcoming, and checked on us throughout the afternoon to make sure everything was going smoothly. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. I also appreciated that some friends who don't drink were still able to enjoy themselves thanks to the non-alcoholic options. The property itself is beautiful with scenic views, plenty of space to relax, and such a peaceful atmosphere. We had amazing weather the day we visited, which made it even more memorable. If you are looking for a great place for a birthday, celebration, group outing, or just a relaxing day with friends, I highly recommend! We will definitely be back.

I had an awesome first experience at Rocklands…read more I joined a group of 15-20 on the first really nice Saturday of the spring season; it was fairly crowded but we got there right at opening to secure a large section of shaded picnic tables. There was PLENTY of seating still - lots of large and small tables scattered throughout the property. They also have seating inside the winery at a small bar. The wine itself was really nice; we had several bottles of the rose at the table. It was light, crisp, and easy to sip in the nice weather. I was impressed that they also had 2 non alcoholic wines; the non drinkers in our group were happy to have some options made just for them (which were delicious also). There is a third party pizza business that had food offerings; we had many different types of their pizza which were all good. Very smart to have a food option for folks to enjoy while we sip our wine. Overall, the property is wonderfully maintained and the wines meet all expectations. I'd recommend giving this spot a try if you're looking for a nice winery north of the beltway!

We recently celebrated my mother's 80th birthday at Spark by Hilton Germantown last Aug1, and the…read moreevent was a wonderful success. My mother was extremely happy, and our guests truly enjoyed the celebration. The event space is spacious and beautiful, with plenty of room for our decorations, dining tables, entertainment, and dancing. Since there was no other event scheduled that day, we were generously allowed to decorate in advance, which made our preparation much easier and less stressful. The kitchen area and available food warmers were also very convenient for serving our large group of guests. Dennis was friendly, professional, and very easy to communicate with. He clearly explained all the available options, answered our questions, and offered helpful suggestions throughout the planning process. Ariana was also extremely helpful. She assisted us with the room layout, open-bar arrangements, and room discounts for our guests. Her recommendations helped us use the space effectively and made the entire celebration run smoothly. We are very grateful to the entire team for helping us create such a beautiful and memorable 80th birthday celebration for our Nanay. We highly recommend this venue for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and other special occasions!

Hello All, We got…read moremarried on 11/12/2022 at Seasons At Magnolia Manor on a beautiful day. The theme was Under the Sea and the venue did a SPECTACULAR job! They set up everything, took down, packed my car for me after the reception. The team at the venue are AMAZING! The DJ (Cameron), gave me "Homework" to do before the big day of lists of activities and what songs to play for each item. He was VERY organized and followed the paper to a T with other songs that he felt would keep the party going. He also during one of the Vendor Nights at the venue gave us suggestions on what type of alcohol to buy and how many with garnish suggestions as well. Jennifer the venue owner was PHENOMENAL! Every question I had, every concern I expressed and every emotional moment I faced, she was there for me. She has one of the biggest hearts and is such a caring person. Picking this venue was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. There were days where my stress was taking over and I was worried that I would've forgotten things, but Jennifer and her calming voice reminded me that everything was going to be okay and they have everything handled. Amy Mosser and her husband Mike just blew me away with not just my engagement photos BUT with all of their hard work, dedication and care just made everything so smooth. I am not confident in myself since I started gaining weight because of my PCOS. BUT, Amy and Mike helped me fall in love with myself all over again and helped me boost my confidence by how they show how much they care about how I felt about my pictures. On my wedding day, Amy is pregnant and is running up and down stairs, outside, and just constantly moving. I did not see her sit down for even a minute and I was just amazed at how she made everything look and feel so flawless. She was very good with my autistic brother Patrick who I was sure he was going to take her home with his snuggle bears lol. Mike was not just my 2nd photographer, he was also my Officiant. Let me tell you, he let me know constantly how honored he was to be our officiant, BUT I was honored that he was so excited to do that for us and how he cared so much about our small details. Once I was down the aisle, the ceremony was maybe 10-15 minutes. But to us that was more than enough since we are not super religious and did not want a long ceremony. A few days before the big day, Mike called me on the phone and spoke to me about how things were going to go and wanted to know details about Jordan and I's relationship. He made sure the small details were in his speech and that it was a surprise to us . The Videographers were AMAZING! We used Mid 80s Media and let me tell you, they were amazing! They were constantly on the move making sure they captured every precious moment and little details that I am sure others have missed in other Weddings. They were very kind, patient and communicated well with everything. I am super excited to receive my video. The Seasons At Magnolia Manor team went ABOVE and BEYOND my expectations and I could not thank them enough. Please go on a tour with them and check out the venue, you will NOT be sorry. They love what they do and can do any theme your heart desires. BRIDES-Jennifer and her team do NOT make you feel like a paycheck like other venues do. Please give them a chance you will NOT be disappointed

They required temporary heating for client events and rented heaters from us for months, but failed to pay their invoices or return the equipment. I would advise anyone considering this venue to reconsider. If you are a vendor, insist on payment upfront to avoid the same issues we faced. Jennifer often made excuses about being sick or out of town, which complicated the situation further. There are plenty of other venues around that maintain a higher level of professionalism and reliability.

It was unfortunate that the couple was prevented from having their last dance due to a disagreement that got heated between the DJ and the venue owners who then abruptly turned on the lights and ended the reception, very bewildering to us all.

We also would recommend installing permanent bathrooms (the luxury portable toilets were better than expected) and providing heat in some way. We also had feedback from guests that the venue owners felt a bit overbearing and intrusive at times.
