This place is such a gem! We had my daughter's open house here, and it was perfect. The setting is…read morean old school that's been updated but its architecture is still sympathetic to the 1940s. It's spacious, clean, and the A/C in the hot months is a must! We were given a large kitchen space for food prep, and there's a nice bar space with ice machine, too. The owners are incredibly communicative, and they are in the building during the event. They stopped by a couple times to take care of the garbage and check in. It would also be a great spit for a wedding! I can't recommend it enough!

The Jam Handy is a fascinating venue where Nate and I attended a wedding recently. Located kind of…read morein what felt like the middle of nowhere, there's not a lot of parking nearby but street parking is available and you may have to walk a bit. There is a small parking lot at the Jam Handy, but we weren't really sure if we could park there, even for the rehearsal the day before the wedding. The space is historic and you can read about it online, but it served as a sound stage for the Jam Handy Organization, which specialized in industrial films and filmstrips for General Motors and the United States Armed Forces. The venue itself is a bit rustic and industrial, and serves as a blank canvas for whatever vision you have for your event. In this case, it was a wedding with lots of beautiful flowers and floral arrangements and green plants everywhere. The bar when you entered was a great touch, and guests were able to have a glass of wine before moving to the ceremony room, which had a floral backdrop. This space was turned into the late night dance party area as well. There isn't much around this venue, so don't plan on a lot of bar hopping nearby before your event. In fact, most of the bars didn't open until 5 pm on Friday, the day of the wedding. The only other downfall of the venue was having to go downstairs to use the restroom. There is one gender neutral restroom on the main floor but it was occupied 99% of the time I tried the door. Just something to note for people with mobility issues, high heels, etc. I also noticed some uneven areas in the floors. Overall I had a great time at this venue and was impressed with how it was transformed from the rehearsal time to the wedding itself! Sometimes I think spots like this are a little too much of a blank space for someone like me, who lacks creative vision to turn a place like this into something really beautiful. However, with the right team and vision, it can be exceptional!

I get it, same longitude and wines should grow similar and all that jazz, but Michigan wines outside of the sweeter styles really never taste right to me. Well whatever they are doing here is nothing short of scientifically brilliant. Probably some of the best MItten Vino I have ever had and that assessement is from traveling all around the state and trying different areas. The Frontenac, Petite Pearl, Marquette were my favorites by far. But my five stars isn't for the wine, it's for the sheer joy this place brings me. Absolutely beautiful campus with sheep and goats and a big white furball of a dog who looks so adorable but is trained to kill any possible threat to his wards. The large barn event space and indoor seating is nothing short of gorgeous and of course sitting outside is just pure joy. I will add more pics as I come across them.

It is very clear why this is an in-demand wedding location. The dinner included salad, from scratch stone-fired pizza, and of course, wine. The pizza was excellent and I will definitely be getting one during my next visit. There were quite a few different wines on their menu and I tried some samples of whites, Rosé, reds, and ports. They were all very good and a few were quite unique. My favorite was the Marquette Double Barrel. We ended up buying 3 different bottles during our visit. The service was excellent and the owners are very friendly. This is a family business and they are doing a marvelous job.

My husband found some unique signs for his "man cave", my daughter bought candles for her room. They not only look beautiful, but, they smell good enough to eat! Great job to whomever made them! She also bought christian verse rings for her and her boyfriend. I bought the cutest garden ornaments and wind chimes for our deck. The Columbiaville Flea Market seems to have everything! Antiques, new items, craft items and so much more. The people are great too. Believe it or not, we even had hot dogs, nachos and pop at their deli area. Like I said, this is certainly more than a flea market, and, yes, we will be going back there very soon. I'm a new customer and I was very impressed. I recommend them to all of my friends and family.
