I couldn't be happier with the endless support and execution of our wedding reception. I haven't stopped smiling, and its really because of Kevin & Cindy's attention to detail. I've lived in New York City for the past 10 years, but Ohio will always be home. Future brides do yourself a favor and check this place out:-) Kindra the Bride, April 13th 2013 xoxo

I went here for the first time for a wedding reception & it was really nice. The place was decorating beautifully, it was the perfect size and the price was great for what they provided. The second time I went was for a speaking engagement. Again it was nice and the food was fantastic, but the owner is going through a transitional period and I believe is selling this place. When I heard the name originally I thought it was some type of bar, but it's actually an events center. I tried to click on the website and it's down right now, so I don't know what the future holds for this little place, but if you're looking for an affordable and pretty location for a wedding reception, don't pass this place by without checking into it.

A working farm and store, open to public tours and events…read more We attended a wedding reception at Gorman Heritage Farm just north of Cincinnati, and we loved the farm! There are animals to visit and a small store with eggs, honey, produce, pasture-raised chicken, other local foods, fresh-cut flowers, and various books, clothing, and merchandise. For our event, they put up a huge tent, so we had breezy shaded dining. This was next to another covered structure, for a breezy shaded dance-floor. And there was a food-truck bar as well. In all, a clever use of their space for a fun comfortable event. We had access to their farm for self-tours, and i think there were guided tours and feedings, too, but we walked ourselves among and petted and brushed and fed the humped mini "zebu" steer, non-wooly Katahdin sheep, goats, mini horses, a mini donkey, mules, about six of rabbits of different kinds, and chickens. And beehives! We were there for a special event. The Gorman Heritage Farm is open to the public Mon-Sat for under $8 per person. Come see fun farm animals and products!

This is a very nice garden for not only the little ones, but the kids. It is actually a garden…read morewithin a larger garden. It is in Glenwood Gardens and covers 12 acres. They have a ton of parking and admission is $5.25 in season and $2.75 during winter months. However, since it is in a another garden then you will have to pay that admission too. I think it is $3. No one was at the gate when I came there, so I did not have to pay it. This garden is well maintained and has lots to see. There is a prairie and nicely paved trails. The highlight of the place is the storybook looking area called Discovery Garden. It has Trolley Garden, a spot were small trains run along the tracks. They had a haunted train and a Thomas train among others, running the tracks. The center piece of the area is the tree house called the Discovery Tree. My small one found it a bit creepy. The house is very nice and in the form of a face. You will find creature (not real ones) in there like an owl, bats, and an opossum. If you look closely, you can see gold fish and tadpoles in the water running past the tree house. My littles also liked the Garden Workshop, which is right next to the tree house. They have a few small animals in there like a turtle, a tarantula, a snake, and cockroaches. Outside of the workshop you can make it rain and pump water into buckets where you can then use it to water nearby plants. The staff that works there is very friendly. Off to the corner of the area is a small pastel colored house that kids can go in and have little tea parties. There is a large wizards hat that kids can play in and a small outdoor amphitheater/storybook area. There is also a misting tunnel shaped like a caterpillar that leads to the butterfly garden. The ground is very slippery through the tunnel because of the mist, so if you do use it, please be careful. Of course the garden has a gifts shop. That is where you pay for admission. They have a small play area in there with a toy train set up and an interactive machine as well. If you get hungry, don't worry, they have a small cafe. I can't speak much about it though because I did not check it out. This was a nice spot for me and my littles. They had lots of fun in the tree house and watching the trains. We spent about 2 hours there. This place is very picturesque and as calming as a place that kids run around can be.

You don't even have to bring children along if you don't have any. Young and old alike will never forget this wondrous place. There are seven smaller gardens to explore: -Frog & Toads Garden: Look closely among the lily pads and you'll see they are surrounded by frogs. -Wizard's Garden: Pass the purple hat, don't wake the dragon and take the bouncy bridge to the fairy garden.Just the metal sculpture of the dragon itself is worth it. They have purple lights for its eyes, too. -Trolley Garden: Four, small scale trains run on tracks surrounding some of your favorite storybook characters. Of course, there is Thomas the Tank Engine who was always a favorite of my son when he was younger. -Vegetable Garden: Raised beds will put you at eye level with common and not-so-common vegetables. -Grandma's Scent Garden: You'll be surrounded by smelly plants for your pretend tea party here. There's a plant there that smells like popcorn!! -Morph Garden: The caterpillars in this garden are huge! -Butterfly Garden: This garden is shaped like its favorite resident.

We visited the Oscar Station for the annual Jungle Jim's International Craft Beer Festival. The…read morespace is really cool and has plenty of room, indoors and outdoors to entertain people. There is a bar area with a very cool dry-cleaner style conveyor belt where they have different bottles on display. There's comfortable seating at the bar as well as tables off to the side. There are also bathrooms in this area of the event space that were clean and had plenty of stalls. This area can be separated from the next room, which is bigger and seems like it can be customized for different events. For this event there were a bunch of eight foot tables for the breweries. There are also a bunch of garage door style windows that can be opened to create an indoor/outdoor kind of feel to the space. Outside there is a large area where there was a stage with live music and food trucks were able to pull in as vendors. Overall the event space lent perfectly to the Craft Beer Festival and could be easily adapted for other events. It also can accommodate a variety of group sizes. We had a great time at the venue and will definitely attend future events here and if I was from the area it would be a great venue to consider hosting events as well.

From the moment you walk in you're greeted with old mill gears that are in still in place, a stone fireplace and gorgeous views. If you are a diy'r this is a dream to decorate.

The prime rib was flavorful and cooked perfectly. The pork loin was tender and the apple chutney was a perfect companion. The dinner service was seamless as well as the setup and clean up. If you're looking for an affordable venue without over the top options then this can't be beat. We would host another party here without question. Bravo, Mill Race. And a special shoutout to Kathleen, the event coordinator, she was a delight.

They had a bunch a round tables and a small stage for the entertainment. There was a rolling bar area that was by the entrance which was really just a makeshift closet space. The food was buffet style and was good. I went back for seconds so I can't complain. Staff was friendly and made the night enjoyable.
