The rooms were beautifully decorated with thoughtful details. Everything was clean, cozy, and comfortable--I especially loved the clawfoot tub and high bed. Breakfast was phenomenal. Ms. Pontheolla puts care into every meal and you can taste it. The grounds are peaceful and inviting, with plenty of spots to relax, including a wraparound balcony that's perfect for unwinding. With only a few rooms, it feels like a private oasis. The Abernathy's were personable, warm and welcoming, which made our stay even more special. I highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

The birthday party proceeded perfectly well. All Big E staff did their jobs with care and perfection! They were all attentive to the needs of the host and seemed to really want to make this a memorable event for the birthday boy and his friends. There's eight movie screens, a full sized bowling alley, climbing and jumping activities to help keep the kids energy levels manageable. In better weather outside there's also a rather large and impressive miniature golf area. I can't believe that I've missed out on this fun place to take children to.

Stop looking for wedding venues!…read more This is the place. I can NOT say enough good things about Danielle and her staff at The Duncan Estate. Here's my experience: I got married Dec 1st, 2018. I wanted a Christmas themed wedding. It poured rain the day I got married. Literal buckets and buckets! But because of the affordable price of the venue I was able to rent heaters and sides for the tent that was already provided. The last thing a bride wants is rain on her wedding day although they say it's good luck. Danielle and her staff busted tail with my wedding planner to make sure everything was magical. The rain didn't affect any of the intimate moments we wanted of our day. I swear that this is because of Danielle's organization and coordination with my planner. Rehearsal dinner issue: I had a lot of trouble with the first few venues we chose to do the rehearsal dinner at. Communication was not a priority to them and I was really struggling. Luckily Danielle was there. I contacted her in a frenzy 2 weeks prior to our event (don't wait that late!). She not only handled our wedding, but we got to have our rehearsal dinner there too. Which made it so nice to not have to change scenery with so many people. We had it catered right there on the property after our rehearsal. It made things so easy on us. I recommend asking if you can cater the rehearsal here as well if it's an option. It was very affordable and also allowed us to feel better about the big day. COMMUNICATION: Of course I had no idea what I was doing when I showed up to look at the Duncan Estate, but from the time we signed our agreement to even the week after, Danielle was there. She sent me so many resources to help me budget, plan, even questions and things I had not thought of. She answered all of my emails in a timely manner and communicated with me often. This is so CRUCIAL when you are looking for a venue. FINANCIALLY: Trying to save money? Of course you are. Weddings are costly. The Duncan Estate was so affordable! Includes table, chairs and a tent in your price! She also gives discounts for different weekends depending on supply and demand. I think this is important to know because this helped us afford sides and a heater for the tent. She was very considerate of us having to rent these for a December wedding. THE LOOK: But I want my wedding to look phenomenal! Of course you do and since Danielle cares about all those details she has dedicated so much time and effort to preserving the Duncan Estate and also to making sure your details are the way you want them. Danielle spent a lot of time answering my questions and going over the events of my day. She spent 2 hours with me, the groom, and the coordinator combing through every detail a couple of weeks prior. It made the day of events move as smooth as they could. I can't imagine not having someone so organized with all the rain delays and junk we had with the weather on our wedding day. The bottom line is you can't control outside circumstances like the weather or companies with bad communication. But you can control who you choose to handle your special day. Choose the Duncan Estate. I promise Danielle will make sure your wedding is everything you want and more.
