Folks were coming and going well after the show started. I could be just overreacting but i hate when folks talk, make noise, etc during a concert which is what this was. The bathrooms were in full view of the stage. They should really put a partition or curtain up in front of them so viewers watching the show don't see folks coming in and out of the restrooms. Plus they just let the doors slam loudly. Nevertheless, the show was fantastic. It was a cozy venue, and it beard going to downtown Nashville!

I had my wedding at The Lodge this past June. They had just opened this venue up as a wedding venue…read morea few months before. Let me first say the venue is gorgeous! When my now husband and I visited The Lodge for the first time, we knew this is where we wanted to get married. We loved that it was a completely open venue and we could use any caterer, bartender, florist, etc. that we wanted to use. They also offered a day of coordinator. Brandy was my day of coordinator, and she was awesome! She kept us on time and made sure we did everything we wanted. My florist didn't leave my toss bouquet so she picked flowers from their garden for me! She was awesome!!! Why the 3 stars? Everything between when I have them my payment to when Brandy took over was not fun. Before booking, we were constantly in contact with Holly. She answered our calls, she met with us, etc. Once I have them the payment, she went completely ghost. She never returned or phone calls and barely returned our emails. Maybe something was going on in her life, but she should have told us to contact someone else. We literally drove to the site unannounced so that we could talk to someone. The staff there was extremely friendly, including Holly when we could talk to her. They always accommodated us when we showed up, but it was stressful due to the lack of communication. Overall the experience was positive, and the venue is gorgeous! I hope with a several more months under their belt as a wedding venue will help them with the lack of communication issues.

Our wedding was a destination, so we worked very closely with Kayla Jolly our coordinator, as well…read moreas some other contacts at The Lodge. From the beginning we (bride and groom) fell absolutely in love with this building and the grounds. However, being from out of town it is a little hard to find as the venue is not well marked and actually sits on the land for the YMCA. It also functions as the Nelson Andrews Leadership Lodge which led to some confusion at times. We worked with Kayla for 15 months planning every detail of our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour, indoor reception, and sparkler send-off. Needless to say on the day-of, a late bus pickup and poor weather basically sent our plans into chaos and Kayla worked very hard to give us an equally beautiful event from what we had planned. She really held it all together, and held me together too! The Lodge works only with Dream Events catering, and at first we weren't thrilled to receive this news. However, Kayla and her team made sure Dream knew about our concerns and when we were able to meet with them, they were sure to go above and beyond for some dietary needs, and the many changes that occurred. Since this was a destination wedding, Kayla helped me to select a vendor for rental items, and then she managed the relationship for me, which I appreciated as well. I am thankful that The Lodge selected such reliable partners for us to work with, another example of how well this venue is managing their business. Overall we did have some ups and downs but we are so thrilled with our friends at the Lodge, and can't wait to receive our wedding pictures back. We highly recommend this venue.

The venue is absolutely beautiful and they have 3 different locations on the property to have the wedding and another for the reception. We picked out the location where my daughter had her heart set on and as the day approached, the weather was not looking good at all. The day of the wedding, it showed strong thunderstorms to begin about the time guests were set to arrive, so they had set everything up for the back up rain plan, which was still beautiful. About an hour before guests were to arrive, the radar was showing the rain would move just around where we were for the time of the ceremony. Knowing how much my daughter loved the original space, the owners Shelley and Shawn, got straight to work and moved everything to the space she had her heart set on. They went above and beyond throughout the entire process to help in any possible way you could imagine. Everyone had a wonderful time and couldn't stop gushing about how beautiful everything was! The venue is amazing and working with Shelley and Shawn made it that much more amazing! I can't say enough great things about the venue or Shelley and Shawn and will never be able to convey my appreciation for everything they did for us! They will forever be considered family in our eyes! If you are looking for a magical place for a wedding, please go check this place out! You won't regret it!

Lush green gardens, and a nice inside with exposed beams and classic wood flooring make for a simple and rustic venue. There's a porch area complete with bench seating and ceiling fans with lighting that are great for a summer or spring day that fades into a lovely sunset for an evening of fun. Ample street parking is available for guests. My only gripe would be the occasional roar of traffic or passing semi trucks on the nearby interstate during an intimate outdoor ceremony. However, its not enough to dock this place a full star. Although I didn't get to see it I do know that there is an upstairs room available as well. Great venue all around.
