If you're looking for the perfect wedding venue, Red Cedar Farm is truly exceptional. My niece was…read morejust married there last weekend and I helped her plan everything, this place did not disappoint. The property is absolutely gorgeous and immaculately maintained--every corner is picture-perfect. It was an incredible backdrop for one of the most important days of your life. These memories and pictures are priceless. What really sets this venue apart is Andrea (the owner). She went above and beyond throughout the entire process, making everything feel seamless and stress-free. Her wealth of knowledge and experience is invaluable, and I can't recommend enough that you take her advice and listen to her vendor recommendations. From the breathtaking grounds to the exceptional service, Red Cedar Farm exceeded every expectation. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful venue or a better experience. If you're considering this venue, book it--you won't regret it! -Nicole G.

Everyone taking a look at the goats, burros, and chickens. And of course, the pinball machines were a huge hit for all who attended. The shuttle from the overflow lot to the grounds was flawless, continually running until everyone had arrived. Andrea was awesome, providing umbrellas for the wedding for the quick storm that passed through during the ceremony; she bartended when one could not be found; and even quickly responded to a spill on the dance floor. I can't say enough good about the venue or how much Andrea did to make my daughter and son-in-laws wedding so memorable. I will recommend Red Cedar Farm to all.

This is a truly unique venue that used to be roller rink and it was perfect for our reception. My only issue came the day before the wedding when I found out that the round tables (I had been promised) had been rented out to another wedding happening the same day. We had already purchased round table cloths, and our seating chart was for round tables which seat a different number of people than the rectangular tables that were left for me. So my husband and I redid the entire searching chart the day before our wedding. Luckily I had awesome bridesmaids who came to my rescue and helped me sort it all out. The response from the pavilion was, "Well you have enough tables right?" Technically yes, but you caused quite a headache for us the day before our wedding.

They have several ponds, streams and waterfalls. They have puppies, chickens, ducks, goats and all are very friendly. The layout is truly bliss. You can walk around the grounds to see all the animals, beautiful garden and water. The heart shaped pond under the gazebo was beautiful to get married on. We had about 50 guests at our wedding, a food truck for dinner and the reception in the barn afterwards. The barn was beautiful and was very well lit with a cute stage for speeches and dancing. Everything was perfect. The staff was incredibly sweet and helpful. Michelle and her husband are the sweetest and most generous people. They truly want you to have an incredible day and will do anything to make that happen. We can't thank them enough for making our day truly special. It was a dream come true and we couldn't have asked for anything more. We will add photos once we get them from the photographer!

This place is like being transported into a Nicholas Sparks novel/movie…read more It's even more beautiful than the secret garden. Every single place you look at is breathtaking. If you are an animal lover.... This is your dream spot!!! We got to feed the goats, hang out with ducks, a bunny, chickens , and two dogs. They have an awesome four legged tour guide that showed us around the property. She doesn't care for summer so she immediately went swimming. Once she cooled down she wagged her tail with excitement and led us down a path with a gorgeous view of the pond and a picnic table and fire pit. Exploring the flower gardens was so romantic. They say Ram (our second four legged tour guide ) is eight years old going on one! He doesn't care for swimming so he will lead you through the gardens to see the ducks, bunnies, and chickens. But once you have his attention.... You better give him all the petting! He will demand it Kevin and Denise are an incredible team! I'm blown away on how wonderful this place is. Kevin and Denise..... you guys put your hearts into this place and it shows. Thank you so much for sharing it . We travel a ton and we both agree that this is hands down our favorite spot!

If it wasn't for Airbnb, I probably would have never found Courter Country Farm...but I am oh so…read morethankful that we did! Looking for a place to stay overnight in the Poulsbo area on the app, I happened upon a listing for a renovated greenhouse with glass walls and ceiling, perfect for stargazing, that would make for a perfect, romantic weekend getaway for my wife and I. I booked it immediately. Upon arrival, we learned that the greenhouse was only one fantastic feature of a similarly incredible property. Courter Country Farm, run by a husband and wife combo, Kevin and Denise (fantastic, welcoming people!), is equal parts functioning farm, event venue (weddings in particular), campground, and country store. Apart from the main farmhouse, there's an attached "saloon" (open from 6am to 10pm) with functions as a community gathering place, complete with kitchenette, restrooms, pool table, chairs, patio deck and modest farm store, with items such as soaps and snacks available for purchase. The expansive property also includes a petting zoo, containing (at the time) the cutest little bunny I've ever seen (for sale! $25! we almost took him home!), goats in an adjacent fenced barn, alpacas down the hill, and a chicken run with at least one talented jailbreaking rooster, who apparently loves to show off his Houdini-esque escape act! Further down the hill, you will find the converted greenhouse/Airbnb rental, adjacent to the tent-covered, patio event space, where most of the larger events are held. Now, I know what you're thinking: glass house, glass walls...no privacy. No problem! The hosts make themselves scarce no later than 8pm, so you are left to your own devices in the evening. Campers staying at the single camp space, tucked away down a short forest path along a creek, are similarly encouraged to give the glass house a wide berth. It's important to note that, as it is a greenhouse with transparent walls, it can grow extremely warm when exposed to the summer sun, and lacking insulation, bitterly cold in the winter. Don't plan on spending the day hanging out inside during warm weather: let it cool down in the evening, and you'll be just fine when it's time for bed. A powerful fan is provided, if needed. Similarly, for the colder months, a heated mattress pad is provided; the hosts informed us that some previous patrons booked the room in the dead of winter, when the whole structure was encased in snow, and they loved the warm, cozy feeling of snuggling into a heated bed while the world froze around them. Honestly, that sounds pretty great, too! Additional features include a firepit, yard games, hiking paths, and porta-potties (for any after-hours needs, since the saloon closes between 10pm and 6am) help make Courter Country Farm a truly special destination for anyone looking for a cozy weekend getaway, without venturing too far from civilization. Proximity to Poulsbo is a huge plus; anyone who hasn't explored this Nordic novelty needs to do so, promptly! One of our favorite towns in the Pacific Northwest! Additionally, Port Gamble and Port Townsend are 15 and 45 minutes by car, respectively, meaning there is no shortage of amazing places to visit, just a short drive away! One more thing that definitely needs to be mentioned: if you are planning on hosting an event here, such as a wedding, Kevin and Denise will work gladly with your choice of caterer! Most other event venues require that you use whichever they are contracted with, but fortunately, Courter Country Farm doesn't have that requirement. Courter Country Farm is the sort of place I would love to own, develop and dwell in myself, if I had the talent and resources. Lacking both, my wife and I are thankful that Kevin and Denise are such fantastic stewards and hosts, who have put a substantial amount of work, care and love into making this place a magical venue for prospective newlyweds, overnight campers, and couples looking for a romantic weekend escape in one of the most unique BNB experiences out there. After staying in the glass house, I can safely say that have no stones to throw; Kevin and Denise will just have to make do with gushing praise instead.

They were always quick to answer any questions / concerns I had leading up to the wedding. And the day of they were punctual, and very accommodating to us. They spent some time with the bridal party, and took the time to actually get to know everyone. I think I heard "what a bunch of bad ass dudes!" From everyone, a few times. Haha! They did all of the set up, and clean up so we didn't have to worry about a thing. And the food.. it was AMAZING. Easily the best BBQ meal we have ever had, and all of our guests couldn't stop raving about how amazing it was even days after it was over. I highly recommend these guys for any catering needs.
