“(We got such great pictures) Kathy went above and beyond what I expected, when I realized I underestimated my decorations she pulled some out from their stash and helped decorate.”

From the reviews

The farmhouse Retreat was by far the best venue that I’ve ever been a part of. As a background with events/party rental experience, the farmhouse retreat over-delivered, and went above and beyond to ensure that my event had everything needed to make is special. They also had a hand on site to help us, Kim.

If you want a true Farmhouse / Country style wedding - Get away… Farmhouse retreat is the place to go. The 1800’s theme was amazing!! We even had an outdoor shower that would have been amazing in the 70* weather we booked it in! There is even an old down “downtown” area. It is a must see when looking at venues!

★★★★★ — Katie, Feb 2022

Great place for a weekend getaway! This is a gorgeous outdoor/indoor venue for a wedding but it’s also a fun place to stay to get away from it all. My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay; the property is beautiful and the hot tub underneath the stars was amazing. Ashley was very helpful the entire time.

★★★★★ — Caitlin, Jun 2020

We had our wedding here last year, the venue was absolutely stunning. (We got such great pictures) Kathy went above and beyond what I expected, when I realized I underestimated my decorations she pulled some out from their stash and helped decorate.

Getting married at The Farmhouse Retreat

The Farmhouse Retreat comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.

Corporate events & private parties at The Farmhouse Retreat

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at The Farmhouse Retreat — barn venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
