★★★★★ — Lindsey, Oct 2025

Attended a wedding here in September. Perfect weather contributed to the perfect location. The ceremony took place on a peninsula meaning we were surrounded by water and the colors of Fall on the mountains. The Barn was spacious with good lighting and a great dance floor.

★★★★★ — Michael, Oct 2025

Just had a wedding here, (bridesmaid here!) HIGHLY recommend this place. It was a BEAUTIFUL property with a splendid area for the bridal party to get ready. There was more than enough space for the kiddos to run around with an area on the water to fish from.

★★★★★ — Alana, Jul 2022

Getting married at The Knoll Barn on Derby Pond

The Knoll Barn on Derby Pond 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.
