From the reviews
The Lodge at Mount Ida was our first choice for our December 1, 2018 wedding before we even visited, and we are so happy we got married there. Tracy was absolutely incredible and so accommodating.
Beautiful venue! Unlike many venues in the area, this one is far away from the highway on its own reserve, away from it all. I’ve had the pleasure of being here several times in the last few years and the views, staff, and building is all top notch.
Stunning and beautiful are the two words that come to mind. Went here for a friend's wedding and couldn't have been happier. The ground and the facilities we both immaculate.
What a beautiful wedding venue! I absolutely loved photographing here. The day started with my clients and the entire wedding party getting ready nearby at Aventador Manor. There was plenty of room for everyone, the space was gorgeous, and there was even a pool table and ping pong down in the basement.
Getting married at The Lodge at Mount Ida Farm
The Lodge at Mount Ida Farm 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.
