An absolutely gorgeous venue. Super nice staff, amazing horses and donkeys. I hope to Dj more events there.

★★★★★ — Doug, May 2023

I have loved this venue for a long time. Nestled into beautiful rolling hills, this is a stunning place for a plethora of uses. I haven't been horse back riding here, but I have been in the stables multiple times for craft fairs, running events, and for the weddings hosted here. It's always stunning.

★★★★★ — Alex, Mar 2020

Fun place for kids to see horses and other animals. Nicely maintained, just walk up and your around. Nice hiking trails nearby

Getting married at The Stables at Russell Crossroads

The Stables at Russell Crossroads comes up for weddings, going by their listing and couples’ reviews. 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.
