From the reviews
We had a Wedding Reception here last weekend, and the facility and property was PERFECT for the occasion! It was the perfect spot for 130 guests to celebrate! The scenery provided the perfect backdrop for pictures. The staff was very accommodating and helped make the day perfect.
Had a large yard for outdoor weddings, but it was raining harder as my cousin's wedding day progressed. The barn is nice and rustic looking....it has the North Carolina Appalachian town character. It was a nice venue.
Great place to have a wedding reception! Clean and modern bathrooms and kitchen facilities. Plenty of parking. Tell them Lord Frederick George Fluchel III of Galloway sent you.
Beautiful & charming retreat or gathering venue. On site church, lodging at vintage country inn & cottages, buffet country dining, waterfalls, hiking trails & lovely outdoor spaces. (See photos of creekside below the barn after a November rainstorm). Off major highways in NC, 2 lane mountain country road access.
Getting married at Valle Crucis Apple Barn
Valle Crucis Apple Barn 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.
