Welcome to Our Backyard!

We found this spot just above the river, where the meadow opened wide, and we knew it was something special! Tucked beneath the trees and surrounded by nature, it felt open, serene, peaceful - the kind of place where people naturally come together, where memories take root and linger long after the day is done. We built our home here and began making those memories with our own family and friends - and before long, with their families and friends, too! What started as personal gatherings overlooking the beautiful Hiwassee River turned into something bigger - ceremonies, celebrations, and our dream of sharing our space with others! From that dream, our open-air venue was born - right here in our backyard!

Rooted in the beauty of the land and inspired by the joy of togetherness, our venue is truly an extension of our home. It’s a place designed for celebration, connection, and the kind of moments that feel both grounded and unforgettable - where laughter echoes, glasses clink, and memories take root! Every detail was chosen to honor the natural surroundings, while offering comfort, warmth, and a sense of welcome to all who gather here. Our open-air venue is nestled just above the Hiwassee River, enveloped by the surrounding wilderness, and joined by an eleven-acre meadow. Our modern rustic venue boasts towering fireplaces, grand vaulted ceilings, and a full-length covered deck overlooking the river.

Whether you're planning a wedding, a family reunion, or a corporate retreat, our venue promises an experience that is both unique and unforgettable. Embrace the beauty of nature and celebrate your special moments in a setting that feels just like home!
