Communication with Danna was incredible from start to finish. She always responded quickly, answered all of our questions, and was so helpful throughout the entire planning process. The space itself is stunning—the wooded area with the lake backdrop was the perfect setting for our ceremony. One of the things that made our experience extra special was having our wedding party stay in the cabins for the entire weekend. Everything was set up and ready for our guests, and we were able to use all the kitchenware and amenities, which made hosting so easy. Having access to the entire property truly set Klondike Cabins apart, especially since so many venues don’t offer that—let alone at such a great price. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to celebrate at Klondike Cabins. The beauty of the grounds combined with the time spent surrounded by our closest friends and family made it all unforgettable.

About 8 years ago, I had just joined Rock Barn Country Club & Spa. My sister asked me to "do" her wedding for her. The search for the venue was painful! Every place we visited charged thousands for the venue BEFORE we had ordered any food, beverage or decorations. Plus, we needed a small space - only 25 guests! Rock Barn was different. We did not pay for the space, only the food and beverage, taxes and gratuity. We even had a bar with a qualified bartender! I met with the team at RB and we had everything planned out in just a few minutes. I did my own decorations - because that is what I do - the ceremony, dinner reception, and pictures by the waterfall and covered bridge for 25 people was less than 2400 all in! I knew what a wonderful value this was for the bride and groom as they were on a budget. Since then, I am now the events coordinator at Rock Barn and I love every minute of what I do. I enjoy working with brides and grooms who are on that budget and need the spend to make sense! Let me help you too.
