Firefly Acres was the perfect venue for a wedding I attended for a family member that was getting married. The owners were responsive and incredibly friendly in their communication leading up to the big day. The views around the property were really cool with lots of wildlife to see - horses, chickens, deer, turkey etc.. The grounds were immaculately maintained. The hosts were awesome - very easy-going and laid-back folks who made us feel right at home. This venue offers incredible value, with a beautiful, private setting that is still very convenient and easy to access. The on-site cabin we stayed in for the wedding was spotless and beautifully decorated in a vintage fishing theme. I highly recommend Firefly Acres for anyone looking for an amazing wedding experience or just a quiet and peaceful weekend getaway!

It’s been a year since we got married at The Pick Inn and never once do we reflect and regret anything! Amanda and her awesome staff did an amazing job. They placed everything so perfectly from the chairs and pergola arrangements and all the odds and ends I brought. They made the day run smoothly, I actually noticed zero wedding day hiccups. So kuddos to the team if there were any. We could not have had the wedding we did without Amanda, their vendor recommendations, and the beautiful venue itself! People still talk to me about how beautiful the venue was a year later. It is truly so dreamy and peaceful. Amanda was always available for questions that we had, which was super helpful as an anxious bride to be! My husband and I are so thankful that we found The Pick Inn and if we were able, we would do it all again (but only at The Pick Inn). :)
