We have been up to Adaumont Farm over and over again for private events, weddings, and other gatherings. The consistency of how well things are run is exceptional. On site crews including planners, building managers, all the way down to the groundskeepers all have the same vision - to make sure everybody's experience is incredible. It's hard to run a venue. It's really hard to run a venue well. It's almost unheard of to have a venue run extremely well consistently, week after week. This is the diamond standard for us!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.
