About this venue

Through the years we have had the privilege of being a part of beautiful Christmas Memories and have been honored to play a small role in your Weddings, Receptions, & Family Celebrations for over 40 years! The Lodge and Grounds of Williams Tree Farm have come a long way from their original state. We have completely remodeled our building making a log cabin front with a post and beam interior. Almost all of the wood in the building was grown and harvested from our older trees, which makes our Lodge very unique. A beautiful Field Stone Fire place greets you as you walk in. Homemade wooden top tables, field picked grapevine with lights, onsite parking, patio area for lawn games and natural trails throughout the grounds provide you with the perfect private celebration. We are located approximately 12 minutes from Beloit, WI, 25 minutes from Rockford, IL . Both of these amazing Cities have lots of options for your guest to be entertained and accommodations to stay!

    11/10 For Ellie and her staff they were super easy to work with. They helped us along with our questions and concerns for our Dream wedding. Super accommodating to our vision and needs very helpful during the set up process before, during and after our wedding. The venue was amazing there is not one thing we would change about our experience with them. Don't plan on needing another wedding venue but we'll be back for our 25th anniversary!!!

    Truly the BEST! So wonderful to work with, we really could not have asked for better! They made the wedding planning and processes so easy, and kept everything super organized. Easy to get a hold of, super down to earth, and family oriented... we were all so impressed and extremely thankful for everything Williams Tree Farm did to make our wedding a dream come true! I really could not recommend them more!!
