Where do we park?

Heritage Hill does have a parking lot but... it is relatively small. Luckily there is parking available on the surrounding streets!
Question
I can't walk down or up the entrance hill... what can I do?
Answer
It is a pretty steep hill to come down, but don't worry! We have rented a golf cart to assist in bringing people down and up!
Question
Can I smoke?
Answer
Our wedding is outdoors, but the answer is a big no. Heritage Hill is full of beautiful historic buildings and with them being old - they are irreplaceable. They have a strict policy that no one can smoke on the grounds anywhere. If you want to smoke you have to go up to the parking lot.
