Our team & Services
A dream come true
“We had this dream of combining our love for the Catskills and our home into a majestic and distinct gathering place. We merged the lush beauty of our grounds with bold, inviting event spaces. We scraped, built, planted, and nurtured, forming a talented team that provides genuinely friendly service and great food. And as we have progressed from our first celebrations over fourteen years ago to the unique venue it has become, our dream has come true.”
hosting events is teamwork
One of our secret powers is our amazing staff
Any event we host, whether large or small, is in excellent hands. Our incredible (15+ person) team of coordinator, executive chef, pastry chef, and kitchen team, along with a front-of-house manager and our dedicated service team of bartenders, servers, drivers, and organizers, are at the heart of our successful events.
Their teamwork, commitment, and genuine kindness create truly memorable experiences.
Our team ensures that your day flows naturally while flawlessly executing everything we’ve planned.
good food & good times
our culinary team
Executive chef Leah Detreville, pastry chef Kristina Ugenti, and the rest of our culinary team create menus with a passion for delicious, beautiful and sustainably grown food.
Creating your menu will be a collaboration between you and our chef. Planning your menu will involve conversations about your favorite foods and getting to know your personality and style. Couples are invited to an extensive tasting before a final menu selection.
