Reviews

  • The Chateau exceeded all of our expectations. We hired the venue to host our Wedding Celebrations in September 2024. The venue and the wedding day was absolutely beautiful, the décor was sublime, and above and beyond what we had envisioned.
    The owners were so attentive, going above and beyond to ensure things went smoothly. We're so very grateful for their hard work and dedication to not only making a superb venue but for ensuring the Chateau has a future and life within it for generations to come.

    We highly recommend the chateau to anyone looking for a beautiful and unforgettable setting for a magical event.
