“Seriously the BEST kept secret in Ponte Vedra! I've lived here all of my life and never knew they existed, will definitely be back to one of the hands down COOLEST animal sanctuaries I've ever been to! Cannot wait to book another event here!! If you get the chance, GO!!”
“Nocatee always does things right, and they did it again. Last weekend Nocatee hosted Chris Janson at our Nocatee pavilion. Chris put on a great show and the venue was perfect. Events like these remind me of how lucky I am to live here.”
“Beautiful clubhouse and fantastic golf course. We played the Stadium course. An amazing experience!
The shop is one of the best fitted out pro shops I've ever seen. That's probably to be expected though! It is expensive!
Food - Breakfast was nice. Eggs benedict was good. Chocolate pancakes were huge and really good.
Dinner - steak was cooked perfectly and all the food was top notch. Desert the brownie type desert was out of this world good.
Overall great place!”
“As an interfaith wedding rabbi and officiant, I have had the privilege of celebrating weddings in many beautiful settings, and Crosswater Hall is one of those venues that immediately captures the relaxed elegance of Florida's coastal lifestyle.
Situated along the Intracoastal Waterway, Crosswater Hall offers stunning waterfront views that serve as a natural backdrop for every part of the wedding day. The venue's expansive windows, outdoor terraces, and covered veranda ensure that guests remain connected to the beauty of the surrounding landscape whether they are attending a ceremony, enjoying cocktail hour, or celebrating on the dance floor.
What I especially appreciate is the seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. The venue feels bright, open, and welcoming, allowing couples to take full advantage of the Florida setting while still providing the comfort and flexibility of a modern event space. The result is a celebration that feels both sophisticated and effortlessly relaxed.
From a ceremony standpoint, there is something timeless about gathering family and friends beside the water to witness the beginning of a new chapter. The peaceful views and natural surroundings create a sense of calm and significance that enhances the moment without overwhelming it. Crosswater Hall provides a setting where the focus remains exactly where it belongs: on the couple and the commitment they are making to one another.
I also appreciate the versatility of the venue. Whether a couple envisions an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, Crosswater Hall provides a beautiful canvas that can be adapted to a wide variety of wedding styles while maintaining its distinctive waterfront character.
For couples seeking a venue that combines beautiful water views, contemporary design, and the relaxed sophistication of Northeast Florida, I am delighted to recommend Crosswater Hall.”
“What an amazing venue! We used it for a fundraiser and couldn’t have been more pleased. The owner is very helpful and accommodating, and the property is perfect for a casual yet upscale vibe . Highly recommend!”
“The Yards was absolutely perfect for my mom’s Celebration of Life. From the beginning, Abigail was incredibly kind, responsive, flexible, and easy to work with, and on the day of the event Caroline and the entire team made everything feel seamless. The Greenhouse was beautiful, comfortable, and somehow managed to hold a room full of people, food, flowers, games, a slideshow, a collaborative painting, two Ping-Pong tables, laughter, kids running around, and a whole lot of love without ever feeling chaotic. The setup was exactly what we needed, the staff was helpful without hovering, and every logistical detail was handled with so much care.
Most importantly, the space allowed us to have the kind of Celebration of Life my mom actually wanted: not formal or somber, but joyful, colorful, playful, full of stories, food, music, games, and people she loved. It felt much more like a really wonderful party than a memorial, which was exactly the point.
I’m so grateful to The Yards for helping us create a day that our family will remember forever. Truly could not recommend them more highly.”
“This was so much fun!! I took my granddaughter today and we had the best time! Callum was helping us and he was so nice! It was a lot of fun! They gave us the protective gear and turned on the music and we had so much fun flinging paint at the canvas and each other.
Definitely recommend!!
Also they have wine and craft beer!”
