Venues & Event Spaces near Devens, MA

“I attend a conference here every year and it’s always well run efficient and clean. The bathrooms are large and well maintained. The food is always fresh and delicious. They usually have a sandwich, selection and slaw. This is the first time they ever ran out of slaw, I think word is getting out about how good it is. I’ll get in line to try to get”

“A beautiful barn venue. Went here for a wedding and was very pleased. The greenery views and the barn itself are so beautiful. The staff was very courteous and pleasant. If you go for an event and have the food option of beef, get it if you are a meat eater! It was one of the best pieces of steak I have ever had. It was moist and flavourful, and it came from their own barn raised cows. They give you a very large, filling portion.”

“We are just coming down from the high of our daughter and her newly-wedded wife’s wedding weekend hosted at the Chocksett Inn in Sterling, MA, and let me just say - WOW!

Our daughter and her fiancé got engaged in December of 2022. We started thinking about wedding venues soon thereafter. The girls had specific criteria for a venue: lodging, getting ready, outdoor ceremony and reception all onsite but not a hotel; not a barn setting; only hosting one wedding per day; and within 1 hour driving distance for most guests. We went onto Wedding Wire and the Knot and entered our criteria, and the Chocksett Inn popped up. Having lived in Central Mass for a period, we were surprised we had never heard of it. Made an appointment to visit in January of 2023, and we met with the sales/function coordinator, Tianna, for a tour. My daughter bursting into tears the second she walked into the foyer of the ballroom, and stating “It’s so beautiful,” was all I needed to see! Give me the contract to sign! We were sold right then and there! We never had to look at another venue – this was the easiest decision in the entire wedding planning process!

Fast forward almost two years to their wedding weekend, (and 2 wedding tastings, and multiple personal repeat tours) and I just can’t say enough accolades about the Chocksett Inn! Warm and welcoming front desk at check-in; clean, comfortable, large and updated guest rooms including 2 bridal suites to choose from along with a getting ready conference room and separate sitting room; delicious onsite restaurant for dinner and after party; GORGEOUS foyer for cocktail hour, and spacious ballroom for reception dinner and dancing (with amazing food!), and beautifully landscaped grounds and garden gazebo to host the ceremony and make the perfect backdrop for photos! And while every staff member we interacted with was amazing (shout out to Mick and Paula, two of our bartenders), Tianna knocked it out of the park. She truly is the Inn’s greatest asset – her communication, attention to detail, and day of service were nothing short of exceptional! Every detail was meticulously taken care of! Never once did we feel second to any other couple who also needed her undivided attention. We flooded her with questions right up until ceremony time, and she came through with answers/solutions/ideas each time! She assured us we didn’t need our own day of coordinator, and boy, did she deliver on that promise! We came to the Chocksett Inn as strangers and left with a new family! Chocksett will forever be one of our happy places! We are so sad it’s over!

Rooms: Rooms are spacious, clean, and most come with a kitchenette.

Food and drinks: Wedding meal was delicious and restaurant food at at the Cellar Grille was amazing and quite the value in price!”
