“This is a great little local theater where we went to see two people covering Taylor Swift songs. The performers were Berkeley graduates and they performed for about an hour and were playing both a fiddle and an acoustic guitar. There was a concession stand and plenty of people to help you find your seats. We would definitely go back to see something performed here again!”

“We just got married at Steeple Hall, and had the most magical wedding! Nik and his team at Mission Oak were so attentive to details, guests, and us the bride and groom. The food was incredible, and our guests agreed!”

“We spent 2 nights and loved our experience. The attention to detail with the hot chocolate bar and the coffee and tea selection made it special. Nice continetal breakfast. We loved having a fireplace in our room. Dinner at the Grove was excellent. The staff was very kind and we will be back soon!”

“Earlier this week I was lucky enough to be able to host a fundraiser at "The Barn" at Bradstreet Farm!! From beginning to end, the event and planning process was nothing short of amazing!! Leading up to the event, the owner Michelle, was in contact consistently. She kept us on task, was able to answer any questions we had, and had great suggestions we hadn't considered prior.The night of the event couldn't have run any smoother.... We arrived at the venue, and they pretty much took care of everything for us!! I can honestly say, this was the first time in all of my years organizing fundraisers (I have organized a lot of events/fundraisers) that I have had not one single worry!! I was actually able to network and enjoy myself!! The staff was friendly, organized, punctual - going above and beyond to not only do their jobs, but also help us set up, tear down, etc. Anything we needed help with, any questions we had - they had an answer/solution!! We absolutely loved the staff there and cannot say enough good about them. They were really just a lot of fun to work with!!Not to mention, the venue is absolutely STUNNING. There are not words to describe the feel of the grounds and one of the biggest, most beautiful barns I've had the pleasure of seeing. The layout/entrance, the antiques on display, the tables and lanterns, and all of that beautiful wood!! Whether "The Barn" is empty or full - and done up for an event, it has the most "classy - country" feel, while also being so warm, cozy, and inviting.... Every inch of the place is unbelievably beautiful!!I highly, HIGHLY recommend "The Barn" at Bradstreet Farm if you are looking for a venue to host your event at. Whether it's a wedding, corporate party, or fundraiser like ours - you will have everyone talking as "The Barn" is just that amazing!! A great husband and wife team, great staff, great service, and great venue!! You seriously couldn't ask for more!! They are just THAT good...”

“We initially picked Groveland Fairways because it's a BEAUTIFUL venue, they do one event per day, and they have great indoor/outdoor spaces for guests to be able to spread out and relax. The venue itself is charming with beautiful flowers, lush greenery, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, and plenty of space inside as well.

I had my wedding reception this past Saturday at Groveland Fairways, and it was an absolutely PERFECT day. I could not possibly give higher praise to the Groveland Fairways staff--they are incredibly kind, supportive, and lead you through the whole entire process.

When I originally booked Groveland, it was with the previous owner. I was notified after I signed the contract that the venue was being bought by Wedgewood and at first I was a little nervous. I had no need to be. Not only did they honor every aspect of my original contract, but they also proactively reached out to make sure I felt comfortable and clear on the transition.

I worked with both Nicole and Julia throughout the rest of the planning process. They walked me through every step of planning the wedding and truly helped my unique vision come to life. They were patient with me when I changed my mind or asked questions, they were supportive and encouraging with my ideas, and made sure that I thought through everything that I needed.

On Saturday, Nicole (my day of coordinator) set up everything exactly as I had hoped and helped the whole entire event flow smoothly. By the time I got to the reception, I didn't need to worry about anything else, because we were completely taken care of. Our guests had the absolute BEST time and commented on how smoothly everything went. Nicole was so attentive to anything we needed and made sure that my husband and I (and our party) had appetizers and drinks and were supported as the event got started. They helped us with anything we needed throughout the event, which was not much, because everything had been planned and organized so perfectly.

At the end of the night, they packed everything back up into our labeled boxes and on a cart so that we could get everything into the car quickly and efficiently and in an organized way, which was SO appreciated.

Weddings can be so challenging because you've never really planned one before. You're planning an event, but it's also an emotional and special day and you hope everything goes perfectly. With Nicole and Julia on my side, I felt at ease through the whole process and then the reception went as perfectly as I could have ever hoped for. I am so grateful to the Wedgewood/Groveland Fairways staff. My husband and I, as well as all our guests, had an incredible evening and were able to enjoy every minute of it thanks to the care and attentiveness of the staff and all the great vendors.”

“Been a loyal customer for years, love all their offerings. The assortment of balsamic vinegars is a staple in our home along with the spices. Friendly and inviting as a business that appreciates their customers. Thank you!”

“Easy, friendly, and checking in was a breeze. The Victoria Room #7 has everything you need for a comfortable night. Controllable AC/heat, hot spacious shower, and quiet peaceful night. The beach is a one minute drive.”

“I truly can’t say enough amazing things about this venue. My husband and I got married here September 30th 2023 and it was ABSOLUTELY beautiful!!! I seriously have not stopped getting so many compliments that this was the best wedding my guests have been to. It is so beautiful and relaxed. Beautiful outdoor space for ceremony, fire pit, big tent with tons of room. We had the funniest moment during our ceremony a cow decided to join us in our I DOS and she had a lot to say!! Calling her baby over as well ? every single guest was laughing and crying at the same time. It was truly something you couldn’t even plan - like out of a hallmark movie! The owners … AMAZING!!! There was never a time they weren’t there to answer all my questions and make my day exactly how I wanted it. Stacie the owner she is an angel and amazing to work with. Truly Stacie thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you are looking for a beautiful farm to get married on with true charm this is it!!! Meadow at red ridge farm will always be a special place to us. THANK YOU!!! ❤️❤️❤️??”

“A huge thank you to Amanda, Bonnie, and the rest team at the Blue Ocean Event Center, for making our day so special. Many of our guests have commented on how spectacular the venue was. The service and food were outstanding! Very happy with our choice to host our wedding at this beautiful location. Thank you!”

“Love a selection and the old ski ball machines are fantastic! Pinball was also fantastic although I will say one of them had a flipper getting stuck, but all of them play music loud enough for you to hear which is really something! Definitely will return”

“We had an amazing time at Crane Estate on the morning of 10/10/24. The butler, Mr Andrews and the house staff were an absolute delight! They were so accommodating and made our tour special and informative. The house and grounds deserve some time to roam and explore to get the full effect. I highly recommend taking the time to visit and look forward to the next opportunity to go back.”

“Nostalgic and Fun: 115 Year Old Carousel?Preserved inside a Pavilion near Salisbury Beach, the Carousel is a hand painted antique. truly a work of art: Look closely at the tails. ?Many of the Carousel horses have names and have been "adopted" by local families and businesses.?The Carousel *Does* Work! And is only $2 per ride.”

“Every barn has a unique atmosphere to take into consideration. It's important for a rider to consider just how they wish to partake in the equestrian world. Hunters Haven offers multidisciplinary opportunities to riders of all ages and abilities while maintaining a professional, yet pleasant and laid back, environment. Having been involved in the equine world for over 30 years, I've found it difficult to find a barn that allows for rider growth, provides never ending support of both horse and rider, and maintains it's property to ensure safety at all times (related to both landscape & rider protocol). Hunters Haven is that gem of a barn, and I'm thrilled to be a part of the HHF community as a part of the lesson program and as a boarding member. As it happens, life is full of unexpected events. While many barn management teams I've known in the past have had a difficult time grappling with the ups & downs of eq, Hunters Haven has proven they address concerns immediately, and with level headedness that allows for mitigating any future qualms related to said incident(s). Cheers!”

“This was a great time for adults & 2 kids aged 6 & 7. They have candle pin & big ball bowling. They have Ax throwing on certain nights. There is a bar that offers regular & specialty drinks. The food is made in-house also & was surprisingly delicious for this type of establishment.”
