We had a mini-family reunion after Thanksgiving. While the weather did not cooperate, we still had a great time! The cottages were nice and warm and owner was great!

Everything was great start to finish. The Ryal's are so friendly and accomodating. The property is beautiful and the amentites are so unique and cared for that it feels like a truly personal experience. The cost of the venue was reasonable compared to other rustic barn venues, but you would never guess that by looking at it - the owners know what a special gem they have and that every bride, regardless of budget, deserves a beautiful experience on her big day.

We are so happy we chose to get married at Mellon Acres, it is a great venue run by wonderful folks. The Ryals were amazing to work with, responsive along the way to any questions we had, Susan helped with decor planning, we were able to access the reception hall for setup the day before the wedding (which was awesome) and they helped with getting everything set up how we wanted, we were able to use the sound system for our reception playlist, they served out our buffet dinner and staffed the bar (and the whole family is so friendly!!). Susan and Paul were just plain helpful the whole wedding weekend! We also rented the cabins all weekend for our wedding parties and had other family that brought RVs, and we were happy to be able to have everyone together all weekend. The wedding was as stress-free as we could have hoped. The venue was beautiful, we loved the landscaping (especially the willow trees, flowers, and waterfall) and with the pond the whole setting was perfect for our rehearsal, ceremony, and reception. We got so many compliments from friends and family, everyone enjoyed the outdoor spaces,, and we can't wait to see how all the photos turn out!!

We were not only guests, but vendors also at an event for Lawson's Alumni Association's All-Alumni Reunion this past weekend. We rented a cabin and it was gorgeous. It was much more spacious than I thought it would be and very comfortable with everything we needed! Susan was very helpful during the rental process and answered all questions, and returned messages very quickly. Our cabin had a pretty view of the lake and there was a giant willow that we all sat under.As vendors with a photo booth, we had great access loading and unloading equipment, they were super helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed. The venue is gorgeous and the grounds are spacious and well manicured.We would recommend Mellon Acres for any type of event, or even just to get away and stay in the cabins or camping area.Thank you, Paul and Susan for the hospitality!

We are so happy that we got married at Mellon Acres! This venue is stunning and was perfect for what we wanted. The Rustic Barn is seriously beautiful, guests complimented the venue space the entire night. If you’re looking for a quaint little spot to tie the knot, this is it. It’s already beautifully decorated with its own little charm! Paul and Susan are wonderful, responsive, and so helpful. Anytime we needed anything, they were there in minutes to help out. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

My husband and I just had our vow renewal for our 13th Anniversary at Mellon Acres yesterday; we have worked with Susan and Paul for a year now and I don't enough words to convey how special these people and their family are. The venue was perfect and beautiful. The cabins were all absolutely adorable!! Our family who stayed in them had nothing but great things to say. Our guests loved the layout of the entire property and the Red Barn is everything we could have hoped for and so much more. Susan and Paul were incredible to work with. Every aspect of their service is impeccable; communication and suggestions came readily and quickly. I cannot recommend them enough and as Susan knows, I can go on and on and on. Thank you both and your family for working so hard for us. Our day was perfect, and it was in no small part because of all of you.

Not only is an absolutely beautiful place to have your wedding, but the owners were such a delight to work with! They were up front with all costs and what I really loved was that Susan really stepped up with decor! Overall, you get your moneys worth! I highly recommend!

10/10 RECOMMEND!! From within a four hour response time to my inquiry about this venue, down to leaving the reception and closing up, the owners (Paul and Susan) were exceptional with accomodations, requests, assistance, charm, and more!! Cannot say enough about this beautiful venue, it was perfect my daughter's wedding❤ Thank you so much for making this special day less stressful for all, because of your overall guidance, decor and assistance:)
