Awarded Best of Zola
Big Rock Creek has been our go-to wedding venue for years, and we've always been impressed with their level of service and attention to detail. They are very prompt in their communication, which is so important when planning a wedding. The amount of space they offer is truly remarkable - you can host an intimate gathering or a grand celebration of up to 500 guests, all on the same beautiful property. It's so convenient to have everything in one place, from the ceremony site to the reception area to the on-site camping accommodations. We've been with the Big Rock crew since they first opened, and it's been amazing to see how they've grown and evolved over the years. Every time we visit, it just keeps getting better and better. If you're looking for a versatile, well-run wedding venue, we highly recommend Big Rock Creek.
