The Pump House
Established in 1876, our fully restored modern solar-powered event space was once a historic oil pumping station. Our first Brick building has eight-foot windows filling the space with natural light, soaring ceiling heights, bolted steel beams, and vast open space to accommodate 170 of your family and friends. The brick Studio Hall is a lovely space adorned with owner Doug’s artwork and eclectic style with tall ceilings and windows for views into the garden, perfect for receptions like micro weddings, and showers, accommodating 75 guests. People can also hang out on our open patio and enjoy its creekside fire pit. The ceremony area is just a short walk to a chapel in the woods, with astounding beautiful creek views that make for the perfect spiritual retreat or an intimate gathering in nature.

Lawn and garden equipment with three electric vehicle charging stations run off our panels.
