The Arbor House

The Arbor House is moody yet refined, holding a quiet gravity with steeped wood walls offset by bright white walls on the northwest side. Grand chandeliers cast a golden glow across antique tables and worn leather chairs, while at its heart stands an enchanted tree whose branches stretch into the rafters where flowers are woven overhead, creating a living canopy that shifts with the seasons. Along the windows, vignettes of antique settees and side tables invite guests to linger, offering intimate corners for conversation and pause. If you’ve stepped into our Shoppe, then you already know The Arbor House. The same attention to detail, atmosphere, and artistry you’ve felt there now extends into a space designed to hold your gathering. We have carefully cleared the way for events to take place here, yet the style and ambiance remain intact, carrying forward the character that has made this house beloved for years.

For years, guests have asked when this space might open for events. At last, this is the first year The Arbor House welcomes you in. Imagine guests arriving at twilight, pausing on the wide front porch before stepping into a room where the white and wood walls glow in golden light. Chandeliers sparkle overhead while flowers spill from the branches above, and antique tables are set for dinner. Conversation gathers in the window vignettes, then the music builds and guests drift to the dance floor. As the evening stretches on, the doors open to Rosewood, the adjoining outdoor space where bistro lights sway above, tables and swings invite lingering, and the air feels alive with celebration.

Where The Garden House is brightness and ease, The Arbor House is its more bespoke counterpart, designed for gatherings rich in depth and atmosphere. The two can also be paired together: host a ceremony in the Garden House surrounded by florals and light, then move into The Arbor House for dinner, conversation, and dancing. This combination creates a full flow of experience from day into night.

The Arbor House can seat up to 100 guests at antique tables and chairs, with room left open for dancing when the night calls for it. For strolling-style receptions, the space can host up to 300. And with heating and AC, it remains welcoming in every season. While weddings are a natural fit, the space also lends itself beautifully to milestone celebrations, seasonal dinners, retreats, concerts, and private parties that deserve to be held in a place of atmosphere and memory.

It is, in many ways, like the uncle who arrives in a tailored jacket with a sly grin. The one who tells the best stories, pours the good whiskey, and knows how to make an evening stretch long past midnight.

What to Expect in the Space:
The room will be set with seasonal branches in the tree, florals filling the rafters, artwork on the walls, the grandfather clock, and Gary the deer mounted in place. Velvet curtains will remain, along with antique couches, tables, rustic shelving, chandeliers, and lighting. The coolers and fridges will be covered but available for use, and the front porch is included.

What will be cleared out are our products and fresh food, leaving you with an open, spacious setting ready for your own decorations and vision.

Prim, Our Little White Cottage

At the entrance stands Prim, our beloved one-room white cottage. It can serve as a private dressing room for a bride or groom, a quiet retreat for family or guests, or a preparation space tucked away from the main event. Some hosts use it as a staging area for catering, others as a cozy lounge, or even as a creative backdrop for photographs. With its simple charm and adaptability, Prim offers a thoughtful extension to your gathering—an intimate space that becomes whatever you need it to be.

Or, for a more immersive stay, include The Moon House, our bed and breakfast, which offers an overnight element and a private retreat within steps of your event.

Available January through August.
