Choosing Montfair as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process! The property is naturally stunning; we barely decorated, and we received numerous compliments from our guests about how gorgeous and serene it was.Having our closest friends and our dog stay on-site with us added an extra layer of joy to the whole experience. Our guests had a great time swimming, canoeing, biking, hiking, and playing yard games over the course of the weekend.The staff was delightful to work with, especially Victoria. She promptly answered all of our questions and was patient and helpful when we encountered issues during the planning process. Our guest list was on the larger side and the staff handled it with ease. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to make our weekend perfect.

My daughter had her wedding at Montfair in July 2023. We looked at other outdoor venues but hands down this was the place that my daughter and her fiancé knew was the right place to host their wedding. From the moment we drove past the ceremony field with the mountain view, she knew this was it. They wanted a venue that would allow them to have family and friends stay on site, and they wanted a beautiful but relaxed setting that had the quintessential Virginia mountain views. Montfair was perfect. In addition to the park like setting, there is a lodge with a large tented deck that can be used as a back up for bad weather. Luckily we had perfect weather, typical hot summer, but the natural beauty of the setting and the relaxed and fun atmosphere was all we needed. Victoria was extremely helpful in vendor selection, and how to manage a wedding weekend. She was always available to answer questions and give us advice. The groundskeepers made sure the grounds were ready for our weekend, going the extra mile. Everyone was kind and helpful.My daughter's vision for the wedding was \"rustic elegance\" with a relaxed and fun filled weekend with family and friends. Montfair delivered on it all. If you are considering an outdoor wedding give Montfair a look. You won't be disappointed.

Montfair was the PERFECT location for our wedding! After doing some research online, this was the only venue we scheduled to tour, and I told my fiance if the property looked as nice in person as the pictures, this was where I wanted our wedding to be, but if we didn't like it we could elope. As soon as we drove up the driveway, I started crying because it was even more beautiful than the pictures. From the gorgeous mountain scenery, the amazing deck and reception lodge, the adorable cabins around the peaceful lake, and the walking trails, it had all the things we wanted and more...we were sold! We chose the \"wedding weekend package,\" so we had our rehearsal dinner and welcome party at the lodge the night before the wedding, and many of our friends and family were able to stay on the property with us. They even have space for tent and RV camping, so some of our guests camped as well! The staff was so helpful throughout the whole planning and preparation process, and we loved that they were open to any vendors we wanted to hire, so we were able to plan a celebration that was uniquely \"us.\" We ended up with less than ideal weather conditions, between rain all Friday night and Saturday morning, followed by high speed wind gusts Saturday night, but we lucked out with sunny skies for the ceremony and pictures! The wind kept us all nice and cool for dancing on the deck during the reception, and we still got plenty of compliments from our guests about the dreamy mountain setting. Thank you Montfair for making our wedding weekend absolutely magical!

Hosted our wedding in April 2023 at Montfair and it was incredible. From the start of selecting Montfair as our venue we loved the mixture of spaces and views that it offered to us. When it all came to life and our guests got to experience what we had been planning and be part of all the different spaces it was just magical. It offers the classic Charlottesville views with the blue ridge mountains in the background, the green pastures, and fence lines, and then feelings of nature under the trees, the lake, and the deck space and lodge were excellent for having indoor and outdoor offerings. It was the perfect mix of spaces and a relaxed outdoor vibe that we were going for. Our guests were wowed by it all. We booked the entire weekend so we had events Friday and Saturday, our friends stayed in all of the cabins, and we stayed in the main Beauchamp House with our dog. It was all perfect and highly recommend booking the full weekend if you can - for the price and value it's unbeatable. Other venues we considered would have been the same price for just 8 hours on Saturday that we paid for the entire weekend. Working with Victoria and the Montfair team was fantastic, we got lots of great ideas from her and they were open and accommodating to what we wanted.

The reception space had cement floors with a muddy gravel path leading to the ceremony field and no accessibility. I don’t know why anyone would choose to get married in this dumpy “resort”.

We held our May 2022 wedding at Montfair and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff is easy to get in touch with and willing to answer any and all questions. We went out to tour the space multiple times, and the Montfair staff (especially Victoria) were accommodating and willing to let us see the space as many times as we needed in order to feel confident! We rented all cabins and the venue space for the entire weekend so that our wedding party and families could stay on site with us, which was absolutely worth it and honestly very affordable for what you get! It ended up raining on the actual wedding day, but it was unclear what the weather would be; Montfair was flexible with setting up chairs and a tent a day beforehand just in case, and it was a relief to have the tent set up when it did end up raining! We got many compliments from guests on the venue space, and the casual but beautiful vibe on Montfair was exactly what we were looking for. I'd recommend Montfair as a wedding location to anyone!

The best venue!!!! My husband and I booked this venue the day after we got engaged without having ever seen it in person based on a recommendation from a trusted friend. They were initially already booked for the year, but they took a chance on us and let us have Thanksgiving weekend-- the latest wedding they've done in a given year. It was everything we could have asked for and more. We had friends coming in from all over the world, so having the cottages on site was absolutely perfect. We had the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and send-off brunch all in the same location. It was extremely convenient. The location is absolutely stunning-- the mountains provide a perfect backdrop, and there is a gorgeous lake for waterfront photos. The bridal suite is perfect for gorgeous getting-ready photos. The team at Montfair is the greatest part of all. These are the coolest, most down-to-earth folks in the wedding business, a very rare gem. We were able to choose our own vendors, and the team at Montfair was always there to answer questions from myself, my husband, our friends and families. They were always so kind and helpful. Our guests and bridal party had a blast, and so did we. It was the perfect, stress free weekend-- not a common feat in this industry! Could not recommend them more.

Our guests were wow'ed by the beauty of the property and it was so wonderful to have our wedding party stay in the Montfair cottages with us. There are so many thoughtful/unique touches (pictures in canoe, Japanese lanterns, bonfire) and the views are incredible. Montfair made sure the whole weekend went perfectly. Victoria was so incredibly helpful throughout our wedding planning process and went above and beyond to make sure we had all our questions answered. The staff at Montfair were all so helpful and kind. They made sure that the chairs/games/bonfire were all set up as we asked. Seriously, get married at this magical place! We can't wait to come back and stay in the cabins again to relive our wedding weekend!

I knew this venue was perfect from the moment I saw it online. It was such a beautiful wedding! The reception lodge was magical and the ceremony field was stunning! We booked all the cabins on site and wouldn’t have done it any other way. The bonfire was a great addition for our guests to enjoy. The only thing that caused some negativity was the staff member who was there. She made us feel rushed and kept reminding us when we needed to leave as if we weren’t aware of it. We payed to have the whole venue for 2 nights and the fire is scheduled until midnight. They reminded us about 5 times when we needed to be cleaned up and out even after we stated we understood the first time. The fire was almost out at 10 and when we asked for more wood, the person made sure we knew again we were to be gone at midnight. Then they gave us yet another warning for 30 minutes. I felt that they were treating us like children and did not appreciate being rushed out of my own wedding that we spent a lot of our hard earned money on just because they booked one the next day. I still give it 5 stars because it was absolutely perfect in all other aspects! Victoria Sours was amazing throughout the whole process and the Beauchamp House was perfect for the bridal party to get ready in. The cabins were perfect for our wedding party too! My guests were all saying it was the most fun wedding they’d ever been to!

Montfair was the second venue we toured and we knew fairly quickly that it was a great fit for us. We wanted a venue that brought in nature but wasn't fully outside, and also wasn't fully \"rustic\" (just not our vibe). Montfair fit that bill beautifully -- we loved having the option to have our ceremony in the field surrounded by the fall colors, or down by the lake. We opted for the field, but also made use of the lake space by utilizing their bonfire. Our guests also loved the venue for its beauty, space, and the bonfire too. The inside of the event lodge (where we had our reception) can be decorated in so many ways, it's a very versatile space and ended up being exactly what we were looking for. Our wedding was around 60 guests, so we had lots of options (the field, the lake, the lodge, and the large tented decks). Highly recommend this venue! (There are also on site accommodations, including a house we were able to use to get ready in. This is a huge plus for those who wish to get ready on site and who might have family coming in from out of town! It was super convenient for us!) Victoria and Lisa were very accommodating during our entire wedding planning process, and we appreciate their responsiveness and customer service!

When we first got engaged, I did some casual venue searching. I had an idea in mind - something rustic, with an unobstructed, picturesque view of the mountains. My husband and I are both from flat areas, so I knew I wanted a very \"Virginia\" vibe as the backdrop to our wedding as a homage to the state where we met and fell in love. Within minutes, I came across Montfair. I instantly knew from the little thumbnail image that popped up in the search results that this was the venue for us. As I clicked and scrolled through more pictures, reviews, and package pricing, I became more convinced. However, I thought for sure since it was my dream venue, it must be the dream venue for many others, and was hesitant to reach out in case I received disappointing news that they were fully booked. After touring alternatives and not finding a good fit, I re-searched Montfair and decided to submit an inquiry through their website. Victoria reached out to us within 48 hours with the good news that there were still some dates available in our time frame, so we got to work scheduling a viewing. From the get-go, Victoria was very flexible and pleasant to work with, and she was able to work around me and my husband's crazy work schedules to find a time that worked for us all. At the viewing, Victoria took time to review some paperwork with us and answer questions, and followed up with us 2 business days after our visit to thank us for visiting . When we decided to sign on, there were some technical difficulties with getting the e-contract to us that caused us to technically not sign within the time frame they held the dates for us, but the Montfair team was very understanding and quick to find a solution so we were still able to sign and get our ideal date. We initially signed for a one day (Saturday) wedding since there were already events the day before and after planned, but when the event on Friday cancelled, Montfair reached out to us to see if we'd be interested in reserving that day. We reserved Friday as well and are so glad we did. We got to enjoy the venue for one more day by having our rehearsal dinner there and having the wedding party and family spend the night before the wedding on-site, so that we were all together and ready to prepare the morning of the main event. The guests all loved their accommodations, with one of my bridesmaids booking her next visit as soon as we arrived. The Beauchamp House was the perfect \"getting ready\" venue, with lots of natural lighting and space. The on-site staff who was present for our wedding, Ayla, was a welcome presence, as she made sure we were all comfortable and answered any questions the guests had during their stay. All in all, Montfair was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. From planning to breaking down, the staff was willing to work to get us the best experience possible (and didn't even bat an eye when 2 of our guests fell in the lake and got a canoe stuck). I got the mountain pictures and rustic lodge feel I wanted, and the guests enjoyed their cabins and the activities available to them. We used the inside of the lodge for our reception dinner and the covered deck as our cocktail area and dance floor, but the space can be set up however the couple wants and function well. I can't wait to return here to celebrate our anniversary next year (as a bonus, couples who are married here get a discount when they book a cabin stay). I can't imagine if we had our wedding anywhere else.

Look no further - get married here! Montfair Resort Farm is the absolute dream site to get married. We just got married this past weekend and I cannot stop looking at pics. It was a stunning location, and our guests were in awe. From the moment we set foot on the property I fell in love. It is absolutely gorgeous, with sweeping views of mountains and beautiful scenery with trees and wildflowers. This is an oasis of beauty and tranquility. What we loved the most was how it had the most epic views, but had such a low-key vibe. My vision for my wedding was if Backpacker Magazine and Vogue had a baby. That’s what I wanted. Gorgeous nature setting with elegant touches. If you are into nature and the outdoors this is where you should get married. We had a stunning ceremony with the most amazing weather in August. The cocktail hour and reception was awesome outside and on a gorgeous deck that was tented with lights (this comes with the venue and they don’t charge extra!!). We had a small wedding of 50 guests and our kid guests were obsessed with the lake, hopping in the canoes and catching fish as their parents enjoyed wine from the deck watching them. We had a bonfire, and it made the whole event just feel so special. Every interaction we had with Victoria at Montfair was spectacular. She is a clear communicator, and is so genuine, authentic and friendly. She truly wanted to help us, and let our weekend be “ours.” Our close family and bridal party loved being on-site in the cabins. She let us use any vendor we wanted, helped make recommendations when we asked, and made our guests feel special. We are just blown away by this entire weekend and site. Stop looking, get married here. One last note! The first time we went to see Montfair, we had scheduled 2 other venues to look at on the same day which were wineries. We saw Montfair, met Victoria and loved it. We left and went to a local winery. As soon as we pulled in I knew I didn’t want to get married somewhere like that. It felt like a cattle call. They basically handed us a schedule of what our day-of-timeline would be and nothing was personal. As soon as we left that site we called Victoria to see if we could come back. She kindly said yes, we went back and secured our wedding date and weekend.

Victoria and the entire events team at Montfair Resort Farm are truly amazing. My husband and I were married in a very small ceremony in January 2021, but wanted to plan a belated wedding celebration with all of our family and friends for when he returned from a military deployment. We found Montfair through a Google search, as we knew we wanted to host our celebration in the greater Charlottesville area but wanted a venue that allowed outside food and beverages, as we had dreamed of having pizza and wanted to use a family connection in the beverage industry for drinks/alcohol. Montfair Resort Farm was the first and only venue we visited, not simply because of the beautiful and unique grounds (where else can you find a gorgeous ceremony field AND a cozy, rustic lodge overlooking ample grass for lawn games, as well as a calm, clear lake? Not to mention on-site accommodations for all of our HUGE wedding party of 26, plus our families!), but also because of our amazing tour with Victoria. Although Montfair does not have an official on-site wedding coordinator (they do provide day-of event supervisors), Victoria goes above and beyond; she was always available during the 15 months from booking to our event, very much functioning as a coordinator in helping me plan our special weekend. She asks the right questions at the right times in the planning process to ensure your weekend is everything you'd envisioned - and in our case, more than we'd hoped for! - because she really cares about her couples. Both of our families, as well as most of our guests, have been gushing about how awesome our wedding was, many citing the amazing venue as the best they'd ever been to (which is especially notable since our guests came from all over the country). While I am so happy to have enjoyed such a wonderful day, I am going to miss emailing and meeting with Victoria, as she is not only amazing at her job, but an amazing person. Thank you so much, Victoria & Montfair Team!

When we were imagining our wedding, we wanted to create a true weekend destination for our guests both near and far. Otherwise, the event goes by so quickly - ceremony, cocktails, reception, and off everyone goes. Thanks to the flexibility of the space and the rental packages at Montfair, we were able to build an experience - a peaceful retreat amid the bucolic Blue Ridge, with adorable cottages onsite, campfire s'mores, kickball, dance classes, craft workshops, cooking and wilderness survival lessons, a true blank slate for any of our silly ideas. And then, poof, we had the best of both worlds - a stunning backdrop for our ceremony and standard wedding dance floor throw down. Montfair's team truly care about the success of your event and offers thorough resources to guide you along the way, but the freedom to paint your own canvas when the weekend comes around. Note: if you are looking for a full service venue where an onsite team is responsible for all furniture shifts and managing guest-facing elements, this might not be a fit without a super hands-on catering partner. Our guests had a wonderful time and kept remarking what a special place this was to gather and celebrate our next adventure. Additionally, we were grateful for a variety of options for rain and wind plans.

We opted for the destination package, which gave us access to the Lodge and all the cabins for the whole weekend and it was absolutely the right choice. It was so nice to have all of our family and wedding party on-site for the entire weekend, and we were able to spend so much more time together than we would have at a more traditional venue. Victoria is the best -- she is organized, flexible, and responsive -- and the rest of the staff was incredibly helpful in making sure our vision for the weekend was achieved. As an LGBT+ wedding, we were concerned with selecting a venue that would treat us like any other couple, and every single person at Montfair showed us nothing but love. Montfair really was the perfect venue for our laid back, casual wedding weekend.

We had a smaller, intimate wedding with friends and family, and had the property to ourselves Friday through Sunday. Our wedding was everything we hoped for, and we couldn’t have dreamed up a more perfect location - every spot on the property is absolutely beautiful. The drive to the venue is also lovely and scenic (we had our guests download directions ahead of time and nobody had issues getting there).The venue itself is wonderful. We had our ceremony outdoors, with a mountain backdrop, and our reception indoors/outdoors, at the lodge. There was something for everyone. You could stay inside the lodge, move out to the deck, play lawn games, enjoy the bonfire, look out over the lake, go for a walk, or just catch your breath in your cabin. It was the perfect mix of options and activities to bring people together for an idyllic weekend, no matter the personality type. If you’re looking for a stunning, outdoorsy venue with a lot of flexibility, this is IT! Victoria worked with us before and during the event and helped make planning and preparation easy. She was calm, organized, and supportive throughout the entire process! We would highly recommend Montfair to anyone looking to get married in the Shenandoah area!!!

Montfair was an absolutely perfect venue for our Memorial Day Weekend wedding! We rented out all of the cabins for our families and close friends and hosted our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and farewell brunch on site. The staff at Montfair were amazing and accommodated all of our wishes, from working with us on multiple planning visits to setting up both outdoor and indoor fires (it was unseasonably cold for the rehearsal dinner). Victoria also kept in regular contact with us through the winter and spring as the pandemic regulations evolved. Aside from its natural beauty, what really set Montfair apart for us was the ability to have the entire venue reserved for the weekend. For the same price, if not less than, we would've spent for five hours at a local vineyard, we had all of Montfair available for our use from Saturday afternoon through Monday morning. This allowed our families to spend the entire weekend together, which made the occasion even more special.

Best. Venue. Ever. My husband and I knew this was the venue the moment we stepped out of the car to view it! It was by far the prettiest place we had ever seen and it made us feel completely at ease. It has a rustic vibe but with a hint of elegance as well! The staff were so accommodating to our visions and were very easy to work with! The best part is they allow dogs to be present during the ceremony and the reception!! So if you like us, want your faithful companion at your wedding... this is the place for you!

I can honestly say that having our wedding at Montfair was the best decision my husband and I could have made! The moment we pulled up to the property, we just knew this is where we wanted to get married. The views are absolutely breathtaking no matter where you are on the property. We rented out the venue for the entire weekend so we could enjoy it to its fullest – canoeing, swimming in the lake, hiking, sitting around the bonfire and relaxing. Montfair allows so much flexibility to plan out exactly what you have in mind for your big day. The staff, especially Victoria, went above and beyond for us throughout the planning process. My husband and I planned our wedding during COVID, and we also had a hurricane threat the weekend of our wedding. I didn’t have to stress out about any of that because Victoria made so many great recommendations to ensure my vision would still come to life, regardless of what hurdles were thrown our way. My husband and I are already planning to spend our anniversary back at Montfair, and we look forward to doing that for years to come. I would recommend Montfair to anyone couple looking to plan their perfect wedding day/weekend!

As professional photographers, we greatly enjoyed shooting a wedding at Montfair Resort Farm. The site the couple used for the ceremony provided a gorgeous spot for photos.

Montfair absolutely nailed it! It is a low-key, down-to-earth venue surrounded by nature that is rustic but still appropriate for a wedding with a beautiful backdrop, just enough amenities, and experienced, professional staff. We rented the cottages on the property for guests to stay, and used the main house as a staging area for the wedding party. Our guests enjoyed the property, from fishing to reading a book in a canoe on the lake to exploring on mountain bikes. We had a welcome bonfire at the lake on Friday night (Montfair will tend the fire for you). The venue is very customizable - for example, we had a yoga class in the lodge on the morning of the wedding, and brought in a chef of our choice. There is limited cell service which meant everyone was fully present. All in all, we couldn’t have been happier with the experience and would highly recommend Montfair to other couples! We plan to return often in the years to come and soak in all the memories.

Montfair was perfect for us. We looked for somewhere rustic, elegant, and capable of hosting the wedding party and family over a long weekend. We rented the venue and all cabins for the entire weekend. Simply put, they were fantastic to work with, accommodating in every way. The venue itself was great. People who stayed onsite loved the cabins and they were clean and well appointed. Our caterers and other event staff were able to work seamlessly with Montfair's staff. The setting and countryside was gorgeous. I wouldn't have been married anywhere else! They bent over backwards to make sure our wedding went off without a hitch but were mostly invisible. So much work went into making our event special and they managed to keep it all behind the scenes. Our only suggestion is to rent some golf carts so you can get around the property quickly. Your wedding weekend is too short to spend it walking from place to place. I would recommend Montfair to anyone. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

With the Blue Ridge Mountain backdrop, easy access to trails and the comfortable wooden lodge our guests truly enjoyed their getaway in the woods. Kids and adult guests alike loved swimming and floating around the pond. Convenient having close family and friends stay in the cabins and everyone else nearby in Charlottesville. Everything was made so easy we wish we could get married again.

We had a WONDERFUL experience at Montfair for our wedding weekend. We loved having our family and bridal party stay in the cabins and inviting guests to tent camp. The Beauchamp house was a nice place for our parents to stay and it also served as a place for wedding \"projects\" (doing flower arrangements the day before and organizing decorations) and for the bridal party to get ready. We also loved that the entire place is very dog friendly! Overall, this was the perfect setting for the kind of wedding we had in mind. It was the perfect balance between laid-back and naturey and nice. It might be important to know that cell phone service is non-existent out there. They definitely make up for it with good wifi in all cabins, but at times this made it tricky to coordinate people.

Our Montfair wedding couldn’t have been more beautiful. The mountain backdrop, the open field, and the open, wooden lodge with a big deck were exactly what we wanted. We had a smaller wedding (~70 guests) and many of our family and friends stayed in the cabins. The lodge was perfect for our rehearsal dinner and reception. Every outdoor wedding couple worries about rain, of course, but we worried a lot less knowing that the lodge deck with its lovely pond view was our rain option. The staff was friendly and helpful and we were pretty much allowed to bring in whatever vendors we wanted. We used both the fireplace and bonfire and the guests loved it. We didn't have to lift a finger to do the fire - the staff did it all. It was great value for the cost. I also love the fact that we get a discount when we rent cabins there in the future... it is such a sweet, quiet location and will be perfect for romantic anniversary getaways! Some things to be aware of - and these aren’t drawbacks, just things to know. (1) There is no cell reception, so last-minute calls to vendors or photographers or wayward guests can be a challenge. Wifi is available though. The great thing is that you can plan for an “unplugged” weekend if your people are on board with that! (2) The location, which is hilly and has a lot of gravel roads, can be a challenge for older guests or those with reduced mobility. We rented golf carts and that definitely helped.

Montfair provided us with such a perfect location for our wedding! We wanted a space that could accommodate an outdoor wedding but also have a beautiful indoor option in case of weather. It ended up raining on our wedding so we got married on the deck looking over the lake and had our reception in the lodge. It still felt like an \"outdoor\" wedding and ended up being really lovely and intimate! All of our family and friends stayed in the cabins the whole weekend which really provided a \"destination wedding\" feel even though we are local. The event planning staff was super helpful in making those last minute day-of changes as well as answering questions leading up the wedding. We love Montfair!

Victoria went above and beyond to answer our many questions before the wedding. We had a blast doing picnics, bonfires, and canoeing throughout the weekend. Even though it was 90 degrees and almost everything was outside, we would not have changed the venue for anything. Besides our friends and family, the venue made the wedding. The views are breathtaking, the lake is gorgeous, and the whole feel is one of relaxation.

Montfair was a dream come true for our venue. We wanted wedding to feel magical, like a fantasy come to life. Montfair is so naturally beautiful, surrounded by trees and mountain views. We wanted a venue all our closest friends and family could stay, so Montfair's cozy cottages were exactly what we were looking for. It was absolutely perfect. The whole venue is stunning, the place felt right the moment we entered the property. Cozy, magic, beautiful, the perfect place to have our wedding.The staff also made everything easy, they were all wonderful to work with. Katie, the event coordinator at montfair, was especially helpful and so sweet! She made planning with Montfair so easy, and fun! And our wedding was not the easiest to plan, as my mom and I were doing all the planing ourselves. We had a difficult time trying to decide how to seat our large guest list for dinner ( we had a large wedding for the venue size). Katie was so kind and absolutely patient in helping us measured things out, and everything worked perfectly for our guest list size. If you're considering montfair as your venue I strongly suggest it. The place has a feeling about it, its so full of love and magic! My husband and I can't wait to visit again.

Montfair was hands down the BEST decision we made (besides getting married of course). It is one of those unique places that takes your breath away the moment you drive up to the venue. If you're the kind of bride who is looking for a place that is heartfelt, the people are kind, and the physical space is rustic and gorgeous and completely flexible to whatever you want - vendors, etc, Montfair IS IT.My husband and I are laid back artist types and we wanted our wedding to be local (we're from Charlottesville) and focused on the bringing together of our families and unpretentious - and we knew from the beginning we wanted to do our own programming, catering (our families provided home made dishes), music (I created our entire wedding play lists start to finish and my husband brought in his own sound equipment), decorations (handmade garland, thrifted china plate settings, etc), and more importantly we wanted our dogs to be able to join us at the ceremony, and Montfair was amazing about accommodating every aspect of the DIY event. It's rare to find a wedding venue that does not restrict you with vendors, etc, and we truly appreciated how open they were to our vision. The best part about this place was the AMAZING staff!! Katie was a true GEM - she was so kind, patient, and friendly, with every step of the planning process - she answered all of our questions and did so with wonderful grace and humor. The team at Montfair made us feel super supported the entire way. The fact that we never had to worry about the venue significantly cut back on our stress during planning.I could write endlessly about how much I loved this place but the best thing you could do is just set up an appointment and go see the space yourself. When you know, you know, and with Montfair, we just knew.

Montfair Resort Farm is truly magical. Not just the stunning environment (rolling green hills, blue ridge mountains, perfectly picturesque lake!), but also the staff. There are plenty of pictures of the Montfair that speak for itself - which we can loudly and confidently confirm - but there's little physical evidence of how amazing everyone at Montfair is in helping you plan, envision, and recognize your ideal wedding. At the end of the weekend (because yes, you can have an entire wedding weekend at Montfair! not just a day), it was the \"Yes\" and \"Can do\" attitude of everyone at Montfair that made planning a joy and the wedding stress-free. When we dreamt of a vintage, mobile caravan to uniquely serve as our bar in two different locations, Montfair rolled up their sleeves and helped us and the vendor find a way to position themselves safely, securely, and in perfect sight for our guests. This was a first-time vendor at Montfair and could have easily been turned away because of size and complexity to move throughout the grounds (literally needed to be backed up in between two trees), but Montfair didn't even think about that option. They were willing to try and make everything work. That collaborative and supporting sentiment is truly unique for Montfair as a wedding venue. And this is just one story! There are tons more in which Montfair worked with us to have a wedding completely our own, not adhering to cookie cutter standards and rules. It's hard to express everything that Montfair did for us into words, but when thinking about our wedding, we wanted a place that truly captured our personalities - nature-loving, intimate, relaxing, rustic, sophisticated, unique and personable. Montfair is that place. We couldn't recommend them enough!

Choosing Montfair was the best decision we made while planning our wedding!The surroundings absolutely blew us away — from the beautiful mountain backdrop of our ceremony, to the magical cocktail hour setting of the lake and woods. The venue provided the perfect combination of a festive but relaxed atmosphere, which helped our guests celebrate without feeling like the events were too staged or constrained. At the cocktail hour, our guests appreciated the variety of activities available, from lawn games, to mingling on the deck, to taking the canoes out on the lake. It was really important to us to take the opportunity of the wedding to spend time with friends and family, so the ability to rent the property + cabins for the whole weekend was truly special. Our wedding party stayed in the cabins, and had everything they needed to just relax and have a good time. Beauchamp House was a great spot for my bridesmaids and me to get ready. Besides giving us extra time with friends and family, renting the venue for the full weekend made it easy to plan events on Friday and Sunday and keep costs down. We had our rehearsal dinner down by the lake, and brought in a donut truck for Sunday brunch. Easy!The Montfair staff was a dream to work with. Katie Teel answered all our questions and stayed on top of every detail. During the wedding weekend, Aila set up a gorgeous bonfire and made sure we had everything we needed. We can’t recommend Montfair highly enough, and are hoping to return in future years to stay in a cabin and relive the magic!

Montfair and their staff truly exceeded all expectations. Let's start with the venue. The venue is simply perfect. It's in a stunning location with just perfect views of the mountains and a gorgeous lake. The lodge and porch are perfect, with lovely lighting already set up and available to you. Every guest commented how gorgeous the venue was, and one note how the setting resembled a painting. We unfortunately had some rain on the day of the wedding, but because the venue comes with the lodge for the reception and a lighted tent covering the deck, we were able to quickly shift into plan b and keep our guests dry. The atmosphere remained perfect and the staff were so flexible in helping us adjust. Next the staff: Katie Teel is simply amazing. Throughout the year she quickly and efficiently responded to every inquiry we had - much more quickly and thoroughly than any other venue we were considering. So for the cost of the venue you are not only getting an amazing location but an absolutely wonderful hand in Katie. Most helpful perhaps was Katie's extraordinary flexibility. While our contract only entitled us to access the property at noon, Katie and the staff worked hard to still get us access as soon as possible. We couldn't have asked for a more pleasant and helpful experience.Next, another perfect thing about montfair is there are no limits on vendors or caterers. You can bring what you want from whomever you want. Their kitchen is huge so you can store cold and hot dishes as you please.Finally, the accommodations at Montfair were really wonderful. The main house - the Beauchamp House - is large and comfortable and serves as a great staging and prep area for the bridal party. The cabins in the woods around the reception cabin are serene, relaxing, and rustic, but with all the amenities you would need to stay comfortable (kitchen, wifi, showers, etc).We enjoyed montfair so much we are hoping to spend our one year anniversary at a cabin there. We highly recommend using this venue.

Going into our venue search, we knew we wanted to get married somewhere that was laid back but also somewhere that showcased Virginia's beauty. After we visited Montfair for the first time, we canceled all of our other venue tours and booked our wedding weekend right away as it had everything we wanted and more. The location was perfect for our families and friends and with the package we chose, we were able to have our entire wedding party stay in the cabins that are located on site the whole weekend. We got very lucky with the weather clearing up and were able to have the ceremony at the ceremony field with the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in the backdrop. Even if the weather hadn't cleared up, we had peace of mind knowing that we had a back-up ceremony location at the lodge on the covered deck. The reception at the lodge could not have turned out better. Everything about Montfair is already so naturally beautiful that we only had to add details that enhanced the beauty. Everyone we worked with at Montfair was so helpful and nice. It truly is a DIY venue so if you are the creative type and love to incorporate nature into your crafts, then this is the venue for you. One good and bad thing about the location is there is very little cell phone service. This was good for our guests because it kind of forced it to be a technology free wedding. If you want to avoid any communication issues, a tip would be to purchase/rent/borrow walkie talkies. We purchased enough for the wedding party and wedding planner and they helped us out immensely since the resort is pretty spread out. Another tip would be to rent golf carts. We rented a 2, 4 and 6 seater GEM/golf carts and they were used all weekend to help zip around the resort quickly and to also escort guests to and from the ceremony field from the parking lot/lodge. We had guests that were older or couldn't walk long distances so they were very appreciative of this. Overall, if you are a laid back, casual bride and groom who just want to have a laid back, casual setting to have a fun weekend with your closest friends and family, then Montfair is no doubt the venue for you. We love it and we can't wait to come back and spend weekends there.

Montfair provided us with the perfect location for our wedding. We visited several venues from southern Virginia to Maryland, and none compared to the price, service, and location offered by Montfair. Just outside of Charlottesville, VA, Montfair is tucked away within the beautiful landscape of Crozet, Virginia. The venue presents incredible views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, beautiful forestry, as well as a picture perfect lake. We had several hundred pictures taken at the resort and we cannot express enough how big of an impact the beautiful scenery had on our special day. In addition, to the scenic views, Montfair provided several on site activities for our guests including canoeing and fishing on the lake, as well as hiking and biking the local hiking trails. We held our ceremony at the peak of Montfair grounds and took full advantage of the Blue Ridge Mountain ridge line to compliment our event. We held our reception in their beautiful on site rustic lodge, which more than adequately supported our 100 plus guests. One of the best features of the resort were the 7 cabins on site including a house which were all rented at great rates for our bridal party and close family members. The cabins made our event extremely convenient and provided us with the ability to quickly organize for our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception. In addition, having this on site housing provided us with the ability to ensure that everyone could relax and have great time knowing they could easily walk to their cabin at any point. We even decided to rent the venue for three full days so that everyone could fully enjoy the scenery and Montfair resort. The Montfair staff definitely provided the wow factor with regards to service. Our wedding was definitely not an easy event with our large family, and they provided everyone with great respect and service. We were given the space we needed to enjoy our event, and at the same time, Katie and the rest of the Montfair team were ready at will to support our every need during the event. The Montfair team did a great job at keeping our event running smoothly and we cannot thank them enough for making our special day perfect.

The staff is so easy to work with and it really is such a beautiful retreat. With both a mountain and water feature this venue really stood out and our guests were so blown away by the beauty. Just note that the venue comes with just the venue and tables/chairs (and the cottages if you want!) so you do have to find options for linen, glassware, plates, etc. but usually your caterer will assist you with that.

This was the perfect wedding venue overlooking the mountains. It was ideal for our wedding in September. The staff was fantastic to work with while we were planning and were great the weekend of the wedding. Our family and friends loved having the option to stay in the cabins. We also loved having the bonfire after the rehearsal dinner and reception to keep the party going! We look forward to returning to Montfair!

Montfair is truly a magical location. It's got all you could ask for in a Charlottesville wedding venue - a gorgeous view of the mountains, an intimate late, a rustic wood lodge, cabins where your guests can stay, and REALLY friendly staff.

We could not have had a better celebration at Montfair! We had a small wedding this past February and were looking for a place to have a larger weekend-long celebration with friends and family. Montfair was just the perfect place! We rented out the farm for Memorial Day weekend. We had friends and family stay at the house on the property as well as rent out the rustic cabins and camp by the lake. The setting was utterly perfect. We got very lucky and had perfect weather. Our weekend included a bonfire each night, hilarious team games that we organized on the field, a small ceremony where we read our vows by the water, a cocktail hour in the wooded area by the lodge, dinner in the lodge, a fantastic dance party on the porch, Sunday brunch on the porch, a hike in the nearby national park, a brewery visit, and a bbq to end the weekend's festivities. The staff at Montfair were so kind, flexible, and supportive. They gave us the room to design the weekend anyway we wanted. Every one of our guests who spoke with them raved about their customer service and just how friendly they were. The one recommendation that I have is to plan for a variety of accommodations beyond what is offered at Montfair. We have some family members who are not quite low-maintenance enough to camp or stay in the cabins. We rented out a hotel block in Charlottesville and hired a shuttle for the main event to accommodate these guests. We cannot wait to go back to Montfair and spend more time in a place that has become so special to us!

We had our rehearsal dinner here, outdoor at the fire pit and deck area. There were no bathrooms as the inside area was off limits for an event the next day. The people there were nice to work with and we only paid a fee for \"firewood\" and several of our guests had rented nearby cabins, so we could use their bathrooms if needed. It is very rustic. If we had better weather, there probably wouldn't have been a complaint (other than the bathroom situation).

There isn't a single thing we would change about our wedding day at Montfair! The setting is beautiful (even in the rain!) and the staff is out of this world. Lisa will lay all your bridal worries to rest and help ensure a perfect day. There’s something magical about every piece of a wedding at Montfair…. The ceremony in the field is intimate and breathtaking all at the same time. The exposed wood beams at the lodge hold hundreds of twinkling lights, which along with the roaring fire transform the building from lodge to dream-wedding-venue. And the lake a sunset – there isn't a more perfect place! You can’t go wrong!

Having our wedding family reception at Montfair was a beautiful experience. From the initial contact on the phone though visiting/touring the venue, all the way until our event, working with the staff was amazingly peaceful. We were so grateful to welcome our family to such a simple yet lovely evening to celebrate our wedding earlier that day. We would describe the staff as kind, salt-of-the-earth people willing and happy to help us plan in any way they could. They are easy-going but also reliable and thorough.\r\rMy husband and I valued greatly the ability to tailor the space to our personalities and the freedom to provide our own food and drinks on a reasonable budget. Montfair welcomed our small set-up group consisting of family and friends to arrive before us and get things ready for the party. We appreciated that we were given space to use the lodge as we desired and at the same time were comforted to know the staff was available to help if we needed it. Our family enjoyed the bonfire and had a wonderful time spending the night in the cabins.\r\rOn another note, the location and landscape at Montfair are stunning. The lake and surrounding mountains brought us so much joy and our wedding pictures were beautiful.\r\rWe are forever thankful for Monfair's sincere service and the lasting memories of our time there.\rWe hope to visit again sometime and thoroughly recommend this vendor to anyone who appreciates rustic beauty and genuine people.

Montfair is located in a picturesque Blue Ridge mountain setting, with beautiful trees and foliage. There are several rustic and cozy cabins for guests to spend the night at, as well as a very modern Beauchamp House for the bride and groom and bride / bridesmaid prep before the event. The lodge (and cabins) overlook a nice lake and guest can make their way down to shore at night for the bonfire.\rAbsolutely beautiful.

What a wonderful venue for a relaxed, lovely wedding reception. The folks at Montfair are helpful, calm, and accommodating--essential qualities for a wedding vendor. I planned the wedding from across the country, and Raya and all were great at answering questions and making sure the event was fun.

OMG our wedding was amazing! When we visited Montfair, it smelled like my favorite childhood memories of camp and I could see my family hanging out by the bonfire and fishing in the lake. We booked it for our rehearsal dinner as well and I would HIGHLY recommend doing that. Having Friday to spend with my family and friends made Saturday soooo much easier. \rWe could not have picked a venue that better fit us. I wanted to be in control of a lot and since Montfair is a DIY place, that worked out wonderfully.

We had our daughter's wedding at the beautiful Montfair Resort Farm in June 2013. The venue was absolutely gorgeous and we could not have asked for a more perfect day. This was the first wedding I have ever \"done\" so I don't have anything to compare. My only comment would be on the cost of renting the venue.

My husband and I got married here in early May and it was, without a doubt, the most perfect venue for the kind of wedding we wanted to have. We wanted a location that offered natural, amazing outdoor views (the ceremony field is breathtaking), rustic reception features (the lodge for receptions is perfect for a rustic, DIY set up), and casual overnight accommodations for our wedding party, family, and friends (log cabins and camping in tents! What could be better!?) The staff at Montfair was SO helpful and professional... but also gave us the right amount of space for us to \"do our own thing\" which I really appreciated. We also felt like the overall price was extremely reasonable. \r\rA few points: \r\rIf you're a relaxed couple that loves the outdoors and has a casual family/wedding party/guests that enjoy camping, Montfair is perfect. Our immediate family and wedding party stayed in the on-site cabins/house and our guests brought their own tents and camped out right by the venue. We really liked that our friends had on-site accommodations that didn't cost them much, which can alleviate the burden on your guests; we could tell our friends appreciated that/enjoyed the tent party! The cabins were also SO cool and well kept. I didn't see any bugs in our cabin and all the cabins were stocked full of anything we needed. \r\rIf you're a couple that wants a lot of creative freedom in your choice of food, decorations, etc.. this is your place. If you just want to check a few boxes and be on your way.. this probably isn't the place for you. The best part about Montfair was that we made it our own! \r\rAlso keep in mind, the two of you can visit Montfair again and again for anniversaries and such years to come. We certainly plan on doing so!

The wedding weekend itself was more perfect than we ever could have hoped, we wouldn't have changed a thing. The Montfair staff took exceptional care of our guests and of us, providing us with whatever we needed. The local coffee in the cabins, the endless wood supply for bonfires, the paper lanterns in the trees...Montfair's attention to details made the weekend so memorable. Many of our guests didn't want to leave at the end of the weekend - and neither did we!\rWe know already that we'll return to Montfair for future anniversaries and other celebrations...it's a magical place that will always be dear in our hearts.

I was married at Mont Fair Resort Farms this September, It was BEAUTIFUL!! I could not have dreamt a prettier place to be married. I am a originally from Missouri so the mountain in VA always take my breath away... And the setting here so breath taking. Everyone who attended the wedding gushed about how wonderful it was! We also rented the Main House and a couple cabins. They were very nice, I stayed at the Main House and the beds were awesome!! The house it's self was lovely, very open floor plan, night before the wedding my girls and I stayed there and hung out on the screen in porch! The whole experience was just amazing... I loved it and I wouldn't have changed a thing we got some gorgeous pictures and we had a blast. By far the best wedding I have attended ;) I really can't say enough about the venue and the Family running Mont Fair Resort Farms. They were very reasonable and helpful, but not pushy which I loved cuz I had been to other places that were very pushy. I also really like that we were able to get all our own vendors which really cut down on cost of the wedding. We may have paid more for a venue but we made up the price being able to hire all of our own vendors. I recommend this place to everyone I talk to about my wedding, even if you aren't getting married it is a beautiful place to just get away to.

Amazing setting, magnetic, people just want to relax and explore the grounds. Great value, charging way less than other vendors in the area and give you a longer period of time for set up, reception, and clean up. Very caring staff, they want to help. Not at all pretentious or up tight feeling, more like a family feeling. Warm and welcoming. You can dress the area up or down depending on your style. Lots of choices on where to have the wedding and party. Outdoors by the lake or in the field or indoors by the fireplace? Laid back feel, make it what you want!

My wife and I wanted a venue that suited our personalities. Throughout the planning process, we tried to avoid most of what the wedding industry suggests is essential for weddings and to take a route that felt more authentic to us. It was difficult to do, but it helped that we chose Montfair Resort Farm as our venue. It rained on our May wedding day, and still an amazing time was had by all.\r\rPros: Beautiful setting; personable/helpful staff who are willing to work with you; low-key/rustic venue that can be decorated in different ways; you can choose your own caterer and bartender (saves you a lot of money); indoor/outdoor space; many vendors familiar with the venue; Montfair does not try to up-sell you in any way.\r\rCons: Have to take your own trash/set-up/clean-up if your caterer doesn't do it (not that big of a deal for us); management is occasionally disorganized\r\rOverall, we had a great experience at Montfair and would do it over again!

So, I am a country girl and like things simple - Montfair delivers! We rented all 7 cabins for two nights and had quite the event. All the folks at Montfair are awesome, there if you need them, and behind the scenes out of the way if you don't. Absolutely beautiful setting, the lodge is rustic and while the kitchen and bathrooms could use some updating the place dresses up well and provides all that you could want or need on your big day. I wouldn't change a thing, and fully intend to rent cabins or the whole place again for the family as soon as time and money allow. If you enjoy simplicity, nature, evenings by the fire, and creating the perfect atmosphere for your wedding, you've found the right spot. Be sure to go check it out of course, I had a few people look at me funny when we went to see it, but the pictures on the website are a great indication of what they can do in the lodge. We had about 170 guests, used banquet tables and did the reception buffet style - everything turned out exceptionally well. Use a caterer that's been up there before and knows the ropes and you'll be all set! As for value, I thought the price was on the high side, but do the math 7 cabins 2 nights each and seeing how it all turned out - the weekend was priceless.

We loved our Montfair wedding!! The only thing that I would warn you about is - Make sure to keep all of your receipts and be sure to keep an accurate count of all payments made. We paid off our total about 4 months prior to the wedding and about two weeks before a person from the staff called two different times saying that we had a large balance due. I politely told them that we were paid in full and recited the check number used and the exact amt, etc. The staff seemed to be unorganized in that aspect. Overall, the venue was beautiful and I would recommend this for anyone looking to have a unique rustic wedding. We help our ceremony by the lake and it was perfect!

We found Montfair Resort Farm after looking at many places in the Blue Ridge area for a ceremony spot with a killer view, and one that provided lodging. We were graced with perfect October weather and couldn't have imagined a better setting for our wedding. \rBonuses: Super friendly and helpful owners, gorgeous ceremony views, wooden ceremony arch, rustic lodge and deck to accomodate any size reception (also good for inclement weather), onsite accomodations for guests (only up to about 40 or so), bon fire site, and lots more...\rSome things to Consider: All tables and chairs for wedding and reception except for picnic tables need to be provided by others. It seemed to me that anything in the Crozet/Charlottesville area has inflated prices compared to more urban locations; however, we found most all of the local services we hired provided excellent quality. \rAlthough it is perhaps a little more work pulling it all together at a place like this....Definitely Recommended!!

We used this setting for a more 'informal' reception. The lodge is rustic and provided a great indoor space for dinner and as a hedge against rain. There is a lovely huge deck, which made a wonderful and unique dancing area overlooking the lake. One downside is they rent cottages on teh other side of the lake, so they do limit the noise level somewhat. There is a field with gorgeous mountains in the background and a patch of beautiful wildflowers in the right season which makes for lovely photos if the weather cooperates.
