If you are considering Covey Rise Lodge for your wedding venue, DO IT!!! My husband and I got married here in March and when I say it was the most perfect weekend, I mean it. The team at covey was absolutely amazing. We worked directly with Cayse every step of the way with venue visits, planning, final selections, etc. and she was tremendous help. The day of the wedding we had Leigh Ann guiding us with our wedding planner and she was a breath the entire weekend. The staff was top notch and the food was incredibly!! Everything was there which made the whole weekend very seamless and actually allowed us to take everything in without it going by with a blink of an eye. If we could do it all over again, we would and not change a thing!!! Reviewed on 30-12-2023

Whatever it is that you want, they will find a way to make it happen!!!!

If you are looking for top notch…The Venue at Covey Rise is it! We held a 40th birthday party there and every detail was perfect from start to finish. Cayse and Leighann helped us every step of the way and ensured every detail was perfect. Our guests were not only blown away by the space but the amazing food that Chef Austin prepared. The fact that our guests could stay on site was a game changer. The cabins and hideaways were gorgeous and just steps away from where the party was held. Several of our guests have already made plans to return at a later date for a hunt or farm to table dinner. We will DEFINITELY be back to this amazing venue! Reviewed on 05-08-2023

I cannot put into words how great my experience with Covey Rise Lodge was. From start to finish, their entire team made everything in my wedding so easy and wonderful. Cayse always kept me updated, and never let any stress fall on my shoulders! The food was absolutely amazing and I got so many compliments after the wedding! This venue will truly make your day a dream. I had my close family members and friends stay the night before the wedding and the cabins and hideaways were in perfect condition. Covey Rise is the best of the best!!!! Reviewed on 05-08-2023

THE BEST!!! Hosted a big surprise 40th party for my husband. First thing.. hands down best event food I’ve ever had. Every piece of filet was perfection. I still dream about the farm to table salad. Better than many of the high end restaurants and will please those with the most discerning of palates. Truly 5 star food and staff. As a former event planner, it was so nice to let the Covey Rise team do their thing. They’re so good at it and made it the easiest and most enjoyable party ever. Guests (and guest of honor) still raving about it all!! Guests were wanting to go back to because the food was SO good. The lodging is insanely beautiful and peaceful. Don’t be deceived thinking you are renting just a “cabin”.. these are well appointed luxury homes. The team handled all my guests lodging. I barely had to lift a finger. I told them my wants and ideas and they just made it all happen. I have not one single complaint about the planning process or the event itself. Exceeded all expectations. They helped deal with a last minute cake crisis and pulled off a true miracle that saved the party. I cannot recommend enough and won’t be our last event there. Reviewed on 05-08-2023

Shelby G(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-09-2022 We got married here in September, and I can honestly say, it was the best decision! We live two hours away, so my anxiety was high, but Cayse worked tirelessly to make sure our day was perfect! Every little detail was executed perfectly. The venue was so accommodating and to this day, months later, we still have guests telling us how much they loved the venue and the food! An added bonus is all the cabins and hideaways for rent on the property so guests can stay the weekend! Reviewed on 07-02-2023
Cade Freneaux(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-10-2022 Truly could not put into words how wonderful the whole of Covey Rise is - from the get go, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate and work with us throughout the wedding process. Cayse was quick to respond, patient and understanding, and willing to bring all the thoughts in my head to life. Chef Austin made certainly the best wedding food I’ve ever come across - the food tasted even better than it looked, which is saying a great deal. The staff are incredibly friendly and kind. Mr. Jimbo went out of his way to make our wedding come to life, and that is something we will not forget. The Venue speaks for itself - such an elegant, (clean!) and timeless/classy facility - not comparable to any other venue that we could find. As I write this, I can’t think of a single thing I’d change. We could not have been more grateful to have been married there! Reviewed on 22-01-2023

Casey and Leigh Ann the event coordinators took the time to help plan, organize and destress weeks/months before the big day! Leaving the big day stress free!

Chloe Frady(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-10-2022 I cannot recommend Covey Rise enough! It was obvious they went above and beyond for our wedding and helped me have the wedding of my dreams! The wedding coordinator, Cayse, was fantastic. She kept in touch with me all year and made sure every detail was exactly how I wanted it! Jimbo, the property owner even gave me his personal cell phone number to get in touch with him if I needed anything on my wedding weekend. He also was present the night of my wedding to personally ensure we had a perfect night. After the wedding, we got so many compliments from our guests about The Venue. Everyone was impressed by the beauty of the property, how delicious the food was and how attentive the bar staff was. My personal favorite part of having my wedding at Covey Rose was being able to stay on site with my bridesmaids the night before and having family and friends staying the night of the wedding. It felt like a destination wedding! My husband’s favorite part was going on a duck hunt the morning of the wedding with his dad! We are so glad we chose Covey Rise! Reviewed on 12-01-2023
