Why Choose Us For Your Next Event?

Historic Property

The Banker’s House is a unique and beautiful historic property, listed in the National Register of Historic Places. You will be proud to host your wedding or event in such a special one-of-a-kind location.

Full Access

Renters have access to the historic house, spacious surrounding grounds and the renovated carriage house/barn, with ample lighted parking adjacent to property.

Superior Service

Support from staff is maintained from beginning to end of the rental time, from setting up, throughout the event, and during clearing away. Because it is a treasured local venue, nearby caterers, florists and suppliers have a deep familiarity with the property as well.

Beautiful Location

The variety of beautiful spaces encompassed in the property is unparalleled -- from intimate, enclosed garden “rooms,” to expanses of manicured lawn for larger, tented events. Professional photographers have often noted the plethora of locations available for amazing photo backdrops.

Modern Amenities

The barn/carriage house is modern in feeling and amenities but retains the flavor of its historic equestrian past. This space features a caterers’ kitchen; warming ovens; a poured concrete bar; beer aerator; bar seating; matching tables and chairs for a variety of configurations; and convenient, handicap-accessible bathrooms.

Affordable Pricing

As a non-profit, rental prices are affordable. And all of the above items speak to the enormous value that you get for your money!

“The Banker’s House Barn was an excellent venue for my daughter-in-law’s 50th  birthday party. The space was more than enough for the 40+ guests that attended and the night was just magical. The venue coordinator was very helpful with information prior to and during the event. I can certainly recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a great place for a special event and for great people to work with.”

-Linda J Howard

“Beautiful House!! We were admiring the house and taking pictures when we had the opportunity of meeting (Executive Director Carolyn Jackson), and right away she started talking to us and she gave us a little background story of the house and the events they usually do there. She was really sweet and friendly with us. I would definitely recommend stopping by to see this house even from the outside"

And the people that work there will make sure you have everything you need and more for your event.... Our Rehearsal Dinner (was) held
