After the ceremony, treat your guests to a grand reception at Baron's Bluff! With indoor and outdoor spaces, you can choose the perfect set up for your dream celebration. Cocktail hour on The View, perhaps? How about yard games on the spacious lawn? Add tables on the surrounding porches, or use the space for a s'mores bar instead. 

The indoor space at Baron's Bluff offers an open concept layout for flexible design options. A small side room provides an ideal spot for a photo booth, the cake table, or a selection of desserts. Guests can wander easily between the indoor and outdoor areas. Whatever you do, don't miss a glimpse of the city lights twinkling in the valley after dark! The view from the overlook is surreal.
