Summary: We hired out the Courthouse with family and friends to celebrate two momentous birthdays a 20th and 40th. The space within, facilities and river frontage made for a truly relaxing and unique experience for us all. The courtyard is a fantastic space to host a celebration. You will not be disappointed with your stay. Sarah was amazing and super responsive to questions and was wonderfully flexible in allowing our group a later checkout.
