The Fireside Room is a lovely venue for any occasion. I love that it's family owned and operated. They go out of their way to create a welcoming atmosphere for each and every guest and it's clear from the beginning that they care about making your day special. The venue itself is beautiful and inviting. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would, and I'll continue to recommend them to anyone in need of an event space.
