A Great Place to Have Your Event

by SeasndHosptltyProffsnl at Citysearch

I recently had a reception at Greystone and stayed overnight.

As a previous poster mentioned, there is some noise from traffic, however not enough for a distraction. There where too many other things that kept my and my guest's attention...the great company of family & friends, a beautiful venue rich in history, not to mention the hospitality received and the ginormous (is that even a word???) gourmet breakfast served. The beautiful venue, the history and the hospitality we received makes any event or stay at Greystone well worth it!

• Pros: A beautiful venue, hospitality, comfortable sleeping rooms

Pros and Cons of Weddings at Greystone Inn

by MyOpinion78 at Citysearch

I had my wedding and reception at Greystone last year. I'd like to rate my experience with 2.5 stars out of 5. If I had to do it over, I'd probably pick a different place. Like a previous poster, I found the owner hard to communicate with. And I felt that when she did answer e-mails, she didn't address all the questions. Also, she told me that she would be at my wedding to assist with the flow of things and she would "take care of me". And when the day came, it turns out she left during the wedding/reception! The house and yard are pretty during the right time of year - our guests loved the house. However, I'd have to tell brides not to get married at Greystone - the street in front of the house is just too loud with passing cars and I know the most of our guests couldn't hear (even with our mics). The boom of music from passing cars is all we hear in our wedding video! The area of town is not nice - large abandoned buildings within walking distance. Our reception was indoor/outdoor and worked well (and people had fun) although I wouldn't have an event with more than 80 people. Also, music must stop at 10pm. I think it is too expensive for what it is. The fees don't include any rentals - tables, chairs, linins, etc --- you have to rent everything through other vendors. Overall, it's too much hassle.

• Pros: Neat old house, elegant feel, neat porch
• Cons: Owner, price, loud street, rain plan, run-down area of town

Fabulous Service

by wrldtraveler01 at Citysearch

The owner's attention to details and our needs was really amazing. Always available but not intrusive. Hostesses were so nice and easy to work with. They made our weekend with their organic herbs added to an incredible breakfast. I would stay here anytime I could. The owner arranged our food, transportation and suggested activities for us and our friends. The feel of complete solitude so close to everything was amazing in this 1910 treasure of a house. I loved it!

• Pros: Amazing Breakfasts
