Retreat 21 - Marysville, Ohio

Retreat 21 is an amazing venue! Their staff was so helpful and the grounds are absolutely gorgeous with beautiful scenery. I loved the bridal suite and the guys were able to get ready in the waterfront cabin across the pond. Great mix between modern and rustic with a touch of enchanted forest ?

Retreat 21 is the best wedding venue I have ever shot at! There is so much space to keep the girls separate from the guys for getting ready shots and relaxing time before walking down the aisle. There is so much natural light throughout the entire venue and so many different locations to get a different variety of backdrops for the photos. There are wildflowers, trees, vineyards, cabins, rocks, waterfalls, cabins, and absolutely beautiful spaces all around. Tons of space for parking which is always an important piece of the planning process for big events. This is a perfect venue for couples who love nature, the outdoors, and each other. I can't think of a more perfect place to tie the knot! The team at Retreat 21 is just as great as the location. Very involved with helping out, answering questions, and making sure the day runs smoothly for everyone. I can't wait to work with the team at Retreat 21 again in the future!

We picked Retreat 21 when it was still under construction. I was so excited to have a clean, new, and modern venue. We honestly did not have to decorate much as the place is so beautiful as is. The slightest touches made our vision come to life. It was amazing to have the option to stay on site. The cabins where everything we need and more! Of course it reduced any wedding stress knowing the whole event is in on place. Michaela was there from the start and I cannot say enough about her❤️ She is SO friendly and easy to work with. The day was amazing and went so smoothly. Oh, and you HAVE to choose the in house catering. So delicious!

This experience was part of a Yelp elite event, so my experience may be biased but my review is not. I greatly appreciate this business for hosting me. This place is stunning. The drive isn’t too far from civilization but it does feel like you’re in a desolate area, which gives it a lovely getaway vibe. Driving onto the property, you enter a beautiful landscape making you feel like you’re about to begin a retreat. There are two buildings, the closer one with the taphouse and the further one for private events. People had a wedding that day, and I could tell why. Around the taphouse, there is plentiful seating with fire pits and outdoor games. Even more seating can be found indoors with some indoor games and a nice atmosphere. Although there are many giant fans indoors, the temperature does feel the same as outdoors so keep that in mind on a hot day. The menu is pretty limited with food options, so if you plan on eating I recommend reviewing the menu beforehand. I have been to many brewery-type places, never too impressed. This place, however, greatly impressed me. I ordered the cider flight and Italian flatbread, and each of them was extremely aromatic with their listed ingredients. I was extra impressed with the flatbread because Italian pizzas are usually greasy but this one was soft and flavorful. On Saturdays beginning at 6, they increase the fun with live music and food trucks. If you are looking for a local escape, I highly recommend this place.

Retreat 21 was the most beautiful venue for our wedding and continues to be the top thing our guests compliment us on. When we first toured the property we fell in love and the unique offerings were impossible to beat. The staff was committed to making the day perfect and the communication was 11/10. Michaela Neu Barteldt was a literal dream to work with and we cannot thank her enough for her constant support and expertise. This place will always have a very special place in our hearts and we will be visiting the taphouse to celebrate our anniversary, no doubt!

Really far out. Their operations hours are all over the place. They seem to be set up for rental space. Please know it's a rock driveway. Very jagged. The place was just ok. Not memorable. Nothing special.. they had live music and the guy was horrible. The cider vine was good not special. The flatbread was just bread nothing special . I wouldn't return however I do suggest you give it a try if you live close.

If you're thinking about booking with Retreat 21 for your wedding, this is your sign! They took such good care of us throughout the entire wedding planning process. Their site is stunning, with an exceptionally gorgeous interior to their main event space. If you're having a winter (or indoor) wedding, you won't find a better location. Their staff was also incredible! Our day-of-coordinator, Michaela, was exceptionally kind and diligent. We were so impressed with how thorough Michaela and Retreat 21 were in our meetings and would recommend them to anyone worried about the details. We are so thankful for Retreat 21 and their staff and cannot sing their praises loudly enough!

P.S. If you book R21, book Hudson's Edge as your caterer! We adored Christyn Martin and her team as well! 🙂

Retreat 21 was the perfect venue. The property is stunning and curated perfectly for a wedding. We received so many compliments on how wonderful the venue was. And being able to stay on-site throughout the weekend made everything so much easier and fun! The team at Retreat was always so helpful and happy, both during the planning process and day of, particularly Maggie and Michaela. We could not recommend Retreat 21 more. Our wedding was the best day/night and Retreat was a major reason for that
