Our History

IMG_4547.JPG

The CHQ Barn is truly a fairytale story. Once a dairy farm and then a working horse farm, the Barn sits tucked into 157 acres of a beloved family property that has captured the essence and the spirit of Chautauqua, featuring some of the most picturesque landscapes surrounding Chautauqua Lake and the New York countryside. 

The Barn underwent a transformation, converting its proud yet humble beginnings into a stately and elegant venue. Built of dreams and local craftsmanship but still embracing a true farm feel, the Barn features rustic touches accompanied by timeless yet elegant details. The farm, of course, showcases the beautiful, rolling property and some friendly horses still roaming the pastures. Some might say that this transformation was like turning a pumpkin into a horse-drawn carriage, a true Cinderella story. 

The CHQ Barn debuted as a Wedding venue on June 1st, 2019. Since that first, very special wedding, the Barn has been the gathering space for hundreds of weddings, holding family and friends in celebration ever since.
