"Went there for an evening wedding reception the first week of January 2024. The place was beautiful and the food was excellent. The only disappointing thing was that it had snowed that day (3-4 inches) and became bitterly cold. The driveway and steps to the mansion were loaded with ice and snow. Everyone had boots on, and we were still slipping and sliding. Also, the wallway from the mansion (where we had cocktails) to the actual building where the dinner and dancing took place, was also packed with snow and ice. Everyone was holding onto each other, slipping and sliding. If you're a business hosting an event, you need to make sure the grounds of the event are as safe as possible, even if it means having staff shovel again, right before the event happens. It was definitely a liability hazard. For the amount of $$$ this reception cost, I would have thought the Antrim would have done better."

"This is truly a 5 out of 5 hotel. It's a gem hidden in an unsuspecting town. The rooms were so clean and so unique, and the staff is all so friendly and accommodating. Also, the grounds are BEAUTIFUL! Could visit any month of the year and have a delicious meal, beautiful views, and a comfy room to return to each night."

"The house was decorated beautifully for Christmas, the service was amazing (James) and the savory food was so, so good. However, this is our 3rd visit in 14 months where the desserts have not been good. The tiramisu was dry and the gingerbread was way too sweet. They used to do a tasty tray of assorted desserts which was really nice. It's such a shame to end such a lovely experience on a disappointing note. I hope they can improve that component because everything else was phenomenal."

"A group of friends came here to celebrate a birthday with a private dinner in the formal dining room and to stay the night. We had a wonderful time! Rooms - be careful which you choose, not all have a standard shower. We made do with the tub and spay hose in ours, no big deal. Gas fireplace was nice and bed comfy! Our group had 4 of the 6 rooms in the carriage house and we spent some time in the public parlor there, which was nice. Dinner - we got moved from our original reservation, but they were very accommodating and I think we ended up in the perfect place for our group - the formal dining room. This is the afternoon tea room they convert - they have an nice spread for tea. Food was amazing!!! Drinks were fantastic! Our server seemed newer there and admitted they were slightly understaffed that night. My laid back group didn't mind the slightly slower service or couple minor hiccups, but since all patrons aren't so laid back, I let the service stars reflect the actuality of the situation that night."

"I got married at Antrim in October 2023. It was absolutely stunning! The trees were just beginning to change colors, and all the flowers were still in bloom. The garden was beautiful- very Alice in Wonderland-esque. The staff was amazing, too. Jill was our wedding coordinator. She certainly had her hands full with our group, but did it with such grace and patience. We also loved working with Richie! He helped empty our cars and set up the whole wedding, along with packing everything back up at the end. He was somehow always there when we needed an extra hand! We loved walking the ground and checking out all of our friends and families houses! Highly recommend getting married here!"
