What event spaces are available at Estelle?

Estelle includes several distinct spaces across the property. The Drawing Room is the heart of the venue, built in 1807 from logs native to the land, with vaulted ceilings and large windows. The Front Porch and Garden welcome guests with a private lawn just off Woodland Street, ideal for registration or an outdoor welcome. The Portico is an enclosed corridor with checkered floors connecting the Drawing Room, Courtyard, and kitchens, well suited for additional seating or a bar setup. The Courtyard is a partially covered outdoor space tucked between the Portico and Carriage House, ideal for cocktail hour. The Carriage House is a charming back house with its own furnished suite, kitchenette, and open floor plan, well suited for cocktails, breakout sessions, or a more intimate gathering.
