The Outlook at Saddle Ridge is a country dreamscape with rolling hills, lavish gardens, and wrap-around patios. To make for a unique photo opportunity, a herd of friendly highland cattle is the perfect backdrop for any event. On the inside, whitewashed wood and twinkling chandeliers create a warm and elegant space for guests. The Outlook may sound like a remote, magical place in a faraway land, but it’s right here in town, just 12 minutes from the bustling intersection of Winterpock Road and Hull Street Road.

Originally designed as a boarding facility for the Smith family’s horses and a place for their daughters to barrel race, The Outlook eventually became a beautiful space for a rustic but modern wedding. With two event barns, a charming bridal cottage with a screened-in porch overlooking the meadows, a semi-permanent tent, spectacular gardens, a riding ring, and horse rentals, the Smith family’s mission is to share the beauty of the Outlook with others. Whether planning a wedding, fundraiser, corporate event, or business lunch, The Outlook at Saddle Ridge is the picture-perfect place to host your next special occasion.
