The Big Barn ✦ Corporate Events

The offsite they
actually talk about.

An hour from DC and Tysons Corner, a world away from the conference room. Flexible indoor-outdoor spaces, brewery tours, custom menus — and ten acres of Shenandoah Valley to clear everyone's head.

Two Ways to Rent

By the hour,
or for the day.

Book the Mezzanine by the hour for meetings and workshops, or take the whole barn and grounds for the day. Either way, one on-site team handles setup, catering, and pours.

Hourly — The Mezzanine

An elevated meeting space overlooking the whole barn — TVs for your deck, climate control, and seating that rearranges to fit the agenda for up to 50. From $250/hr with a 2-hour minimum, setup time included.

Daily — The Full Venue

The Shenandoah Sunset buyout — five hours of the two-level barn, patios, gazebo, and grounds for retreats, all-hands, holiday parties, and client days. You pick the start time.

  • Brewery tours & guided tastings for the team
  • Custom catering from the on-site kitchen
  • Lawn games, patios & 7+ acres to spread out

Planning for a group? One on-site team builds the run-of-show with you — menus, pours, tour timing, and setup all handled.

What your ops lead
needs to know.

Buyouts are priced by season and day of week. Weekday retreats often land at the low end of each range — a quiet Wednesday here costs less than a hotel ballroom and looks nothing like one.
