“Deer lake winery was a cute little venue. people were awesome, the brushetta was delish. I'm not a wine drinker but the blueberry one I enjoyed. We were there with our husbands for a paint n sip, started off with the guys not really grooving with the whole idea but they did by the time we ended. The only feedback I have for them is to have someone in the art area maybe do a small demo to get people started for those who don't normally paint. Otherwise we had fun.”

Our guests enjoyed the space as well- enough comfy seating for everyone to be able to relax and catch up! Darts for people to play. Enough space for some kiddos to move around. Great wine and beers too! Loved all the decor and music as well. Thanks Sally and Staff (If I remember correctly bartenders name was Sandy). :)”
