A place where love stories begin, memories are made, and connections run deep.
We’re Ned and Sam, the proud owners of this beautiful property tucked away in the heart of nature. From the moment we first drove through the gates back in 2022, we knew this place was something truly special. The charm of the original 130-year-old homesteads, the timeless elegance of the old stone barn, and the peaceful beauty of the grounds – it all captured our hearts, and we knew we had found somewhere magical.
Our dream was simple: to create a space where couples could celebrate their love surrounded by the people who matter most. A place that feels welcoming, warm, and full of heart – just like home.
At Frog Hollow Estate, we believe in the power of genuine connections. Whether it’s the bond between two people starting their life together or the friendships formed in unexpected moments, this land has a way of bringing people together.
We’re so excited to welcome you to the place we fell in love with – and we hope it becomes a part of your love story too.
With love,
Ned & Sam
