Review from recent event held at Newell Pioneer Village: “Our event at the Newell House was great. Everyone thought Ashley was wonderful and found the tour very interesting. I found our interactions leading up to the event to be very positive and helpful. We kept having to up the numbers but you were able to make the necessary adjustments and even make a special trip in to change the arrangement. I also would recommend the caterers in case anyone ever asks you about caterers in the area. The food was excellent and the staff was very pleasant and efficient. Again thank you for allowing us to rent the log cabin and making everything so easy. Dennis”
