Cruickston Park is an Ontario-based venue specializing in luxury short-term stays and weddings. Dating back to the mid-19th century, Cruickston Park is one of the oldest estates in its area featuring two venues. Enjoy your wedding day with our English-inspired Gardens or Colonial Stone Cottage.

Facilities and capacity

Cruickston Park offers two wedding venues:

The Trio

The Trio represents The Cottage, The Trapper’s Cabin, and The Stables as a collection: A cluster of Cruickston Park’s historical buildings situated within close walking distance from each other. The houses are surrounded by an elegant stone wall, and subtle landscaping, framed by forest. It makes for an intimate setting for the most celebrated of events, such as a way to enjoy friends and family, ideal for entertaining occasions that require a touch of elegance.

Up to 16 guests can enjoy the convenience of sleeping over, which could be expanded to a total of 26 people when factoring in The Hilltop and Cedar Side Houses.

Whatever the occasion, The Trio provides a private and gilded experience in a natural setting.

The Garden

The garden design swings off the traditional criss-cross pattern from the turn of the century. It is surrounded by two long stone walls and a glass greenhouse. The walls are situated on the north and west sides, creating a microclimate within the garden walls with the stone absorbing and radiating the sun’s heat. The original greenhouse forms part of the existing structure. It was built so that its walls start well below ground level. The building was expanded to include glass enclosures for growing plants from seed. There are remnants of an exterior boiler that had been used to heat and sterilize the soil for seed germination. Also within this complex is an old root cellar which was used to store root vegetables during the cold months. Its interior remains at about 8 degrees year-round.

There are 64 squares within the formal garden that secure the variety of herbs, flowers, vegetables and fruit trees. There are sweet grapes, sedum and lavender planted on the interior of the stone wall. It is a bold design, reminiscent of established European estate gardens, and somewhat unusual for Canada.

Consider the rawness of this setting as an extraordinary backdrop for an extraordinary event of your making. Perfect for a small garden party or wedding ceremony, we can work with your events planner to create a magical experience to take place during the lush months from June to October.
