This is a beautiful location, they made us feel at home. It is also easy to access but generally it was a beautiful experience

Jonathan was so great to work with! We filmed a music video on his property. Our other location fell through, and Jonathan saved the day and helped us find the perfect filming spots last minute!

We had a fantastic experience shooting at the Barn By The Creek location. Our shoot was 1 day and we had a few different setups to get in the time allotted. This property is loaded with filming/shoot locations and the hosts were great. We also opted for the catered meal for the crew lunch which was reasonably priced and it exceeded out expectations as well. I would highly recommend this location. Be sure to inquire with hosts about all location options on the property. It is a large property and lots of different looks available. Big thanks to the folks at this location.

This was a great location and the owners were extremely helpful! We will definitely plan to shoot here again sometime.

This was the worst experience I've ever had with Avvay.

After accepting the reservation & after the deposit was paid, Jonathan contacted me saying I needed to fill out a form via a different website. I did, and there were additional charges that are not listed on the Avvay site including an hourly charge for him to be on-site (he left during our shoot, but charged us for the full duration anyway). He later texted me, asking for a photo of my credit card in order to pay an additional deposit. A little suspect to ask someone to give you their full credit card details via text. I told him I wasn't comfortable with sending him a photo so he allowed me to call him to give him the numbers - which he repeated aloud on the phone - I could hear he was in an area full of people. He then ran the card for the full amount of the deposit $2000.

His communications were erratic and it seemed he didn't know what event he was speaking to. He confused our shoot with other events. TAKE CAUTION!

WARNING: HIDDEN FEES!! Jonathan O. was extremely misleading and a total nightmare to book with. After paying him for the full hourly rate, he gave me his word we were squared away… well he had me fill out a form saying it would be $2000 if there were damages, tried to charge me $30/hr for him to stand there with my crew (I kindly refused), $10/hr for every extra person outside of what we agreed upon, and after asking him about the fees he simply got upset at my questions, hung up and canceled my reservation. Took me a week to get my money back in full, and the location I ended up going with was so much more accomodating and upfront. I was appalled by the unprofessional communication, as I usually have no problems in these scenarios. Only after I threatened with legal action did he respond and send my money back. Stay away from this place if you are not prepared for the predatory fees. Total mess !!!!!

My first time using AVVAY. We had a great photo shoot. The area was perfect for us.

If you are reading this, please do not book this location. I complied to all of Jonathan's rules, but when I asked a simple question about parking, he freaked out saying we were no longer allowed to come 12 hours before our production. If I didn't agree to a $5,000 security deposit, I wouldn't have been able to host my nearly $80k commercial shoot. He is beyond rude and lacks basic customer service required to be a host. Not to mention, the barn is disgusting and filled with tons of poop. Thank god for his angelic assistant, Lilian who helped me on the day since there was no way he was going to. She shared with me that I'm not the first person he's done this to and I'm sure I will not be the last. Save yourself and look elsewhere.
