Attended a wedding here in late November. The ceremony happened with the overlook behind the couple was quite a sight. The reception area appeared to be decently sized but this happened under COVID so it might be on the smaller size for a normal wedding?There are quite a few areas for some spectacular portrait shots as well.

We attended the insurance Melodies on the Mountain today. It was an awesome program. Cant wait to do more homeschool programs. The park was beautiful and the staff at very helpful.

I went on a field trip with my granddaughters 4th grade class and had a wonderful time. The tour was very engaging and kept their attention while teaching them historical stories of the native Americans who once lived in this region. Well done!

Very nice experience. Lots of interesting history shared by the staff. Magnificent view of Huntsville far below. I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because the follage should be trimmed back better so as not to block the view or crowd walkways. The area around the large Christian cross appears to get no grounds keeper attention. The buildings are well maintained. A wonderful day trip.

Good area to roam around especially if you have kids with you.

Im a little torn on this one. For the price I expected a LOT more. Burritt on the Mountain is a beautiful location. Everyone should see this, especially this time of year. We went for a four course dinner. Schedule conflict and we missed the appetizer. Second course - salad, amazing. Poached pears, pickled red onion, blue cheese, crunchies. Third - beef tenderloin with baby potatoes- eh... Fourth - bread pudding - very rich. Service (volunteers, bless their souls) was not good. Skipped our table twice. No one orchestrated the table service. Again a high price for little return.

I love this place. Take your kids to an event you will not regret it. They offer awesome evening date nights also. Check out the view.

It was a little expensive to get in. The Halloween event was ok but I would have liked to see a few more events going on. There were a few good options for the kids; Making a witches broom a ghost pop out of a coffee filter and a play were the highlights. There werent a lot of Halloween decorations.Hopefully they will make it bigger and better next year.

The most beautiful view I’ve seen thus far living in the area, super well maintained grounds, and a real treat if you get to see the sunset.

A nice museum at the top of Monte Sano (mountain of health) mountain. A mix of new and old building provide two hundred year old history and modern day event facilities. A short drive up the mountain and you feel the cooler air and breeze. You can watch the large birds glide in the up-streams from the mountain side. Burritt Museum provides something for all age groups. This is a little hidden gem on top of the mountain.

I visited here for a wedding, and it was amazing. I didnt get to explore the whole area, but I can definitely recommend it for a wedding venue.

This is a really beautiful and will curated museum. They have great activities for kids and host a variety of events throughout the year including cocktails on the overlook and concerts on the green.

Went to a wedding here, timed perfect with the sunset- gorgeous!

So beautiful up there! Spectacular view!

Beautiful!! The kids loved the Whimsical Woods and exploring the old cabins. Great place for them to burn off some energy!

Beautiful place to go and visit, have wedding and other type of celebration. Staff are friendly and the restrooms are clean and smelling good. They got chicken, roosters, mule and sheepskin.

Beautiful place! Kids had a great time and I really want to go back and try the restaurant.

Great place to go and take the kids. They have really good historical buildings. I actually worked then and replaced the siding recectly. It already looked really good, and now looks much better. They also have tours you can take. They show you how everything was done back in the 1800s. Also having live animals to help preserve how people lived a few hundred years ago. Really good place and neat to visit.

Rhe scenery was beautiful the trails was great.love the cross and Ill be back

Part educational part historical. A fun place to take your kids. Learn what is was like to live in the 1800s.

Great place to visit and lovely staff! My only suggestion is to show more of the mansion.

A very cool place to visit, beautiful overlook, knowledgeable staff, lots of local history.

This place is beautiful. Perfect for a wedding.

Such a fun trip with my 4 year old. The backpack activities were very age appropriate and got him interested and kept his attention. The playground areas, barnyard animals, hike and life size Lincoln logs were his favorite. The museum is interesting for adults and the scenery is great. Prefect family day trip.

The outside area needs to be covered in case it rains. But everything else was perfect.

On a cool night in the middle of a hot summer with a clear skies Eric Essex put on a fantastic memorable show at the city lights and stars.

Wow, is this Huntsville? Went here for one of their City Lights and Stars concerts Friday night. $12 for advance tickets. Beautiful venue for a concert. The view of Huntsville is fantastic during sunset. The tiered lawn nice enabling everyone to have a view of the band. Only complaint is I wish they wouldnt force you to buy their alcohol. It is nice they scheduled food trucks to come up. Will be back.

The fog rolled in then out again. It is interesting in being in a cloud

Amazing place with great mountain overlook. Has a little kids play area as well! Loved this place - it was a little cold and chili when we went there, felt real amazing. Has a nice little gift shop as well

Went there for a friends wedding! Absolutely beautiful view especially during the sunset time! Clean and very well laid out. Perfect areas for pictures!

Loved the mountain has an AMAZING view. Perfect for weddings... the mansion wasn’t what we thought itd be but it was nice. They have a horse and some sheep you can pet. The staff is really friendly and they have a big sandbox for the kids.

Such a PRETTY place! The staff was wonderful and full of knowledge! This was such a great place to visit!

The weather and sunset on The View were great!

It was a great adventure to our weekend!

We loved this place. Gold mountain was fantastic. The interpreters were so nice and helpful. History came alive for us.

Loved my families visit be today at burritt on the mountain. We all enjoyed learning new information listening to Shana.

We just love the People and Music.Also the view so awesome of the Sunset.The staff is the best.

It was spectacular! The drive up was great. The house and grounds were beautiful and so interesting. I wandered around at my own pace. The guide was really good, she knew her history! The view was breath taking!

Very nice and historical place! The view is gorgeous! The mansion is interesting. It is definitely worth the trip up the mountain. Actually, not much of a mountain...

Burritt on the Mountain was an incredible venue for our wedding ceremony and reception. The fall foliage was beautiful and we felt really lucky to have gotten the venue at that time of year. Noel and her team are experts and were always quick with a vendor recommendation or a reply to any question. They also helped coordinate all the vendor setup so we didn’t have to get there early and worry about that. We got married at The View overlook and it was absolutely breathtaking. Our reception was in the Baron Bluff building, which was also very nice and offered lots of wide open space to have plenty of room for everything. We can’t imagine having done this anywhere else. It was perfect. If you’re thinking about getting married there – DO IT!

Love the view activities on Wed nights. Great place.

Very nice view

City Lights concert: beautiful evening, outside, crowd social distancing, cross-over blue grass was actually enjoyable :-)

I want to say I love this place I want to go back when it’s warmer. Our tour guide was the best it was like a live documentary. I absolutely love this place it’s a must see

Never even knew this was here until my employer held our banquet here. We plan to return again because the view is amazing and the museum is interesting and fun.

It was a great experience.My family and I really enjoyed going back in time.Wish we could have seen the whole mansion though

Great music, great views, awesome sunsets, just an all around beautiful place to be for a relaxing evening.

Awesome place for the whole family!

Lovely view of the city and great concerts and folk art lessons.

Well prepared for the folks who gathered up there for sunset tonight.

Great Alabama history. Friendly staff.

Nice place for walking, hiking

A great place to bring children and family. Great views and sights to see as well.

Really interesting museum of the house and working farm. Also a beautiful place for events. Definitely worth a visit if you get a chance.

This is a perfect venue for weddings and large gatherings. The views are gorgeous! The space is arranged in such a way to accommodate large gatherings while maintaining a certain amount of intimacy. The gardens are beautifully maintained and the staff helpful and professional.

We visited Burritt on the Mountain for the first time a few weeks ago and my family and I had a great experience. All the staff was very helpful and friendly. The views were gorgeous and seeing the old buildings was great. Only downside is its a little pricey.

Great nature trails. Majestic natural rock formations.

Wonderful, beautiful place and history

The Folk Art classes are amazing! The Intro Wood Burning class was so fun. Im hooked!

One of the most beautiful wedding venues in Huntsville let alone in Alabama. Noel and her staff answered all of our questions and helped all that they could along the way. Highly recommend.

Really enjoyed this museum. Took the family and spent a few hours doing the self guided tour. A lot history and really liked the houses from 1800s. Did a small hike down the mountain trail to the road and saw tow deer. I would recommend a visit.

Great place to visit and tour. Well maintained. Howard Wheeden exhibit worth the visit alone. Great for kids to see a look at the past.

Used to live in HSV and it had been about 30 since visiting the museum. The additions are great, especially the frontier cabin exhibits.

Very nice staff! Mr Russ was the best!!

A hidden treasure tucked away on the mountain. It might not be seen from the road, but when you arrive, the view is breathtaking! Our 3rd-6th graders went on a field trip here, and they enjoyed it immensely! The tour guides were very accommodating, and the children loved the activities they were involved in during their visit. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience for everyone involved! Dont miss seeing the enormous cross! You have to hike a mile to see it, but its definitely worth it to view this beautiful structure! There is so much history to learn about here, and the tour guides were eager and willing to share it with visitors!

Amazing venue! I enjoyed an evening concert with great foods and drinks available. But that view! Makes the entire experience just that much better. In fact, the view alone would be worth the stop, the music just made the experience that much better.

Great Great piece of Huntsville History. Well worth the trip. Great customer service.

The most beautiful wedding venue imaginable.

Very lovely with beautiful scenery rich with history.

Attended a wedding here. The facility was beautiful. No bugs to deal with and the food was good.

GORGEOUS! Beautiful, well preserved estate & grounds. Knowledgeable staff. Really want to come back for the Cocktails on the View overlooking the city!

Kind and f friendly. My son lost his phone and they found it and called me. Love them

One of the most beautiful event venues I’ve been to!

This was a great stop for our family in Alabama! We were on a road trip and Huntsville happened to be our midway stopping point for the day. I let my 6 year old choose between the Space Museum or the Burritt Mountain and he chose Burritt! It was a hot day (90 degrees +) but other than that, we had a great time and glad we went. The view was great, the mansion was very interesting to see, and the 2 men on the farm were very knowledgeable and friendly. The ladies in the gift shop were also wonderful, gave us other recommendations in the area for kids and meals. And the gift shop had some unique items too! We probably spent 3 hours total at Burritt, and very glad we got to see it! We will definitely recommend to others if Alabama is a place they are headed.

A beautiful location for an event, day or night! They really have a great layout for nearly anything you would need and you cant beat the view!

A delight of a placeVisit here to live the time of 1800s in a mountain of settlers. Wish today’s life could be so simple with produce in the farm, school in same village, small but nice hand-built houses. Must visit if you are in Huntsville.

Beautiful view of the Huntsville skyline from this museum. Lots of old buildings from the 19th century. The staff works hard to gear the exhibits towards the whole family, making it a great place to take kids.

Wonderful place for occasion

Happy fathers day from burrits on the mountain!

My son had his wedding at this site and we could not have had a more beautiful venue! Great veiws over the city and nice areas indoors for food and dancing.

No complaints. Good place to visit with the family. Employees were friendly and knowledgeable.

Beautiful view of the city - informative tour and interesting house and grounds. On a clear day you can see the rocket. Sunset is spectacular. Yearly events are a must-go!

So beautiful on the mountain, day & night. Also good for historical or weddings n a honeymoon

Attended an extremely interesting event with my 11 year old daughter held here at Burritt called Folklike Festival which allows visitors to peer into the lives during the 1800s. They offered several demonstrations, played old folk music with era correct instruments, and provided informative guided tours. It was super cool to see how involved & intrested my daughter was in watching & learning about the old days especially with how some of the kids today seem to think life owes them something instead of working hard for it.If you find this post informative & helps you with your decision to use this establishment, please feel free to give it a thumbs up. Thanks & good luck!

It was extremely interesting. There are some general upkeep type things that would add to the aesthetics. If more folks who live in the area could volunteer and/or donate, perhaps some of those things could be improved upon.

Amazing hidden gem. Glorious view of Huntsville!

This place is gorgeous! It is the perfect wedding/reception location in Huntsville. However, there are no hotels there and you would need to bus your guests from the wedding to the reception and/or the hotel.In the alternative, you can have an alcohol free wedding.

We attended the City Lights Concert Friday night. The In the Mood Band played 40s music and some 50-60s. Weather was beautifully temperate with a cool breeze. We ate our brought in supper as the sun set to great music. This is a very popular venue and Friday was no exception and was in fact, exceptional. One problem is parking. You must arrive very early to park in the mtn. lot. We had to ride in school buses with chairs and coolers,, etc. It is always oversold. My parents in their 80s had to go through this. The evening brightened once we arrived and got settled, but it was a very aggravating way to begin the evening. If you attend, go one and a half hour prior to the start.

We had a great time with our son at the Kris Kringles Cadlelight Christmas event. There was something for everyone; arts and crafts, live music, a blacksmithing exhibit, sheep, great views of Huntsville, and Kris Kringle of course.

Love going for city lights and stars. I always enjoy the gift shop too

Great place to take the kiddos for a fun and learning.

Such a beautiful place, and the staff was knowledgeable and kind. Theres plenty to see, and its not surprising that its a popular place to get married. The old cars and houses are so interesting!

Beautiful view of Huntsville. Ive gone for a couple events and I loved the atmosphere. This is a great venue.

I have lots of fond memories of the Burritt from my childhood - mostly of the amazing views. Lucky for me, one of my best childhood friends even had her wedding here a few years ago, so I got to revisit and relive some of those memories.The Burritt continues to grow and expand. Its now got quite the collection of cabins and side buildings that depict what life was like in the valley and surrounding hills in the early days of Huntsville history. The Burritt also host plenty of historic festivals and special exhibits throughout the year.

Nice view and decent size room for an event if you have about 100 or so

Great place to host outdoor events in the evening in the warm months. Breathtaking views.

Love Burrito on the Mountain. Great Salsa.

I used to visit Burritt on field trips in elementary school and always loved it. And my husband and I recently got married there! Its an absolutely beautiful place for a wedding, with great views of Huntsville and a spacious reception hall. All of the staff and volunteers are very nice and helpful.

The museum alone is worth the trip up and the views are stunning of the history facile valley but todays outing was wonderful. The historical demonstrations they do are well done, the exhibits are good and the reenactora are engaging and knowledgeable. Today we saw sheep shorn, wool cleaned, weaving etc. the children there seemed enthralled and the museum does a great job catering to younger crowds as well as adults. We are members and enjoy Saturdays on the mountain.

Its a beautiful place. There are a lot of different views and things to see. Its well worth a trip
