How The Manor Country Home at The Mohicans Becomes Your Wedding Party's Private Retreat
When your closest family and friends travel to The Mohicans for your Grand Barn wedding, you want them to have more than just a place to sleep. The Manor, a fully remodeled 1800s country home located 2.6 miles from the resort, offers your wedding party a private retreat that feels like a magazine-worthy escape.
With three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and elegant design touches like a stone fireplace and custom concrete-and-walnut dining table, this off-site lodging option gives your inner circle a luxurious home base for the entire wedding weekend.
What Makes The Manor Different from On-Site Treehouses and Cabins
The Manor stands apart from the resort's treehouse and cabin inventory in both style and setting. Originally built in the 1800s, this country home has been fully remodeled to blend historic character with contemporary comfort. Walk through the front door and you'll find barn wood accents throughout the interior, a stone fireplace that anchors the main living space, and a custom concrete-and-walnut dining table that seats your entire group for morning coffee or late-night conversations.
Unlike the rustic charm of treehouses or the cozy cabin aesthetic, The Manor delivers a refined, sophisticated atmosphere. Your parents, siblings, or closest friends get central air conditioning, heat, and reliable satellite Wi-Fi. Three bedrooms and three full bathrooms mean no one's waiting in line for the shower on wedding morning, and the home sleeps up to eight guests comfortably.
Why Wedding Parties Choose Off-Site Lodging at The Mohicans
Some couples assume everyone should stay in treehouses or cabins on the main property, but there are practical reasons to book The Manor for your closest people. The 2.6-mile distance means your wedding party can escape if they need a quiet moment away from other guests, and it provides a home base for getting ready on wedding morning without feeling rushed by venue timelines.
Parents particularly appreciate The Manor's setup. They get a full kitchen, multiple bathrooms, and enough space to host a small family breakfast before everyone heads to The Grand Barn. Your siblings or wedding party can use the dining table for final preparations, last-minute gift wrapping, or simply gathering without the constraints of a treehouse or cabin layout.
A Magazine-Worthy Property for Your Closest People
The Mohicans describes The Manor as a magazine-worthy property, and the combination of 1800s architecture, thoughtful remodeling, and design details creates a space that photographs beautifully. The barn wood accents and historic bones of the building provide texture and character that newer construction can't replicate.
While The Grand Barn includes three party suites with beauty bars for getting ready on wedding day, some couples prefer to have their wedding party start the morning at The Manor. The home's layout accommodates hair and makeup teams if you want your closest people to begin preparations together in a more intimate setting, and the three full bathrooms mean multiple people can shower and get ready simultaneously.
Important Details Your Wedding Party Should Know
The Manor does not allow pets, so if your wedding party includes dog owners, they'll need to make other arrangements. Like many properties in the Mohican Valley, The Manor relies on satellite internet rather than cable or fiber connections. Your wedding party will have Wi-Fi access for checking emails or posting photos, but speeds won't match what they're used to in Columbus or Cleveland suburbs.
Wedding guests at The Mohicans can check in at 2pm and checkout is at 10am. The resort does not allow check-ins after 11pm at any property, including The Manor, so coordinate travel times carefully. The 2.6-mile distance takes about five minutes by car, but four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicles are strongly recommended, especially for early and late season weddings.
