Rust Manor House and Nature Sanctuary

We had our Indian baby shower here a few weeks ago and we couldn’t have made a better choice. We had 60 family member guests so we couldn’t do something more low key at home. The venue is gorgeous, a historic home that is well maintained by NoVa Parks and the grounds are beautiful. They also have a permanent tent structure outside for larger events. The staff, Paul and Jackie, were so accommodating, friendly, and gracious. It was very different from where we had our wedding years. That venue will remain nameless but it was a bed and breakfast in Middleburg. Rain threatened our special day and fortunately held off but the staff was prepared for indoor or outdoor ceremony. We had our own caterer because we needed Indian food and that also worked out well. The amenities they provide are excellent. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a venue for their special event to check out Rust Manor. With the beautiful natural setting, classy indoor facility, and excellent customer service by staff, you won’t regret your decision!

This place is an amazing hidden gem and the perfect spot for a wedding or something of the sort. They have a great indoor and outdoor spaces as well as lawn games and a great staff.

Came here for a friend’s wedding ceremony and reception. Absolutely beautiful house and grounds. The ceremony was held right in front of the house, cocktail hour was in the actual house, and the reception was in a tent next to the house. During cocktail hour excellent food was served and the couple chose to have beer and wine only. The food during the reception was excellent as well. Overall extremely nice venue. I do not know the price but since its Northern VA I’m guessing this place is not cheap. I would recommend it to have an event here though.
Took away a star. The staff could have been more friendly. They kept taking our drinks that we placed on tables before we were even half way finished with them which was odd.

Absolutely beautiful! We had a family photo session at the Manor House and grounds. The staff was wonderfully accomodating, and the setting was so pretty!

Beautiful place. My wife found it in search of a hiking venue for us and our dog after taking care of errands in the area. Near the parking area, there is the Manor, a large tent for receptions, etc., and a small structure with info about the area. The map I posted was taken from a post board right by the parking lot. We had a great time on our short late afternoon hike and look forward to the next time we can enjoy the well maintained trails through meadows and quaint forested areas.

we enjoy the free events.

We attended a wedding and reception here in early June for my wife’s cousin. Parking is minimal so I was glad to arrive via shuttle bus from the hotel. The natural outdoor setting was quite beautiful apart from the 86 degree temperature for this semi-​formal event. It was an inter-​faith ceremony which made it all the more intriguing. The catered reception afterward was awesome with delicious food and dancing. A good time was had by all!
