"Star of 89 is a fresh splash of flavor in a cool Main Street America town. Afton Wyoming and The Great Star Valley never disappoints as a stop on the journey from the south or east for those visiting Yellowstone. Star of 89 has a great little Froyo experience called Swirl and a perfectly curated gift buying experience that truly incorporates boutique gifts that artistically compliment Valley's natural beauty. There is also an outdoor deck in the works and a great little event venue perfect for corporate or private functions."

Bethany and her staff was so very helpful throughout the entire process! We always had access to have her answer our questions and was knowledgeable and flexible with our requests. We had a great time working with them! I highly recommend this venue for any or all your event needs!"
