"I recently attended a Christmas Party at Garther on 89, catered by Sandie Truchot, and it was a truly fantastic experience! The venue itself is beautifully designed, providing the perfect festive atmosphere for the event. The space was comfortable, elegant, and well-suited to the group. The food, prepared by Sandie and her team was absolutely fabulous! Every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. I highly recommend Garther on 89 and Sandie Truchot for any event — you won’t be disappointed!"

"We had a wonderful time: great food, entertainment, dancing, and plain old fun. This venue is upscale without being pretentious, with a great community feel. I look forward to "gathering" at their next event."

"These lofts are excellent. Best place to stay in Afton. Very clean, great parking, easy to communicate with hosts. Completely updated condos have everything you need and right downtown so walking distance from anything else. Lots of restaurants close including a great gift shop and killer ice cream place right below you. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Afton."
