We ask that all groups observe "quiet hours" starting at 10pm every night to avoid disturbing neighbors. Please note that illegal drug use and/or commercial sex acts are not allowed on the premise. We encourage you to leave your firearms at home. Should you choose to travel with firearms, please do not leave them at the property. We cannot believe we have to add these additional policies, but all rules are here because someone has done all of these things :)

Note about weddings and special events/parties: While we are flattered that you think Stonecote would make a great venue for your wedding, rehearsal dinner, wedding brunch, bridal shower or special event, the property is not set up to accommodate these parties due to neighborhood and car restrictions. Unfortunately, we are no longer able to rent to bridal parties, bachelor or bachelorette parties.
