Chateau Morrisette Celebrates Labor Day Weekend with Live Music, Movies and More

Wrap up the summer at Chateau Morrisette with their Friday Night Live, Cinema on the Lawn and Labor Day Monday events coming up on September 2, 3rd and 5th, respectively. Chateau Morisette is located in nearby Floyd and is convenient to all Smith Mountain Lake Residents, offering spectacular mountain views and regular fun-filled events for all tastes.

If you’re in the mood for a more rambunctious good time, live entertainment and fun, upbeat music, Friday Night Live features Southern Remedy from 6-9 p.m. Southern Remedy is a returning band that performs classic rock music, and while you listen you can dine from the outdoor grill, drink wine and dance with friends. Tickets cost only $8 apiece and you must bring your own seating. This event will continue rain or shine.

Next on the agenda for the weekend is the Cinema on the Lawn event. This is a more relaxing event for those who would like to curl up in a lawn chair and watch the sun set and have some delightful cinematic entertainment to round out their weekend. The Hitchcock classic “Dial M for Murder” will be shown and wine and food will be sold separately at the event. You must bring your own seating and blankets and picnics, coolers or outside food and drinks are not permitted. Tickets are $5, much less expensive than your average movie and with scenic sights surrounding you as the movie lights up the silver screen.

Finally, come celebrate your Labor Day Monday at the winery and join them for lunch followed by a tasting and tour. The restaurant will be open on Monday from 11 am to 2 pm and the winery hours are from 10 am to 5 pm. Take this opportunity to relax and enjoy some delicious beverages and food and pamper yourself a bit on your day off!

Chateau Morrisette would like to offer you a wonderfully relaxing weekend with their 3-day lineup of exciting events so close by to Smith Mountain Lake. If you haven’t visited the winery before, take your chance now in the midst of so many wonderful activities!

End of Summer Fun in Bedford!

Fall is spectacular at Smith Mountain Lake! The beautiful color of the leaves, fall crush in full swing, and crisp air are all welcome signs that fall is here! As much as we love fall, there is some part of us that doesn’t want to quite let go of summer. So how can we resolve this conflict of emotion? Well, an End of Summer Party should do the trick!!

The Bedford Chamber of Commerce is hosting the 2009 Beach Bash at Parkway Marina in Huddleston! On August 22 from 4 pm to 9pm, you can enjoy local wines and microbrewed beers! There will not be any shortage of summer time fun!! Tickets can be bought online or from many local businesses. Advance tickets are $15 and are $20 at the gate. Don’t forget to bring your ID so you can enjoy all the local wines and beers!

Hickory Hill Vineyards and Winery, Peaks of Otter Winery, and White Rock Vineyards are just a few of the local wineries that will have tastings available, as well as wine for sale! The Chamber even has “Woozies” too, if you need one for your favorite glass of wine!! There will also be Microbrew available! Jefferson Street Brewery and Woodchuck Draft Hard Cider will both have their wares available at the party this weekend.

Only one thing is missing…music!! But have no fear, the Bedford Chamber of Commerce has it covered! Part Time Party Band will provide music for the evening. There will also be various food vendors at the Party too! Looks like everything is covered for friends, music, wine and fun!!

So don’t miss the 2009 Beach Bash at Parkway Marina this weekend! Don’t forget that the Savoy-Lee, another fine SML winery that happens to be for sale, is always open for tastings too. Come visit us here at Smith Mountain Lake, and if you like it then move here! If you are thinking you don’t want to miss any of the spectacular seasons at Smith Mountain Lake, call Vicki Millehan, you local real estate expert! She can help you find a Lakeside Home where you can enjoy all the beauty of the area from your own back deck!!
