This place was very nice as well as the people . They responded quickly when we had questions . Everything was well explained and also written down for us to know exactly how things were done when our event was over . Very close to the onterstate so easy to access. Plenty of parking and lots of room to move around . The price is very reasonable and they are quick to return your deposit . We will be using them again for our get togethers and special events . We had our moms 80 surprise party here . Also another thing very nice about this place is no stairs and easy accessible for everyone .

We had 80-100 people for the party and there was definitely enough room . They had tables already set out and we just used them and had to pull out just a couple extra ones . They have a nice size kitchen with lots of items to use if you wanted to . We brought our own stuff from home but used 3 of their roasters . Nice size refrigerator and freezer. Plenty of parking and the people were very nice and quick to respond to our texts . The price was good as well . We will definitely use them again . We really liked that there was no steps for the older ones to have to do .
