We enjoyed working with Jordan. The space was exactly as described, clean, and large enough to host our 100 person engagement party. Jordan was great to work with, his response time was always excellent and he was always available to answer our questions and tend to any needs regarding the booking. I would 100% recommend this booking!

The deck space was a beautiful venue for my daughter's Sweet 16 birthday party. Anna was very responsive and easy to reach to work out details of the event. She has all that you would need to set up for a party...tables, chairs, sound system. We were able to decorate to fit the theme. The venue was clean, private, and perfect for our event! We wouldn't hesitate to have another event in this location. Thank you, Anna, for all that you did to make this evening so special!

This space was so gorgeous. More than I expected and so clean. Everything was easy, from booking to accessing the place and everything in it. All of my guests loved the space and instantly said it the moment they walked in. I will be definitely book this place again for more events in the future. The only thing I would say was a bit of a hassle was the projector, since it’s on a program, it was a little bit more difficult to set up for my iPad but we figured it out after awhile.
