Recommendations

Great place to have any event! - An Eventective User

My two year olds birthday party was awesome. Enough space to eat and play. The floor we had did have air conditioning.

Great Venue - An Eventective User from Carbondale Il

This was a great venue for the shower we held. Very reasonable in price. Very easy to work with. The Building is beautiful and easy access for older people to get in and out.
