Great spot that our organization uses annually for an HOA meeting. Our only issue is that the restrooms didn't have any toilet paper. We brought paper towels and soap but would suggest any groups to bring toilet paper as well.

The trash receptacle was locked, otherwise the site and experience were great.

Everything was clean, and the area was well-maintained. Up close parking made it easy for all guests to walk to the venue.

This big pavilion is a beautiful, spacious, shady site for a big get-together.

The only thing that was missing was a notice that this was a private event.

The setting was. gorgeous. I had to pick up trash from the fire pit from a previous group. We ran out of toilet paper in one of the restrooms but fortunately brought extra. We couldn’t find a trash can nearby the Ramada but used our own trash bags and walked to the large trash bin.
