Magical Day

My husband and I got married at the Refuge Golf Club 10/11/2024. We could not have picked a better venue for our day! The entire staff is amazing, helpful, and kind. We had the pleasure of working with Lisa who is absolutely amazing, and willing to help whenever we needed her!

Not only did my husband and I have a great night, our guests did too. We can’t thank The Refuge Golf Club enough for making this day something we will never forget!

Love,
The Kerschner’s

The Refuge Golf Club provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. From the beautiful venue to the attentive service, our wedding was truly unforgettable. The communication throughout the planning process was seamless, making everything run smoothly.

The staff at The Refuge Golf Club went above and beyond to ensure that everyone was well taken care of, adding to the overall experience.

Overall, we highly recommend The Refuge Golf Club to any couple looking for a beautiful venue with excellent service and delicious food. Our wedding day was everything we hoped for and more, thanks to the wonderful team at The Refuge Golf Club.

We loved The Refuge! We worked with Lisa and she was able to help us with anything we needed and answer all our questions in a timely fashion.

The most special day and planning experience

Lisa was so helpful and made the experience wonderful. From the tour of the venue to the big day, she was there for any questions and to help in any way! The venue catering staff were also amazing. We had so many compliments on the food, and service. It was an easy choice of venue, a great package deal, and honesty on what prices are and creating a unique package specific to your wants and needs for your special day. The Refuge also shares recommendations for other vendors they've worked with in the past, we used a couple of them which made the process so easy. Again, Lisa was amazing along with the catering staff. Can't say enough good things, and wish we could have a replay of our special day!

Excellent Service

This is an amazing venue! They worked with us through COVID planning and rescheduling. They were responsive with some last minute changes and throughout the planning process with questions we had. We had the rehearsal dinner at the venue and it went so well. The food was great; the ceremony location was set up in advance. The wedding coordinator is fantastic. She made it so easy for us to just enjoy our big day instead of having to think about or consider little details. The venue has a bridal suite that was available for getting ready in the morning. It was able to comfortably fit 10 of us (including hair stylist and make up artist). The venue is able to rent some decorations, which made it even easier to have the reception hall look stunning. The staff were considerate and friendly. The bar tender was friendly and charismatic. The food was amazing as was the dessert. 10 out of 10 would recommend this venue.

Great venue!

The Refuge Golf Club was a beautiful venue. The staff/coordinator was very helpful through the planning process. The food was absolutely amazing. We had nothing but compliments. Food service was fast and efficient. Overall, had we needed to do this again we would without a doubt go to the Refuge again.

Would 100% recommend, gorgeous venue

I would 100% recommend The Refuge for your wedding venue. They are extremely affordable and the venue is stunning. We got married on 12/29/18 and received discounts for getting married off season. We paid for our wedding ourselves and had a strict budget and The Refuge worked with us to create a pizza/pasta/salad buffet for our guests and it was a hit! Our 11th table to get food stated their plates were filled with hot food. We got so many compliments on the food and man, was it affordable. Christa is their wedding coordinator and so helpful. She answered all questions promptly and was just so great throughout the planning process and day of. The venue staff is amazing and I just can't give them enough praise. We were able to clean up the next day as well, since there were no events that Sunday. Keep in mind, we got married in the winter so this will likely not be possible for someone getting married peak season
