Chattahoochee Nature Center Reviews

Loved the natural beauty of this venue. We did a minimal amount of decorating for the engagement party because the setting was perfect. The open air pavilion has some cafe lights to provide mood lighting. The stone fireplace is a nice feature in the space too. Nonprofessional photos.

This venue is a hidden gem, offering a high value.

The Ben Brady Pavilion is a lovely space to hold an event. The large pavilion is mostly covered and sits right on the water. As night falls, the strung cafe lights add ambiance and charm. There is even a huge hearth and fire place for cooler evenings. The spacious green lawn adjacent to the pavilion is great for overflow for larger parties. The pavilion comes equipped with a large catering kitchen and well maintained restrooms. The staff at CNC are responsive, helpful and kind. You can tell they love what they do and are proud of where they work.

From initial communication to all the details coming to fruition, the event team at the Chattahoochee Nature Center was incredible. The space was beautiful and the customer service impeccable. We are so grateful and thankful to CNC for helping us kick off our school year with intention and inspiration!

My fiancé and I were originally scheduled to be married on September 25, 2020, with 80% of our guests traveling to from NY to GA. Due to the current health risk we are all facing and NY especially we didn't feel safe to continue with our plans so we made the heartbreaking decision to postpone after over a year of planning.

Andrea and the Chattahoochee Nature Center did not blink an eye to assist with finding us a new date and postponing with no charge or penalty. We are so grateful for Andrea and the CNC for being so accommodating during this difficult time. Not only is the venue beautiful but the caring they show towards their clients goes above and beyond!

Our Wedding was amazing!!
I cannot express enough how Andrea and her staff at the Chattahoochee Nature Center (CNC) made our wedding the most special day! After having to postpone from September 2020 due to COVID, Andrea worked with us every step up-to and during our big day. The staff at CNC were attentive and welcoming to us and all our guests.
The CNC is such a beautiful place, and I would recommend this venue to anyone that wants a private, elegant venue for their special day. The pavilion at night overlooking the river is breathtaking. Also, a bonus is that we can visit the CNC any time we want to literally walk down memory lane of our extraordinary day! Thank you, Andrea and the CNC staff, for the perfect day!

The Georgia Daffodil Society has found this venue to be a good size to have our Georgia Daffodil show each year. They are very accommodating for showing our daffodils with the setup we need for showing our daffodils and designs. Parking is accessible for hauling in our paraphernalia.

The Outdoor Pavilion is an absolutely beautiful facility! My yoga community is practicing outside now and we truly appreciate the natural beauty of the land, lake and nature sounds during yoga classes. The structure of the Pavilion is architecturally stunning with an outdoor fireplace, sound system and restrooms on premise. Everything is clean and the staff is very supportive and accessible.

We knew that the CNC was the perfect place for our wedding , the first time we visited! Tucked back in over hundred acres of nature, the pavilion and ceremony site is breathtaking. Even during these unprecedented times of COVID, our event coordinator, Andrea, has been extremely responsive and proactive. I feel for those who have had to reschedule their weddings due to the pandemic, but if anyone is looking for a new venue -- I absolutely recommend the CNC. An absolutely wonderful experience thus far.

We hold our 8th grade graduation every year at the Ben Brady Pavilion, and we love it! The staff is so friendly and helpful! It is such a pleasant experience working with them.

The Chattahoochee Nature Center is one of Southern Crust's favorite venues. We love the relaxed nature of weddings there; it's the perfect complement to our '53 Chevy truck and our amazingly delicious pizza.

Your photos will blow you away. The beautiful grounds, the pavilion with its draping all lite up after the sun goes down. Having your first dance under the stars.

We had a wonderful experience with Andrea guiding us through planning & the wedding day. Her suggestion to contact Roswell’s Ted Basco made it very easy to plan the best hotel for our out of town guests. Andrea was very professional & always positive during the challenge of navigating through a year with Covid. Although we had correct spacing for guests, it did not feel awkward. It was a beautiful night & the pavilion was beautiful with lighting. The staff made sure guests were guided from wedding to reception. We appreciated everything and were glad to discover that Andrea & other staff were already well known for their excellent event management! We met the couple who had their wedding the night before & they told us they had a good experience too.

Beautiful, classy and fun. That's how guests described our wedding at the Chattahoochee Nature Center. In the middle of a pandemic we were able to host an outdoor wedding that will be talked about for years to come. On a 127-acre nature preserve, the Chattahoochee Nature Center offered us the privacy and flexibility we needed to host an intimate wedding outdoors. The venue could not have been more beautiful and Fabiola, Andrea and the rest of the crew were knowledgeable, helpful, thoughtful, sweet and just a great group of people to work with. We could not have asked for a better location, or a better staff to make our dream wedding come true.

Thanks to Andrea and the attentive team at the Chattahoochee nature Center in Roswell Georgia my family had a beautiful couples bridal shower 8/30/2020 under the lights of the Ben Brady Pavilion. Her attention to detail and the beauty of the outdoor venue enabled us to host a safe, fun and loving celebration for the couple and family of all ages. Highly recommend this venue for any occasion!

A big thanks to The chattahoochee nature center for making it possible to hold our celebration. With the many concerns these days I thought once again this would end up being another cancellation and disappointment. With this being a an outdoor environment and the help of Andrea and Fabiola we were able to pull it off without a hitch ! Plenty of room under the pavilion and lawn to spread out and consistent cleaning and Nice reminders to guests to not have too many congregate in one place. For a late July evening the temperature was very pleasant too !
You have to go see the venue it’s not your typical Pavilion. The lighting and draping made for a spectacular evening ! Thanks again for a great time !

The Chattahoochee Nature center is absolutely beautiful! It's affordable, the staff are amazing, and you couldn't ask for a more gorgeous venue near Atlanta. I'd get married there over and over if I could!

Great location for an outdoor party! The staff was very helpful and easy to work with. Everything went off without a hitch.

I am a wedding photographer, and I just had the privilege to photograph a wedding at the Chattahoochee Nature Center. I was blown away by the natural beauty when I first visited the venue with my couple to do their engagement photos there! Not only is it a gorgeous place to get married, but the center's staff (particularly Andrea) really go out of their way to make the day PERFECT for their clients! I had such a wonderful experience working with them! I highly recommend them as the perfect place to get married!

Unfortunately we had to cancel our wedding due to COVID, but up until that point and even after we have continued to receive excellent service. Andrea was such a pleasure to work with and helped us with every detail. For someone who didn't know what they were doing and didn't have a wedding planner, she made the process easy and guided me through it. I highly recommend this beautiful venue! -Allie and Andrew

The Ben Brady Pavilion is a unique and scenic venue which is ideal for hosting events outdoors. The accessibility and comfortable amenities (clean bathrooms and a catering kitchen) provide support for private events. They have plenty of chairs, tables and linens as well. Views of the water and the cozy fireplace add such charm. No matter what the occasion, this is an ideal location to host any private event. The staff work hard to insure a successful event. We appreciated their efforts!

Our client could not have been happier with the space, staff, set up, etc. We are already reaching out to them again for more dates! planning to work with the CNC again soon, which is the best compliment anyone could ask for!

This is the most beautiful venue... I was so happy with how my wedding turned out here! The property is very large and there are several sites to choose from. We had our ceremony in the meadow and the reception at the pavilion on the lake. The entire property is so peaceful.

The venue coordinator, Andrea, was fantastic and very easy to work with. The whole staff was very welcoming.

The only thing I did not love is that there is only one alcohol / bar company you can use here and I was not thrilled with them.

Overall, we are very happy with our wedding experience here and would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have a beautiful outdoor wedding!

This location was perfect for us - we loved the ability to have a secluded ceremony and reception all at one place! Guests raved about how beautiful the Pavilion was at night too! Thank you so much to the CNC staff and volunteers for making our day run so smoothly - heat and all! Our wedding had a 'threat' of rain and Andrea helped us find a tent. We ended up lucking out, but the tent overlooking the lake ended up being absolutely stunning!

I am very pleased with my experience at the Chattahoochee Nature Center. Robin was a delight to plan and work with. She walked around the entire property to show us every possible ceremony site for our small and private wedding. I loved her ideas and am very happy with the one we settled on. My fiance and I did a walk through two weeks before our wedding to make sure everything was in place. She was extremely responsive to email and even did a separate walk through with my photographer the week of our wedding.

We recently filmed a small wedding at Chattahoochee that had been adjusted due to Covid. The outdoor locations were safe and beautiful, and there were many gorgeous backdrops for photos. As a videography team, we'd love to work there again and would absolutely recommend it to clients in the future!
