An awesome time was had by everyone from far and near. Mom's 80th birthday party will never be forgotten. If we should choose this area again for an event we will come back here for sure.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Nora. She understands how to develop meaningful relationships with clients and do whatever it takes to accommodate the needs of a diverse group. She was invaluable during our function!

Our wedding was so magical thanks to the Double Tree staff and especially Robi Leach. Robi was so wonderful and answered ALL of my questions quickly and helped with keeping things in line. The quality of service was amazing and I am so thankful we found this venue. Our wedding did not feel like a hotel, but rather like our own private world.
Don't even get me started on the food... it was AMAZING.
Everyone kept remarking how wonderful our wedding was, and it is all thanks to top notch staff at DoubleTree... Thank you :D

We had our wedding and reception in the same ballroom. The staff was great, our wedding coordinator (Cresen) was awesome, and the food was great. All our guests were impressed and many also stayed at this property.

We had our ceremony and reception at this site. It was so great for us, because we had so many guests flying in from out of state. The facility was so convenient for all of them. The space was beautiful and the staff was amazing! All of the staff went above and beyond to help us make the day perfect.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Great people to work with. This venue is a surprise with non-typical spaces that work well with large or small groups. When you drive up the driveway, you will see this is not like any hotel you may have imagined. It is a mansion on a hill with every amenity, including pros to guide you, and flexibility to do it your way.
