We didn’t have a wedding, but this venue would be great for a reception! Cat was so helpful & easy to work with. All of our guests commented on what a great venue it was.

We had an absolutely horrific experience with Eola Hills at their Legacy Estate property in July. Just weeks before our wedding our Event Coordinator was suddenly fired (due to badmouthing Eola's President) and replaced with someone completely new to the wedding industry. With a background in cosmetology, I believe, Rachel was so ill equipped to manage our big day; though a nice person, my emails were never responded to and when we spoke in person numerous false promises were made. It was 95 degrees on our wedding day and there was no drinking water at the winery. Despite our wishes, our guests were then sat an HOUR before our ceremony, in the direct sun, again with no drinking water. On top of what could've been a very dangerous situation, our friends & family were asked (by the venue) to shuttle our guests to and from the ceremony site. It was completely embarrassing and something our guests still talk about 'til this day. My husband and I spent a majority of our reception apologizing to our guests for the staff's lack of professionalism & disorganization. At the end of the night a number of our guests- who had planned to camp on site, were abrasively told they were not allowed to drive to their campsite (less than a mile away); had we known this was the policy we could've informed our guests ahead of time & also been sure to provide our own drinking water, especially considering some of our guests were apparently over served. Weeks later the venue added glamping to their offerings based on the exact tents & setup we had at our wedding! The Event Coordinator even went so far as to ask our wedding singer to come back and do a summer concert! When I reached out to express my sincere disappointment, I was met with an apology and a $100 gift certificate. As a wedding vendor myself, I am appalled by the entire experience. When I spoke with other Event Coordinator in the industry they too were horrified and said we should've been offered a full refund. DO NOT GO HERE!
