Areli Married on 08/29/2021Nice place
a good place, the food is excellent, the staff are very friendly, it is a good place for weddings with children as they have a play area. The only thing I did not like is that it was 10 at night and the police even said to turn down the music because the neighbors complained but it is a golf club there are no houses nearby -
Beth Married on 09/30/2017There are not enough positive things that we can say about Janet and Ed from Philmont Country Club. We saw a few wedding venues prior to the Philmont and I sincerely wish we looked at Philmont first! They were so informative, detail-oriented and experienced that I walked away from the initial meeting with no questions. They truly left us speechless. The service the Philmont provided throughout the wedding planning process was absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with our venue. It was very evident that Janet and Ed absolutely love their job, knows what they are doing. They provided us with a sense of ease and comfort, which made it easy for us to trust that our wedding day would be absolutely beautiful. In addition to the incredible service, the country club offered beautiful decor and the perfect spaces for the bridal parties to get ready. It was so nice to have a place to get ready prior to the ceremony. The ceremony site and grounds of the country club, especially in September, were absolutely stunning. Inside, the ballroom was spacious, but also provided an intimate and comfortable setting . We also received many compliments from our guests about how delicious the food was and how the dance floor was the perfect size! We cannot thank Philmont Country Club enough for all they've done to make it an incredible experience for us. We HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend them to anyone interested in a venue that is beautiful and has an amazing and hard-working group of staff members!
