The Depot off Main is a historic train depot that owner David has renovated and turned into an event hall.

He is a truly awesome guy and very easy to work with. The Depot is a gorgeous historic building and you can tell he loves the place.

The only downside is that it's not a massive venue, if you need a huge space.

It was perfect for my party as we had 200 guests come and go over several hours. It seats about 100 comfortably but you might be able to get a bit more.

The greatest thing about the Depot is the price ... and the fact that it includes table and chair rentals.

I wish I had a reason to rent the Depot again .... because it is awesome and so is David!
