Our experience at The Grove Country Club was absolutely fantastic. Their communication style was prompt, clear, and incredibly friendly throughout the entire planning process. The value we received was great - the space was warm and welcoming, with fantastic dressing rooms for the bride and groom. Lisa, our event coordinator, was simply the best. She paid attention to every detail prior to and during the event, and the service from the entire staff was second to none. The food was restaurant-quality and the presentation of the meal was truly 5-star. We felt like it was their own wedding with how well they treated us, and the views and use of the golf course for our photos made for a gorgeous backdrop. Lisa was attentive to our every request and last-minute change, and checked in on us throughout the night to ensure everything was perfect. We could not have asked for a better venue and team to host our special day. A truly 5-star event!

The hotel was renovated a few years ago and the rooms, bar/restaurant, and pool areas all still felt newer. Great option if near your venue!
