My nephew got married to his childhood sweetheart here. A beautiful outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. Very lovely venue with picturesque landscapes. Overall one of the few venues where you get more than you pay for.

The management are so rude. There was no air-conditioning on 97• day. Bride didn't know until that day.Paid so much money had to do clean up. The food was good. We had a great time. But think twice before booking here. I would never recommend this place.
