“Mainframe Studios is great to meet a variety of inspired artists, who work in a building at their disposal. They have lots of opportunities to interact and inspire each other and meet the public.
Wonderful to visit and purchase their art!”

“Went here to see 'Who's Live' and had great seats. This smaller venue gives good seats to pretty much everyone. We sat a few rows in on the balcony and could see the stage very clearly. When they had an audio issue, we could still hear the actors. The location and access to the woman's bathroom was a little annoying but workable. The temperature of the building was a little high but acceptable. Overall, a good experience.#OwlsTweet #BirdLife #worldtraveler #traveler @MeetMrOwl”

We recently attended Sunday Blues, a series featuring a fantastic live band every Sunday. There is ample seating throughout.

“Stopped in on a rainy afternoon for a tasting. The employees were super friendly and chatty and helpful. The seating area is very empty and bland and obviously used for events - would be nice to have something with a bit more personality for those coming for tastings. The outdoor seating areas would be lovely in dry weather. They were setting up for a concert series with food vendors and it looked like a great crowd was gathering. We had other plans otherwise it would have been fun to stay.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding than Rollins Mansion! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were captivated by the stunning architecture and enchanting ambiance. The mansion’s charm and elegance provided a beautiful backdrop for our special day.

The staff was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and truly dedicated to making our vision come to life. They guided us through the planning process with ease and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day of the event - specifically, Brianna and Jacky. Their attention to detail was remarkable, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about making our experience unforgettable.

We feel so grateful to have celebrated our love at Rollins Mansion. It will always hold a special place in our hearts. Highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a magical setting for their wedding!”

My husband and I had the extreme pleasure of hiring Anthony and and the use of The Conservatory as our venue. It was beyond perfect and accommodating to what we had in mind. The venue is beautiful and well kept. There were no issues the entire time. The entire staff was so nice and professional. Thank you so much for making our wedding everything we could have hoped for and more. Will recommend to any couple looking for the perfect place for their day!”

“Great event space but,if you're hosting, be aware the signage is far from adequate. It appears it was put up by someone that knew the way around instead of an outsider.”

“(Translated by Google) We were at a party in this small room but it has good acoustics and although it is small it is a very good size for a family party. Just need a place to park(Original)Estuvimos en una fiesta en este salón pequeño pero tiene buena acústica y aunque es pequeño es muy buen tamaño para fiesta familiar. Solo falta lugar para estacionarse”

“The room was beautiful! We had a huge bed and a corner sofa, which was perfect. Also, the shower was AMAZING.

I also want to highlight the front desk staff. They were wonderful and very helpful. Every question i had was answered quickly, and when I wad accidentally double charged, the issue was fixed with 1 phone call.

Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
