What a beautiful and quaint venue with both inside and outside space. Located inside the Rancho San Rafael Park and bordering the Ranch House grounds is the Wilbur D. May Arboretum. There are multiple rooms with a kitchen and bar area. I noticed there was an upstairs available too. I was informed that the venue was inexpensive. If you want to have a sit-down meal the space is limited. The weather was nice which meant a lot of people took advantage and were seated outside in the courtyard. The full house not including the kitchen is $90.00 an hour with a two-hour minimum and a maximum of 150 people along with a $500 cleaning deposit which is refundable.

All the reviews on Yelp are for Rancho, the park, but I don't see much for this space. It's a rad…read morespace, in the park, very unique. You can have the party inside or out. There are multiple rooms inside along with a bar and a kitchen area. They have big refrigerators and a fair amount of space inside the kitchen. The courtyard is shaded and very comfortable, even in the summer. The best part I think is the access to the park. If you guests need to take a breather they can walk a couple of steps and be in the trees. Thumbs Up!

Both of them showed up (right on time!) and were so friendly and professional. They carried everything to the back yard. The equipement was all in good condition and attractive. They both came back the next day on time (texting me first), picked everything up and away they went. Great experience. I will rent with them again and keep watching their website for the further development of their venue, conveniently located next to the Atlantis.

The bar had a decent selection of drinks and was average for this type of spot. The issue I have is the audio quality of the venue. It is poor. There are two flown speakers on either side of the stage, they are directed to the rear of the room. There is nothing to cover the front of the audience. I was up on the railing for the show and I could not hear any vocals from the band. There are wedge monitors directed at the band, but no front fills for the audience. I had a good time, but the audio quaility needs to be improved.

Most recently we visited Toytopia. This exhibit offers the chance to explore a hands-on history of toys from the past and into the future. My kids loved the oversized robotic claw, reminiscent of an amped up arcade machine. It was a blast trying to get the individually articulating fingers to close around the ball in order to lift it into the basket for the big reward. We also enjoyed the oversized battleship game. So fun to play and we spent 20-30 min there. Mr Potato Head was old school fun too. We made a competition out of it to see who could make the wackiest example. I think I won... or maybe my kids let me win. But the favorite had to be the mini arcade they had setup with some of the best old school cabinets. Donkey Kong, DK Jr., Dig Dug and so many more are all here as part of the exhibit and you could spend a long time here without realizing it! Oh and there's even a Zoltar fortune teller too! When you're done at toytopia you can go learn the history of Wilbur D May on the other side of the museum. I personally love exploring the artifacts and treasures he collected from his travels, especially the hunting and fishing trophies! All in all, a great little place to spend a

Despite being a large party, the staff never rushed us, which was much appreciated. Overall, I had a great experience at The Hot Spot. Pricing was fair for what you get and there aren't any sitting fees, which was nice. If you plan on going, call ahead to reserve a table. I can't wait to go back!
