I had the unfortunate experience of losing my father February 19th of this year. I knew that I…read morewanted to do something special after his service to celebrate his life. I wanted to allow our friends and family time to talk about the meaningful times that we were lucky enough to spend with a man that meant so much to so many. Since I live in Portland, I knew it would be challenging to find a space online. I grew up in Olympia, and it has changed a lot. I found somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 possibilities. When I stumbled across the website for the Abigail Stuart House, it just felt right. I called Carolyn, who rents the house and found out that it was available for the 26th when I needed it. We scheduled a tour for the Friday prior. Perfect. The rental included tables, chairs, a very roomy full kitchen with all kinds of serving trays and cooking utensils, an oven, dishwasher, and refrigerator. Most places didn't have such a full set up. For the most part things have to be rented separately. The only thing we needed to provide were tablecloths. Easy. Since it's an historic property it has a lot of charm. High ceilings, hardwood floors, a foyer with space to hang coats, a parlor with comfortable sofas and cushy chairs. The parlor also has a baby grand piano, and gas fireplace. There is a bathroom on the main floor, as well as a men's and women's restroom upstairs. There is room to accommodate up to 150 in the main room. Plenty of space for everyone. Carolyn gave me the tour, and I paid on the spot. They only charge $400 all inclusive for the full day and night, with a $250 refundable deposit. You don't even have to clean. We only needed to put away the tables and chairs, and place anything from the kitchen that we used in the dishwasher before we left. It wasn't rented Saturday, so she was kind enough offer it to me for an additional $100 so that I could set up beforehand. I was so grateful to have the opportunity to do so. I don't think you can find such an affordable deal anywhere! They're incredibly easy to work with. It's centrally located downtown, and has a parking lot to accommodate 22 cars. There is also ample street parking. It would be ideal for wedding receptions, reunions, or about anything else you might need. I was able to pick up my full deposit the following Tuesday morning. I can't recommend them highly enough. Take a look at their website, and see for yourself. The money from the rental also benefits many local charities, as an added bonus.

She promptly answered questions and communicated directly with my venue so I didn't have to be the middle man. The person also setting up the play area for the kids was extremely professional and friendly. We got the "Nude Only Soft Play" and it was such a hit for the toddlers and even older kids! The ball pit, slide and soft blocks was all played with by the kids, even my one year old enjoyed himself immensely. Overall, Nicole and her team helped make my baby's birthday party a hit! Highly recommend! Would use their services again!

I go to the lake close to the half way mark and can hear the activity further up to the camp. I find it nice and reassuring. It's nice to see and hear the lake being used by so many different people and in so many different ways. I had asked for a tour of the retreat awhile back and was blessed with a wonderful tour and explanation of how the retreat works. The retreat grounds are open to groups of people with a reservation. Like I said above all meals are prepared for the campers on the grounds. There are nice big clean and spacious community buildings. One of these has a large fireplace in it. Also there is a beautiful handmade quilt hanging in that room. There's an outside area with tables seats cement on the ground and an overhead that is pretty permanent for eating outside or gathering for other reasons. The campers have cabins to stay in. I didn't get to see the cabins so I cannot say much about them. For the most part I was able to get around the tour using my power chair. The grounds is mostly rocky so getting around in my chair can pose a problem. I enjoy hearing the campers sing by the lake. What a treat!!

It wasn't a far walk and I'm sure he didn't pick everyone up, but what a cool gesture. The dining room has large window to almost floor windows so there's tons of light and a nice view of the golf greens. The bar was set up outside of the event room and it was perfect. They set up the buffet in the outside hall and had it go one way, so I liked how the staff knew how to optimize the space. Before thhe event they had a tray pass. Only two items, but when we saw the buffet I'm glad we didn't fill up on the cream cheese stuffed peppers and the crab filled mushroom appetizers. The restrooms were clean and they had them located on both sides. This was a great space to hold an event, so I'm glad to have that on my list for the future.
