I've been to the Heritage House as a guest/attendee a few times - for events both grand and simple…read more- and nothing ever seemed out of place. Easy to find heading east from the interstate on Plaza Drive / Hwy 150, less than a mile after the bend and set back a little from the street. Big fountain up front (which may or may not be gurgling) and plenty of parking in a lot shared with the funeral home around back. The facility itself is clean, simple, and medium fancy; suitable for quiet dignified affairs but easily dressed up for elegance or extravagance and there's a patio around the fountain if the weather is agreeable, also has a large canopied entrance fronting a foyer if the weather turns foul. The kitchen is equipped with coolers, heaters, ice machine and dish washer to handle your food service needs. Last time in was for an anniversary party seating 100+ people plus a two-line buffet with space enough for dancing and cavorting into the evening. I can't say as how I cared much for the music selection but that's more on the hostess than the facility.

We live in the Charlotte area and needed a venue for our Wedding Ceremony and Reception. We were…read morelooking for an Elegant venue to accommodate our over 150 guests for a reasonable rate. We found The Heritage House via google. Our first contact was with a very pleasant woman named Andrea. She answered every question I had without rushing me and then offered a tour of the event space. The Venue was very easy to locate and looked nice from the outside with a big fountain out front Perfect for pictures. When we first walked in the building it smelt and looked very clean(which was very important to me). Andrea was as pleasant in person as on the phone and everything she said about the space was accurate from the big screen TVs and kitchen to a sound system and other modern amenities. Simply put this Venue was everything we were looking for to make our special day amazing, Thank you Andrea and Heritage House LaDonnia and Jeffrey

I am not damaging your business. I spoke the truth…read more We did agree on many things. Some of this would include the empty vases above the mantle, and the snacks and drinks (in the contract) for the bridal suite and grooms suite. The groom and groomsmen weren't even taken to the suite. The contract was for you to be there. My decision in choosing Villa Franca had as much to do with you as the beauty of the property. I trusted you with one of the most important days of my life and it wasn't important enough for you to attend. You worked with me for months and then a month before my wedding you decided that going to Florida with your husband was more important. The original issues are the same. The bartender did not do his job well. The venue is ill-prepared for rain. Things that should have been setup were not. The fact that you keep reiterating that they were agreed upon just makes it worse! Yes, they were agreed upon. But the venue didn't follow through. I apologize profusely if there was a broken lamp. I also do not know of any liquor, and I do truly apologize for that as well. You should know me well enough that I would be humiliated if these were true. You have lost my trust so I'm not sure to believe you or if you are accusing me of things to undermine my review. I will say again, the coordinator and your staff were fantastic. I hold you accountable because you are the owner and I signed a contract with you.

The…read morewedding venue is absolutely beautiful and Ginger Black and her staff were great to work with. Everything that we discussed for the wedding was completed as requested and they went above and beyond to make sure Mackenzie and Taylor's day was special. Even though we had extra guests attend, they quickly set up extra tables and place settings to make sure all guests had a seat. She was always there asking if we needed anything and made sure our requests were honored. The 3 new chandeliers inside the draped tent are breath taking. We all loved them. I would recommend this venue to others who are planning a special wedding in a country setting. Nora Patterson-Proud mother of Mr. and Mrs. Taylor Patterson (Mackenzie Holshouser-Patterson)

This is for the Open Swim area: It's pretty easy to do and find online that you need reservations…read moreand a waiver for each person. I would recommend the 3:45pm to sunset option if you are going in the summer time. The whole grassy area and patio is in the shade which was so nice. The life guards are friendly and we were able to try all the jumps around the area. 30$ per person, including the 5$ reservation fee. It's cash only once you're there, so plan ahead. When we arrived, we also got a 5$ coupon for the restaurant so technically it's like 25$ a person if you end up buying food. The food was reasonably priced and was good quality. They have beer on tap too that was 6$ for about a 12oz. Lots of areas to jump off and space to swim around without it being too crowded. You'll have to do a swim test which is really easy. You jump in, swim to the platform, tread water for 1min, and then swim to the exit ladder.

Swim area only: I drove an hour to see if this is something I'd want to do with my grandkids when…read morethey visit. Glad I did. First it's much smaller than I expected. I've swam in quarry's 20x bigger easily. This was MAYBE the size of a 50 meter pool ( Olympic). 2 places to jump in, there was no swing into the water, no zip line. No diving boards. No rock or beach area at water level. A small platform in the middle. Overall just not impressive at all. I can see why they have a 10-3 and 3:45 to close swim splits as it's so small it would become very crowded. I can see it would be a good place for locals to take a dip but at $30 plus you have to buy all food drinks there. Bathrooms were clean. Overall not a great experience

Deerpond plantation is a beautiful venue. I see why they have weddings there. I came here for a…read moreprivate event on a blazing 80 degree summer night and the venue was beautiful. Parking is challenging because we had to park on the grass but the event did a great job parking the cars. The grounds are clean and full of life. When you pull up and par, you're greeted by two brown and tan mini horses. They also have a few ducks roaming around. The pond is nice and they even have podiums around the pond for guests to sit drinks on top of or you can pose for a selfie. They also have rocking chairs stationed around the pond. It was an evening event and mosquitoes come out at night but the venue did a great job of placing tii torches with citronella around the grounds. I must say that this is a very nice and clean venue. If you're looking for a nice place to host an event, this may be your place to check out.

The venue director was super easy to get into contact with, answered any and all questions, allowed for us to tour before booking, and was in general super pleasant and easy going. We really enjoyed using Trackview Hall as our venue, and as I am now a graduate of the vet tech program, I hope that future classes choose to use Trackview as their pinning ceremony venue of choice. On top of everything, the venue was also extremely affordable for the quality and ease of booking. Huge thank you to Trackview for making our event special!
