First off to say, I'm not an elk, but I have been in here quite a few times for events. Our high…read moreschool class has had several reunions here, and we just recently had our 45th. The place is clean, and it's just such a nice atmosphere. Not too fancy. A very nice atmosphere. The bartender was very friendly, and he made sure to take very good care of us. If there was anything we needed, somebody was there to help. The food was excellent. We had a choice. Of either chicken or grill your own steak, with all the trimmings. I had the steak, and it was very decent sized. It came with seasoning, barbecue sauce, and butter if you wanted to put it on, and then you just popped it onto the grill, and in a few minutes, your dinner was ready. My steak came out, perfectly, medium rare. It was tender, and it was delicious. They had several different desserts, and they were also very good. Afterwards, we just had a nice time visiting and catching up. It was a great event. The Elks always take good care of us. Thank you for a very good evening.

First off the location and facility is really nice. The building is huge with so much meeting / congregating space. Most importantly are the members. Such a warm welcoming group. From the person checking in people, to the bartender to just people hanging out.... All very hospitable people. Had a couple of drinks and some good conversations. I could see becoming an Elk sometime.

A great space. I was here for my high school reunion "icebreaker". As somebody mentioned, it looks…read morelike it might've been an old aircraft hanger. It's absolutely beautiful on the inside. They offer a large selection of wine by the glass or bottle, , beer, and for us non-drinkers, soda. The lady tending the bar was very friendly, and very efficient. She had a lot of people to deal with, and she just made everybody feel right at home. The event space was large, and even with a decent sized group, we had plenty of room to mingle and visit. Wine barrels, line the walls each saying what type of wine is on the inside. They provided a very large, very tasty charcuterie board for us.. It was a great evening getting together with everybody. Thank you!

Stayed here for one night while driving to LA from Portland. I chose an interior room which has…read morewindows into the ballroom, not the outside. It was fine for one night but I don't know if I would choose the same type room if staying longer. The hotel has some history behind it and can be a little creepy if you decide to walk around at night by yourself. Our room was #16, located on the second floor. The room was a decent size with a sitting area with two chairs and a settee and a small armoire to hang your clothes. The bathroom was small with a walk in shower but the shower pressure was good and the water was warm. No air conditioning but there was an industrial oscillating fan in the room. Unfortunately, I didn't find the bed too comfortable and the headboard creaked a lot but it was ok for just one night. Taylor at the front desk when we checked in was very helpful and informative. We left early, around 8am and they had a complimentary breakfast available for guests consisting of bagels, sweet pastries, fruit, Tillamook cheese and sliced tomatoes and cucumbers which I presume are for the bagels. Cute spread!

The Inn was centrally located and had its charm about it. The architecture of the building was…read moreamazing. The reservation specialist checking us in was pleasant. The bed was absolutely comfortable. The aroma of the inn was absolutely overwhelming and not a pleasant odor. Our room was a good size, but the furniture was from when the inn opened in 1888. Not comfortable to sit on and relax on. The curtains were tied back in their periodic decor which made pulling them closed an ordeal ( there were 8 of them). Our door to the hallway had a significant leveling problem and could see into the hallway when the door was closed. Although I can appreciate the charm of the past it felt like everything (carpet, furniture, doors, walls) was "dirty"

What a fantastic experience! Did tea here for my friend's birthday and it was the best. They served…read moretea, finger sandwiches, and cookies/candies during the tea time and they had dessert after. They also have options to pay extra for champagne and wine. The sandwiches and pastries were really good. The tea was also really nice. We got to tour the house and it was really cute. The lady who owned the house was very knowledgeable and very friendly. She was giving facts about the area and the house. She was also talking about the beautiful pieces in the house. It was very reasonably priced and I really recommend you come here to tea time. You do have to book ahead. They are going to be expanding downstairs to a bubble room with sparkling wine and champagne. I will be coming back here with my family as it was such a lovely experience.

As an administrative assistant at a local high school, I plan annual events for my students at the…read moreWharfinger Building, and have always had a pleasurable experience with the City of Eureka staff who are responsible for its operations. The rates they charge for events are very reasonable. Reaching someone from their office is always fairly easy and they get back to me very quickly, whether I'm using email or phone. I book the Wharfinger for a winter dance at the end of each January. Staff provides me with a layout of their venue along with a list of the furniture items they have available for my use. I then create a layout design using their template explaining what tables and chairs I would like to utilize and where I would like them placed. I usually take a group of students with me to decorate the venue about 5 hours or so before our event is set to begin. Staff always has my requested layout design ready to go, allowing me to just show up and decorate. I opt to pay a bit extra for use of the kitchen facility. I put all drinks and perishable items in their industrial refrigerators, giving them plenty of time to cool before the event, alleviating the need for me to deal with ice. One less thing to do while chaperoning! There are small hooks around the ceiling trim of the building, which makes it very easy to string up lights. We are allowed to tape items to the walls as long as we use painter's tape, and we are also able to string up lights around the patio rails of their back deck. This allows us to create an ambient atmosphere behind the venue overlooking the water. Students often enjoy taking breaks from dancing and hanging out on this patio area to cool off. Staff on hand during events are always incredibly helpful, and assist me in anything I need. Explanations are very thorough when I'm signing off on forms at the end of the event, and they make it very clear what is expected of me during cleanup in order to get our security deposit back after the event. Staff has also been happy to let me borrow a ladder or an extension cord if I needed one, and it's wonderful to have employees on hand in case I have any questions or needs that arise. This is a hassle free venue that I will continue to use year after year.

Betty Crile originally said the deposit for the grange was $350.00, then when it was time to pay…read morethe rest of the fee, she said their was an additional $50.00 key deposit. Both deposits should be returned but instead, she kept the key deposit and $50.00 saying we left beer cans outside. We rented this on Feb. 18, someone rented it on the 17th and the 19th. It was not checked until the 20th. 2 days later. We did not have beer cans at our wedding. Water, liters of soda and sparking cider. All trash was taken to the dump on the 19th. They just try to keep your deposit without checking the venue after each rental.

As for events, You name the event, I've probably been to it. Auto racing, the circus, I saw the lippizaner stallions here the Sunday flea market. The annual Redwood Acres Fair, (it's a small fair that runs for about a week, but it's always fun.). And one of the funniest shows I ever saw here, was called "extreme midget wrestling." I recently attended one of their summertime monthly events, called "acres of eats." a good sized selection of food trucks/trailers, entertainment, activities for the kids, etc. It was a wide selection of food. I had. A stew and an empanada from a Colombian food trailer. It was absolutely delicious, and the price was very reasonable. If you have a chance to go to this event, or anything else else at Redwood acres, it's worth it. I hope Redwood acres lasts for a long time coming. It's a wonderful asset to Eureka.

Additionally, the event (forgot the name) allowed the students to go on a hay ride and sit inside of a parked helicopter where race cars /monster trucks arena is usually held. Overall, it is a nice place to experience large events to small events like the county covid testing area.

My wife, her mom, and I stopped by their community center and found it to be a quiet place to visit, with plenty of parking and easy access to the Pacific Ocean. Manila, California was founded in the early 1900's, named after the capital of the Philippines. After the defeat of the Spanish fleet at the Battle of Manila (effectively ending the Spanish rule over its colony in 1898), up to 12 towns in the U.S. were named Manila. This community center was initially built in the 50's as an elementary school, and later converted into a center that now houses a Montessori school and Manila Community District. It has a large children's playground with jungle gyms and slides, plenty of car parking, accessible restrooms from the outside, along with an outdoor basketball court with two baskets. It is also close to the Manila Dunes Recreation Area, with sandy trails leading to the shoreline. My wife noticed the street address of the center (1611), which has significance as the founding year of the first university in the Philippines (University of Santo Tomas). It's a special point of pride for my wife's mom, since that is her alma mater.
