Love, love, love the Historic Obici house! This old home that belonged to the Planter's Peanut…read morefounder was on the verge of being demolished but Mr. Roundtree who runs the Sleepy Hole golf course stepped up and helped to get it renovated and turned into a restaurant and Pro shop. Since the location is out of the way, the restaurant being open to the public as a regular restaurant didn't work out but now it is open for special events (you can find them on their website or Facebook page), parties or weddings. I miss being able to just go there for dinner, enjoy the view and the beautiful house but understand why they had to change the operation. The food is worth the price, the staff is friendly and they are happy to show off the restaurant and allow you to walk around and check it out.

I have mixed emotions about this review since on one hand I was glad to see that the Obici House…read morewas saved, while on the other hand, I didn't like how it all happened. I don't like that they tore down the detached Carriage House that was also on the property. The House is beautiful and unique with history. I am perennially disappointed with the golf course and I have been to only one function in the House since it was restored. The food was nothing remarkable and the service was even more non-descript. I don't know what they charge for functions there, but I thought that maybe they would have improved the surroundings a bit more to accommodate the status of the Obici House, the surrounding out buildings, clubhouse, 18th hole and driving range. It looks like they did the bare minimum to the house. I don't want to tarnish this review too much since I haven't been there for an official event within the last year. I noticed that they are having an open house soon and I plan to check it out and update my review. I would recommend that if the price seems to high for your event, then pass on Obici House until you start seeing better reviews on the service and food.

A hidden gem in Chesapeake for sure! I personally loved my experience there at Riverview; my best…read morefriend had her wedding reception there not too long ago and it was absolutely beautiful. They have a huge event space that you can rent out for anything, and it faces out onto the water which was a gorgeous view. I also did personal training here with Sierra Meacham and for anyone looking for a personal trainer but doesn't know where to start, like I was, I highly HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Sierra even just for a talk. She helped me personal train and helped me understand meal prepping and what to look for in my foods and what I need nutrients-wise for my goal as well as my weight goals! She kept pushing me to my PRs are farther:) She is so understanding and takes every problem I had whether it was with meal-prepping or weight-lifting posture hesitancies and how to overcome. I highly recommend her but definitely reach out and check in with her! She can book up quickly because of how awesome and thorough she is with her clients!! She can also guide you through the different rooms in Riverview such as the redlight therapy and saunas and what not and the importance of them on the body physically and mentally. They also have networking nights and people with different small businesses or want to get out there with the public and socialize I highly recommend checking in when the next night is and go... it's a lot of fun 100/10 recommend!! #personaltraining #mealprep #she'llsetyoustraight! #networking

Every conversation, every touch point, every interaction was top tier. No phone call went unanswered. No text message missed! Just top tier customer service. I didn't walk into a space needing it to be cleaned. I didn't have to keep asking unanswered questions. The entire process was seamless. If you're looking for a space that offers you more than building, chairs, lacks customer focus, dedication and care for clients... This is NOT the place for you bc Kisha Lee provides all of this with precision. It was such an honor to host my PRE BIRTHDAY BASH at your venue! Thank you for absolutely EVERYTHING!

This establishment offers: a full basketball court gymnasium, seating in the gym, a full kitchen, meeting rooms, a fitness center, office space etc. It is beautiful inside. Consider this place for all your event space needs at a great price. The Family Life Center is located adjacent to the main sanctuary. Plenty of parking and the entrance is handicap accessible as well. I attended the Grand Opening on a Friday night and the gymnasium was transformed into a reception area for 100+ attendees. There was still room to feature a live band that consisted of at least 5 members. I am loving it! The vibe is awesome and I cannot wait to use all the amenities this center offers. This two level center has stairs as well as elevator access. Have fun and enjoy life :)

Yesterday, we had an 85th bday party for my Mother, and to say I was disappointed with this venue,…read moreis an understatement. There was no representative from the venue to personally let us in, plus THE VENUE WAS NOT SETUP for the event. My family, which included my young nieces, and I had to manually pull out 13 tables, put them together, pull out over 100 chairs, PLUS, cover the table and chairs. With guests traveling 6-9 hours and arriving in a little over an hour, it was the most unprofessional experience I have EVER seen. I was brought to tears because this event was planned as a celebration to remember for my Mother. When you pay (in ALL CASH) to use a venue, you expect a professional setup, as promised. That was not provided by The Niche, and I will NEVER use this venue again. Don't waste your time and money. You'll regret it.
