There is a good amount of room for a small wedding party and a kitchen area for any prep or catering work to be done.

If you are here for a wedding they will reserve parking spots (Mainly street/parallel parking) for attendees so that you are able to park in peace!

We were married here on June 20th and we could not have imagined having it anywhere else since 2 aunts, my sister and my best friend have all used this venue for there wedding. It is a beautiful building itself on the outside, and the inside is just as beautiful with its huge windows and beautiful views of the water. I loved the look of the old dark wood floors. Heidi was our attendant that day and she provided service that was above and beyond what she was suppose to do. She assisted in the setting up and cleaning of our wedding which we did not expect at all. She was extremely helpful and we knew we could count on her. This venue has a complete kitchen with stoves, oven, microwaves, 2 refrigerator and a lot of room for any type of food prep you might need to do. I was told my the town of steilacoom that we could only have 150 people and music needed to cease by 10:00pm. It also can be a little spendy at $100.00 a hour, but compared to many other venues, it is pretty reasonable. I must say this is a great location to use if you want beautiful wedding photography because the venue itself and surrounding areas has so many opportunities for great shots.

Steilacoom is pretty small but I really love Steilacoom. It's kind of a gateway city to DuPont,…read moreLakewood, Tacoma, University Place and Joint Base Lewis McChord. Steilacoom is the oldest incorporated town in Washington. A lot has changed since 1854, but I like Steilacoom because it is very old and the citizens do quite a bit to preserve the aesthetic as well as the culture of the olden days. I've used Steilacoom to ride the ferry to Anderson Island which is a small and nice get away and a close enough ferry rather than driving to Point Defiance or Seattle to get on a ferry. You can also catch the ferry to Ketron Island and I'm not quite sure if they actually still do regular ferry runs to McNeil Island now that the prison is closed and only violent sexual offenders are housed there now. One other thing I like about Steilacoom are the views. If you stand at the edge of town either at the ferry dock or at the little pavilion/park they have up on the hill behind the tennis courts you can get a magnificent view of the bay and may even be able to see the Narrows Bridge from where you stand. I think if I had real estate in Steilacoom, it would just be worth it for the views as well as the access to the beach. I usually drive through Steilacoom as a way to forego getting on I-5 when there is traffic and I just don't feel like dealing with it. This actually happens a lot since we all know about the I-5 traffic. One last thing that helped me fall more in love with Steilacoom was attending their annual Apple Squeeze. I thought it was really cool to see old-fashioned apple cider presses being used to make your own apple cider by hand. It really allowed you to see what it felt like to make juice the way possibly the pioneers did as well as see some of the old-fashioned machinery. Check out the historical society if you visit or take a ferry ride or just take in the views. You won't be disappointed.

With one exception, the one employee who waits on people has treated me very rudely. He seems to think he is a one-man entertainment show rather than a postal worker - and he is not entertaining. He will almost never give a straight answer to a question and he is totally condescending. Today, I wanted to make sure I could find the tracking number on the receipt I received which for some reason was about a foot long. I found it at the top of the receipt after a few seconds and circled it. He told me that wasn't a tracking #. I asked why it said tracking # if it wasn't a tracking #. He pointed to a # farther down the receipt and I pointed out it was the same # as the one I had circled. He implied I was wrong and insisted I use the # he had pointed to. I again pointed out it was the same # and he again told me I was wrong. He interrupted me repeatedly while telling me I was wrong which, if he had looked, he could have seen in a second what I was saying was accurate. There was a line and I think he wanted to put me down in front of them by implying I was stupidly incorrect. I am an old white woman. He does have a few good reviews so perhaps he treats people of other ages and races more kindly than he treats me. This P.O. is a terrible experience.

Check in is easy and pleasant. The person greeting you (host?) is knowledgeable about the processes, quick to answer questions, and seems to have the needed info available without any issues. While I have walked in when they're busy, they are excellent at warning you that if you don't have time to wait, you may want to swing by on a less busy day. I was VERY grateful for this info the last time I was in, adding my motorcycle endorsement to my license. It wasn't an urgent matter and their computers had been down off and on all morning, causing a bit slow-down. This isn't something they can control, but they took responsibility by warning folks that the wait times on the screen weren't terribly accurate and that the system can go down again and cause a freeze at any time. I chose to come back another day! I did come back, and this last Friday morning, I was in and out in less than 25 minutes!! Big thanks to the staff here that seems really great at their jobs, well-trained, and eager to help. None of the dismissive attitude that seems to be the stereotypical behavior of this type of worker.

Maybe you are not aware of Los Angeles AFB...lol. One base that I "REPORT" to is Fort Lewis. Lt. Milanio reporting to duty at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Due to security, I will not go to specifics about JBLM. Fort Lewis and McChord Air Force Base combined makes, Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM). The two specifics spots that I love going to are the Commissary and the PX or the Post Exchange. Items purchased in the PX are tax free. Yep, another benefit of working and/or living in the base. Just like any other city, there are McDonald's, Burger King, bowling alleys, homes, movie theatres, and banks. You would never notice who are soldiers because they are all in civilian attire. Maybe the person writing this review is a **censored**. All I can say is JBLM is a great place for both soldiers and citizens. Well, I can't say too much here, but I am glad to visit JBLM from time to time. The one thing you will notice at JBLM....No, not the military vehicles, but the view of Mt. Rainier. The open sky of WA meets the U.S. Military Base- JBLM. The Yelp Universe. Where are you traveling today? **End Transmission**

DuPont is a small circle of a town that seems to basically be all military. There is a lot more than military now in the town though with Intel, State Farm, and the new Amazon distribution warehouse. It just doesn't seem as there is much room for DuPont to grow since all the land around it seems to be owned by the military. I wish it had more restaurants or maybe even a real grocery store and not the general store downtown. I guess most people shop on the base or Lacey/Lakewood. Maybe just having enough to barely keep you busy is how the people of DuPont like it. I do love that I can go through DuPont to get to Steilacoom, University Place, Lakewood, and elsewhere to try to avoid I-5. I just wish there was an entrance into DuPont from Mounts Rd as traffic can be weird in the morning with the truck station and people exiting to go to the base.
