The Ewing Manor was part of the "Christmas at the Mansions Tour." The manor itself is amazing! The…read moreChannel-Norman Architecture is stunning, especially the spiral staircase. The manor is decorated for Christmas throughout and made it even more spectacular! The history of the manor is interesting and primarily featured Hazel Buck Ewing's life. She was an equestrian and the stables were part of the tour. In each room a docent shared interesting factoids and historical facts about the manor. The cutting edge technology for the time period was also promoted, such as the concrete beams made to look like wood, and the "automatic" horse watering troughs. The manor was actually lived in until 1969, but was decorated for the holidays in 1930's style. The tour is a one night event and could easily become a holiday tradition.

Palace Events provided drapery, lighting and a chandelier, which created the perfect setting! Courtney was the coordinator we worked with and she was polite and very organized. She also was proactive in seeing an issue with the lighting and fixed it before I had to mention anything. In addition, we used their Standard Photo Booth and were so glad we did! Sam was easy to work with and created the perfect photo design for our wedding! There were many options, including videos and GIFs--our guests had a blast with it! Overall, we're very pleased with Palace Events and are happy we used them for our wedding! *Professional photography by Miranda Malliet Photography

We stayed in a vintage double queen and I thought the room had a lot of charm. The furniture in our room was older due to the style of room (and was absolutely what I wanted), but any amenities were updated. The shower was modern with what I am pretty sure was a rainfall showerhead and a handheld as well. Very refreshing. Loved how the soap smelled too, very fresh and lemony (I actually liked it so much I asked the front desk for a couple bars to take home and they were kind enough to toss a couple my way.) Staff was all very friendly and kind. The breakfast in the morning was quite tasty as well. We'd absolutely stay here again. Hopefully next time, we have time to use the pool.
