Mistwood was our venue for both our wedding ceremony and reception, and everything was beautiful!…read moreWe planned everything in 11 months with the help of staff coordinator Audra. In July we attended the tasting to try all the dishes and from there chose all the menu options for the reception dinner. It was very convenient to have the venue as the caterer, and as we had eaten at McWethy's, their restaurant, many times (including the night we got engaged), we knew the food would be good. Since our wedding was in November, we had both the ceremony and the reception in the Great Hall. There was another event there (baby shower) in the morning but we were able to take possession of the bridal room at 2:30 pm and the other group had cleared out by then. My now-husband and his team of friends who were helping set up said the staff did a good job of quickly flipping the venue from the baby shower to ours. My only quibbles with the venue pertain to the bride room. There was only one lit bulb in the chandelier, so lighting was poor; no hangers in the closet; they provided us with a samovar of water upon request, but it leaked all over the vanity (water bottles would have been better); the couch is very low (my maid of honor couldn't get up from it without help; my mother brought in a couple of dining chairs so we weren't just standing, because there was just one other armchair to sit on); and it started out freezing but ended up roasting hot in the room. It was a good thing it was just me, my maid of honor, my mom and my hairdresser, and we had already done makeup at my mom's house in the morning, because if there had been lots of bridesmaids it would have been too crowded! (The bride room is connected to the public ladies room, but it has a keypad lock; the lighting in there is quite ambient as well.) We went for a medieval sort of theme with our wedding, so the Tudor-style beams and large fireplace in the Great Hall worked well with this. Our photographer also took photos outside against the golf course and building, including a lovely but very steep bridge. Cocktail hour was in the Terrace Room while they flipped the Great Hall from the ceremony seating to the tables and dance floor setup. We had arranged for specialty cocktails (named after our cats!) and the bartender delivered! The catering captain, Betty, introduced herself to us and also coordinated the timing of things well (speeches, bringing out the late night snack pretzel wall, etc). All the staff that we interacted with were true professionals. The food was all delicious (we chose NY strip with garlic herb butter sauce, chicken with champagne sauce, and cauliflower steak with pesto sauce as our three entree choices), and it was very helpful that they could make accomodations for vegans, vegetarians, people with gluten allergies, and dairy intolerance. This was quite an affordable yet very beautiful venue for our perfect day! Everything went perfectly as far as I know and we heard so many times from guests how lovely the setting was. I would highly recommend Mistwood as a wedding venue if you are planning for your special event.

Wow did I feel so small and stupid! Nicole came up to me in the waiting area and I could tell she was a little shocked at my age. When she found out I have never played well all she kept asking is what sports I have played. When I said none, she replied with "not even bowling?" With such a condescending attitude i really wanted to walk out then. She made it VERY clear with her attitude that she was very annoyed with having me as a student. I felt SO stupid and will never go back there and probably never take lessons anywhere because I do not want to ever feel like she made me feel ever again!

I have golfed here many times over the past few years and heard great things about their wedding receptions, so knew that it would also be a great choice for a baby shower with friends and family. We booked our date about four months in advance and worked closely with the event coordinator, Róisín Daly who was outstanding throughout the entire process from start to finish. She provided a thorough checklist of how to prepare for the event, along with the materials they provide and anything additional we would bring. On the day of our shower, Róisín, Jennifer and Martin were all available to help us set up and ensure that the serving staff followed the timing of our schedule. The Gallery room was the perfect size for 60 of our guests, offering scenic views of the 1st and 10th holes of the golf course. Everyone raved about the presentation and quality of the food, from the appetizers to the beautifully plated main course. Following dessert, we had a couple hours to play some games, mingle, and enjoy ourselves. Our experience was truly seamless, with great communication from Róisín and a perfectly executed event by their entire staff. Our guests had a wonderful time and the feedback was extremely positive. We would highly recommend this venue if you're looking for a classy event with friends and family, I can assure you we will be hosting more with them in the future. Thanks Róisín and team! Best, Charlie & Kristine

Never once did I feel like my complaint was being heard because he was rude and argumentative. I suggest retraining the staff on how to be friendly in enforcing the course rules.

Did not feel at all welcome or like he appreciated the business... happy to take our money elsewhere, I guess.

The concert itself was great. A few of the booths closed earlier than expected, which was a bit of a bummer, but overall, as a concert venue, it was a pretty solid experience.

Disappointing Experience - Not Worth the Time or Money…read more I played nine holes at this course, but was forced to pay for a full 18--already not a great start. The course itself was in terrible condition. There was goose poop scattered across nearly every fairway and green, making it unpleasant and unhygienic. No one seemed to be repairing their divots, and it felt like the course maintenance crew had simply given up. To make matters worse, we encountered animal remains on one of the holes--not something you ever expect or want to see while trying to enjoy a round of golf. Sprinklers were inexplicably running the entire time we were out, flooding tee boxes and soaking large parts of the course, making play nearly impossible. One tee box was literally under water. The bunkers? Solid mud. No sand in sight--just wet, compacted muck that hadn't been maintained in what looked like weeks. This was hands down one of the worst golf course experiences I've had. Save your money and your time--there are far better maintained and more professionally run courses out there.

Though the details of the shower had been thoroughly discussed prior to the event, on that day I found myself constantly have to ask to have items taken care of that we'd previously agreed to. Just a few examples: The mimosa bar was not set up and ready to accept guests at our contracted start time, and we had to frequently ask for refills of champagne and juice (as well as coffee). They never offered soft drinks to our guests. This made the event much more stressful to me and the other hosts (although the guests had an excellent time and enjoyed the shower thoroughly). I sent a letter detailing my concerns immediately after the event, but never even received the courtesy of a response.
