The staff was friendly and attentive. There is plenty of parking and the grounds are exquisite! The outside area wasn't very big so if you're having a smaller event, then this is the place for you.

We looked relentlessly for a venue for the party, but every place was either too far or had no ambience. I'd seen pictures from a friends event that was held here and quickly called her to find out all the deets. I called the next day, spoke to Brooke, and went to see the place for myself. I. Fell. In. Love. But I had to coax my mother and sister in law into it. They thought it was too small and just would not work for our 150 guests. I had to quickly explain that the venue also included the outdoor patio! And tables and chairs and ice machine and kitchen and premium furniture and...the list goes on and on! Everything was perfect! We were able to fit our 100 guests and had a band! I'm telling you guys if you need a venue with class and ambiance for an affordable price then LOOK NO FURTHER!!!

Bunkers are still in need of sand We had a fivesome and finished in 4.5 hours. Excellent time. Hope to get out again next week and I really hope my score is lower, but it wasn't Riverlakes fault because it's in great shape. Say hi to Chad in the Pro shop.

Riverlakes used to be a solid place to practice, especially after work. Since installing the "…read moreTopgolf-like" setup, the range feels more like entertainment than a legit practice area. The switch from grass to mats has made it much less useful for golfers trying to actually improve. The wait was ridiculous--almost an hour with no open mats available. For someone coming straight from work, that's a complete waste of time. Disappointing change from what used to be a great practice range and this was a Wednesday night.

This was my first time visiting, and while I haven't tried the regular sit-down dining, my first…read moreimpression was that the place itself is very nice and well kept. The buffet room is on the smaller side, with long tables that seat about 12 people each. Seating felt a bit limited, though I assume there may be an additional room for overflow. The buffet offered a wide variety of options, including seafood, American breakfast and lunch items, and an omelet station, which was a plus. The service was good--someone was always checking on us and attentive throughout our visit. That said, while there were many choices, the food itself was average overall. We paid about $60 for two drinks and the buffet, which felt a bit pricey for the quality, though the variety does help justify it somewhat. Overall, a decent experience with good service and plenty of options, but the food didn't quite stand out enough for the price.

The young lady at the front seemed very frazzled and we soon found out why. The dining area was packed and after we were seated we started noticing the wait staff apologizing to other tables for the delay in food coming out of the kitchen. Management had overbooked the restaurant and understaffed the kitchen. They had a limited menu yet they were struggling to get food out. We were there an hour before our food arrived and tables around us who arrived before us were still waiting for food. Our poor server Elizabeth was great but you could tell she was so stressed. Food was hit and miss Crepes were delicious Over easy eggs were overcooked and the tater tots were not crispy or warm. Legends management /ownership needs to get their act together or they will be closed down before the change of ownership is complete.

I went to KLEA with the intention of using this venue for my sister's wedding. I was greeted rudely…read moreby Diana, she seemed upset about the amount of people who were brought in to see the venue (myself bride mother of bride and children). We asked basic questions about the venue and she seemed to not mind. Once the price of the venue was brought up I asked (being a KLEA member) about the KLEA member discount (knowing there is one). Diana responded very rudely, "what about it?" I ask what the discount was being a member. Diana stated she was only giving a discount to the bride or groom no one else. I asked Diana if she can tell me the discount regardless, she refused. We continued with the tour, at the end of the tour we asked about availability dates. Diana told us, I asked Diana if we can review the contract, she approved. I asked if she could get it, she then stated she didn't see a point but could get it if I'd like. I told her yes please. Diana changed her mind and said she was not going to show us unless we signed it. I explained I just wanted to review it before we signed anything she refused. My sister (bride to be) was too fed up to continue to speak with her and asked to leave. It was very apparent Diana did not like us when we entered the venue, the way she spoke to myself and my family was very rude. It also should not matter if the bride or groom is a member to get a discount. My gift for my sister's wedding is paying for the venue I am a KLEA member, my mother is a KLEA member, my brother in law is a KLEA member. Our family is Law Enforcement in Kern County. It is not only about the discount, the way Diana made my sister feel was very uncalled for. This was my sister's favorite venue however how can she enjoy her wedding when the person in charge of the venue was unpleasant for no reason? Venue is pretty customer service was awful. I would love a response from anyone at this venue.

I haven't stayed here in three or four years but it's pretty much the same from how I remembered…read moreit. I was here about a week ago for one night and booked a King Standard room, which was one of two options available at the time I made the reservation (about two months ago). The cost for the night was about $133 including the taxes. The incidental hold is still $25 but the front desk staff didn't mention it when I checked in. I had to look up the hold on my bank account later to verify the amount. This also happened at another Holiday Inn I stayed at the day before. I don't know why the desk staff are not informing guests about the incidental holds. I tried connecting to the hotel's wifi but the connection was really slow so I used my data plan instead. The room was alright but the mini fridge hummed a lot during the night. There are exits to the parking lot by the stairwells but you can't reenter through these doors. You have to go around through the lobby to get back inside. I had to leave really early so I didn't stay for breakfast. The offerings were the usual hotel staples: eggs, sausage, cereal, bread, juice, etc. On my way out I saw a delivery truck and the driver bringing in boxes of refrigerated vegetables. I don't know what they were for, but they weren't ingredients for the breakfast items.

Even though I hired her for just the day of, she always communicated with me and remained updated with all the wedding details. I knew I could always trust her and knew she understood my vision.

Aileen would spend many late nights answering my concerns or making exceptional recommendations to bring my visions of my wedding day to life. When I walked into the reception area for the first time at the Villa Verano Estate, I had tears in my eyes and I was literally speechless. From the flowers to the lighting to the table cloths and all the rentals, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. A special thanks to her team on the actual wedding day because they were absolutely amazing and it went off seamlessly. Her and her team were by my side the entire wedding day constantly assuring me that everything was on track and going as planned, which I didn't particularly see but appreciated so much because I wasn't bothered with one thing. Aileen and her team anticipated what I needed before I even knew that I needed anything. We owe so much of our beautiful wedding day to Aileen! We couldn't have asked for a better coordinator in all parts of the process. She went above and beyond all of the responsibilities in the contract, and you can tell she really loves what she does. Early on in the process, we had already planned some of the wedding ourselves but we didn't have a very cohesive idea for the design side of our wedding. Aileen took the photos we'd saved of things we liked and our thoughts on what atmosphere we were going for and she created a digital design board for us. Her design board included our color palette, layout ideas, and design ideas for every aspect of our wedding from start to finish. It brought all of our ideas together with new ones into one cohesive, beautiful vision. If I could do one thing different it would be that I had found her sooner in the planning process. Thank you again Aileen for taking my childhood fairy tale and making it a reality. -Ashley H.
