I attended an October wedding…read more It is near a highway 99 and just off Grangeville Blvd. Plenty of parking, nicely paved and designed walkways, and lovely facilities for an outdoor wedding and the Barn has space for photo backdrops, built in bar and lots of space for tables and dancing. There is a small house for wedding parties to get ready. Easy access for disabled. The alter is on west side so beautiful views of sunset. This venue would work for more than weddings. I'm thinking reunions, birthday parties, work parties. Plenty light in the evenings. Please check it out!

Trying to rent the Veterans Memorial building was unorganized & unsuccessful. I first spoke with a…read moreyoung lady on 12/12 named Julia- who stated the date I needed for my mom's memorial was available. Julia was not sure of herself & was unable to answer most of my questions. I gave her grace as everyone needs to learn. She was being coached by the directer Charles, who I could hear in the background. Nonetheless, I confirmed the date & tried to contact them for two days straight to inquire who I make the check out to. There was two full days of unanswered calls. On 12/17 Charles finally returned my call to inform me the date Julia told me was available was actually not available. After sending out the tentative date to the family who are flying in from out of state. The Veterans Memorial needs to 1)Put someone responsible in charge of providing information & date look up 2) Have a valid system in place to include a basic email when they cannot answer the phone 3) Offer payments over the phone for people out of state would not recommend dealing with this non profit.

We came here today for the Mother's Day brunch, and unfortunately, things went downhill right from…read morethe start. The parking lot was tiny and completely full, so we had to park several blocks away. I'll give them credit for the ambiance--it was pleasant. But let's talk about the food. It was, without exaggeration, one of the worst meals I've ever had. The catering company should be ashamed. They ran out of food and even ran out of plates. At $60 per person, I expected to enjoy a proper brunch with at least the option of seconds. The quality of the food was extremely disappointing--low-budget at best--and I wouldn't be surprised if they used powdered eggs. Our group was fairly large, yet we were split between two separate tables, and one of those tables was shared with a completely unrelated family. That just added to the awkwardness of the experience. If you're planning an event at this venue, I'd strongly suggest looking elsewhere. Not a single person in our group would return.

Unfortunately this venue did not meet my expectations and I wouldn't want another bride to…read moreexperience this. My wedding was relatively small- I spent months working on decor, planning etc but unfortunately the staff started to clean up and take everything down before 9:30pm (we had the venue until 10). This basically resulted in the wedding feeling very "over" when we still had a lot of time that we paid for- I would have loved to dance the rest of the night away but because everything was already cleaned up- people thought it was over. I was a distracted bride and didn't realize what was going on until almost every table was empty - the staff seemed like they were in a rush to go home. The most upsetting issue was earlier in the day, our coordinator from the venue did not communicate with my family which resulted in my grandparents sitting in the back of my wedding. I would like to emphasize we only had about 75 people, less than 10 of those were my blood family and my grandparents SAT AT THE BACK. I can't believe a venue could not handle directing the traffic of 75 people. SEVERAL of my guest approached me after the wedding to say they felt uncomfortable before the wedding from the treatment they were receiving. My wedding cake was also put out incorrectly which resulted in hideous holes on the top of my cake ( I wish I was kidding) . I am a very type B person, I tried to make this wedding as simple as possible and I was extremely let down by this venue. I won't even get into the $200 that went missing at my wedding that they didn't seem to find on camera. Simply don't get married here- take your money somewhere else. All you will get is a $100 gift card to a breakfast restaurant as an apology.

The venue has an old Victorian type style to it. Plenty of shade for those hot summer events. The area for the wedding is a short walk from the reception area. They have a bar and very nice bathroom area. It is hard to find a problem with this venue. You do have to drive over a narrow bridge that might stress some drivers. I've driven over it in a full size pickup with no problem. The food was excellent and plenty of it. I would suggest this place for your event.

I had my wedding here. Silvia was great to work with and was so helpful in the planning process…read more The venue is so beautiful and did not require a lot of extra decoration. They include so much including the furniture and lighting, and we got a good deal on the dance floor. We chose this venue because it encompasses what we love about Visalia, with the greenery and the oak trees. Many of my guests have commented on how beautiful it was and thought it was very unique. The only concerns were regarding the bridge getting to the venue, but we did not have problems with it, and with getting our rentals out the night of the wedding, but it was easy to coordinate. The food was amazing, as we expected from Fugazzis. From the time of our tasting, we knew the food was going to be good. We had ample choices for our appetizers, the entree options were delicious and plentiful, the desserts were really good, and the late night tacos were a huge hit for our guests. Silvia was so helpful in planning the day. From coordinating with my vendors, to answering all of our questions, she helped the day go smoothly. She is very knowledgable and had good suggestions for our other vendors as we were doing our research. Overall, it was a great day, and I am so happy that we chose to have it at Victorian Garden.

We've stayed at The Darling a few times now as we have family in the area. We tend to gravitate…read moretowards boutique hotels beyond "big box" properties and The Darling definitely fits the bill in that regard. The rooms are always clean, the Elderwood is an ice touch, and the vibe is always fun. During this trip, all was fine when what sounded like the HVAC system above our room started to knock. It's an old historic building so, things happen. The knocking though quickly turned into a roar. We contacted the front desk and this is where the true professionalism of the hotel crew, and particularly Maria, shined through. Maria quickly came upstairs, assessed the situation, triaged with other teams inside the hotel, and identified a solution within 20 minutes. Given the scope of the repair was unclear at the time, she moved us to another room and even upgraded us (even though she didn't have to!) for the inconvenience. Things happen, that's not an issue for us, it's how the team addresses them when they come up. The Darling team rose to the occasion with flying colors so seamlessly in this situation, especially Maria. So for us, just underscores a series of positive experiences at the hotel. This isn't an ultra luxury 5-star hotel, so don't come here expecting that. But it's a great place to stay in Visalia with a premium, boutique vibe, great restaurant, and clean well apportioned rooms. We will be back.

Room service was good quality, appropriately priced and arrived quickly. The only reason I couldn't give this 5 stars was there was no internal secondary lock on the door which made it feel a little unsafe as a solo traveler and also there were not clear instructions about how to enter the gated parking lot upon checking in. Otherwise I had a good stay and would consider visiting again just to eat at the restaurant.
