I am writing to review regarding a birthday party I attended at Amador Rancho Center. This is…read morelocated at the Rancho San Ramon Community Park. This area has a lot of parking. It is like a big giant loop. The community center is well kept, the bathrooms are cleaned. It is definitely a good space to have a party for kids especially if they want to utilize the playground or Splash pad. If you are hosting a party during the colder months, then you may need to find some activities inside. I think they have several rooms that you can rent from. The one that we were in did not have carpet, some people like the carpet feel for some parties (like baby shower), but I thought the space was plentiful for a kid's birthday party. The kids were able to run around, play musical chairs and plenty of room for an entertainer.

This center is unstaffed so you have to contact them by phone or email. NONE of them answer. Tried…read moreemailing the main person of contact and they give you a date to tour a month out. Or they give you weekday times to tour that are in the middle of the day. They stopped responding to my emails and never answered their personal lines that are included in their email signature. HOW FRUSTRATING! Either you don't want my business in reserving for an event. Or you're discriminating against me in not responding to my emails. My boyfriend and I emailed the facility tech Alejandro Ochoa (gochoa@sanramon.ca.gov), the rec coordinator James Spielvogel (jspielvogel@sanramon.ca.gov), and program specialist Nargess Anwar (nanwar@sanramon.ca.gov). They only responded at the very beginning and never responded back when I was serious enough to come an tour. We submitted a form to rent the center for our event. NOTHING BACK. It's been 10 days and counting since we've gotten any response. Don't give them your business. The city (or whoever is responsible) needs to hire people who are competent enough to answer their emails and phones so that they can get business in renting our their facility.

A breakfast buffet was set up in the Juniper atrium up the stairs, with fresh fruit, sausage links, potatoes, and scrambled eggs, along with a beverage station offering coffee, tea, and juice. Tables were arranged nicely, and it's a beautiful open space with lots of natural light, though a bit echoey if trying to hear announcements in the room or any kind of communication with the large group. Presentations were held in the Tahoe auditorium with clean and comfortable lime green seats facing the stage and much better sound than in the atrium. We used at least a couple different rooms during the conference, but it looked like they have so much more to offer. Such a lovely venue, with multiple lounge seating areas, along with lake views out back and access to Lake Annabel just steps away. Water features create an inviting setting at the front entrance coming from the parking lot as well, with lots of greenery and adorable waterbirds on site. Parking was free and plentiful, too. Just a great event space altogether.

Saneta and her team were great to work with from day one; we were able to tour the venue early on, go over quotes and figure out what worked with our budget & even attend an event where we could sample dinner options and meet with vendors! Communication was great and the entire process from booking our date to finalizing all the little details was smooth throughout. We truly had the best time on our big day and everything came together perfectly on the day of. Canyon View's team worked great with our wedding coordinator/planner and all of our other vendors. The venue is simple, elegant & spacious, and you can truly tailor it to whatever you dream of. The outdoor area where we had our ceremony has a beautiful view as well. We received endless compliments from our guests on our venue, how everything came together & the event as a whole. We could not be more thankful to have celebrated one of the biggest days of our lives at Canyon View.

Saneta was the Cal State certified event planner . Before the meeting she e mailed us and called us to remind us "'don't be late " . We arrived 5 minutes early and were greeted by her lovely assistant. We were informed to wait a little while and we ended up waiting 20 minutes . No apologies. Sandra met us when she was done with the last client . We were wondering why stressed so much about " on time " while she could not keep the appointment as scheduled. The venue is beautiful, nicely devoted with big Wi downs and screen so you could appreciate the sunshine and green lawn outside . It was also big enough to accommodate 200 - 250 guests . It has a big dance floor , outdoor area to have a wedding ceremony and a fountain . The basic cost of the venue was the cheapest compared to other . However, they have a detailed list of renting cost every single item ( like dessert bowls , chair cover , dessert spoons, cocktail table , etc ) . I have enclosed a list for your reference. I would not recommend to come to this venue for the hidden costs and inconvenience. We did not appreciate the dinner banquet was only Buffett style . Saneta told us that they did not have the staffs and time to do table service. We were expecting an elegant dining banquet and were quite disappointed.

I always wanted to visit the house, but it only recently opened to the public has a house museum. I was fortunate to be able to join a small group for a private tour. As soon as we were met by a Docent in period dress the mood was set. Walking over the bridge to the house she started to tell the history of the Glass Family and the Valley as it was in 1877. Stepping though the door is really a step back in time. The nine room house is decorated as it would have been when the Glass family lived there. Everyone of the nine rooms was clean and not a bit of dust could be seen on the many knickknacks that the Victorians adorned their homes with. Everything in the house is original to the period. While the rugs, wallpaper, and some of the fabrics on furniture are new, they are all period reproductions. The knowledge that the two docents, Pat and Kim, shared was amazing. In addition to the story of the Glass family and the San Ramon Valley, they peppered their talk with some CA. history. I came away with even more of an appreciation of women in the 19th century working in those long dresses There is a connection between the Glass family and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. You will have to take a tour with either Pat or Kim to get the rest of the story.

I was a part of the planning committee and had a chance to work directly with the staff. Every person I interacted with was a true pleasure, professional, and extremely kind. The staff was really communicative and helpful throughout the process. I was extremely impressed on the day of the event. The planning team and the point of contact was always so responsive and thoughtful to the planning of the event. It really took away the stress and anxiety when it comes to planning a company event for 400 people. They helped us coordinate every step of the way. We got a chance to tour the facility, which it gave us a great idea of the layout and amenities. The day of the event was very fun and ran smoothly. We had someone help us with check in and also was there to greet each guest. She was a very lovely girl who was so helpful and welcoming to the guest by letting them know the amenities and schedule for the day. The staff all had blue shirts, which was easy to spot them and every one of them was so friendly. The food was really wonderful and we're so happy we chose the option we did. There was potato salad, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken wings, salad, beans, pesto salad, and rolls. The staff was very accommodating at the venue, they made sure to have plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. To top it all off, we had yummy snow cones that came in cherry red and tropical blue. The kids had really seemed to love the snow cones. We opted to have an open bar feature at the event, which the guests enjoyed beer and wine options. The venue was really beautiful and the trees provided much needed coverage from the summer sun. There were plenty of picnic tables for people to sit in various areas of the park. There were activities that included, bocce ball, swimming pool, horseshoe games, rock climbing wall, inflated golf course, bouncy house, basketball court, and volleyball court. This was such an amazing event and we had so much positive feedback from guests. The staff was really sweet and sent us a gift basket during Christmas. We hope for the opportunity to work with them again. I highly recommend this venue for events!

My daughter just had her wedding at this venue on 06-14-2026…read more We had many issues with support staff. Starting on June 12 for the rehearsal. After the rehearsal was completed the bridesmaids that didn't see the venue wanted to go look at the hall where the reception was being held. They just looked in the doorway to see the size of the room as it was a wedding being set up and someone approached him and said who are you and what are you doing here you need to leave. We did receive an apology from the wedding coordinator who was did an absolutely fabulous job, but the damage was done. The day of the wedding there is a bridal suite which is basically a converted closet or storage room for the bride to change and wait in prior to the beginning of the ceremony. The room was very hot and uncomfortable. There was no ventilation whatsoever.. After our initial photography session sessions, we requested the staff to turn on the AC. No AC was turned on in this particular room.. This happened no less than six times and then eventually my youngest daughter went again and the staff member threw her hands up and he said yes, we heard. Then another young lady got into it with my wife when my wife asked her for a fan numerous times .and my wife had asked for a fan several times. A staff member became upset and chastise my wife saying we were disrespecting them. Yes, we became upset because my daughter the bride was near fainting in this room.. they even suggested that we stay in the golf club, this was not what was planned. The bride was to be hidden. Their was guest everywhere. groomsmen that we're not supposed to see the bride prior to the event. The bride became faint and uncomfortable because of this awful room. So imagine being so hot you felt faint in the waiting room prior to you walking down the aisle. Not a good start.. So my daughter had an awful experience in the beginning of the wedding. The unfortunate part is the wedding coordinator was not helpful in anyway. Did not great the bride during arrival. The support staff seem bothered and annoyed ,not welcoming. This establishment should be ashamed of their staff for the way their staff treats their guests. Don't book here. Shameful
