I had an overall great experience coming here a few weeks ago. My boyfriend, his brothers and…read morefriend came on a weeknight. It was not crowded at all. They had a nice little bar room as well. Drinks were affordable and the staff was very attentive. They had bowling balls of all sizes and shoes of all sizes as well. Usually I get grossed out about how bowling alley shoes are but the ones I received were not tore up or gross. We had two lanes to ourselves and played around 3 games each which costed us all about $38. It was not so bad. I believe a pitcher of beer was under $10, so I think that is a great deal. It has a big parking lot and lots of space so you do not feel like you are on top of everyone.

Just the average bowling alley. Tangerine is much more clean and well maintained and more modern…read more You can't beat $5 all you can bowl on Thursday nights 9:15-12:00! A great deal!

I've never been to this part of the area before and the views and reviews seemed up to par. So we drove up during the weekend and the drive itself was just wonderful especially during the fall season. We arrived right when it opened and the location is breath taking. There is so many spots to sit outside and walk around. Different views and decks. It was just wow. Very cute. On the inside they have big windows and high ceilings. The owner is just wonderful. They have been open for selling wine since 2002. And he really knows his stuff! We did a wine tasting which was free for the first 3 but after that it is $1 per taste. We did about 4 more after that. We grabbed our favorites for a walk around the area. They have such a good taste all of them! Also they have these slushees for the summer season. My boyfriends mom tried both and said pina colada was her favorite. We had a wonderful time, bought some bottles. And we will be back again!

This wine is hands down the best in the area. We had such a good time. Showed up at 4pm and still…read morereceived great service!

Picking a wedding photographer is one of the biggest decisions you can make. Buy a bad house? Sell…read moreit. That fedora? Burn it. But get bad wedding photos? You can't just go re-create it with a different photographer. The choice to go with Ms. Lee was definitely one of the best we made for that day (and before/after!) The package choices are fantastic and make the "shopping" experience smooth, simple, and care-free. The fact that Ms. Lee is available digitally (Skype) for initial meetings and any/all questions was fantastic ESPECIALLY for couples like my wife and I getting married local to Ms. Lee but living more remote. Setting up the Engagement Session was a breeze, with Ms. Lee taking our input and providing her own politely in the best way to meld both and make the day go fantastic. It truly showed her professionalism and expertise. We could not thank her enough with including our dog and how wonderful she was with him (he doesn't like cameras, haha go figure!) The big day itself was great! She was there early to ensure lighting conditions were good and to get all the pre-shots we could ask for and stayed to make sure she was able to capture all the fun into the night. She truly captured the moments we wanted and we are both very happy with how everything turned out! So much so in fact that we contacted Ms. Lee for a follow-up purchase of a canvas which looks absolutely amazing. Ms. Lee is top-notch and I can absolutely recommend her for your day/event/gathering/whatever!!! You won't be disappointed.

Using the theme "Kelsee Found Her Main Squeeze," a lemon themed shower could not have been more of a hit. From fresh floral arrangements using lemons in the vases, lemon designed signs, table settings, game cards and a photo backdrop with props, everything was meticulously executed. We made homemade lemon soaps, used Janean Rizza for artfully themed cookies and a naked cake that even wedding cakes would envy. The event was perfect and I can't recommend Gilded Lace Events more!

Was disappointed at the breakfast only because they had no options for diabetics or gluten free people except an apple. We ended up not being able to eat here but it looked good if you wanted a carb loaded breakfast. They had biscuits, gravy, home fries, waffles, sugared oatmeal, sugared cereals (Frosted Flakes and fruit loops), toast, English muffins and bagels. No meats, no eggs and no other fresh fruit but apples were offered. If they had any kind of eggs or any kind of a meat option I would have been happy. First hotel I've even been at without that as a choice. The stay was fine and we had no issues.
