    I was a guest for a corporate event and there was 0 effort to be proactive regarding the bad…read moreweather. As a 100% outdoor activity event center located in a flood-prone area, you'd think they'd have a plan. I don't blame the weather on them, but I do expect that they figured out how to create the best experience in spite of it, hours and days before, rather than just shrug and go, 'oh well'. The weather forecast was VERY confident that heavy rain would be there 24+ hours before - all local channels, Space City Weather, Jeff Lindner - it was a SURE thing. For example, bring the food under the tent BEFORE the time we were supposed to be eating, instead of wasting 45 minutes trying to rig a 'path' so we don't get wet waiting in line, even though the biggest problem there was water pooling and mud. The restroom is about a football field away from the only covered area we could remain, so they should have rented a port-o-potty to be closer, or have those plastic sidings to their golf carts to assist people in the mud and rain. Props to the Sheriff's Deputy that seemed more customer service oriented than the staff - he was telling us what was going on and seemed like he wished he could do more. Meanwhile they said they had a lot of staff milling about because the outdoor activities were canceled - not sure why they weren't pushing all the standing water out of the tent, or passing out food, etc. The store bought cookies they brought out were an after-thought, because they canceled the pre-arranged Funnel Cakes but didn't tell anyone. There were so many things canceled or cut short that still could have been managed with some preparation - like more tent siding they could drop down to stop rain from coming under the smaller tent. The food was good, but there was so little of it! I don't think they served the amount that was paid for, we ran out of some things. I can tell they're used to handling young kids, because they were treating us grown adults like we only eat 2 small pieces of brisket, 3 sausage slices and 2 tablespoons of potato salad! I was excited about the petting zoo - I'm sure the animals were safe inside a barn away from the rain. Again, if they had their golf carts prepped for rain, they could have offered to drive us back and forth to see them. There's a lot of risk mitigation that needs to be learned for an event facility such as this - if your event is expecting rain, cancel or reschedule!

    I can't say how the facility is because I never got to book. I reached out to Lazy Acres on FB on…read moreMarch 1st. I was looking for a banquet room venue for my daughter's sweet 16 party in December. I reached out, and they confirmed that the date I was interested in was available. I let her know approximately how many people and expressed interest in using her catering services. My daughter chose steak and potatoes, and I wanted to add a large charcuterie board. I was told that someone would get back to me in a few days with a quote price. I never heard back, and it's May. My husband brought up a good point thinking that there were probably a lot of big company Christmas parties in December, so my little party was probably not a priority booking during thst busy time. I get it, if that's the case. It's just not good to tell someone you will get back to them in a couple of days, then don't. It's May 3rd. Luckily, I found another place I like even more in Waller County to have her party. I understand choosing priority bookings, but I don't understand not following up at all, even if it is to tell me that my date was no longer available.

The staff put a lot of attention to detail into every room. Everything was exceptionally clean and well organized. And if you are into workmanship, pay attention to the building details. A lot of work went into ensuring everything looked right. The amenities are great. The pool, the pond, the open fields, the trails; everything is well maintained - and this is over 100 acres! The restaurant and events room are very nice. The food is very well prepared and I highly recommend the five course dinner. This is a boutique establishment so portions are not like you'd see at a chain. However, the five course was just right for us. The only somewhat negative thing I can write about is their in-room wifi. If you're in for the night and would like to watch tv, you'll be frustrated quickly as the streams pause a lot to buffer. I don't know if it's their bandwidth limitation by their ISP or poor wifi design. Be it as it may, this is certainly something that's not a big deal as you really should enjoy your time there, take a walk, disconnect, and just live.

    We visited The Historic Hill House and Farm in Willis, Texas, for a wedding, and overall, we had a…read morewonderful experience. The property is located about an hour from IAH Airport, and the route was very direct and easy to navigate. We stayed in one of their cabins, which was beautifully decorated and very spacious. If you enjoy a rustic atmosphere, this is definitely the place for you. The cabins were comfortable and fit perfectly with the charm of the property. All of the wedding events were held in the main building. We attended the rehearsal dinner, which featured a buffet-style Mexican meal with flour and corn tortillas, pinto beans, yellow rice, chicken and beef strips with peppers, corn chips, queso, and a variety of toppings. I have to say, the yellow rice was absolutely delicious! For dessert, they served a bread pudding that was out of this world. Honestly, it reminded me more of monkey bread than traditional bread pudding, and it was delicious. We returned the following morning for breakfast, which included yogurt, egg frittata, French toast, bacon, coffee, and juices. My only small disappointment was that maple syrup was not available; they only offered agave. Also, decaf coffee was not readily available, so you had to ask for it. The wedding itself was beautiful. During cocktail hour, they served chicken on a stick and a cheesy bread appetizer. Being from New Jersey, where we are used to cocktail hours with an endless variety of food, I have to admit I was expecting a few more options! Dinner was also served buffet-style and included Brussels sprouts, potatoes, prime rib, and chicken. Everything we tried was delicious. I'm not sure how often it rains in Willis, but it certainly did while we were there! Fortunately, the cabins were equipped with umbrellas, which was a thoughtful touch and definitely came in handy. Before arriving, I interacted with a woman named Frankie, and I have to give her special recognition. Frankie seemed like a one-woman show! She was there all three days and appeared to do everything--from serving guests and moving tables to helping run the events, making coffee, and assisting behind the bar. I honestly don't know if she was also involved in preparing the food, but nothing would surprise me! I was so impressed by her work ethic that I kept telling my family, "I hope they're tipping her well!" Overall, The Historic Hill House and Farm is a charming and beautiful venue, especially for anyone who appreciates a rustic setting. The cabins were spacious and beautifully decorated, the food was delicious, and the staff worked incredibly hard to make the events run smoothly. Frankie, in particular, left a lasting impression on me because of how hard she worked throughout our entire stay.
