Very disappointed with my experience at this venue in Calumet Park. After my event, I was told my…read moredeposit wouldn't be returned due to "shoe prints on the walls." I asked for photo proof--none was provided. My family and I cleaned thoroughly, and no one noticed any such issue. I even offered to meet at the venue to inspect the space, and that was ignored. The owner also mentioned police presence outside due to teens waiting on rides--calling it "loitering"--but even stated a fine was avoided. That shouldn't be tied to my deposit at all. When the police weren't actually called to the venue itself. The reason for withholding it, according to their own message, was just the alleged footprints, which they refused to prove. I reviewed the contract and followed all cleaning policies. This feels like a poor excuse to keep my deposit without cause. Renters, protect yourselves--take photos before and after, get everything in writing, and be cautious with this space.

I cannot recommend Kidsmania enough!! I had such a busy month that suddenly I realized my…read moredaughter's birthday was only a few weeks away and I hadn't planned anything, and found myself panic-googling "kid's party near me". Well I found Kidsmania and am so glad I did! Online booking and upfront pricing/ easy to use website was extremely helpful, and from there Izabela was easy to communicate with and very responsive. She offered multiple add-ons that were super fun, and we chose the Art Party + cotton candy machine. Izabela hand- drew beautiful animations that went with our theme on canvases for the kids (and also added two more kids only 24 hours prior to the party as well!). Everything inside was clean and decorated beautifully (I do not know of a single other kid's party location where decor is included in the pricing, which truly made a huge difference for us!). If you are wondering if their play area seems a little too young for older toddlers, I can say with confidence that the 12 kids we had there, aging 4-8 years, all had a blast and never ran out of things to do. I can easily see this becoming a go-to spot for rainy/ winter days! Thank you so much Kidsmania!

There is shrimp cocktail and salmon on the buffet table. Once everyone is ready for the turkey, they present the the whole turkey to the table prior to carving. Then the sides are served to the table. There was sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberries, green beans and carrots and gravy served with the carved turkey. Left overs are packed. Good food but still miss home cooking but for the price you can't beat it. Show up hungry and eat, no clean up.

We were here for a wedding reception. When you enter, coat check is right there and then a grand staircase leads to the second floor. There was a nice bar and a welcoming fireplace. French doors open to a small patio and overlooks the golf course. There were French doors on either side of the bar opening into the room where the reception was being held. BUT, only one set was being used as an entrance because otherwise, the doors of the other entrance would have opened right into people. The corner table was right there. Eventually, someone opened one side of the set, but it was not convenient, by any stretch. Service was speedy and food was very good.

First I had to ask the staff to provide water to all of my guest. Some of my guest asked for extra bread and they were told that they ran out of it. The food was horrible. Half of my guest received raw chicken, the beef was tough, the mashed potatoes were very dry there was no gravy for them and when I asked the staff for a knife for the meat they said they didn't have any. When I mentioned to the owner that I hope my guest didn't get sick because of the raw chicken all he said was that he hoped that they didn't get sick either. I wouldn't recommend this anyone. This was an awful overall experience!

Not only is the setting beautiful, but we could tell from the beginning that our occasion mattered to Silver Lake staff. For something as meaningful as a wedding, you want to feel special. We felt supported and in good hands; that feeling was consistent throughout the planning process as I planned our wedding (without planner) and had many questions to ask Janene along the way. Amy was super hands-on for the day-of, making sure things went according to plan. She even made our rehearsal fun. Our guests all had a great time as well and have complimented us on the food service. I'd do it all over again, truly. Thank you Silver Lake!

I came in today with themes of ideas hoping that this business can help showcase some ideas of the elements that I present. I thought that is a fair request being this is their claimed speciality. The woman who was there to help, Anna, was not pleasant. She wanted concrete set ideas and told me, "My problem is you don't know what you want." This is only one of the other rude things I can name. I was standing there self soothing myself and at the same time feeling like I needed to use de-escalation skills that I teach at work. It seems all so ridiculous! As a business, wouldn't you think that a place would try to build rapport with you? Her tone was intense and did not fit the joyful energy I would want when planning for a wedding. I couldn't take it after a while. I am at least glad I made her aware that her tone was not appreciated and that I am leaving. I would not come back and I would not recommend for those still building the vision of your event.
