My 50th Birthday Party This was the venue I went with…read moreafter searching about 4-6 event venues around metro Atlanta. I had specific requirements - Black, Woman Owned. Working with Danielle was such a pleasure and my event was amazing. Touring the venue is like an AirBNB host - you get a code and self-tour. Also, all the steps to book, make payments, coordinate the decor and even add-ons like bartenders, decorations, etc. were available through a portal which was very easy & professional. She was also available via text for random questions. My 50th planning committee was hands on & showed up early to get in at set up time. I also had my vendors - Bartender, DJ, photobooth and caterers set up before guests arrived. I had notified my guests when to arrive for my grand entrance! Overall, the perfect location for parking (free on the street), a unique setting, intimate and you can customize it to your liking. It felt like a Brooklyn loft and was a big hit! 10/10 highly recommend!

From my understanding, people were parking down the street once space in front was gone. There is a small kitchen in the back with a refrigerator and a sink. The bathroom was really cute and clean. The DJ area was spacious and nice also. There are buildings in shelves alongside one wall and bricks on the other. I absolutely loved the look and feel of this space. It was chic and rich with color. The hardwood floors only added to the beauty of this space. I would definitely recommend having events here. I don't know how many people it can hold, but I saw a lounge area, two large round tables, a full bar, and three long tables with food while I was here. Decorations were done by A Touch of Tanya G for this birthday party. www.atouchoftanyag.com

A Fantastic Venue for Any Event!…read more As wedding vendors (DJ, MC, and photographer), my husband and I had the pleasure of working at this beautiful venue, and we were thoroughly impressed!

After telling us everything she mentioned that we actually wouldn't be able to do most of the outdoor activities because a film crew is on the property and those areas are off limits (like SERIOUSLY?!) We were surprised no one warned us about this prior, they knew we were coming for a few weeks. We would have moved our reservation to a different weekend. The manager directed us to a small near by town to "go explore" for the day. We were sooo disappointed. We came to explore your "resort" not a near by town... Food was good but the service was terrible. Most of the time we were the only people at the restaurant and the staff could not care less. Drinks served were smaller than a corporate cocktail hour, in small plastic event cup. Bartender couldn't make a simple soda and vodka properly. We were just looking at each other and shaking our heads. This place has so much potential, it's poorly run and I wouldn't come back for a getaway. This might only be a venue for a large event but after our experience I'm not sure I would recommend it to my clients. P. S. Manager said she would adjust our rate for the weekend and that never happened. No one checked to see how our experience went after the visit. Do not recommend. There are better options around Atl for a getaway. 3/10

Beautiful surroundings, great food, and a sparkling pool!…read more Location and Parking Located in Douglasville, the property is expansive and is out in the country! Be prepared for spotty cell service as you travel miles off the main road into a tranquil escape. There is free parking directly in front of the clubhouse, where you will check in to enjoy your day. Venue and Atmosphere The clubhouse is recently renovated, bright, well appointed, and clean. We visited the pool and restaurant via a day pass. The pool area features lockers and showers, and they even have pool floaties that you can borrow, free of charge. The pool is large, with plenty of room for multiple groups to be inside and not bumping into anyone. There is a hot tub and adults only pool as well, however when we visited the adult pool was closed. Service Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. Our waitress and bartender were great. They were professional and the drinks were amazing! Food and Beverages We ordered a buffalo chicken wrap, hamburger, and many more margaritas than I'd like to admit (it's 5 o'clock somewhere right?). Everything was delicious, served hot, and the drinks were flavorful yet strong enough. Nothing on the lunch menu was too heavy, which was perfect because I like to digest my meal while relaxing in the pool. Verdict I'll definitely visit again. A pool day is always a nice treat, especially during the dog days of ATL summer!

I had my wedding reception in this venue at the end of May 2011, but signed the contract somewhere…read morearound last July. My ceremony was at the nearby O'Neal Plaza, I will do a seperate review for that experience. When I looked at this venue, one of the first things that I did was to pay attention to capacity. I knew that we were going to end up with a LOT of folks considering that we both have huge families and lots of friends, and we tend to be more inclusive than that turn folks away who wanted to have a great time. Great, the brochure says that this venue can accomodate 250 folks in a sit down style reception, 300+ if it is a theatre style, we should be fine... right? Hmm... after several months and visits to look at the site... wrong! Well, there is another side room to move the food, maybe we can put teenagers over in that room to make a little more space and we'll be good. Crisis averted, but I strongly caution that if you need this large space for full functionaltiy, that you make sure that you don't just read the literature that they provide. I went to visit this facility several times over the course of the months leading up to the wedding. I would see some people prepping days prior to their event if they needed to. But, I was repeatedly told (even in seeing others setting up for their events early) that I could not enter the facilty until the day of the event since someone else was having an event the day before. I asked if it were possible that I come in after they finished, no. I asked if we could pay to come earlier that morning, no. Emphatically no, it was impossible, could not do it. We happened to be at the facility the day before the wedding for rehearsal on the outdoors. The couple who had the facility had their wedding ceremony at the venue the day before us and had no intention of staying in the venue that entire night. So... we COULD HAVE set up early instead of getting it all in that morning? Thanks for your help... All in all, I enjoyed this venue for my reception. I suppose that there are going to be problems wherever you go. If I had it to do all over again, after reading my review on the outdoor O'Neal Plaza... my answer is yes, I'd pick another place.

We had our wedding ceremony in a section of the ballroom and our reception right next door with the half of the ballroom. We had about 100 guest who fit comfortably on both sides. Jennifer and her crew were very accommodating and welcoming and I have nothing but great things to say about them. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because we weren't able to pick our own caterer or even from a list of caterers. The center works exclusively with Proof of the Pudding(who are also good and food was very tasty) but I would have liked to be able to be given more than one option in caterers. Speaking from someone who was on a super tight budget, the caterer can make a huge difference.

My mother has terminal cancer and we ended up having to get married a year earlier than we planned so we were stressing about finding a venue that could put together our dream wedding in 5 months. We almost settled and gave up on that dream wedding until we found The Cotton Gin. I still have no idea how they pulled it off so seamlessly. The Cotton Gin went above and beyond to make the whole day smooth for both my mom and us. When they say "all inclusive" they mean it. I did not lift a single finger for coordinating vendors, stressing about timing, or anything that usually causes stress for brides. I was calm the whole day and if any anxiety arose at any point in the process, the staff reassured me and was proactive in accommodating anything I needed. The owner Amanda is a creative genius and you can tell she loves what she does. Her goal is to give all brides a dream wedding that fits their budget. You can tell that she put careful thought into choosing staff that has the same passion and vision. Truly I feel like I made bonds with the staff that will last a life time. All of my guests gave extremely positive feedback about their experience! Also, the food was literally a 5 star dining experience. I am going to be craving their salmon and stuffed mushrooms for the rest of my life. I wish I could get married to my husband again and again so I can give The Cotton Gin more of my business!!

Staff was very calm and professional and kept the appetizers coming. Bar offered a lot of interesting drinks. The venue itself is gorgeous with very little of your own decorating needed. They literally took care of everything it seemed. Lots of places to take pictures. We had beef mashed potatoes and asparagus, which came out temperature hot and well seasoned. The shrimp and grits for the appetizer was delicious and the presentation of the cheeses was wonderful. A beautiful, intimate and cozy place with a couple levels, including a dance floor. I would highly recommend this place if you're interested in having a wedding reception.

The beds were much firmer than I prefer, and the room wasn't as clean as it should have been. There were dirty pink washcloths left in the shower when we arrived, which was pretty gross and made me question how thoroughly the room had been cleaned. I even took pictures because at first I thought someone in my group had left them there, but no one had. The bathtub was also a concern. It had a raised platform design that wasn't obvious until you stepped inside. The tub became extremely slippery during our showers, and we both almost slipped getting out. It definitely felt like a safety hazard. On the positive side, the breakfast was decent, and the location is excellent. It's surrounded by just about everything you could need--restaurants, gas stations, shopping, and even Costco--so it's very convenient. Overall, the location is the hotel's biggest strength, but because of the cleanliness issues and the uncomfortable room, I probably wouldn't choose to stay here again.
