My review is for a targeted readership. If you are working families and you are looking for a nice…read morefacility for your child's wedding, check this place out. We all want our children to have a lifetime memory, yet not have to take out a second mortgage out to make it happen. The rates were more than fair, and you get some very important amenities needed for a lovely event. My niece had her wedding here, and it was just as perfect as she hoped it would be. Bar area, a sequestered room for bride and bridesmaids, plenty of bathroom facilities, stage, lights, great sound system, ADA friendly, and even some leisure games in a back corner to occupy the young ones who always get bored with adult functions.You also get the owner. He's a good young dude, is all over the place taking care of things, and is genuinely proud of what he is bringing to the community. And, any little hiccup that might occur is quickly taken care of because....he's there. Our whole family was very impressed with him. Here is an option that I can heartily recommend for working families. Consider the MEC when you are planning your event and being budget conscious...

This is a venue to be rented. I attended an Edgar Allen Poe Speakeasy event here and I could not…read moreimagine a better place for it. A couple weeks later we were dining in the Flour Mill building, where this spot resides, and I wanted to show my son the place we met in because it was so cool with its brick arches and old world stone walls. Luckily, it was prepared for a wedding the next day and they had just finished rehearsal. It worked great as a wedding spot as well! So glad as the guy attending to the space said the elevator wouldn't have worked to let us in otherwise. A sign in one of the sub chambers states it's available for cocktail parties. This place is awesome and I would highly recommend it for your event in an old world dungeon environment.

Overall? Near perfection. Kelsey was lovely to work with (and Janine prior to the handoff). They…read moredealt with my neurotic number-crunching and attention to detail so well. Friends and family loved the staff. We got rave reviews for the bartender. We very much enjoyed interacting with the Event Captain and she made sure the entire event went off without a hitch. Catering was delicious. We got legitimate compliments on the food. Nobody ever remembers the food at a wedding reception but Red Rock Catering crushed it. The physical space was great - indoors and out. Chateau Rive worked with our florist, the photo booth folks, the DJ and the dessert setup to absolutely create the best arrangement possible. Our 114 guest count fit into the reception area just right. I really can't stress enough just how amazing this experience was and how fantastic everyone at Chateau Rive was.

Living next to Mica Event Hall has been incredibly frustrating. During events, guests regularly…read morecome onto our property, chase our chickens, park up and down the road making it difficult for residents to get through, and even drive into our driveway. It has become a repeated problem that seriously affects the surrounding neighbors. What is even more concerning is that, to our knowledge, the building still does not have a proper occupancy approval, despite concerns being brought to the county multiple times. Nothing meaningful seems to have been done to address the situation. As far as we can tell, there are also no wheelchair-accessible restrooms available for guests, only portable toilets outside. We understand people want a place to celebrate events, but there also needs to be responsibility, respect for neighbors, and compliance with basic safety and accessibility standards. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience.

I predict this will become the new trendy wedding venue for people looking for an off the beaten path locale. The Lodge is located on Liberty Lake. The main home is set up on a hill, but there is a grassy meadow that you can get quite a few white tents on! It is surrounded by woods and it feels like summer camp meets quaint old estate. It seemed like it was available to rent out the big main home or smaller cabins for retreats as well.

They will cater the whole event and leave you with time to enjoy the occasion without having to worry about the minor details.

I bragged to my friend before we went and was so embarrassed by the overcooked tough ribs. he wasn't impressed in the least. I'm not wasting my time or money next year. what a rip off.

Buyer Beware. There is an event coming in June called…read more"Discovery Fire". This was actually called From the Ashes. Be careful IF you buy tickets. Here is my experience: I purchased 2 VIP tickets for both Friday & Saturday events. This was to be a gift. A few days before I needed to give this gift, they cancelled the event. (But they did not really cancel. They changed the name "From the Ashes" to "Discovery Fire." I spoke with both people in charge of handling the event (the person who set everything up (From the Ashes) and the Settlers Inn person (Discovery Fire) who is now handling it. I was told that those who only bought the one day are fine but those who bought both days now had to buy again. They would NOT sell me tickets over the phone. They said I would need to go to the website again to purchase tickets. The website charges fees. The refund will not include fees. Not a big deal except I shouldn't have to pay additional fees that I have already paid. Their answer: So sorry. We cannot do anything about it. I am very angry. I have a very short time to try to find another gift for my son. Buyer beware: This event may or may not take place. IF you purchase tickets, they still may cancel the event. Customer service is very lacking. BEWARE: From the Ashes Idaho 2023 is now Discovery Fire, a live fire cooking event by Settlers Creek Events.

We just had our daughter's wedding here last weekend and it was an ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL experience from start to finish. The owners, Sandra and Douglas, are AMAZING people to work with!! We hired Sandra as the wedding coordinator and she knows her stuff!! She is very easy to work with and extremely helpful in the planning process. She helped us with things we would have never thought of. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The views are gorgeous! The vendors she works with were great as well. I really can't say enough good things about the Lavender Manor!! If you have a special occasion to celebrate, please go to the Lavender Manor! Thank you, Sandra and Douglas, for helping create a very special and memorable day for my daughter and her husband and all of our guests!!

The landscape was very nice with lavender bushes all around. They have a gorgeous barn where the bridesmaids all got ready, and then a little shed for the groomsmen. After the ceremony they opened the barn up, and while it was a small layout, it was amazing to have a spot to escape the sun. The dance floor was perfectly lit and could not have been a better sized! There's nothing worse than too small of a dance floor so no one can fit, or to big of one to make it feel like it's empty. And the staff!!!! Professional/ friendly. While I could tell they worked there, they merged with the guests to blend in. I would absolutely recommend this venue
