This center has plenty of rooms/spaces for rent for different events. You can also vote here. But what I love is the variety of free daily activities that provide for people of all abilities. It's a great place for leisure and recreation and you get to meet others in the community. The staff is friendly and helpful, especially with the setups. There's also a walking trail outside and plenty of parking. They also have a resource wall full of information like events and assistance.

To be honest, I haven't had much of a need to visit the Kingwood Community Center. That being said,…read moreit is a gorgeous facility. It seems like they are always holding some sort of event for the community - mainly for seniors. My recent experience here was to early vote in the 2020 Presidential election. The line was all the way out the door and down the sidewalk and across the parking lot as this was the first day of early voting. Parking was a bit tough to find and so I parked in the adjacent Metro Park and Ride lot. The inside of the building was immaculate. I could tell that the staff there takes great pride in keeping it clean and tidy. I was pleased with my experience at this community center and can't wait for all of the various programs to come back so that I may partake in them. Covid has really put a damper on things this year. Kudos to the individuals involved with the Kingwood Community Center and keep up the great work!

We hosted our daughter's 15th birthday at Batres Grand Venue. Our entire experience with them was…read moreoverwhelmingly exceptional and stress free. From our initial meeting to view the venue, to discussing contest details, making selections on options and every other step, the team at Batres made what we feared would be a stressful process easy and smooth. They package services with quality vendors and allow installment payments which made payments easy. The venue is beautiful. The staff were professional, polite and helpful. The owner was responsive to questions and potential concerns. The event coordinators helped us incorporate our own personal touches to make the experience unique and personalized to us. They helped give our daughter a fabulous celebration. We highly recommend this facility for parties, weddings and similar events!

Maggie and Marisol were very detailed and attentive to all our wants and needs. They made sure to follow up as well as give profesional advice to make everything smooth through out the year of us planning. As a bride finding a venue that included all the vendors made the wedding planning stress free. The day of the actual reception the whole staff made sure to constantly check on us and made sure we weren't with out food or beverage. The Dj Coordinator Jay made sure to have a great variety of music that everybody enjoyed. Controlling the crowd very well, keeping the atmosphere fun. Mario the bartender, gave great suggestions on drinks to help make the perfect bar menu for our guests. Weve recieved positive compliments from our guests on how well the bar staff prepared their drinks. Overall you can not go wrong with booking Batres Grand Venue. If you are looking for a venue to book your next event this is the venue to book!

Do not look to book any event here. Very unprofessional. Rude customer service. I had scheduled a…read moretour of the venue in advance. My appointment was at 6:30 on a Thursday. At 8:26 the night before my set tour appointment I got a text message saying that they could not host my tour but that I would "be able to tour the venue on your own." That I would be provided with a code once I arrived to be able to tour this venue myself. I did text back to no reply. I had to call again around three on Thursday, the day of my appointment, to get my follow up questions on how this was supposed to work since I would be by myself and would have questions about the venue. I am planning for my wedding. At any venue I have toured never have I been notified the day before that I would not have a host. Much less THAT I WOULD BE TOURING A FACILITY THAT HAD OTHER PEOPLE ALSO TOURING AT THE SAME TIME. Through the website to bill there are different time appointments and no where did it say that it would be a group tour much less without a host. When I called again they said that they don't honor appointment time and that this was normal for them. I felt so uncomfortable with having another family there that I just left. I felt so embarrassed. This is supposed to be for my big day and no one was helpful or attentive. Not even to message me back. AGAIN DO NOT BOOK HERE.

Once a week or two she starts avoiding calls etc. I think alot of the decorations are out dated just plain old. The chairs are not similiar. She CLEARLY stated they would be for our event. The center pieces were crap. A two year old could have done better. The week of the event we were supposed to have 1-2 days to go in and she said "I DO NOT HAVE TIME TODAY, IF YOU DONT LIKE IT THEN CANCEL THE PARTY" A lot of minor details that she just did not help.

For starters, the place looks nice and setup pretty well; there's a nice size kitchen to move around in also. Downers, there was an unknown waterfall in the kitchen as well. When we tried using the sink out of nowhere water SPRUNG up from the side of the faucet! It took a team effort to try and maneuver washing our hands/using the sink without getting soaked. Once the event was almost over the owners came in unannounced WITH CAMERAS filming everything! HOW RUDE! We were like "WHO are these people?!" We didn't know if were some strangers who just popped in or what. Then after it registered who it was it dawned on us that they must be trying to see if they could catch someone or something going on that shouldn't. Then they had the nerve to say "WHO removed the top on this," referring to the "waterfall. :/ Like don't try to make it seem as if this was JUST noticed - VERY tacky. I was not the host for the event, but I assisted in the activities, and would NOT have been pleased with them parading in like they did in front of my desk. Also, the WiFi was a mess to figure out; otherwise you could not get a good signal.

I've been a member here for three years and have very much enjoyed the golf course however while…read morethe dues are relatively inexpensive at times I feel like I'm way over paying for what I get. Pros: 18 Hole Palmer managed course that's well kept and always challenging. Plenty of social events. Swimming pool, tennis courts, racquetball, and gym all included in the golf membership. Cons: Poor job communicating with the membership. New "rules" come and go with little notice or explanation. For example... you can't bring your own can of soda to the pool but they'd be happy to sell you the same can for $1.50. dumb. Kitchen has really gone downhill since we first joined. Thanksgiving brunch used to be awesome but now it's below average... same goes for Christmas and Easter. Wednesday dinners turned into pasta Wednesday... been the same thing for 2 years now... gettin' old (actually to the point where we don't go to that anymore). I've had multiple billing errors... They've always fixed them but why do they happen in the 1st place? All in all a nice amenity in a good community but really nothing to write home about.
