Wide range of cheese and crackers, olives and fruit. The pasta was Alfredo and Marinara sauces. They had buffalo chicken and artichoke dip as well.

I wanted a "one stop shop" because this wedding/party planning thing is way out of my wheelhouse, but I was a little worried that a place that does it all might not do all things well. I needn't have worried. My outdoor wedding was beautifully decorated, from the ceremony site to the reception tables. My bridal floral was gorgeous! The food was truly amazing - I am still getting comments about how good it was! On top of it all, the staff was great! Kimberly and Kelly helped me figure our exactly what I wanted, and they put it all together beautifully. Sheila, from the catering staff, did a wonderful job coordinating everything on our wedding day. Thank you, Best Events! You helped to make our day just perfect!

Like so many, my wife and I were ready for a respite from our COVID-19 exile. Two nights at the…read moreelegant Hamilton House was just what the doctor ordered! Built in the 1860s and a stop on the Underground Railroad, the spacious, high-ceilinged HH exudes history and charm. Innkeeper and owner Gloria Buley greeted us warmly; I like to think I could see her smile through the surgical mask she was wearing. Our well-appointed room had a comfy king bed and a recently remodeled en suite. The wardrobe contained two plush bathrobes; a small table held bottles of Perrier, chocolates, fresh flowers, and two surgical masks. Like our room, the inn's common areas are immaculate and tastefully furnished with period antiques and Oriental rugs. Our two breakfasts were highlights! Gloria's a CIA culinary school grad and it shows. Fresh-squeezed OJ, omelettes, French toast, baked apples, sausages, Canadian bacon--whew, I don't eat nearly this well at home. Breakfast was also a chance to get to know Gloria. A recent transplant from Woodstock, NY, she purchased the Hamilton House weeks before the coronavirus shut down the world. I'd be down in the dumps, but Gloria seems indefatigable and is using the time to, among other things, install a garden walk that will pay homage to the nearby Birge Fountain, circa 1903. We're already looking forward to our next visit! A tip: One of Wisconsin's best supper clubs, the Duck Inn in Delavan, is a 15-minute drive from the HH.

My brother and his wife treated me to a weekend at the Hamilton Inn. (They had stayed there a year…read moreago and raved about it - for good reason!) This gorgeous 1861 mansion is exquisite, perfect down to the last detail. The multi-course breakfasts, created by innkeeper (and Culinary Institute-trained chef) Gloria, were off-the-charts delicious and kept my belly full til dinnertime, even after a day spent hiking the gorgeous Kettle Moraine. I slept deeply on the luxurious comfy bed, but I'd eat saltine crackers and sleep on a cot to hear Gloria's stories! Gloria has a talent for being present but never intrusive. She'll give you a house tour with fascinating tidbits (from John Belushi to the Underground Railroad!) but ask about her journey from Woodstock NY to Whitewater WI for a rollicking story with a happy ending!

I contacted Best Events for a tent rental for my outdoor wedding. The phone service by Kimberly was…read morespectacular. However, when it came to setting the tent up, the crew had to make 3 trips back to Janesville (1 hour each direction). The tent was installed later than the verbally agreed upon time, but I was glad it was up. The morning of the wedding, the tent sides were 24" off the ground and blowing in, and there was no gutter between the two tents. It was rainy and windy, so this meant that there was not a dry place under the tent. In a hurry, I called Best Events and dealt with Kimberly again, she was fantastic and had a crew out there ASAP to fix up the tent the best they could. I give them 4 stars because I expect a certain level of competence when I pay over $900 for a tent. It should have been up closer to the timeline that was agreed upon, I understand things happen. The sides should have been closer to the ground, but I understand this style of side is higher (though it was not explained to me from the beginning). All in all, this would have been a 2 star rating, however Kimberly was so easy to work with, and the director, Rod, made things right in the end.

This place is a little out of the way, but worth the drive. The food is quite good, better than you typically get with a place that is primarily a bar. Had a very authentic Chicago Dog with fries; the wife had a salad that had a variety of nice fresh greens and grilled chicken. Very affordable prices too-- dinner and drinks for two came to $31. The locals know this as a fun event space; there was a kids party going on downstairs when we arrived, complete with a bouncy house that was brought in. We will be back on our next visit to the area.
