On 3/2/2026 m wilson had this to say:
Great experience. John and the other staff members were great and very accommodating. Had a celebration of life event for my wife and the hall had everything I need. Servers during the event were excellent. Very reasonably priced compared to other venues I checked with charged for the hall and food separately. Hall was free basically paid for catering which was very good.
