"First time visitor. A lot we don’t know about logistics of the venue that others could contribute better. However, our experience was wonderful! The food was varied and good. Beverages were the same and easy to acquire. No shortage of people to ask questions. I thought the sound was great! Add to the very attractive facility. Sitting near the speakers could be too much so pack some earplugs if you’re concerned. Heels may not be easy to hike up and down to the restrooms. More artists need to play here!"

"Absolutely love coming here for the concerts! Just saw Train and Yacht Rock Review last night. What a great show! The acoustics are amazing, and I highly suggest getting seats in the Orchestra section, section 1 to be exact, seats 5-10 will make it seem like you're dead center."
