★★★★★Danny S

Nice atmosphere and friendly front desk personnel.

★★★★★Katrina Sims

This is a very nice community center and has a very nice place to reserve for parties as well

★★★★Anne Murray

This is a great Community Center. We rented it for a few hours to host a funeral repass and it was perfect. It was very spacious, clean and had two pool tables. There is plenty of parking and with the event center being on one side, we had some privacy from the rest of the community center guests. The only negative thing was that there was poor lighting in the hallway leading up to the bathrooms.
