This place seemed nice for the kids. Not too big and some of the staff seemed a little mean and non approachable but I think it’s still a cool place for kids to come and have fun. 🙏
BETOSONJul 26, 2025My experience was easygoing because it is in an area that is pleasant, quiet, available parking, nice size room for your occasion of baby showers, receptions, etc I was there on a Saturday and no other functions were going on but ours.
Danielle JacksonMay 19, 2024Rented a party room for my daughter's bday.... great facility, but they are slow returning your security deposit. They guy says you'll get it in 7 days after your event, but he doesn't mail it until like the 7 day
High voltage LandscapingApr 29, 2023Had my daughter's birthday party here years ago. Everyone was very nice and very helpful. I've been back a few times for various things always with a pleasant outcome.
Mike WalkerJan 8, 2022My grandson birthday party was there and it was just nice, it was roomie and clean. As many times as I went past there I didn't know it was that nice in there. I will be going back
ladonna johnsonNov 9, 2021So disappointed. I have the privilege of being a Caregiver to a woman that just turned 80. Unfortunately her immediate family doesn't live here. Her daughter planned the milestone birthday party. She lives in Texas and explained her vision via phone. She was assured they could accommodate her special day. Put down a substantial amount to secure the venue. Flew in, walked in the next day completely devastated. Was given a tour and her Mother didn't meet up until almost 10 minutes later. When you're older accessibility is key. The bathroom was not even close. The room provided no privacy. Three strikes you're out. When it was clear that they couldn't provide what was promised she asked for a refund. The Event Manager absolutely refused to refund a penny. Unfortunately people were flying in and she had to find another venue. She found a great venue at the last minute, but that upped the costs. Losing money to River Forest didn't help. Despite everything it was a great night. I only wish River Forest would have been honest and at least given some type of refund for the inconvenience. Sorry to be so long winded, but 80 is a BIG deal. And right is right. I hope other customers are treated better.
