Dan Bevers: Was a very nice place for our Small class reunion..

Lisa Logan: EXCELLENT'

Harley Engle: Just recently had my wedding reception at Sweetwater. It was absolutely perfect! The location is fantastic especially if you have guests from out of town. We were able to walk to the hotel since it was right next door. Laura is wonderful and always had the answers to my questions and concerns! The whole Sweetwater staff were incredibly nice and professional. It was the perfect place for a wedding reception!

C.J. Jordan: Our experience at Sweetwater was outstanding in all ways. Laura is a consummate professional who is excellent at her job, responsive to all questions and requests, and gave us several tips as an event coordinator that saved us time, money and stress. We planned our daughter's wedding reception from another state, and I cannot adequately express how helpful she was in all aspects, from recommending hotel contacts to local vendors such as catering, flowers, hairdressers, you name it. The location is great and our guests loved the reception. Highly recommended!

Valery Updike: Excellent venue for a wedding, featuring outdoor and indoor options for the ceremony. Laura, the coordinator, was so awesome leading up to and on our big day. She and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had the perfect wedding and reception with our family and friends.

Debbie Moretto: Great place to have an event. Our 50 +1 class reunion was last night and it was awesome. Stage for band, bar and dance floor. Food was very good too!!

Tiff Wash: The location is absolutely beautiful & Laura is awesome! Booking the venue for our wedding also gave us Laura as the event coordinator for our big day & she did an awesome job! Everything from the beginning of the process til the end went very smooth. Our wedding came together so beautiful, along with all the highly recommended vendors that Laura coordinates with. It was a perfect/ stress free day for the bride & groom! We highly recommend Sweetwater for events!

amy Rideout: My 13 year old son loves this company! He sends me links of what he wants then Within 2-3 days we receive it! We also reciwve stickers, candy, a new catalog, and a follow up "thank you" call. Their customer service is amazing as well as the quality of their products.

Lauri Maynard: Went to a seminar there. Awesome facility & catering.

Fat Suit Alese: The servers and bartenders were very nice and courteous. The facility it in a nice location with a beautiful view of a pond. The facility was very clean and smelled nice.

Ian Welsh (Rabbitslayer): Basic layout with a large bar. Best for a large group of 50 or more.

Tyler Dixon: I had a good experience here. The grounds were well kept, the facility was clean and nicely decorated and the staff was on it like clockwork. There is plenty of parking and room for large gatherings. They had a few areas set up that are good for pictures. From what I understand, they just do catering, and they're good at it. Thanks for the wonderful evening.

Kristin Lilly: The Bauerhaus really makes sure you are taken care of. Our wedding was less traditional than others, but Tara and her team went out of their way to adjust things and make everything work for us. Thank you for making our wedding the perfect day!

Mara Cruz: The Bauerhaus was absolutely amazing and helped make the wedding so easy and beautiful! Planning from a different state can be really difficult but they made it a breeze and had everything running smoothly on our wedding day! 100% recommend for weddings, our coordinator Tara was absolutely lovely to work with and made sure we had everything ready and it was the perfect fairytale wedding!

Jessi Dennis: Nice building. Kind staff. I was most excited by the fact that their vegetarian option was more than just salad on a plate.

Brianna Phillips: LOOK NO FURTHER!!! Absolutely by far THE BEST wedding venue there is in INDIANA. I can not put into words how grateful my now husband and I are to this venue. Tara (wedding coordinator/planner) is a rock star. I was pretty picky and had everything planned to a T and she took all that crazy information and created the wedding of our dreams. We were complemented all night that this was the best wedding they've ever been too. They take care of EVERYTHING. Best day of our lives.

Erick Patton: Absolutely AMAZING experience!! We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the staff was. They are all so helpful during setup and take down as well. By far the best bonus is getting to work with Tara. She makes sure everything goes smoothly and helps make the process go so easy.The venue is beautiful both inside and out. We were supposed to have an outdoor ceremony with a reception to follow, but the weather decided to turn and we woke up that morning to a couple inches of snow. We made the decision a couple days in advance to swap to having the ceremony inside, and you would have never known that we didn't plan that from the beginning. Tara and her staff made the inside ceremony work out perfectly. They even had a fireplace lit in the background and transitioned the downstairs from ceremony to reception super fast while the guests enjoyed cocktail hour upstairs.We also had our rehearsal dinner at The Bauerhaus, which I would highly recommend. The food and drinks are amazing. You get a large amount of food and from having been there several times for other weddings, the quality of the food has never failed to impress me.I can't thank Tara, Jim Bauer, and their staff enough for the amazing experience that we had!

Madison Smith: My husband and I had our wedding and reception at the Bauerhaus in September! Their entire team made wedding planning so easy they really know what they are doing and the entire day went seamless. Tara was our wedding coordinator and she was truly the best!!! I would highly recommend Bauerhaus for your next event they are so incredible to work with!

Alyssa Brothers: The Bauerhaus and all of the staff there are so amazing! We had the best experience working with them. They helped make our wedding vision come to life and it was so perfect. A few days before the wedding, we had to make the decision to have the ceremony inside due to cold weather, which I was initially disappointed about but ended up absolutely loving it. It was beautiful and cozy with all the fireplaces, and the staff were amazing and so efficient, flipping the entire downstairs to be reception ready within a few minutes after the ceremony. Tara was amazing to work with and helped make the day run so smoothly. She was always so helpful and knowledgeable with all the preparation leading up to the wedding and made me feel at ease. We also had our rehearsal dinner there the night before which worked out perfectly and the food was delicious. Our friends and family absolutely loved the venue and loved having all of the events there the whole weekend. 100% recommend the Bauerhaus for all wedding events!!

Rick Woolsey: Beautiful venue. The staff is very friendly and professional and down to earth.

Leigh Anne Seitz: My husband and I had our wedding here July 23, 2022. Our wedding planner was Tera and she was absolutely amazing! She always responded to emails, calls, questions, and anything we needed. When we showed up on wedding day we didn’t expect the amount of staff that was there helping decorate, clean, and then eventually tear down everything. My husband and I didn’t have to lift a finger! The Bauerhaus is worth every penny!

Sandy Smith: This wasent my first Weeding their my eldest daughter got married some years back. Today my youngest daughter got married their. It's a beautiful, charming, and well taken care from the help to the cordnators. Its beauty is just breathtaking. I want Thank you all for a wonderful experience twice in a roll.

Denise Gravelle: I had my wedding reception at The Bauerhaus - easiest decision in the entire wedding planning process! As an out-of-town bride, I cannot recommend it enough. Tara and the team take care of every detail. It is a huge help that all the vendors are in-house. I was positively stunned when my new husband and I walked up the stairs for our grand entrance to see the venue all decked out for our reception. The Bauerhaus team had taken care of all our décor without anyone from my bridal party needing to lift a finger. The food and cake are also to die for. Here's your sign to have your next party at The Bauerhaus!

Danielle Norman: I may be a bit bias, but I’ve seen the Bauerhaus for YEARS. We “decided” to book for our reception (it was never a question), and we cannot imagine a more perfect evening to celebrate our marriage. The Bauerhaus staff, Tara, the bartenders, the caterers, EVERYONE were so impressive and wonderful to work with. Our day would not have been the best if it wasn’t for everyone there working together to help make it the most memorable day of our lives. The FOOD! The cake, EVERYTHING! Everything was such a breeze for me as a bride. I was able to really enjoy myself and the evening could not have gone better.

Mary Hess: wedding reception...beautiful venueand delicious food

Shelley Lee: STELLAR EXPERIENCE!!! Tara was OUTSTANDING! My husband and I have hosted two weddings within 6 months and The Bauerhaus was superior by far! The venue is great, but Tara is the key that makes it all work perfectly! She is organized, helpful, accommodating and just a great person! We had the most beautiful wedding, great food, beautiful cake, and amazing service! I have nothing negative to say and HIGHLY recommend The Bauerhaus!

Jessica Lee: OH MY GOSH!! Absolutely phenomenal venue. Not only is this a great place, but our wedding coordinator Tara was incredible! I was not worried about a thing the entire night. She had everyone lined up, people where they needed to be, and made sure I didn’t have to do ANYTHING! We missed cocktail hour food because of pictures, and she had set aside a plate for my husband and I to enjoy while eating dinner (which the food is amazing as well) She made sure we had drinks constantly during dinner, saved us food from the late night snacks, and even helped my family pack up their cars with our gifts! The entire night was ran smoothly and professionally and I cannot recommend this venue and everyone that works there enough! :)

Kristen Maeder: You won’t find a better venue than The Bauerhaus, nor a better wedding planner than Tara Fewkes! She rolled with any changes, created the most incredible dream wedding for us, and I have received so many compliments on the Bauerhaus staff and Tara! They moved so quickly after the wedding to the reception that it happened flawlessly! We ended up having an inside wedding due to the rain the night before. It was exquisite! Better than I ever could have imagined! The food was incredible, drinks, DJ, everything!

Krista Ingle: Beautiful venue for Proms, weddings, etc. The food was delicious.

Roscoe Reels (Kevin Miller): Everything was good except the lighting could have been better for yesterday’s wedding. I had to keep my LED panel lights on for the whole night just to be able to film the bride and groom. The food was awesome though!

BluMystVampire86: Very beautiful venue! Food was amazing and the decor was gorgeous!

Sapphire Pixie: The staff is always friendly and very knowledgeable about anything you need and if they don't know about it that find someone who does. Very quick at checkout and everything I need is always in stock.

The catering went smoothly and the food was well prepared. The best fried chicken in town. Well cared for grounds lends to outdoor fun. A couple hundred people, this place is well worth a look.

Tiffany Kelley: Working with the City View staff was an amazing experience! I helped my sister- and brother-in-law plan their City View wedding, and Beth made the process as seamless as possible. Her warm, composed professionalism is perfectly suited for this business. Wedding planning, especially on a short timeline, can be stressful! Beth was quick to answer questions and offer honest, valuable guidance from start to finish. And the venue is ABSOLUTELY breathtaking and perfectly located. Bravo, City View!

Tony: Nice!!! ..went to see Steve Brown comedy show there.. Awesome space would be great place for hosting parties, celebrations and get togethers.👍🏼

Anthony Day: We held our annual customer appreciation event at City View in June, 2022. Attendance was well over 200 and City View handled everything like the professionals they are. Kyle and his team were awesome at every step of the process. They helped us with set-up, Kyle was on-site during the event should issues arise, they had a cash bar, we didn’t use them for food but that was an option. I cannot say enough about how great this place is.

Ebony Johnson: An absolute blast was had at the Wizards Ball

Sat outside on Veranda and weather was perfect along with service from a young wait staff.As a group of 5 we had pecan crusted chicken , grilled Mahi, filet and chicken marsala. All good. My marsala was different than i have ever had. Sauce was thicker like gravy and very good. Would order again. Filet could have been seasoned a little more but was a very good piece of beef. For our first outing it was a 9.9.

Chad Will: Great place to play golf or be a club member

Jordan Huneycutt: I joined Oak Meadow about a month ago and it was the best decision! I play golf non stop and since I am 28 years old, the Junior Membership was perfect for me. The course is unreal. Best conditions and a very friendly staff. I recommend this course to everyone.

Cindy C.: We were there for a seminar. The view was awesome looking over the city. The food was EXCELLENT. Could have used more gravy on the pork tenderloin pieces. And gravy on the mash potatoes. The mash potatoes had a GREAT flavor without any gravy but I just like gravy. The service was a slow on getting drink refills.

Brenda Delaney: We were part of the Burris-Delaney wedding party on 06/05/21. Everything from the rehearsal dinner, to the wedding and reception itself was amazing! The food and cocktails were delicious. The locker rooms where the bride and bridesmaids camped out all day to prepare was immaculate and spacious. The grounds were well kept and made a beautiful backdrop for the wedding photos. Although all of the staff members we encountered were professional and courteous throughout the whole 2 day experience. I want to call out a few people I believe went above and beyond.Gary (our wedding concierge of sorts) was so thorough and helpful with the rehearsal and gave excellent advice and guidance on things that would enhance our experience. He walked us through the whole process from start to finish and we felt very comfortable with him. You could definitely tell that he had a lot of previous experience. We also noticed that he silently moved in the background of literally every experience we had to ensure the DJ knew the lineup, that empty, used plates were removed from tables, that everyone was seated properly and that no one was left outside in the heat too long. Nothing was overlooked under his watch.I also want to call out a server we had during our rehearsal dinner named Johanna. She was super friendly, helpful, and even offered to take the bride to be's steak back to the kitchen to cook a little longer (she ordered well done and it had just a touch of pink) and she did this with such care and sincerity you could tell she really liked her job and was a pure professional all the way through. We never had a chance to ask for anything, because she anticipated our every need and was on top of it.I would also like to call out our attendant Bree who kept the fresh fruit, and snack trays coming as well as the mimosas (which we appreciated very much)!I could really name each person we came in contact with, but I'll sum it up by saying you get what you pay for and we were all treated like royalty by the staff of ECC. I will definitely recommend them as the top local wedding one-stop-shop for any Bride-to-be searching for a venue in this area.
