Event Venue - Thousand Oaks Golf Course

I am always one to jump on an invitation to tour an event venue, especially when it involves a delicious lunch! Denise from Thousand Oaks Golf Course reached out wanting to show off their event venue and I am so glad I was able to meet her and see the gorgeous space for myself. It is a hidden gem, located just minutes north of downtown Grand Rapids, that definitely deserves to be highlighted!

As soon as you drive into the parking lot the beautiful exterior of the buildings warmly welcome you and your guests.

As soon as you enter the doors above, you are greeted by this lovely fireplace and seating area. Perfect for guests that want to relax and chat in a quieter location once the main party really gets going! 

The main event space, with it's high ceilings and windows over looking the golf course, can hold up to 400 guests. It can also be split into three different sections if you have a smaller more intimate gathering. Rental fees for the room range from $100-$2,500, depending on the room configuration and timing of event. Included in the room rental are floor length linens (white, ivory or black), AV equipment such as a projector and screen, a dance floor and even risers for the head table. Thousand Oaks also has a private room located in the main section of the building that is perfect for a rehearsal dinner, shower or even a small reception. 

 There is a large private deck that wraps around the room, this is a great spot for cocktails or for your guests to mingle on. It has an amazing view of the golf course and surrounding landscape. This deck is separate from the main building and restaurant area so you do not have to worry about any party crashers :)

If you are interested in having your ceremony on location as well they can accommodate that too. There is a grassy area perfect for a mid-sized ceremony with a stunning view as your backdrop. 

I was able to personally taste the Golf Courses food and it was wonderful! Their chef is fantastic and they offer an extensive menu for you to choose from. They offer an onsite pastry chef but also allow to bring in your own cakes and desserts for a small cake cutting fee.

If you are looking for a venue for your upcoming event, I highly recommend checking out Thousand Oaks Golf Course. The room is beautiful, the course boasts breathtaking views, the food is delicious and the customer service is superb!

Happy Planning!
