    • Q:

      Will there be any renovations in the next 6 months being done to bring it up to date? There is outdated carpet after you enter and prepare to walk up the steps. Even the bridal suite is outdated.

      A:

      I would love it! because we are having my daughter sweet 16 there this year and it sure needs an update.

      Have the best time and great food every time I attend a wedding at Windows on the Lake. My sisters wedding was perfect, and I always enjoy going back when invited to other events!

      This is review is based on my one and only recent visit to Windows on the Lake. Surprisingly, I've not been invited to a wedding or any other occasional event at this venue. From what I heard is that it is also newly renovated. It was a nice, open and airy catering hall. We waited on line for a short period of time before being seated for the Disney Princess Brunch we previously purchased tickets for.

      Part of our ticket included one brunch item of their menu. On the Brunch menu there was a panini, a salad, Eggs Benedict and Chicken and Waffles. I chose the panini which was grilled chicken with honey mustard. Children under 3 were free and all children were to eat from the buffet which included chicken fingers, waffles, and French fries. All the food was tasty and was of decent quality.

      While the fed the children quickly, which is much appreciated, our food came out at the very end of the program. I needed to leave early because the baby needed a nap asap. All in all I was pleasantly surprised with how good the food was and how nice the place was as well. I wouldn't mind coming back here for a special occasion.

      This venue committed grand larceny tonight with whatever they tried to pass off as dinner and a music show.
      The "music" was too loud too out of tune a frankly terrible. The food was cold and served late. What a complete mess and a crime that this venue made people pay for tonight ... unacceptable

      Came here for a wedding and it was great.

      The space is beautiful and the garden/patio is nice.

      Awesome staff and they move you in and out efficiently. They had another wedding after our party was ending so they do them back to back.

      Staff were wearing masks and taking the proper precautions.

      Absolutely ruined my wedding day! Claim to be one bride at a time but that wasn't the case. The staff is condescending and rude. They don't communicate with well at all! We paid for a service we didn't receive because they claimed our decor was "too complicated" and "too custom" to set up. We had to take time away from our guests and photographer to setup and cleanup our own wedding decor! Run far far away from Windows on the Lake & the Beach Club Estate! You'll be thankful you did.

      We booked a venue with Beach Club Estate for our intimate wedding and the place is beautiful. We took a tour with Uncle Frank (the three of us got along so well he asked us to call him uncle Frank). He's been working there for some time now and he knows the ins and out of the place. I recommend asking for him if you decide to take a tour of this place. He listens and will take what you are looking for into consideration.

      Our server, Mike, was amazing. He checked on us regularly and was very engaging.

      The food was pretty good, some definite hits and misses. Hits - the entire antipasto & cheeses tables, the pasta dishes, the chicken francaise, & the dessert! Misses - the turkey they had out first was really good, but the second one where they were carving from the entire bird was very dry. Same with the gravy - the first time was really good but the second one they brought out not good.

      Overall was beyond expectations. Location was beautiful and even with the very few misses, there was plenty of other amazing choices!

      Would definitely go again and would recommend!

      My husband and I had our wedding here back on October and it was the most fun wedding I've been to. Granted, it was mine, but everyone was so helpful the day of that I didn't have to worry about anything that day.

      Before we had our wedding, everyone we have a spoken to was so fantastic and amazing to work with. From Frank, to Danielle and Michael. They all were so delightful and great to talk to. It never felt awkward when I went to pay or to drop off any item or paperwork for the wedding. The food was amazing, and I'm still having family and friends raving about the food and DJ.

      The grounds are so beautiful! Rory, my husband, and I got married outside and had cocktail hour inside. Frank had called me a day or two in advance and told me he was worried about the weather being a bit took cold to be staying out for a longer period of time. I was so glad that he made that call and we were able to make the decision that quick and that short notice.

      I had made signs for my wedding and was able to come a few weeks before my wedding day to place where I had wanted the signs to be. We were also able to bring our own centerpieces in, which I absolutely loved.
