It was truly a pleasure working at Hope Valley Country Club for the first time, and I can confidently say the experience exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, Travis, the venue manager, set the tone for an exceptional partnership. He was warm, generous, and incredibly accommodating, but more than that, he made one thing very clear: we were a team. That mindset makes all the difference in our industry. Travis approached the day with collaboration, respect, and a genuine desire for everyone involved to be successful. His leadership created a calm, organized, and welcoming environ…

My husband and I went to so many locations when looking for a place to get married with 14 close family members. The prices for spaces and/or getting a response from them was becoming beyond stressful. We went to visit Hope Valley Country Club and we’re so happy we did. We worked with Katie and she was amazing throughout the entire process. We couldn’t be more pleased with how our wedding ceremony and dinner reception went. Thank you so much!

We recently held a large party and dinner at HVCC. Travis Dickerson was outstanding to work with and the food and service was wonderful as well. As non-members we felt valued and would highly recommend this venue and it’s lovely staff.

HVCC recently hosted our daughter’s wedding reception and everything was superb. 160 guests, and the salmon was prepared perfectly, as was the steak. Two open bars, 4 bartenders, 3 different venues for guests to enjoy—the veranda, the dining room, and the lovely dance floor. Waitstaff was on point all night. Leadership was so easy to work with and accommodating. Price was reasonable and much less than most other venues we explored. Lots of wonderful little touches and attention to details made the night special. Would highly recommend. 10/10 experience for us.

I was there for a wedding and enjoyed it. The staff was very helpful and nice. They were extremely welcoming. It is a beautiful location and well maintained grounds. The food was ok not awful but not anything I was impressed with. I noticed that they made modifications to make the location accessible which I appreciate. However just be aware the carpet is very thick which is hard to push on. There were spots for disabled parking but they were not regulation. The parking was close and easy to get to.

I recently had my wedding at Hope Valley Country Club which was directed by Kelly and Ashley, the event coordinators. From the very beginning, these ladies were professional and willing to accommodate every request. They made the entire planning process so pleasant and the day-of coordination stress-free for me and my family. The food served was the best I've ever had at a large event. We continue to get multiple compliments from our guests about the beautiful venue and food. I would highly, highly recommend using Hope Valley Country Club for any event.

This is the most unprofessional and dirty country club I ever see , the kitchen, full of roaches, rotten lamb , smelly meats and this is what they serve to the guests and golfers, isn't healthy department coming to check how unhealthy is the production of meals in this kitchen. Chef Andrew and Emzi Wewers are in charge of this unhealthy way to run the business. Isn't just that, is the way how they lie to employees with salary's they can't match. I believe this unprofessional way start from the top to the bottom.

They do things right. It is a very well-run Country Club. I have been to several events there, and the staff, the food and the facilities have all been at the level you would expect. It speaks well of the management and the neighborhood.
