“My review got deleted so I'm redoing it!
This is my favorite concert venue and being in my hometown makes it even better. The parking is free which is nice, it can be a little hectic but better then most places. They used a rocky, dirt, uneven lot for their over flow handicap parking which was not a good idea. A lot of people with handicap placards cant walk too good so i don't know why they did that. You cannot bring a regular size purse or back pack into the venue, but you can bring a very small one in so check on the website for the size they allow. I suggest getting a small clear handbag or back pack type bag to make it an easy and faster entrance.
At the entrance, they do have a place they will hold your purse if its too big to bring in but it costs. They will turn you away if your handbag/back pack is too big so you will either have to take it back to your car or pay to have them hold it for you.
If you want a good spot on the lawn, getting there early is a must. A good spot on the lawn is at the fence where no one is in front of you. You can rent a chair for the lawn but again, you will need to get there early so they won't run out.
Prices are hefty but it's the same everywhere. They do not accept cash so card only. One tall can of coors light beer was about $25 & that was the cheaper alcoholic beverage.
A little side note that is helpful if you want to purchase a t-shirt.
When your diving in, there are people selling t shirts in the parking lot and they are less expensive then inside but they usually are a little cheaper and thinner but still ok, just buy a size or 2 larger then you wear.
Most importantly is the t shirts they sell in the parking lot have all of the bands on them, just double check. Like it would have both ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd on the same t-shirt whereas the t-shirts that you purchase inside, have only 1 of the artist or the other on them so if you want both artists on 1 shirt, buy 1 outside. If you wait until after the concert, they are still out there selling them and you could get one for $20, sometime even $10.
Enjoy my favorite concert venue!!”
“They are open for tours only on Wednesdays and Sundays from 1 pm to 4 pm. The parking is free. It is run by Walnut Creek Historical Society. Once we enter inside the tour guide takes us on the tour. They are very knowledgeable and passionate. The guide explained everything in detail and was patient enough to answer our questions.”

This place is part of Lone Tree Golf and Event Center, tucked away on the other side of the golf course. If you have not been here before, it is difficult to determine where the entrance is. Even walking in can be a bit confusing, as you walk by multiple rooms before entering the dining area. For a weekday dinner, I expected it to be a bit more crowded, but I was pleased that we didn’t have to wait. The dining area is comfortable. It appeared that they were either short staffed or people were on break because our server was also the bartender. Nonetheless, she was very cordial and made sure we had everything that we needed. The food came out fairly quickly, was well prepared, and hot.
The menu had a nice selection of food, dessert, and beverage options without being too overwhelming. I finally settled on the MUSHROOM CHICKEN (two chicken breasts sautéed in sherry wine, garlic, fresh rosemary, mushrooms, and cream, served with garlic mashed potatoes & vegetables). It was DELICIOUS!!!
I will be back!”

“We recently had my son's 5th birthday party here and had a wonderful experience. The staff take care of everything, which I wasn't expecting! And that included laying out table covers, having paper plates and napkins, checking guests in, receiving and bagging up gifts, distributing food, cleaning up. They were great with the kids and were so efficient in getting them from one place to the next! I received so many praises from the kids and from parents, many of whom said they didn't realize how amazing the relocated gym was. I highly recommend having a kids party here!”
“We were in town visiting and I searched out Bulgarian ?? stores in the area. I was pleasantly surprised to find this gem. There are various products from Bulgaria and great fresh pastries that were amazing! Everyone is good come here and we want to go back in the future! Unfortunately we were traveling lightly by plane otherwise I would have picked up some fresh cheese to go.”

“CENTRE CONCORD PARTY HALL in concord, CA is very beautiful, spacious, great lighting, 400 capacity guests, great service, and respectful staff especially Jasmine. My 60th birthday party on August 20, 2022 was a blast with high class decorations. Most of all, the hall is open for party till 12:00am with one hour for clean up. I give them 100% satisfaction.”
“We recommend Solar swim & gym, a super relaxing place while the children are practicing you can do your exercises or just relax. Excellent trainers, thank you Coach and manager Niki. If you want to swim competitively this place is the right place.”
“As a wedding photographer I work with many vendors but the Clubhouse at Boundary Oak stands out as one of the best in Northern Ca! The greens are beautiful and provide lovely backgrounds for photos. All of the food was exquisite and what impressed me the most was the ENTIRE staff! EVERYONE that works there is extremely professional and courteous (even to vendors).If you’re looking for a wedding venue in the Bay Area be sure to visit the Clubhouse at Boundary Oak!”

“I have been going to this bowling since I was a child, over 40 years. I went this past Friday to wait for myso who was there with a group event. It hadn't changed at all except the equipment was updated. The bar was a joke, crowded, dirty, very understaffed but cheap. I don't drink so it was really my friends problem. The whole bowling alley was packed and for an institution to be in business as long as this one has is proof that something is going right (just not that bar!).”
“This place and their the service went above and beyond my expectations. I recently celebrated my wedding party, and I had a great experience. Compared to other banquet halls around this area, I would say it is one of the most good looking, besides that their available packages which includes chairs, tables, decoration and other amenities allows you to have your party without worries since they take care of having the place nice and ready for your event. I want to remark, that Domenic, who is currently in charge of coordinating everything. She does a great job at getting in touch with everything, including the most little details, she is attentive. I highly recommend this place.”
“I am a professional wedding photographer. I shoot at a LOT of venues. Oakhurst is right at the top of my very favorite venues to work at. The entire staff is incredibly friendly! The DJ, Jeno, is outstanding and very professional. The grounds themselves are beautiful and wonderful for getting MANY different backdrops that are unique for weddings portraits. I have shot about 20 weddings here and always look forward to my next one. On top of that, many years ago I too got married here. Wonderful venue!”

“A very nice course next to the Lime Ridge open area. The greens and fairways are well maintained. There are currently improvements bring made to the driving range area so the whole range is unavailable until the beginning of 2025.”
“We had our wedding at this venue in June and it was an amazing experience! The venue offered both indoor and outdoor spaces, which were perfect for our celebration. Despite the heat, everything went smoothly. Patricia the event manager was incredible and made sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend this venue!”
“Great spot to hit a bucket of balls. Added bonus of hearing gunshots from nearby Walnut Creek police shooting range. Well maintained golf mats, tees and automatic golf ball dispensers. Also, can't beat the view from this hillside location.”
“First time here, visiting yacht broker Ralph Tocci, and pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness, the condition of spaces, docks. Even the dock lines were orderly everywhere I looked. If I was considering a vessel purchase and location to moor it, this site gets my vote and not just because of the marina, the services, food nearby. Amazing place.”
