Venues & Event Spaces near Deer Park, NY

“So many wonderful things to do at Tanger, obviously shopping, possibly catching a movie, or grabbing a bite to eat at their many eateries, but in addition to this, I would definitely recommend visiting their tenants at the Christmas Land Experience.

Upon entering, you can either take the stairs or the elevator up to the second floor to check in with the host, Present/purchase your tickets, and begin your adventure by venturing through their displays. You’ll be given a wristband, one per family, to scan in specific rooms to take pictures, which will ultimately be sent to your phone.

Each room that we viewed was nicely decorated with a different holiday theme. From Gingerbread and Santa’s Workshop to Nightmare Before Christmas and A Christmas Story, my family and I had a great time capturing photos and creating new memories.

One thing I would advise is going earlier in the day, as the rooms can fill up quickly, causing a line to form, but as long as you have a little patience, you’ll be just fine.

This was such a great way to get into the Christmas spirit. A unique space featuring interactive activities, that will keep the kids entertained for hours. Awesome Staff, Well Kept Space, and Reasonably Priced Tickets! If you’re looking for a new activity to do with family and friends for the Holidays this is a really good one that everyone will enjoy.”

“Love at first sight! Cannot wait to have my wedding here this coming spring. From the inside of the ballroom to the bridal suites and to the outside patio with a gorgeous view, this venue stands out compared to others on Long Island. The staff of water’s edge is another huge plus, everyone is so friendly and helpful making me feel comfortable and confident my wedding day will go smoothly.

Edit from prior review:

Had our wedding here on Thursday May 14th, 2026. I can truly say from the bottom of my heart it was the best day ever. The meetings prior to our wedding day had us feeling calm and excited. Meeting with Luis our maitre D a few days earlier I knew we would have an amazing day. The morning of our wedding it was raining and we were called by Luis that he would be setting up the ceremony inside. Well as the day went on it the weather changed and Luis immediately changed the ceremony from inside to outside. He really made us feel so special from start to end. Shaye our bridal attendant was so attentive and just had an eye for detail, whether it be fixing my hair or lipstick, or making sure my train was ready to go she was there. The food was fantastic, everyone raved about cocktail hour and we were able to bring so much food home. I wish I could relive this day over and over that’s how special it was. Every single person at the Water’s edge from behind the scenes to Luis and Shaye are honest and dedicated people and truly love what they do.”

“I got married here December 13th and the harbor club did an absolutely amazing job at making my wedding all I had vision. Just the views, drinks and food alone I would give it a solid 5 stars but everyone who works there made our wedding great. Having Helen and Laurie there from the begining and to communicate to make sure everything goes smoothly with vendors. And to Richard and Serena making me and the rest of my bridal party feeling comfortable and confident the day of the wedding. Everyone truly went above and beyond and I will forever be thankful !”

“We originally chose this venue because of the beautiful water views and how open, bright, and clean the space felt, but what truly made us fall in love was the staff and the level of service from everyone there.

From the very beginning, Britt’s energy during our tour made us feel so excited and confident in choosing this venue. She was with us every step of the way leading up to the wedding, always answering questions, setting up follow-up appointments, and making the entire planning process feel smooth and stress-free. The complimentary food tasting was also absolutely amazing and made us even more excited for the big day.

On the wedding day itself, everything was absolutely perfect. Evelyn, our bridal attendant, was incredible! We had a private cocktail hour and she brought in all the food options, helped fixed my bustle throughout the entire day, touched up my makeup. She was so attentive, thoughtful, and always there whenever I needed anything. She truly helped make the day feel seamless and stress-free. Victor was also amazing and made sure all of our guests were happy and taken care of throughout the entire event.

The service, the food, the views, the atmosphere, everything exceeded our expectations. We are so incredibly happy we chose this venue for our wedding and truly could not have imagined a more perfect day.”

“Gorgeous venue! So we'll staffed and organized. The staff were all professional, courteous and really did a great job. The cocktail hour and buffet dinner food was delicious ?. Thank you to ACLD for throwing a wonderful staff holiday party at this venue.”

““Absolutely loved this venue! The space was beautiful, clean, and very spacious. The staff was professional, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly from beginning to end. My guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the atmosphere was. Perfect for birthdays, baby showers, weddings, and private parties. I would definitely book here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a classy and stress-free event space!” ✨”

“Liz was super responsive with returning emails and texts as I was planning my daughter’s Bridal Shower. Very quick to answer all my questions and help to get a day and time for us. Unfortunately we were not able to book for other reasons, but I will definitely be a patron soon!”

“We had our wedding at Stonebridge in November and it was so perfect there. The Stonebridge team made our day so seamless. Terrence and Tracey were so great the day of, they handled anything we needed and were by our side for whatever requests we have. Diana made the whole planning process so great and really eased my mind about so many things. The whole team was so great. The venue was beautiful and fit our 180 person wedding so great! All of the food was incredible too. If you are considering Stonebridge as your venue, I highly recommend it! We have nothing but amazing things to say about the venue and everyone who works there!”

“Didn’t stay at the hotel, but went for the tour and restaurant.

Tour guide was excellent, very friendly, and informative. Her name was Vicky I think. Was interesting to hear the countless movies filmed at this palace. And the fact that some of these walls are 2 feet thick. Insane!

The restaurant also had a great atmosphere. It was busy, of course, in the afternoon, but the waiters were kind and polite. I got the Eggs Benedict for brunch and it was delicious. The chocolate torte afterwards for dessert was also very sweet but worth it. For $38, the price isn’t too bad for such a luxurious looking place.

Overall, this place is genuinely perfect for visiting and taking pictures. People here are so nice. This guy standing by the valet parking even offered to take a picture of me and my friends - and it turned out great!! 100% recommend for people who like mansions, history, good food, and just experiencing a wealthy lifestyle lol.”

“It is a fantastic private club.Cold Spring Country Club, founded in 1947, is a hidden jewel on Long Island's historic "gold coast". For 70 years they have offered their members a spectacular private country club experience and offer premiere golf course and dynamic tennis program. Cold Spring Country Club is also a prime venue to host your special events.”

“We had the most incredible experience at The Barn! At the last minute, my husband Thomas and I had to switch venues from our original reception space to here, and we were so stressed , but from the very beginning Emily took care of everything. She gave us a tour, a food tasting, and even introduced us to the staff so we felt at ease leading up to the big day.
On the wedding day itself, we were blown away. Our maître d’, Carl, and our bridal assistant, Natalie, were absolutely phenomenal. They went above and beyond in every single way , from helping me (the bride) with something as personal as going to the bathroom, to discreetly switching out napkins for my groom as he worked up a sweat, to making sure we always had a drink in our hand. Their professionalism, friendliness, and attentiveness made us feel completely cared for.
The Barn staff turned what started as a stressful situation into the best day of our lives, and we are forever grateful we got married here. Highly recommend!”

“We had my son’s 6th birthday party at No Limit Ninja in Farmingdale this past weekend and the kids had a fantastic time. The coaches/staff handled set up/clean up, kept the kids engaged, very polite and organized. Also the pizza/food was delicious, we were pleasantly surprised. Thank you for making my son's birthday a memorable one! Highly recommend.”

“Monika was a life saver. Her and her staff helped us have the single best wedding experience we could have ever asked for. So grateful for everything they did for us!”

“It's been awhile since I've been there. Was surprised they didn't have Smithwicks anymore. Definitely not the reason I was going but was an afterthought. Enjoyable place and people always”

“I found this GEM on a whim. And once I entered the doors I knew I had to have my father's 70th birthday party here! The ambiance is breathtaking. Then I met Tommy and he sold me on the space. EVERYTHING he promised, he provided. And he catches all that I missed. It is hard to find managers like this nowadays.
All my guests raved about the food - we are Jamaican- and the staff. Great venue! Wonderful staff! I can't wait to have another event!!!!! And all this on Long Island. I am still in awe!!!”

“We recently had our wedding here and I cannot say enough good things.-To start, John and his team went above and beyond to ensure the most perfect day possible. John was incredibly helpful leading up to the wedding in our correspondence, and in person in our planning meetings he was beyond helpful and had great insight. Our bridal attendant Abbey was a delight, the staff (from the valet to the servers) were absolutely wonderful. Our friends and family raved about the attention to detail in service, as well as the food.-Now for the food- I am a bit biased but without a doubt the best wedding food I have ever had, and our guests have been non-stop raving about it as well. Everything was fresh, lots of seasonal & dietary choices, and truly delicious.-This venue may not be for everyone stylistically, but it is truly like walking into a fairytale at night and the vibes were above and beyond what we were hoping for. It feels like you're walking into a small scale "Newport Mansion" type home with plenty to see, and the dining room and dance floor had just the right amount of "new" yet rustic feel to not seem out of place.We could NOT have been happier with this venue and I have received non-stop compliments from every guest raving about the uniqueness, the service, and the food. Everyone we know has said this might have been the best wedding they'd ever been to--- and we credit that all to John and the Coindre Hall Team. If you're looking for a unique and high quality venue look no further than Coindre Hall!”

“I have brought my kids to Pro Game a ton and can say that is an amazing place to host kids’ birthday parties , and to also bring your kids to camp. Their indoor space is large and so the kids get to run around and play sports in a fun and safe environment. The birthday parties are even great for young kids. They cater to the younger ages by providing bounce houses and kids toys, and it’s nice for the parents as it isn’t overwhelming like some other places that have multiple parties at once.”

“My wife and I had our wedding reception (for ~125 guests) in the Somerley room at Fox Hollow and it was absolutely amazing! The entire planning process with James and Hillary was seamless. Our maitre d', Samir, handled everything flawlessly during the reception, and my wife's bridal attendant Sofia was incredible and very attentive. The venue was beautiful and the food was delicious! We had high expectations and every single one was exceeded - an incredible day.
The wedding party and almost all of the wedding guests stayed at the Fox Hollow Inn which was very convenient. The rooms were large and very nice, the fireplace was very warm, and the hotel bar was a great place for an informal after party!
We did our rehearsal dinner at the Volpe which was also amazing.
We highly recommend Fox Hollow for a wedding venue/rehearsal dinner/hotel - they made our day so special and were amazing to work with!”

“We had a rookie’s night at this bowling alley the other night as a post-Christmas activity with the young adult children and their significant others. Everyone had a great time! A hostess made rounds to allow us to order libations. I’ve seen the granny shot deployed in basketball but I witnessed it in bowling that night!”

“Had a company party there very nice and enjoyable. Lots of parking. Kinda secluded from the home goods parking lot. Staff was super nice and so was the finger food. Pasta. Salads. Chicken fingers. Pizza. Music was nice. Had a fun time. Will visit again.”

“My uncle comes here all the time and me my girlfriend and my aunt also came here and enjoyed ourself. they have a nice little arcade for kids , regular bowling alley food and a nice size bar. Tvs good music and a nice atmosphere. I would def come here again.”

“It is my go to course. Decent course, reasonable price, pleasant staff. I would have expected the greens and fairways to be in better shape at the beginning of the season.”

“We hosted our daughter's sweet 16 party here yesterday and they exceeded our expectations in every way. The venue was impeccable and the staff incredibly helpful and friendly. They really go above and beyond accommodating your every request and making you feel like family. We highly recommend The Edgewood On The Green for all your parties!”

“This is a great space for your event, the people are great to work with. If you are bringing hot dishes just plan your catering to arrive hot, because the oven is small. You can't keep everything warm at the same time”

“From my wife and I, we want to sincerely thank you for bringing my 40th Birthday Celebration — Smoov Splash II — to life with your beautiful décor and creative vision.

Your support, especially when it mattered most toward the end, meant so much to us. So many guests shared how stunning the venue looked and how wonderful and attentive your staff was throughout the event.

We truly appreciate everything you did to make the night special. One love! ❤️”

“I had such a great experience with Annabella Z! She was an amazing host from start to finish. She was welcoming, friendly, organized, and made sure everything ran smoothly. She made everyone feel comfortable and truly went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful host. Thank you again for making our experience so enjoyable!”

“I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Melville Marriott, and every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. From the moment you walk in, everyone makes you feel genuinely welcome.

A special thank you to Eric E., the head chef, who always takes the time to say hello, make small talk, and check in to make sure everything is just right. That level of hospitality really stands out and makes you feel like more than just a guest.

The entire staff is friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. The bar area is a great place to unwind, and the outdoor space is beautiful—perfect for relaxing, especially with the barbecue area.

Thank you to Eric and the entire team for consistently providing such a wonderful experience. I always look forward to my next stay!”

“Hello! Good! I have already been here a few times for friends' children's birthday parties and we liked it from the first day, my daughters liked everything! Everything is inside the building, the only thing is that they do not sell food to the public; They have but, for reservations only, the place is very clean, parking for cars is very decent! Here is my rating and some video clips”
