Venues & Event Spaces near Tipp City, OH

“We had a great experience at Cedar Springs! The venue is gorgeous. We had our wedding day in the middle of the summer on one of the hottest days of the year. It was really hot being all outdoors, but definitely cooled off into the evening which helped. We made it through the heat and were so glad we did cause the venue looked incredible for our big day. There is so much naturally greenery, the pond and fountain were an awesome backdrop, and Lisa and the staff really do a good job keeping up with the landscaping.

They provided all we needed for tables and chairs, as well as were a pretty big help day of getting things in order for us. We made the mistake to not get a wedding planner (it was clear to see that we didn't have one if you saw us setting up and tearing down). But the Cedar Spring staff (specifically the owner Lisa) helped us out where they could and that was very nice of them.

Only downfalls would be the day-of-coordinator we had (which comes with the venue), some restrictions were a disappointment, and communication leading up to our day was spotty at times. Our day-of-coordinator that came with the venue wasn't much help - we only met her at rehearsal as she was not at our 2-weeks 'til meeting. To be fair we didn't really know what kind of help we were going to get from that position so we tried to plan for our day without relying on that, but we were still a bit disorganized in areas lol (get a wedding planner!). We hoped we were able to get more from that inclusion in the venue but it was essentially a wash for day of. The restrictions that were annoying were stuff like no shots and certain drinking game songs like Thunderstruck. Our guests were the crowd that liked to party and some of those things woulda been fun - but we still had plenty of fun so this wasn't the end of the world. The communication ultimately was fine leading up to the big day, but we had some back and forth between text and email and some details got lost or confusion took place on what was being asked / talked about. If you go with Cedar Springs and need to get questions answered as you plan, just plan to keep communication to email to keep all in order.”

“If you need a meeting space for a company event, this is the place. The staff is amazing and on the ball. Fantastic rates and a beautiful place to host any event! I highly recommend!”

“Our wedding reception at the Wright Van Cleve house exceeded all our expectations. The venue's generous space and captivating atmosphere made our celebration truly unforgettable. The owners were fantastic hosts, communicating effectively and catering to our needs with utmost care. We highly recommend the Wright Van Cleve house. Its charm and service make it an ideal choice for any event.”

“Was there for a birthday celebration. The place had more than enough room for tables and an area to serve food. Also had a decent sized kitchen to store or warm up additional food. Will look into potentially renting banquet in the future.”

“My dear friend was married here outside during Covid-19. They had a place for preparing food or delivering prepared food, lots of tables and chairs, a bandstand, and a dance floor. What a clever place to get married in.”

“Did a walk thru of this establishment for my wedding/reception and was very impressed. Chapel is very nice, clean and has comfortable seating. Bride and groom rooms are spacious and really nice. The venue is upstairs with full kitchen and plenty of seating and separate entrance. Owners are very nice and explained everything in detail. They also have Dayton's first and only Pickleball facility with 4 full courts and concession area. Plenty of parking and space in a very nice area off highway.”

“We had our son’s 7th birthday here and it was nothing short of amazing. Dan kept all the kids entertained and was so personable! We were very impressed and will be doing it again!”

“I have never had to go back and change my review of a hotel before. However, in the ensuing time since I wrote the original review, this hotel has gone downhill. Their general manager Left for what I can only presume was having to deal with the owners. The lady who has replaced the general manager, Renee remains incredible. Without her. This place would have shut down long ago. There are a couple of other great employees here. However, there are a number of employees that aren't close to any type of standard you would hire for your own company. Fait is one of those employees. The attitude that she has with customers is beyond the pale. I have never seen an employee get away with yelling at a customer who was not being hostile to them.

Breakfast at this hotel is a constant problem. The breakfast area is a dirty mess and the food is cold. This is not just a one-off incident but rather a repeated problem over many months.

Additionally, the condition of the rooms is subpar for a Holiday inn Express. The conditions of the rooms are closer to what I would expect at a quality inn.

All in all, I've changed my review to reflect the declining service and quality that I've experienced over months at this hotel from when the initial review was written.
I'm leaving the initial review below so that everybody can see how much this hotel has changed due to mismanagement or general lack of management caring.

Below this line was my previous review
--------this is a good hotel. Quiet. Good location, not located against a highway or anything else loud. The insulation between floors and between rooms is very good.

Rooms are well cleaned. Staff is friendly and well managed by Brian, the gm.

The only thing that keeps it from five stars is maintaince. Things in the rooms work, but little things like caulking etc could be improved. Would give 4.75 if it was an option. Nike if that however prevents me from staying nor should it you. I would recommend highly”

“Concession stand is slow, but the theater is comfortable and clean so all in all pretty good
As an update, concessions are being handled using one line and next available attendant approach. This is better. I would suggest having your snacks ordered ahead of time and sent to your seat”
