It's a beautiful venue with room for a large wedding. A bit out of the way but worth it.

This venue is gorgeous and Beautiful both in and outside. Super easy to work with and loved the flexibility they gave us for both the wedding and rehearsal dinner. The food was above and beyond expectations. The Charlie's were amazing and accommodating. Thank you for making our special day perfect.

Brides beware! I would not recommend this venue to anyone and highly encourage you to find another venue if you are even considering it. Although the place is pretty, the owner is the worst person on the planet and has the worst customer service.. he isn't afraid to yell at anyone including the bride and groom on their wedding day. I actually witnessed him yell and cuss at the groom when it should be the happiest day of someone's life with no drama. It's so bad I heard the staff say they were worried about getting yelled at and also watched the son have to correct his dad's behavior and tell his father (the owner) that we were customers and he needed to be nicer and not yell at people during a separate time at the rehearsal.If you choose to go against this advice and end up booking this space, be careful because the inside event space is setup horribly for audio. No one can hear speeches or anyone trying to talk, even with audio equipment setup. They also make you use their decorator who gets overwhelmed easily and asks the bridal party for help (even though you are paying for the service). Lastly, be cautious because you will get conflicting information from the owners son, the decorator and the owner, and in turn yelled at.I cannot stress this enough, do not book this venue or recommend this place to anyone. I will never come back to this venue.

The reception hall is ECHOEY AF. Even with the DJ and speech-givers using the microphone, we couldn’t hear announcements, speeches, or cues for the “shoe game.” The reception hall is pretty but you have to yell talk to the person next to you at your table. My date’s voice was hoarse at the end of the night, we couldn’t hear people’s speeches or the shoe game, it was disappointing and distracting.And another sound-related note: please don’t try to use a wireless microphone for your officiant and the vows. It tends to cut out in general, especially Deep Woods’ did, so we literally could not hear/pay attention to the ceremony.Sound quality matters! I do not recommend this venue on this basis alone. If you love their venue, try to do the whole thing outside if you can.

I made a reservation with the guarantee of a 30 day refund. I had to cancel our reservation 10 days after making it due to scheduling conflicts with family- that was almost a year ago and I STILL have not gotten back a single penny of my $500 deposit! The management is a joke! Don't waste your time or money here...

PLEASE read the reviews before choosing your venue. I wish I would have seen all of the horror stories about Deep Woods prior to booking. The owners Charlie Jr and Charlie Sr are the most unpleasant people I have ever encountered. They're RUDE. They are GREEDY. They are LIARS. They more than DOUBLED the price of our food one week before the wedding because they knew we would have no choice but to pay it. They will yell at your vendors, they will yell at your guests, and PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF SANITY GOOGLE SEARCH CHARLIE NIEMEYER EUGENE OREGON. This venue is not child friendly. It is not family friendly. These two will RUIN your wedding planning experience.*The owners will yell at your guests for EVERYTHING and hit on your bridesmaids. They will bombard the bride and groom with questions and problems and complaints the ENTIRE time you are at the venue. They also signed the ENTIRE first page of our guest book with a huge 'Charlie and Charlie' across the whole page, and we don't even personally know these people. They were TERRIBLE to us and our entire wedding party and now we have a hideous reminder of that all over the front page of our wedding book. That was very disrespectful.* The bridal suite is tiny. If you have more than 3 people getting ready- you will NOT have room.*I would also like to add that the indoor part of the venue is a disaster. The echo is SO bad you cannot even have a conversation with the person next to you. The music and the DJ cannot be understood either. We hired an amazing DJ who did everything he could to fix it but was still unsuccessful and you will be too. There's no AC inside. Our wedding was in May but it was 76 degrees and miserably hot inside because there is NO air flow.I am attaching a photo of the price list we were given for catering when we booked the venue, and the price breakdown they gave us one week prior to the wedding. Yes, all prices are 'subject to change'... but the prices they charged us DOUBLED from the quote we were originally given. DO NOT TRUST THEM! They only care about your money and they will rob you! We also informed them in writing that our guest count would be roughly 95. They charged us for 130! And when we confronted them about with they said 'oh we will make it right, we will make better food for you to make up the difference'. For thousands of dollars?! That's not okay.Please please please do not book this venue.And if you have already booked- JUST FORFEIT THE DEPOSIT AND SAVE YOURSELF. They will not treat you any better- they will ruin your day just like they have for everyone else who is writing a review.You're welcome.

A close family friend recently got married here, and although the venue is beautiful, the owners are very unprofessional. One of the owners yelled at both the groom for getting soda out of the fridge (that was previously okay’d), and also one of the bridesmaids for helping make sure the flowers were ready for the ceremony. He YELLED at them. This is never acceptable, especially for such minor things that were previously ok’d!! They also messed up the catering and doubled charged the parents of the groom, and refused to correct their error.Wouldn’t recommend anyone get married here if they want a smooth wedding, where the paying customers are treated with basic decency. Weddings are stressful enough.

We recently had my son's wedding reception at Deep Woods. Everything was just excellent! The venue is very beautiful and is a fantastic indoor/outdoor venue. Charlie (the owner) couldn't have been more helpful before and during the event. We used their catering service (required) as well as Heather Ortis at Event Design and Rentals. Everything was excellent! The food was so amazing and Heather was a joy to work with. Highly recommended!!!

I called to get an inquiry to see if a date was available, and they asked how many people. I was looking on their page and it states they have 400 chairs available, so I said about 200 max and they said “nope not interested” and they hung up… horrible customer service
