“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – The Perfect Wedding Venue!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our daughter’s wedding. This venue is absolutely stunning, every corner of the property is picture perfect, with beautiful farm surroundings that made for the dreamiest backdrop to her special day.

From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond. They were kind, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure everything ran smoothly. Their experience and attention to detail took so much stress off our shoulders and allowed us to fully enjoy the day.

Another huge plus was the pricing, it was very reasonable for everything that was included. We felt like we got exceptional value without having to compromise on quality or atmosphere.

Our guests are still raving about the venue, and we feel so lucky to have found it. If you’re looking for a breathtaking location with a top-notch team and fair pricing, look no further. This place is perfect!”

“Convenient location near downtown Vancouver, free parking and a great staff to take care of you! Highly recommend coming down grabbing a beer and throwing sharp things at wood. Will and Shalese will take excellent care of you!”

“I'm a local that has been here several times over the years... I must say that it's always a treat to have the brunch with friends or family. The eggs Benedict and crepes are definitely the highlight of the buffet. But over all I would give the food quality a 4 out of 5, but the atmosphere makes up for the slight lack in the food. It so nice to stroll the grounds and take pictures after your meal. And the service is always lovely. I recommend taking your mom or grandma anytime of year, because it's always beautiful no matter the season! My one critique would be that they need to elevate the dessert bar... It was lacking and looked like a church potluck, but not in a good way. Other then that it was a 5 star experience, and I will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends!”

“The Valiant Ballroom is a unique, charming space. I have attended multiple events here and am always amazed by the magical feeling this space holds. The kitchen space is also a plus. I’d highly recommend checking out the Valiant Ballroom for your next event.”

“So, I am one of those parents who "doesn't leave."  Yep, if my kid is there, I usually am too.  But, the result is I actually see what is going on at the studio (usually four to five times a week).  Here's what I can tell you:

There are levels.  If your child wants to stay in what they call "Fundamentals" that's wonderful, but you should know that it is a competitive dance school.  That means that while they do have Showcases twice a year for those Fundamental dancers, there are also higher level competing dancers at the studio as well.  Dancers can be invited to audition for one of the Company teams during evaluations.  If your child is on the team, they will be pushed as a dancer and will have a commitment for one year.  As with any other sports team, if you are competing, then the coaches will try to pull the best from the athlete.  As a parent I hope for two things from what our kids are involved in.  The first is that it brings out their best.  And the second is that it presents what we call "parenting opportunities."  Any activity that pushes a child presents opportunities to help them grow (up).

You get what you pay for.  Our kids are also doing other activities and I can tell you that the structure is the same and the price works out when you divide out the number of hours with the hourly cost.  Also, with Krav there are "testing fees" and equipment, and and and...  Let's face it, right now life is costly.  The higher the level, the higher the cost--and competitive dancing (if that's what is right for your dancer and your family) is expensive.  Go into it aware of that and prepared and it won't frustrate you.

I have never met a kinder and more capable staff.  Truly.

Has there been bullying?  I would imagine, yes.  Kids are occasionally children and like all of us--painfully human.  But, the MINOR situations I have been aware of the staff have dealt with it directly, immediately, and appropriately, and have used it as a teaching opportunity.

The school is incredibly diverse.  While my daughter wanted to dance at Groove Nation (initially) because she said it just "felt right" compared to the other schools we looked at, I liked it in part because there's so much diversity at the school.  Sadly, the PNW is not as culturally diverse as where I was raised and I wanted my child to be around people who look different from her, and act different from her.  She never saw the differences, and now because of this experience I don't think she ever will.  This is not a cookie-cutter school and I love that.

The owners, and coaches, legitimately care about the students.

The feel of the studio, if you stick around long enough, is one of comradery and encouragement.  I was part of the competitive dance world when I was younger, and I can tell you that I've never seen a dance group as supportive of one another as these dancers are.

We have now been at Groove Nation for years and I couldn't speak more highly of the owners, staff, coaches, or dancers.”

“I came in on a Friday afternoon for my very first visit, and I thoroughly enjoyed my wine tasting. Keri, the Tasting Room Manager, was extremely friendly and helpful, making the experience even more pleasurable. My dog companion and I had just completed an 11-mile hike, and she was able to nap on the deck with me under sunny 57 degree temperatures. I am a Meetup hike leader, and I’d very much like to organize a group hike at Moulton Falls County Park with a stop at Pomeroy Cellars afterwards.”

“This is a very wonderful organization, they open their doors to help so very many clubs, parties, meetings,I have played bingo years ago, recieved foid baskets there, gone last to a celebration of life for and with famy for a cousin.they open not just there doors but much help to see all goes well. Thank you Elks lodge, keep shining moving forward,”

“The new remodel is absolutely gorgeous! Always a great and welcoming staff and good atmosphere and a beautiful course. Waitresses are always stunning as well lol”

“I can't say enough good things about Studio 4 and the crew there. I'm new to pole and tried it for fitness and as an exercise in body confidence and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. All the instructors are so supportive and body positive, I see women in class of all different ages, shapes, sizes, creeds and abilities and I feel the instructors make everyone feel safe and welcome. I honestly didn't think pole would be for me, but I love it so much and I feel stronger and more beautiful at 45 than I think I ever have before! Big props to Studio 4 for creating such a safe welcoming space.”

“Mary, Lorraine, and team were all super responsive and helpful! We accidentally left my laptop in the room and not 5 minutes after leaving we got a call saying they're holding it safely for us.

It's right next to Portland, had ample parking, and priced pretty alright given the area and amenities.

For a 2 star extended stay room, it's great.”

“Have you ever stumbled upon a place you want to tell everyone about and at the same time keep it a heart-warming secret for yourself? This is that place! It’s a cold, rainy morning and I’m sitting here on a cobble stone hearth cozied up to a gorgeous fire and sipping on the creamiest and mochas. Their Jebale coffee roasts have presence, with smooth and super balanced tastes. They dial it in perfectly every time! The staff here is always kind and welcoming - and at times really funny! I can tell they like their jobs and enjoy engaging and serving the public. Spacious place: two and four-top tables, long family tables, too, couches and cozy chairs, cushions on the fireplace hearth - comfort for everyone! There is even a tiny area for a few kiddos to quietly play. This will be my go-to place through the fall/winter season!”

“Very nice room at a great price. Free parking. Free breakfast. Nice tucked away location. I’ll be staying here anytime I need to be in Vancouver/Portland overnight.”

“This place was awesome! Took our daycare group here and it was great. Wish there were some more soft balls (we had a very large group) and there isn't a water fountain but there is a water bottle filling station and they did give us cups for our kids! It was super fun!”

“The room is overpriced for what you get. The front desk lady didn't seem very homely. But the bar was great, no matter how expensive the drinks were. 10$ shot an 7$ imported beer i think. For 120$ plus tax, it's Def not the Holiday Inn.”

“Clean room, very comfortable bed. Great quality for price. Cannot beat Holiday in Express breakfast. Always have enough oprions for my husband who eats paleo. Excellent service, friendly and helpful front desk staff”

“How fun is this place. So normally we go to kids club cause it's closer but I have to say, Dizzy Castle is pretty great. It is much quieter and the food is good. The staff is so nice!! The kids have so many things to do and it's a safe entrance in and out which i appreciate so much. We will be returning here instead of KC!”

“My daughter and I stayed here 3 nights over the weekend. This was actually our second time at this hotel and I remembered we had a nice time last year but we were really impressed this time around! Our room was spacious and clean and we loved having 2 sinks, fridge, microwave etc. the staff were super friendly and accommodating and the property overall had a ton of helpful amenities like fitness center, laundry room. We would certainly stay here again next time we are in town :-)”

“Michelle at the front desk was wonderful! We also love the lemon water available for free in the lobby and the general feeling of being welcomed warmly by the staff. We will be returning very soon!”
