From your long awaited Wedding Reception, all the way to Business Meetings and Informal Barbecues overlooking the beautiful Escarpment. Below is a listing of the different facilities with some information to help you in your banquet dining planning. Main Dining Room Banquet: A beautiful view of the Niagara Falls Escarpment is just one of the numerous points of beauty of the newly remodeled dining facility, with a blend of Early American and Traditional Country Club styling. The seating capacity is up to 360 people, with provisions available to allow semi-privacy to smaller arrangements also. Small Dining Room: This dining room has the perfect view of the Niagara Falls Escarpment with seating capacity up to 75 people. It makes for a wonderful setting for small meetings or parties. The Living Room: An early American themed, spacious 30ft. by 90ft. room offers, of course, the famous Country Club view for a myriad of banquet uses. The room offers a beautiful bar, creating the perfect Wedding Reception area with adjoining access to the Main Dining Room and our Patio Area. During the cold winter months, the natural gas wood fireplace makes a cozy cocktail area for pre-meal Hors D oeuvres parties or complete Station Party packages.

Seating capacity is up to 40 people and all audio/visual tools needed for presentations are available.
