Lower Level Rooms

Three rooms are nestled in our lower level making them a little more secluded. These rooms are ideal for small business meetings, classes, and lectures or break-out sessions when renting the Grand Room. They may be used in combination as one large room holding up to 240 seated guests, or as two or three separate rooms each seating between 50-80 guests depending on the format. When the rooms are combined, the far room has a wall with windows that overlooks the natural wetlands. These rooms are a nice space for social events and are ideal for something a little more casual and relaxed while enjoying a bit of the Gardens natural beauty. Weddings may also be held in this area.
