“We had great communication from start to finish with this venue. The venue itself was absolutely stunning, and our family and friends are still telling us how much they loved the location and wedding! I would 10/10 recommend this venue for future weddings. I would probably skip paying for guest parking or have a system you want them to follow because it seemed there was some confusion in the end, tracking our wedding guest vehicles vs restaurant parking. Otherwise, everything was perfect!”

“Coyote Hills Golf Course was a wonderful choice for our wedding venue. From the beginning, the communication with the staff was easy, friendly and effective. The outdoor ceremony site was worth every penny - it was beautifully landscaped and provided a gorgeous backdrop for our vows. While the indoor reception venue was a little tight, the staff did a great job coordinating the event flow and ensuring everything ran smoothly. The servers were friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. A special shoutout to Hannah, Jordan and Shelby - they were amazing and helped make our special day perfect.”
