Nice venue, pleasant staff. Good for an intimate evening. Could use an extra bathroom or two.

Outstanding place for an event. We have been here on 4 or 5 occasions and they have all been spectacular.

Very nice atmosphere and clean , have been to a few events there and have had fun at each one. You would never guess it used to be a car dealership!

What a unique & beautiful venue! It has an elegant feel, but down to earth. The re-purposed library desk, now cleverly used as their bar, is beautiful. The cozy VIP rooms off the main room are nice and comfortable - perfect for guests who want a more intimate conversation. Above all, the owners and staff are creative, resourceful, friendly and easy to work with.

We held our fundraiser for Bitney College Prep last night and the space was great and staff very helpful. We hope we can do our next event here as well.

I recently had my wedding reception at the Foothills Event Center and would definitely recommend it! Abby was so great to work with and the venue was beautiful. A great spot for Grass Valley events!

What a great venue for weddings! Also it's flexible enough to host a biz seminar or big party. Nevada County finally has a larger-scale venue with the Foothills:)
