An open-air pavilion accommodates up to 250 seated guests for weddings of all sizes. The venue also offers elopement packages for groups of 15 or fewer.

A recently renovated fitness center with a wraparound porch completes the athletic campus. Dining is led by Executive Chef Shay Holmes across multiple venues, ranging from casual fare to a members-only lounge with handcrafted cocktails and a curated menu.
