"I found The Linksman on a Google search, their Yelp account came up, when I was looking for a venue for my birthday party. I wanted a space that could fit comfortably up to 50 people and could also provide some entertainment. I was finding with a lot of other spaces they were too big for the size of my group or just a big room at a restaurant.
This venue is amazing! It looks nice in pictures but even better in person. A lot of thought and detail went into the planning of this space. The owner, Steven, is a top notch professional. He is quick to respond to messages. He worked with me to schedule a time to tour the venue in person. He even text me the day following my event to see how my event was and thank me for my business.
They allow for outside catering to be brought in and with a licensed professional serve alcohol at your event. Love the flexibility! Was allowed to get in about an hour prior to the start of my event to decorate. Our day of event host was super nice and helpful.
All my guests raved about how much they liked the space and what a good time they had. Not everyone was a golfer but they have other games they can put up on the screen to play. But even non golfers will enjoy using the simulator. Sound system is top notch!!! I opted to not hire a DJ and just have the venue play a curated Spotify playlist. It was great! Do not sit on this place and book today. You will not be disappointed. Thank you again to Steven and his team for a wonderful experience and to help make my birthday celebration a great success."

"This was the perfect place for my husband's surprise 40th birthday! This venue looks like a man cave. It has a games simulator, arcade, pool table, beer pong table, and TV. He also has a fridge that he stocks with drinks, which was awesome! Steven, the owner, is the best at communicating and answers every question you may have. From the moment I booked, everything went smooth. I went with all the vendors he recommended such as taco truck and bartending services. The host, Courtland, was so helpful and friendly to all our guests as well! Everyone had a such a great time! I can't recommend this place enough. If you're looking for a private venue with a lot of things to do, this is the spot to book!"

"We rented out The Linksman for a Friendsgiving party and it was absolutely perfect! It is the most thoughtfully designed event space I have ever been to. The layout is great for entertaining. We were able to enjoy a nice meal together in the beautiful space, then spend the rest of the evening playing pool, using the golf simulator, and listening to music. The simulator had golf games that were fun for our whole group, even people who had never golfed before. We had a blast and could not be happier that we found The Linksman! Thank you!!"

"This place was sick! 12 of us rented the space for birthday party and the vibes were immaculate. The simulator was awesome but all the other amenities really put it over the top. It felt like it was the ultimate man cave. We scheduled 3 hours but ended up adding another hour because we didn't want to leave. Steve, the owner, was awesome and super helpful to keep everything running for us. We ended up golfing for about 2 hours, played 4 person Mario Kart for about an hour then golfed again for the last hour. Would highly recommend using the simulator screen for more than just golf!"
