Anyone have any ideas for Rehearsal dinneroptions near Crystal Springs?   We wanted something more casual, for 20-30 people.

Thanks!

  • Why don't you do it downstairs in the wine cellar?  It's a really cool, unique atmosphere.  Whenever we go to Crysal Springs we just stay on site at the resort, so I'm not sure what else is out there besides Granny's Pancake House, which I'm pretty sure is not the casual environment you're looking for Wink

    BBQ at the Chef's Garden at the Grand Cascades Lodge. Beautiful setting and perfect for a small group. 

    There's also the Cava Winery across the street that has a party room. 
  • There are a lot of restaurants right there, but they are pricey.  The Irish Cottage on 23 is pretty good.  About 10 miles away is Mohawk House near Route 15 and they're very nice and easy to get to.
  • If you go about 10 minutes down the road into Vernon there is a great place called "The George Inn". Its on Rt. 94 in McAfee. We had our rehearsal dinner there. It was wonderful. It wasnt super expensive and we had a private room. They worked well within my inlaw's budget and the food is great. PM me if you want their phone number.
  • Milano Italian restaurant hamburg. On 94 right down the street from crystal springs

  • We had ours in the Garden Room at Grand Cascades and it was beautiful! Irish Cottage has a backroom with a bar, Milano's is BYOB, George Inn has a nice party room, Sparta has the Mohawk House and the Lake Mohawk Country Club, Kites in Vernon at Minerals Resort also does parties and my personal favorite is Casa Bianca in Oak Ridge. There is also a new restaurant with a party room down rt 23 that used to be called Michaels, but I forget the new name. You can also check out Black Bear Country Club in Franklin for a room or lots of cute places in Warwick NY as well. Cava Winery is nice, but my mom was at a shower there and thought the food was poorly done, so just check on the options. The Hawks Nest is that new restaurant at Mountain Creek, but I am not sure if they do parties. Smokey's in Vernon has great food, but I am not sure if they have the space for a party. If you are willing to travel to West Milford, Cafe Amore is awesome as well.

    Smokey's has great food but will not accomodate for a large party. I tried to have my rehearsal dinner there in their back area and they really gave me a hard time. They did not want to give up that space for their regular Friday night crowd. They were most unhelpful.
