I don't think of The Ranch as "country" like you may be thinking of it - I see that more as an English garden type place. It's beautiful, but now that I look at it a little more, the photo of it at night does look like a large wood cabin. It's still gorgeous but if that's not what you're going for you may not want that place.
Heritage Pointe is my favorite - stunning!

Thanks Girls!!!
Yeah, I don't mind the "wood cabin" feel, I just don't want it too country!!!
But I would say from the pictures Heritage pointe golf club would be a good choice!!!
My mom and I quickly threw out some number, for 35guests including dinner,wine,gst and gratuity and hall rental about $2500.00! That includes EVERYTHING. But it would be a cash bar!
What an awesome price, we were really happy about how inexpensive it would be!!!

I like the Ranch the best. The food sounds amazing, they have small group packages which means they know how to have the intimate affair you're looking to throw, the interior is so beautiful, and I would die for that pricing! I can see where you might be concerned about the rustic feel, but it looks like the inside is not cabin-y at all to me.

Yeah, it is kinda rustic-y! But your right CW the pricing is VERY good, so we'll have to see what Saturday brings, maybe they'll let me take some pictures!

Heritage Point is very classy while the Ranche is very intimate and comfy. I really like them both and I wish I could have MINE at either of those places!

HOLY HOLY HOLY!!!
Iam so excited!!! I know Crystal Ridge is not on the "Favorite list" for you girls!!!  Just kidding!!!!
Trish just called me from there first off she treated me so well, I told her a bit about our experience on Sunday and she said she couldn't believe that a business would do that and that she would BEAT their prices!!!!WAAAAAAHOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I'm gonna sit down and figure out what were looking at for prices!!!!
The best part! (I think) because our wedding is very small she has an option called "Tab Le Doe" This is a menu the guest gets to make, they don't have to have what "everyone else gets" it,s a 4course meal of anything they want on the menu fo ONLY $1.00 MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anywho, We are off to check it out on Saturday, I hope its as great looking as it seems!!!!!
Just thought I'd share!!!!
Trish was so great to, I'm sure she'll let me take pictures!

I love them all but the Ranche has to be my favorite and with your guest list I think it would be a great deal. I love the brunch menu what times your wedding?

They all look nice. Just make sure with Crystal Ridge the wedding's not too close to the golf course. We rejected one place for that reason - we didn't want strangers practically walkig through our reception or guests getting beaned by a golf ball!
