2 reviews for Highlands Country Club
Came here for a little get together/dinner on a Sunday afternoon. The view as you drive up toward the club is amazing and it didn't hurt that it was a bright and sunny clear day. Parking is reserved for members, but parking is easily found on the street right on front of the club. The atmosphere was pleasant on the patio and within the fireside hall where we dined the night away. Attached to the hall is a kitchen as well as a deck to enjoy the view of the opposite side of the hill. From the deck you can view the inside amenities the club offers.
As a member you can enjoy such activities as tennis, swimming, the club room, and the jacuzzi. Kids can run around and frolic while the adults mingle and dine. They have sports equipment, volleyball courts, tether ball, and other things to keep them occupied... or yourself. If you are here just for an event then the club is opened up for you as well. I have no idea how one becomes a member, but im guessing most of the residents that live around the club are part members just because of their residence. Our party was well accommodated and we hosted roughly 60 people with tons of room to spare and wander around within the hall. I believe the room can be reserved for your special occasion without membership, but am quite uncertain on the rest of the club. It definitely is a nice place to unwind or enjoy some down time.

In our search for a wedding venue, we stopped by the Hiller Highlands Country Club one night, which happens to be right around the corner from my house.
The venue looked very nice, and there was actually a really neat event taking place inside. Folks were singing and jamming, the smell of BBQ was in the air, and we wanted to be inside with them! The view was amazing and the grounds were well kept. Although we had heard the parking lot was reserved for members only, there was plenty of street parking. We were jazzed!
Unfortunately, our enthusiasm waned when we couldn't get anyone to speak with us. We sent an email...no response. We left a voice message...no response.
In planning an event, it's important to have prompt and clear communication with the folks you're going to be dealing with. We would have loved to have been able to speak with someone about the facility; however, if we couldn't even get that conversation started, we figured things wouldn't get any easier down the road.
