Why We Like This Place

The Alcosta Senior and Community Center not only has something for everyone, it offers a number of wonderful features you don’t always find in a community center.

We love the fact that this venue has both indoor and outdoor event spaces, and comes with a fully equipped commercial kitchen. The center’s banquet facility, the upscale Vista Grande Room, is well suited for wedding receptions, large meetings and other special events. The walls are painted a pleasant dusky peach, and the light oak floor is great for dancing. A high vaulted ceiling and windows with views of rolling hills add to its charm.

Sophisticated lighting and sound systems let you create the mood and music you want: Use lighting to highlight an area in a festive or sultry way; plug in your iPod (or any audio device) to listen to your own playlist.

Multiple doors open to an adjoining terrace, which extends your seating—and your celebration—outside. Shaded by a vine-covered arbor, the terrace is a lovely spot for dining, socializing and simply enjoying the fresh air and view of the hills. When the weather is warm, leave the Vista Grande Room doors open so that guests can flow easily between the two spaces.

Ceremonies here are held in the Gazebo, a Victorian-style confection with a white picket railing and peaked shake roof. Standing in the middle of a park-like setting, it’s encircled by flowering trees and overlooks a broad lawn where family and friends are seated.

Throughout your event, the “park” provides a relaxing place for guests to stroll along brick paths, have a quiet conversation under a tree and even play bocce ball. As you sit on a bench soaking up the sun, you can’t help but appreciate the unexpected beauty and serenity of this private little haven.

We think the Alcosta Senior and Community Center is a real find, and for those on a budget, very easy on the pocketbook.
