VENUE TOUR

You may tour the River Center Venue according to the following:

Saturdays and Sundays

Walk-ins Available:

The site is open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays from 8 am – 3 pm. If no rental event is scheduled or taking place, the Trustee (staff) on-site can open the facilities (barn, kitchen, and Riverview Ranch House) for about 15-20 minutes or as necessary. Before your visit, please refer to our online calendar and make sure no event is taking place to avoid any conflict. No appointment is necessary, walk-ins to see the barn are welcome on weekends only. Renter (s) are welcome to visit the outdoor spaces during regular business hours on their own, and for their own onsite meetings, but cannot expect to have access to our facilities, meet with the Rental Events Manager, or interact with staff without a scheduled appointment.

Preparing For Your Visit:

Upon your arrival at the River Center, please identify our Trustees (staff) onsite by their badge. You may also direct to the Leon and Pete Peters Welcome Pavilion, or Riverview Ranch House for assistance. Our wonderful Trustees will be located around this area and will be happy to help.
Note: Our Trustees will not answer your rental question or specifics and will only provide basic and general information (the same from our website).
  • To discuss specifics, ask questions, or secure your date (complete paperwork and place a deposit), you may contact our Rental Events Manager to set up an official meeting.
