My husband and I could not have asked for a better venue and host for our wedding! We only did our reception here but it would be the most ideal place for the whole event! (The bridal suite is any girls dream!)
Our schedule was really hectic for the day of the wedding and they were very accommodating! They even were so nice as to bring out an extra table and chairs for our “extra” guests.
Definitely the best scenery and ideal place to take some exquisite and unique wedding photos! Thanks again Casa Isabel for making an already amazing day even more special for us!

We had an amazing baby shower here last weekend and could not have been happier with the gorgeous venue, and the friendliness and ease of dealing with the fantastic owner Joel! From start to finish, it was a pleasure dealing with him! The room was set up perfectly for us, and once we decorated and had the food and Mom-osa bar set up, all that was left was the fun and memories that we made! The Mommy to be was very happy! Thanks Joel!

I just recently had my bridal shower at Casa Isabel and it was an amazing experience. The venue is clean and nice inside. Joel, the manager is very helpful and so nice. Anytime I called him with a question or if we needed something that day, he was right there. His hospitality meant everything to me. This is the place to be.

We had a baby shower here, the host was great he was very responsive to our needs, the tables and chairs were set out for us, all we had to do was decorate once we arrived. The venue itself is gorgeous. We had rented a bounce house for the kids to play in and that worked out well. We rented the use of the reception room and it was perfect, kept us cool on a hot day! Thank you Joel for allowing us to have our event here, the Mommy to be loved her shower.

Epic Events and Design LLC has thoroughly enjoyed planning events at this venue. The owners are very accommodating. This space is perfect for ANY occasion.

In the fall of 2022, my then-fiancee (now wife) and I were looking for a venue for our wedding for November 2023. We had looked into a few other venues nearby, but found they were all either lacking in one regard or another, or they wanted to charge us exorbitant prices.

And then we came across Casa Isabel, a beautiful brick villa run by the one-of-a-kind, the absolute unit, Joel. From day one, he guided us through our wedding and answered our questions down to the smallest details, and brought up helpful questions and concerns that we had never even thought of. He had a refreshing, honest but professional, no-nonsense approach that helped to both ease our minds and clarify any lingering issues we may have had. He wasn't afraid to (politely) shoot down a bad idea, always offering an alternative solution while giving us the freedom to do as we pleased.

He helped to put us in touch with other vendors—from our DJ to our photographer to our decorator—all of whom rendered their services deftly and professionally. Him and his network of highly skilled colleagues ensured our wedding day went off without a hitch and without a headache.

At the beginning of this process, my fiancee and I were both fish out of water (admittedly, me more than her), but with Joel's expertise, we realized our dream wedding one step at a time.

By the big day came, we had become so close to Joel we invited him to join our wedding as a guest, during which he continued to serve us as both a helpful and professional guide throughout the day. He got to know both me and my bride's families, endearing himself to us all with his humor and courtesy, while never overstepping boundaries or abandoning his role as venue owner and manager.

When everything was done, he even offered to let several people leave their vehicles overnight so that they could return safely to their homes. The next day, my wife and I returned to receive our security deposit, and did so without issue or delay.

Joel was invariably honest, clear, and prompt in all of his dealings with us. His price was supremely reasonable and he followed through on all promises made. Among the many people who made our wedding possible, I have Joel to thank, and I would recommend Casa Isabel to anyone seeking a memorable, safe, and professional experience for their wedding or any other special occasion.

10-21-2022 will forever ring bells to us and our guests. That would not be the case if it would not have been for Joel and the staff at Casa Isabel in Lake City, Fl. From the day we toured up till our magical evening, so far even after, Joel made the venue feel like home and he was apart of our family. The moment you walk through the front door you’re greeted by the two massive curved stairwells, you’ll feel like you’re in a movie. My wife feel in love with his bridal suite. It has its own personal sauna, and 10 person shower. I believe I was a tad bit early booking, from what I hear there are plans to make a grooms paradise room equipment with pool take and TV’s. Nonetheless, you’re guaranteed to feel like royalty. The reception hall is also exquisite, with more than enough room for a decorator to transform it to whatever your heart may desire. Me and my wife wish we could experience the beauty and euphoria of that day over and over. From the breathtaking views, to the family of deer in the back yard that watched us take photos during our cocktail hour. Please do yourself a favor and don’t overlook Joel and this hidden gem. ::Photos Coming Soon::

Facility had spiderwebs, windows had years of neglect cleaning, could not see out of men changing room due to dirt on windows, women toilet was stopped up and owner refused to attend to it, was not made clear that you have to take all trash with you, no dumpster on site, mosquitos out of control, does not spray or put up candles to prevent getting ate up during day and evening time due to swamp out back of building. Manager unprofessional and rude.For price you pay to rent site, there are better sites to use. Candle was accidentally knocked over in hall and manager threatened to kick the person’s axx which he told several wedding attendees. He said he lives on site but has no regular trash pickup. Very disappointed in attitude of manager and effort to make event a joyful one. I would NOT recommend place under current owner/manager!
