From the outside... and really the inside too, KeyLime Cove looks like this fantastic not so little waterpark dream escape. But it also holds a large banquet facility that puts other facilities to shame. We searched relentlessly to find the perfect venue that served our need for unique but not too kitschy and found it here. I have visited several times and have never been met by an unfriendly employee, the banquet food is simply fabulous (I actually received several compliments from my guests about this) and bonus, it has a spa on site and they worked with me to provide the services that I needed to make my wedding extra special. The cost is very reasonable and did I mention how friendly everyone was? I highly recommend KeyLime for your perfect wedding adventure!
