My review is based on my experience as a wedding guest and my interaction with people who run the events at this park. During my visit, I was very much offended by the racist tone. Arlington Hall is a replica of Robert E Lees home. There is no mention of slavery here. This venue celebrates a fictional, sanitized Confederacy, and ignores the enslavement the Confederate army fought to preserve. As a someone using this venue, it is important that you know, many of your guests will be very offended especially after the horrific events in Charlottesville. To many, Robert E Lee and the Confederate army are symbols of racism and white supremacy.

Very nice place to visit and relax. Ive stood and sat around the statue and marveled at the history of this place. I am here several generations later from the day it was dedicated and see a man who did what he believed was right. The modern American does not have the same standards but we can remember how far weve come and be thankful for progress.

Very nice park and facility! But what an awful shame that it was built to honor a defender of slavery. Would be so much nicer if it were renamed, and dealt more critically with the history/legacy of slavery and Jim Crow.

Beware, your guests will be greeted by a Robert E Lee statue on a pedestal. For those raised with a social conscience in the 21st century, this will be offensive. Consider other venues that do not carry a racist tone.

Very cool venue for an event but for the lack of parking. Had to walk a few blocks in order to get a space. Building itself is very nice.

Beautiful venue for upscale events. Well designed facilities make it easy to load food/materials and ample parking/valet-space for guests.

I liked the park, but found it a bit small. The landscaping was nice. The building was inspiring.
