Need a poll on wedding venues!!

Looking for places with great water views and budget friendly venue (looking around $70 a head), and has a large dance floor.
Thanks for the opinions!!

If there are any other places I should look into, please let me know :)

Edit:
Looking for a sunday night for 100 guests (max)

thanks for the replies. I am going to see all of these venues and 'Windows on the Lake' and although they all do not have water views, they are a friendlier price from what I have gathered from talking with them. I also saw the Riviera which was nice but they required a 125 guest min which would put me over budget. (I can only afford 100 guests).

wish me luck!

Mediterranean Manor
I won't even review them. The entire place is extremely out dated and the owner was very rude and in a rush. They only allow in-door weddings and is located on a very high traffic road.

We are leaning toward Windows on the Lake but I am still worried about the noise of cars during the ceremony... Has any other bride noticed this too? We may keep looking but not sure yet...

Hope the info helps! I will post pictures of all these places as soon as I have them on my computer.

[b] UPDATE [/b]
I uploaded pictures of all these places in my photo albums!!

I believe out of the places you have listed, only Sunset Harbour would fit your criteria of both waterviews and under $70 pp. Giorgio's is the only other RH with waterviews on your list, I think, and it's quite a bit pricier.

Isnt Giorgios a golf course? I dont remember there being waterviews there.

you shouldn't have a problem at all.

When I get home I'll try and look at my quotes that I had gotten from other venues.
