Riverfront Boathouse

Riverfront Rowing has better prices than what was quoted here in 2012.
Beginning sweep rowing classes are stated on the Riverfront recapture website as $ 200 for four weeks of lessons twice a week. It gets $ 20 cheaper for intermediate and $ 40 cheaper for advanced lessons.
See the internet site for even more opportunities.
Best fun deal in town!

I went to a Law Prom last evening at the Riverfront Boathouse. I’ve never been there before and based on first impressions thought the entrance was a little scary. No lighted sign or anything but once you drive a few feet straight you’re greeted by a huge building. I wasn’t too impressed with the venue selected for Spring Fling, I think they could have done better. The venue would have been nice if the event was scheduled for the evening. The banquet facility didn’t impress because it was a gray building and lacked any architectural identity. If you wanted to rent this space out for an event you would need a LARGE budget to add any character to the room.
Food– heh I didn’t even touch it. Servers didn’t seem like they knew how to serve drinks. Two servers at each bar station (one cleared the table the other served, not efficient uses of staff).
I did enjoy learning about the other services available at the facility. To me it felt like a big hall and that was it. It’s by a river but it didn’t seem like they used it to their advantage.
They offer rowing classes for both youth and adults. A 4-​day rowing class for a beginner is $ 420. A 2-​day rowing class for beginners is $ 235. The prices are cheaper for experienced rowers. Adult classes are cheaper than youth classes. For an adult 4 sessions will run you $ 170. I think that’s an amazing deal because its something new to do.
If you’re into fishing this is a great spot to fish for bass. Just remember to get a license. I think the programs sponsored by Riverfront is amazing. On June 9, 2012 they giving kids an opportunity to sample all the activities children can engage in on the Riverfront. For more information contact Craig Mergins at (860)713−3131×325.
Overall impression of the Riverfront, banquet hall wasn’t impressive. I won’t ever consider using it for any future events. The youth and sporting programs they sponsor is affordable and different. There’s lots to do in Hartford you simply have to look and if you enjoy the outdoors this is a great place!
