I recently held a surprise birthday party for my husband at Jake's Garage. It was absolutely the perfect location for this! It was a beautiful night so we were able to have the garage door open with some tables outside. There was plenty of seating for 30+ guests and we could have had even more! So many guests commented on the venue with its cool vibe and uniqueness. There's also plenty of parking across the street. I had the event catered and there is a full kitchen to accommodate this. Also, I had a bartender who used the movable bar next to the refrigerator. (We never got around to using the Foosball table but that's available also!) We ended up not staying the night however I'm sure we would have been quite comfortable in one of the king sized beds. Overall, I give Jake's Garage a five star rating and recommend it to anyone needing a venue for an event or an overnight stay in Pecatonica! (It's a plus to have a nice Italian restaurant right across the street also.)
