Reviews
"It was a cool building but it's really tiny. Not great for large gatherings. I love the porch in the back though."
"Cute little place. Build on makes it bigger, nice deck on the back. Actual jail doesn't stop noise echo, especially with kids running around. Walls are red brick. We had a good time though and I recommend it for parties, celebrations, etc"
"I have been to a few parties at the jail house and I have personally rented from another area on the same location. Very affordable! The jailhouse is small but the patio off of the back helps with that and adds more room for the party. Tons of yard for kids to play in if a kids party. Its has a large bathroom as well as a kitchen with a sink, small fridge and quite a bit of counter space. If you are throwing something small and quaint, the jailhouse is perfect!"
"Historic Kent building that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and later moved to the park. The jailhouse is now located near the headquarters building for the Kent Parks and Recreation at Fred Fuller Park."
"I have rented the Old Kent Jail three times for parties, it is a little crowed inside, but if the weather is nice it has a beautiful deck. The Kitchen is very nice, the bathroom is clean and the grounds are well kept"
