Our daughter had her wedding here on 9/21/24. It was a dream come true. The views, the house, the sunset, the porch, the swing, and the accommodations were all amazing. Randy was great to work with. Everything was perfect!

While not having held a ceremony here, I am familiar with the venue. The warm equestrian vibe with the gorgeous backdrop of the sierras makes this place truly unique and beautiful. There’s plenty of space to scale the venue for the size of your group. Amador county is so serene yet not too far from the valley making this a great option for a wedding, quinceañera etc.
