Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- A serene redwood forest hideaway in the Santa Cruz Mountains, this lovely, nature-forward retreat offers a variety of woodsy wedding enclaves to celebrate with your nearest and dearest.
- Exchange vows in Peace Park, amid a grove of soaring old-growth redwoods; receptions follow in Pixie's Garden, an open-air patio adorned with glowing bistro lights, or inside Las Alas Lodge, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame view of the photogenic property.
- Extend the joy with overnight lodigng in rustic-chic cabins for up to 22 guests—including two cozy, light-filled spaces for wedding party prep—plus plenty of room for DIY glampers.
