My husband and I decided to have a short engagement so finding this venue was a heaven send. They pretty much have a vendor for everything minus a photographer. We decided to go with another cake vendor but that was based off preference. Going with an all inclusive venue made planning a wedding in less than 4 months a breeze. The food was amazing and all the staff we worked with was very personable, helpful and professional. They were very responsive whenever we had questions or concerns and our wedding day went beautifully. Highly recommend!

Perfect place to hold a Bass Lake California micro wedding! High-end luxury, conveniently located, very easy to find, yet its a hidden gem! Plenty of space, privacy indoors and out, luscious grounds...It could not have been more beautiful!

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved having our wedding at The Pines Resort! Their communication style was clear, quick, and left lots of room for us to get creative in the planning process. The venue itself is gorgeous and all-inclusive, with beautiful minimalist decor that created the perfect backdrop without added stress. Brittany, their phenomenal on-site wedding planner, made everything so easy by connecting us with vendors they frequently work with who understand the venue and their approach. We felt empowered to get creative with alternatives when we wanted to make the day our own. With the venue and planning taken care of, we could focus on each other and our love. The Pines Resort receives 100/100 stars from us and we cannot recommend them highly enough for your special day!

After extensive searching, we stumbled upon this place via family friend recommendation. It was perfect! The owners responded quickly to any questions and concerns we had. Not only was the venue GORGEOUS, but we, as well as the wedding party, were able to rent the venue the night before and the night of the wedding. It saved us a lot of stress because our wedding party was all in one place! This also allowed our vendors to set up earlier in the day. We love Red Tail Ranch and are planning on spending a weekend there in the near future!

China Peak is a remote venue, so there are some complications that come with that, but anyone that is looking for incredible natural beauty at an affordable price should consider getting married there! We were able to have a wedding that everyone loved within our budget. The staff is friendly and while the accommodations are a little more on the rustic side, it is an incredible option for an outdoorsy couple. We got so many compliments on how beautiful it was, the food is excellent for the price, and being able to stay at the venue made it easy for people to hang out late and really enjoy the day. I would recommend it to a friend!
