The Knotty Oak 

5.0

Philo, CA
  • Up to 100 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $15,000

The oldest house in Philo (1888), it was Anderson Valley’s first post office and stagecoach stop that decades later was the Philo Pottery Inn. During the painstaking restoration we did using nearly all salvaged materials, its secrets and history began to resurface. We were constantly discovering little finds, over 200 1880's old glass bottles buried on the grounds to the headline clad 1915 newspaper lined walls in the main house. It’s been part remodel and archeological dig. Now it’s ready to host events & make fresh memories for decades to come. A few years ago we were lucky enough to add 20+ acres of open meadow lands & forest contiguous to TKO for events & glamping and built an amphitheater by Indian Creek in the woods. We can host up to 100 and have have 12 bedrooms in three fab houses, plus glamping tents. There are so many ways to utilize the property and also vintage trailers and wacky Japanese cars to get creative with. Come see for yourself and be part of its evolving history.

“We are Jenni Grubba Events and we stayed at Knotty Oak in order to gauge interest for a client of ours and I am so excited to plan weddings here! Mary spent so much quality time with us showing us the spaces, making us yummy cocktails, and just hanging out. I've never experienced a warmer welcome to a venue that we did with Mary. The houses are immaculate, rustic, so cozy, and the kitchen is huge. The event spaces are plentiful and the venue is so flexible with how you use them. You cannot go wrong planning your wedding here. Lean into the pros and you'll have the best time ever!”

“Rating: 5/5 stars Our wellness retreat at The Lodge at Bodega Bay was nothing short of phenomenal. The setting was picturesque, the staff were professional and attentive, and the amenities were thoughtfully curated for a relaxing, wellness-focused stay. From our charming, well-stocked guestrooms to the large infinity hot pool overlooking the bay, every corner of the lodge provided an opportunity for rejuvenation. An added delight was the access to private Doran Beach, truly a testament to the retreat's ethos of connecting with nature. The on-site restaurant was excellent, offering healthy, beautifully presented dishes that were delicious. The Lodge surpassed all our expectations, skillfully merging luxury with tranquility. We eagerly look forward to our return for future retreats, and we're grateful to the staff for making our stay exceptional. Join us next time to prioritize your health and wellness! https://www.daxmeredith.com/ Dax”
