northern california outdoor ranch wedding venue summer wedding

Gather and celebrate surrounded by elegance in nature.

1,000 acres of the same open space views gold rush settlers were awestruck by when they settled the land in the 1800s.

A generationally family-operated ranch, the land is forever protected as farmland through the Marin Agriculture Land Trust. Event proceeds support continued regenerative farming and land conservation efforts in West Marin County. We look forward to sharing the sweeping coastal pasture views with those who also appreciate open spaces. Available for weddings, private events, workshops, and retreats.

Welcome your guests to experience the natural, rugged beauty of Northern California in a private, secluded location.

The idyllic backdrop of rolling hills and dramatic forests creates one of the most scenic locations in the Bay Area. The ranch is tucked away in the peaceful coastal town of Tomales. West Marin is one of the most unique areas in the world with sweeping vistas of open space but near luxury lodging along the coast or next to the farm-to-table-food-and-wine scene in the historic town of Petaluma.

The venue is two miles from the Pacific Coast, one hour north of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, and just outside of Sonoma County’s renowned wine country.

Originally built over 150+ years ago, the Historic Barn has been lovingly restored to highlight the beauty of its unique architecture. The interior features Italian-style polished concrete floor, elegant chandeliers, dimmable lighting throughout, and cathedral ceilings.

Our Northern California ranch prioritizes environmental sustainability in our land management. The Haven is a sanctuary for some of California’s most beloved wildlife creatures, such as deer, quail, geese, seasonal otters, and endangered coho salmon. Our hope is to share our passion of land preservation, natural farming and sustainable agriculture with individuals who also have a love for nature and will appreciate the rare, untouched by man, raw beauty of the coastal property. 

We encourage fellow enthusiasts to check out ways to get connected with local sustainable agriculture communities. Our family regularly offers learning opportunities at the ranch, fostering awareness of land conservation and regenerative agriculture practices from farm to plate. We hope to be a positive impact in nurturing a sustainable future for our community, the land, and the flora and fauna that call West Marin home.
