Quaint, Charming Backyard and Parlor Event Space in Orange County

Our event was held in the backyard of this home. With the renting of this space came one room, where you could get ready, one restroom, the living room and dining room area as well. It was a beautiful place to hold our baptism event for our 1 year old twins. Now the only issue I am having is that the owner(Jack) of this home was constantly around and would critique everything we were doing when setting up and throughout our whole event something seemed to be always not to his liking. I want to say his issue was how loud the kids were but then again it is a kids party. What were you expecting? We still tried to make him feel welcomed . Offered him to eat and even grab a beer. But then he was getting upset because the kids had candy in the dining room area where he would hang out from time to time. Sad but true.. my little sister even heard him saying stuff because they were making a mess. Now isn't that why we pay and we clean up after? To leave however he wants? This is where the situation gets a little tougher . Jack says that he is being sued by the city because of not reporting taxes on what he is making from the events in his home.. so he made us feel very cautious of everything that we were doing. He would always refer back to the situation he is in. We don't know if it's true or if he simply said that to make us feel like we had to be very careful with what we were doing ? How are we going to hold an event comfortably with him just being on us? Now he wanted everything back to normal at the end and so we respected that. We cleaned up. And did the best we could to leave everything back to normal. As we were finishing he came to the backyard and was moving stuff around because we didn't put it in the exact place he had it. Mind you.. there is still a cleaning fee that we paid. He was complaining while doing so. If you are going to be there watching everyone's movements and still complain at the end after everything was paid to you why even rent out the space. Honestly it is a beautiful home but I would definitely put my money on something better with people that are not as rude as this owner. Truly disappointed.

Great spot, location, and hosts! Very quick to respond to questions and offer a helping hand.

Brandy and Jack were great hosts and very responsive. They communicated with the rental company and got me a very good quote on tables and chairs. The place is beautiful and bigger than it seems in the photos. We had a party of 70 people and they easily fit outside. The dance floor wasn’t too crowded with 20+ people on it at a time. Word of advice: bring some lanterns/candles for added lighting, although the string lights were enough to create a charming ambiance.

Wonderful setting with genuine and caring people. Love Jack and Brandy for taking care of us.

I’m pleased to write a review on some of most accommodating host. Brandy and Jack did anything and everything possible to make sure our guest and myself were comfortable happy and having a good time. Before the event itself jack and brandy were very inviting and were happy to lend us some of their own tables. None the less the venue is beautiful don’t need much to make your festivity pop. We were allowed to use their restroom we weee allowed to use a room for coats and bags. I was very happy with this booking my family and friends were in aww of how spectacular the venue looked. The ambience is perfect for any gathering. I would book here again.

Beautiful space recommend to anyone who has a event.

Great space! Had the most beautiful memories for the wedding!
