Andrew M. booked a team offsite for 25 people
Awesome space in the hills. Kerry and Chad were superb hosts, extremely accommodating and communicative. We did a company team offsite there for ~25 folks and it was a perfect indoor-outdoor space. Highly recommend!
Peter M. booked a team offsite for 6 people
Wonderful property! I hosted a team offsite here and everyone loved it. Lot’s of beautiful spaces and a huge yard to explore. The hosts were extremely thoughtful and helpful. Will definitely book again.
Mai-Chi V. booked a team meeting for 15 people
This was our third time booking with Kerryn for a team retreat, and once again she and her husband were perfect hosts! It was a bit warmer than we expected but there was still plenty of shade and places to hang out outside of the sun. For gathering in one place, I think it's most comfortable for 10-12, but it can hold a lot more with different breakout areas. It's a lovely property!
Carrie G. booked a bar mitzvah party for 50 people
Kerryn's space is amazing! Perfect for our event. She was fantastic to work with - flexible and provided helpful suggestions. Thank you, Kerryn!
Leilani N. booked a wedding party for 40 people
I rented this beautiful estate for my intimate wedding party. All of my guests had places to sit and enjoyed themselves exploring the property, playing on the bocce ball court, and the ping pong table. The pictures don't do this place justice! The property is absolutely beautiful along with the weather. Kerryn and Chad are great hosts. I highly suggest this place and hope to rent again in the future.
Shawn S. booked a production for 7 people
Kerryn was an absolute pleasure to work with. Very accommodating and helpful from pre-production and throughout the shoot. The space was beautiful with a nice variety of vignettes. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!
Raina P. booked a high school reunion for 25 people
We absolutely loved our time using Chad and Kerryn's backyard retreat! I booked their place for a small 10 year high school reunion with ~18 people. Chad was an amazing host who helped answer all my questions leading up to our event, he helped me set-up the space in the morning, and was there if we had any issues. We hired a bartender for the event and the bar was perfect for our event. The pool was the perfect temperature, we enjoyed the bocce ball, and were able to play a slideshow on the tv in the pool room! Everyone was raving about the atmosphere and will remember Chad and Kerryn's place for a long time. I have already been recommending their place to others! 100% you have to book it!
Grace P. booked a filmed interview for 20 people
Overall, Luxury Ranch-Style Estate is everything it is pictured as. We are a Doc-Production crew of about 20 folks. Everyone was able to self report and park in the neighborhood with no problems. We had a couple of noise interruptions when filming outside, as to be expected when in the elements, but Kerryn and her Husband, Chad, were able to help quickly resolve the challenges. We were able to get 11 different looks out of the home, so diversity in spaces was plentiful. The home overall is beautiful and has wonderful hosts. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for their next film location.
