Where do I even start? This place is beautiful and wowed me over and over again. Number one thing- it is so peaceful. The views of the sound while drinking my morning coffee and listening to the birds outside; then you walk around and there are sheep and an alpaca (or a llama?
Went to Scimitar Ridge Ranch for my husband’s annual Christmas event. The ranch had a big venue for the event included a big kitchen, stage, enough room for 300 people. They had a nice catering services food was delicious. For the lodging stayed at their lodge, which had the perfect cozy Christmas environment.
We hosted a wedding ‘event’ for family and friends. As soon as I walked in the door I was in tears of the beauty. We rented the lodge and both cabins. Everyone loved it. The quietness, beauty, and rustic ambiance was everything we could hope for and more.
Getting married at Scimitar Ridge Ranch
Scimitar Ridge Ranch comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
Corporate events & private parties at Scimitar Ridge Ranch
Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Scimitar Ridge Ranch — barn venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
