After that we had a lot of people asking to have a wedding or an event here, so we decided to build our Barn to share our beautiful property for weddings, receptions, parties, fundraiser or special event.

Sackett Ranch was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was efficient, concise and attentive. The venue itself is like a dream - rustic, spacious and beautifully maintained with picturesque views. When we were short on a tablecloth, the event coordinator promptly brought one by for us to borrow. The quality of their work and overall value was gorgeous. We couldn't have asked for a better setting to celebrate our special day.
