About this venue

Nestled in the heart of Sutter Creek, our venue is just steps from one of California’s most charming small towns. Main Street is lined with wine tasting rooms, cozy restaurants, local bars, and welcoming shops — all walkable and full of character. Think Stars Hollow or a Hallmark movie, where the pace is slower, the people are friendly, and the town feels like home. With boutique hotels and inns within walking distance, your guests can settle in and fully enjoy the weekend — no shuttles or long drives required. Located in Amador County’s wine country, the region offers Napa-like roads & wineries without the crowds — making it the perfect backdrop for a relaxed and unforgettable celebration. It's Northern California's best kept secret. And with Sacramento just an hour away and San Francisco only two, it’s an easy escape that feels worlds away.
