About Us

When you get married here, plan to stay long enough to take full advantage of all this friendly, family-oriented lodge and the Central Coast have to offer!

CEREMONIES     RECEPTIONS     REHEARSAL DINNERS     152 HOTEL ROOMS & SUITES FOR WEDDING BLOCKS

Although the front of the Main Lodge resembles a huge, modern-day log cabin, the grounds behind it bring to mind a lovely English garden. Rows of sculpted hedges separated by paths, bushes and beds of vibrantly colored flowers meander among Monterey pines. Next to the garden, A BROAD LAWN SERVES AS BOTH CEREMONY AND RECEPTION SITE for OUTDOOR WEDDINGS. Couples get married in a white lattice gazebo at one end, and dance on a patio in front of a covered bandstand at the other; the entire expanse of grass in between is turned into an al fresco dining room filled with linen-covered tables.

INDOOR RECEPTIONS are held in the PEACOCK BALLROOM. With wall coverings of rosy beige, it derives additional warmth from an abundance of pine wainscoting and trim. Other pluses are a high ceiling, movable dance floor, adjustable lighting and a built-in, granite-topped pine bar. After the celebration, you and your guests can chat it up in the Lounge, where a fire blazes in the floor-to-ceiling river rock fireplace, and chandeliers glow overhead. If you’re fortunate enough to be here for a few days, there’s a world of things to do outside the Lodge, too. Cambria itself is a quaint village, noted for its local artists and craftspeople and filled with shops, galleries and boutiques. Hearst Castle is a mere eight miles to the north, the beach is minutes away, and  wine tasting has become a popular pastime in surrounding San Luis Obispo County.

Catering, Ceremony & Reception Venue
 
The garden venue at Cambria Pines Lodge was visually stunning, and the drinks/food--punch, wine, champagne; hors d'oeuvres, salad, rolls and main courses were fresh and scrumptious. The staff was exceedingly professional and courteous. I cannot say enough about the wedding venue services of Cambria Pines Lodge and will sing its praises to anyone who asks. Special kudos to the Chef.
