Absolutely beautiful!

This venue was absolutely perfect!
We fell in love as soon as we visited, the view that you get from there is just gorgeous. We got so many complements from friends and family about the venue.
Our family had the opportunity to spend some time together before our wedding because they were able to stay with us.
The venue has everything, and I mean everything you’ll need for your big day and more.
Jessica and Mitchell were awesome people that helped us in every step of our journey.

Highly recommend!

Beautiful location for a wedding or family reunion

The Chateau is the perfect location for a wedding, family reunion, or special event! The views are breathtaking, the large rooms all have private bathrooms which makes it so luxurious for every guest! The beds were all so comfortable, and everyone in our group felt pampered and well taken care of! We were there for a family reunion and had a lot of fun cooking together in the largest kitchen, however there are several cooking areas throughout! The younger generation enjoyed the downstairs game room, while us older generations enjoyed sipping wine and enjoying the amazing views and pretending we were in Europe, as that is the full vibe of the house! William and Amanda were very attentive to work with, check in and check out were so easy! We are already planning next year’s stay because we want to make this beautiful place our new family tradition! Definitely deserving of five stars!!

5/11/2024 Wedding

We had a great experience at Chateau Escondido. The house was properly clean and ready when we arrived. John and Teresa the caretakers were always polite and willing to help. All of the utilities worked fine. The required vendors, DJ Frank and Guillermo (Valet service) did a great job. Could not have asked for a better experience and everyone who attended the wedding was highly impressed with the venue and the service. Bekker’s catering did a great job and Kimberly Harrison (Wedding Coordinator with Bekker’s) was fantastic. Great experience all around. Highly recommended for a DIY venue wedding.

Great place Mitchell and Jessica were the coordinator and property managers that walked us through step by step.

Beautiful venue and location. So much space to work with. We end up having rain on our wedding. There was a rain plan that took it indoor and partial outdoor setup. Mitchell and Jessica Chingay were great and been answered to evry question.

Amazing Experience!

Had a last minute event that I needed a venue for and I reached out they got back to me within 15 minutes we had a quick phone call I saw the property the next day and I was sold! They were super helpful with coordinating and had chairs and tables at the property available which was great the views are AMAZING! And so are the bedrooms! They even left us complimentary snacks and breakfast items which was an unexpected but lovely surprise!! Had coffee in multiple places throughout the house which was great for our guests and had very fluffy towels ;) Very competitively priced and worked with me on my budget! Would definitely rebook them!

Not responsive and provide horrible vendors on their list

We had our wedding here two weekends ago. The actual house and views were fabulous. Communication with the staff, items in the house like towels etc missing, dirty floors, broken ovens and freezers were just some of the issues we ran into. They need to figure out how to cater to large events and put new people on their preferred vendors list. The photographer and catering on their list both did not do a great job and did not communicate well.
Thank goodness for our event planner who we hired outside of their preferred vendors list! She saved the event.
You need to have an event planner that can communicate for you, as it was very stressful to not have communication from them and their employees all had different answers about questions we had before our big day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
