Lake Cuyamaca Recreation & Park District

About this venue

We have two venues: Island: Lake Cuyamaca has several scenic, natural sites suitable for small outdoor weddings. Our staff would be happy to show you different locations that may work for you, and we will do anything else we can to help you make this a memorable day. One very important thing to remember - Lake Cuyamaca is in the mountains and weather extremes can happen. Although the Julian area does not normally get a lot of snow, it does snow occasionally. Because of this, we do not recommend having your outdoor wedding here between the months of November and April. Ole Firehouse: The Firehouse is a newly renovated former fire station with a 40' x 60' event room, the perfect space for both weddings and receptions. Amenities include the venue room, a kitchen and restrooms, an outdoor patio area, a large, shaded deck, and an upstairs bridal dressing room. It has a 78 person indoor capacity with the Firehouse bay doors closed and a 120 person capacity when they are open.
