About this venue

We are located less than a mile from town, seemingly worlds away.

    This is one, absolutely, wonderful place. My wife and I had our wedding here...Let me tell ya. It was magical. The owners are exceedingly nice and helpful. Setup day of...there was plenty of time and the onsite staff was beyond helpful, I mean above and beyond. The bartenders were stellar, we had such a blast at the bar. They were so absolutely lovely and jovial. The venue is so gorgeous. I mean it really is the perfect desert oasis. It is well lit and well setup up. It's cozy and warm and just simply wonderful. We elected for the tacos and they were freakin awesome. They also did my favorite with grilled onions and peppers. I loved getting married there. We had a native/western ceremony and it was the perfect fit. I couldn't have imagined a more perfect place. I highly recommend!!!!!!
