It's the kind of place where every corner looks like it belongs in a wedding album. . One of the unique perks for couples is the chance for the groom and his groomsmen to enjoy a morning round of golf before the festivities begin -- a tradition many wedding parties absolutely love. And depending on the day, you might even catch the sound of sports cars racing around the neighboring Laguna Seca track, adding a fun bit of local character to the atmosphere. . The weather is typically mild, but as with most coastal spots, the fog can roll in and bring cooler temperatures, especially later in the afternoon. It only adds to the romantic vibe, but it's worth keeping a light layer handy. . The bridal suite is truly impressive -- spacious, comfortable, and perfectly designed for a full hair-and-makeup setup. There's plenty of room for the bridal party to relax, get ready, and enjoy the morning without feeling crowded or rushed. . What really elevates this venue, though, is the staff. They create an incredibly professional and welcoming environment, handling every detail with ease and making the entire experience feel top-notch from start to finish. . A beautiful location, thoughtful amenities, and outstanding service -- this clubhouse is a standout choice for couples dreaming of a refined, scenic Monterey wedding.

I'm so glad I didn't, I came across Battle field in Hollister, I called and spoke to Craig he was awesome he explained into detail how the out door laser tag was diffrent than in door laser tag. My son was sold we booked his 10th Birthday at battle field. We had a AMAZING experience, I've never played a video game in my life and Craig was so awesome he let the adults jump in and experience the fun, he gave my 4 year old daughter and my nieces their own mini gun so they didn't feel left out. Craig really cares about the kids and his guests. We are definitely booking a adult party soon. EVERYONE HAD A BLAST. THANK YOU CRAIG FOR MAKING MY SONS 10TH BIRTHDAY A UNFORGETTABLE BIRTHDAY.

We reserved a group party session from 9am-11am and my 2 boys & 9 of their friends had such a good time playing the outdoor laser tag for the 1st time. The battlefield is outdoor, big and well set-up with inflatable obstacle barriers to hide behind. The players wear a headband rather than a vest and this was a better option especially for smaller kids. The 2 adults that played had fun as well. Music is played continuously and the owner Craig occasionally announced the 2 teams scores as the games were being played. There was several picnic tables in a covered (but still outdoor) area where Craig had reserved 4 tables for us. That was more than enough. Both he and his wife were great to work with & made sure everyone had a good time. There are also local pizza places that will deliver to the location so we had Round Table deliver pizza for lunch. I can't say enough good things about the place & owners!!! My son's birthday party was epic because we had it there. Every kid, including the only girl, who was 10, that attended the party said they wanted their birthday parties there. We plan to have my other son's 7th birthday party there this month.

I've had quite a few steaks throughout the years but this was one of the best one I've had! My Compliments to the Chef! I would highly Recommend this place for your venue.

Although closed on Mondays, The Mercy Meal took place here in their primary event room. It was made available to use as a private use event with a full buffet. Access to alcoholic beverages were available in the adjourning room with a bar. Once you've gone down an extensive driveway, a large parking lot awaits you. The entrance isn't too far from the lot, making it an easy venue for everyone, especially elderly individuals. The ball room was very clean and there was plenty of seating on large round tables. Every seat had a large glass water cup ready for us; I found that to be a great touch considering we were out in the heat for a few hours. The service was good; there were a few individuals wandering around ensuring everyone had what they needed and the buffet full of food. The scenery and outdoors are gorgeous. As expected, the grass was well trimmed. Lots of places to go for a walk or have a seat. I would highly recommend The Club At Crazy Horse Ranch for anybody that needs a venue for an occasion. In our case it was after a funeral, but this place would be good for a baptism, graduation, wedding or any other event where large groups of people collect.

If you are considering Holly Farm as the venue for your wedding, and you just want the tl;dr, then…read morehere are my three most important suggestions for you: 1) You should absolutely go with Holly Farm. 2) You should accept every piece of advice Erin, Ryan, and the rest of the incredible team have for you along the way. 3) You should start getting excited right now about La Creme because their food is out of this world. Picking Holly Farm as our venue was the first choice we made in our wedding planning process, and trust me when I say that it was by far the best one. The pictures speak for themselves, and yes, it's as amazing as it looks (though if you haven't visited, you should take the excuse - it's truly stunning in person), but the real game changer is the team. The Holly Farm fam has been at this for decades, and it SHOWS. They cater to your needs and your vision, whether you want to be super hands on and into the nitty gritty on everything, or whether you want somebody to completely take the reins for you. We were so so appreciative for Erin's help during the planning process; any time we were stuck on something, she had a recommendation ready that was never just "off the shelf". We didn't want to be totally consumed by wedding planning all the time, and even though Erin had a big list of vendors ready to go, we were more than happy to listen every time she said "here's the 2 who I think you guys would love". It's really really telling to me that every single vendor we spoke to - without exception, including the ones we didn't end up choosing - all said some version of the same thing: "oh man I LOVE doing weddings at Holly Farm". Here's what I'll say about the weekend itself - it truly feels like you are staying at a luxury resort where you and your friends are the only guests. The entire staff is so attentive, so friendly, and they take care of all the details and logistics so that your only job really is to just enjoy the weekend and stay relaxed. We cooked a huge friends and family dinner in the Adobe and they cleaned the entire kitchen for us! Anytime we were hanging out in the evenings they rolled the portable heaters up without us asking! They moved our rental equipment around to make cool outdoor spaces for us so that we could get more use out of it than just the wedding itself! And nothing felt so satisfying as passing by Ryan on a path and hearing "hey I just lit your fireplace for you!". Of everything we loved about our wedding, the thing we loved most was getting to have this full weekend experience with our closest friends and family in one place, made truly special by the care the entire Holly Farm team put into making us feel at ease and at home. And one final thing - lest I leave you with the impression that this is only about good vibes - the operations for the wedding itself were incredible. Every vendor knows the team and knows the venue, everything works like clockwork without you having to supervise anything, and Erin, Ryan, and their staff have things so tightly coordinated that we didn't have to stress about logistics at all once the weekend got started. I can't emphasize enough how big a difference that made to us compared to some horror stories we'd heard from other weddings. Here are some final quick hits on other things you might be wondering about - but seriously, pick Holly Farm: - I didn't write an entire review for Tamie and La Creme, because it would be just as long, but they do amazing work. This is straight up excellent food, not excellent "wedding" food. - The rooms and buildings are very cool and very comfortable. - Yes, the Paraiso suite is "open air". Yes, it really does stay warm. Having a roaring fire in there, plus a heated blanket on the bed....A+. - The optional River House for extra space is definitely walkable (~3 mins), but it's nice to have flashlights at night. - Having the flexibility to use the space however you want for the entire weekend is a highly highly underrated perk. We had people hanging out on Thursday and Friday and it was a ton of fun. Highly recommend making plans that utilize the space every day. - We were nervous about the higher cost at first, but asking friends and family who stayed on site to pay for rooms turned out to not be a very big deal, and what we charged them was still way less than area hotels. - The music has to switch from DJ's speakers to house speakers at 9:30pm, but the house speakers can stay on all night if you want. We had just as much fun after the switchover. - No curfew is also a huge perk not to overlook. Erin and Ryan if you're reading this THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN YOU GUYS ARE ROCK STARS!!

As my husband and I drive up the central coast to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary, we…read morethought this was the perfect time to share a little bit about our insanely incredible experience getting married at Holly Farm. Our wedding was an absolute dream come true. The love we had for each other and for our family and friends that traveled from across the country to celebrate with us was reflected in the beauty and spirit of Holly Farm and all of the wonderful folks that work there. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the warmth and charm of the space. It was as if every inch of the venue was designed to make us and our guests feel at home, while still capturing an elevated, magical atmosphere that was simply unforgettable. Everyone at Holly Farm went above and beyond to ensure each detail of our wedding weekend was flawless. Their attention to detail was extraordinary, and it was clear they genuinely cared about making our day perfect. Ryan and Erin were so caring and attentive, and they made us feel like family. They were there for every little detail and made us feel completely at ease. The food, catered by La Creme, was nothing short of five star restaurant quality. We've received countless compliments from our guests about how delicious everything was! This was a big deal, especially coming from our families who are used to extravagant New Jersey weddings with an abundance of food. They all told us it was the best wedding food they'd ever had, which is about the highest praise you can get from a family who knows food! Everything about The Holly Farm was perfect--from the gorgeous, tropical setting that felt like a hidden paradise against the coastal backdrop of Carmel to the impeccable service and food. We couldn't have imagined a more beautiful, heartfelt, and memorable experience, and our friends and family STILL haven't stopped raving about it! Our wedding weekend was made even more special thanks to the onsite haciendas where we, along with some of our close friends, stayed. The houses were cozy yet luxurious, and perfectly appointed with a level of service that truly felt five-star. Each detail was perfect, from the unbelievably comfortable beds to the wood burning fires that were lit by hand each night and the wonderful house staff that made everyone feel at home the moment they arrived. Getting to spend the whole weekend in such an enchanting space made the whole wedding feel so much more special, a truly immersive experience vs a single-day event. We loved discovering the countless nooks and crannies throughout the property where our friends and family could relax, chat, and soak in the surroundings. It created a sense of intimacy and closeness that made the entire experience feel so special. When the weekend was over, we genuinely didn't want to leave. Heck, we may even crash the wedding that's probably getting ready to kick off this weekend! The Holly Farm made every moment magical, and we will forever cherish our time spent there with the people we love most.
