What a beautiful winery we have that's not too far out of town. Located in Escondido and not too…read morefar off the freeway. I was here to do a race that came with a wine tasting event after. They have a huge tasting room where we got our wine and I tried a few of their reds and I especially loved the syrah and merlot. I'm not a huge fan of rosé but the friends who love rosé said that theirs were pretty good too.

This place is really pretty…read more What I don't like about this place is its very odd set up. There's only one bartender and she is very sassy. You can tell she does not like her job . She is very awkward and not welcoming at all.. I don't think it's her fault the way they set it up that you have to stand in line to get served. So I can't hold that against her, But waiting 20 minutes to get wine standing up in line is really annoying. I came here with my daughter who turned 21 yesterday. This is the first time she was ever going to a winery . When the sassy bartender told us, I'm the only one there's a 20 minute wait very rudely. We were so turned off we left. I don't understand why you can't wait at the bar for your turn why do you have to wait in a line until she's ready to take customers ?? Just the whole experience was really a turn off maybe if she was nicer. It wouldn't have been so frustrating. I don't know. We didn't stay there very long. We left to another winery so I don't know how the wine tastes or the food.

I can tell they actually care about each wedding and want it to be exceptional. The venue itself is beautiful. I love that it's a historic home with a gorgeous garden. It feels very warm and welcoming. I also like that it has built in market lighting, and includes many rentals.

This is a great family-friendly winery and also a great spot for groups without kids!…read more The enormous estate grounds and surrounding views were beautiful. We visited midday on a Saturday and there were lots of people there, but it didn't feel crowded. There were many spaces to gather: the patio by the wine bar, a grassy area next to the bar, an air-conditioned room with a couple seating areas, and a massive front lawn with picnic tables and bounce houses. The setting was enhanced by the music from the guitarist. These grounds deserves 5+ stars! The kids in our group (ages 8-13) had fun going on the hayrides, exploring the estate, and playing on the bounce houses. Glad to see that one of the bounce houses was only for kids ages 4 and under. They also offer craft activities on Sundays. We adults enjoyed the music, ambience, and wine tasting, especially since the kids were occupied with activities. The winery served several types of wine and sangria. The adults in our group rated the wines 3 stars- not amazing but not bad either. They served burgers, sliders, hot dogs, bratwurst, and nachos with ground beef, all sourced from cattle raised on their ranch. The kids and adults gave the food 4 stars. Overall, Rancho Guejito Vineyards is a fantastic place to visit! We will definitely be coming back and we'll be bringing more family friends with us.

We stayed at Bandy Canyon Ranch back in October to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. I sat…read moreon this review for far too long because it honestly just made me so incredibly angry and I didn't want to relive the experience. I've also seen how the manager responds to other negative reviews and didn't feel like dealing with the attacks. I had been following Bandy Canyon on Instagram and the experience they promote online nowhere meets the reality. We chose to stay at the Eagle cabin because it had more space for our 2 kids and dog and the other rooms available were much smaller in comparison. The cabin didn't look upgraded online but for $910 for 2 nights, I assumed it had to be nicer than the photos looked. It was actually much, much worse. The website touts upgraded and renovated rooms but the Eagle cabin had clearly not been updated maybe since it had been built. I cannot begin to explain how depressing the cabin felt walking in at night. Floor to ceiling brown shiny walls illuminated by harsh white lightbulbs, no art or decor on the walls, tacky fake plant from the 90s covered in dust, yellow stained and ripped curtains. The floor was ripped and worn. It felt like a prison. The TV was missing the remote so we couldn't even turn on the TV for some added ambiance. It was dead silent. We spent hours turning the place upside down trying to find a remote, my husband was hyperventilating from how suffocating and tacky the room felt with no escape. We almost left as soon as we arrived. I called the front desk over the course of several hours. The front desk couldn't get us a remote that worked and tried calling her manager but couldn't figure out what to do. We hadn't eaten dinner so my husband reluctantly grilled us some food on the sad bbq outside our room in almost complete darkness. It was intended to be a special celebration of our 10-year wedding anniversary and it ended up being a weekend from hell. Did I mention they prohibit you from bringing your own wine? Because they sell wine on site as part of their "winery." However I was told they only had rose when I asked for a red. What is this, a college dorm? I'm going to get in trouble for bringing my own wine to celebrate my 10 year wedding anniversary? Didn't find this out until we were packing our bags for the trip and my husband was looking at their website. I somehow managed to convince my husband to stay the night versus driving home immediately. I really wanted to salvage our milestone anniversary trip! I tried using the shower and the pipes screeched loudly, sounding like someone was screaming in your ear the whole time. I sent video to the front desk. The noise was so unbearable that we couldn't even use the shower. The sound echoed through the entire house, making it impossible to ignore. These elements greatly diminished the comfort and ambiance we had anticipated. Furthermore, a major reason for choosing the ranch was the promise of a pool for our toddler to enjoy, especially as it's promoted across the ranch's Instagram. To our dismay, the pool was not heated and was too cold to use, which was very disappointing. Adding to this inconvenience, the pool bar was closed, further limiting our recreational options.    All the ranch workers we interacted with were supportive and apologetic, agreeing that the Eagle cabin was outdated and unfit for guests. They acknowledged that it should not have been rented out in its current condition. They promised us the manager would make it right. I was told she's get in touch with me after the weekend. It took me messaging them for about a solid month for the manager to finally call me, which by that point I had zero interest in talking to her. We paid good money to stay here and it was a complete waste. For 2 nights we spent almost 1k ($910 to be exact). You'd think for that kind of money we'd get a much nicer experience!

I stayed in the cozy Sparrow cottage, which was well-decorated and had a fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and dishes for two. I loved the rocking chair on the patio for coffee and reading. The pool is cute and relaxing, though unheated, but the hot tub is warm. There's a serene stream with frogs croaking at night, and the property is secluded, with a few nearby wineries to explore. This retreat is ideal for couples or a small group of friends. Cons: The hot water is only lukewarm. The bed had some dirt/sand. My TV didn't work, and the bonfire is only available until 4 pm. The animal sanctuary ($7) requires a reservation, but the front desk told me to just show up. When I did, the staff said same-day reservations weren't allowed--and she was a bit cranky--so I couldn't visit. However, it's small enough to view from outside the fence. TL;DR: This ranch is feels safe, peaceful and promising. Once the restaurant opens and cleaning standards improve, it will be a perfect nature escape.

Where do I start?…read more... Let me address the haters first.... Whether it's the range, the maintenance, the people... you all should just be happy you can come out here and golf. Unless you're part of the actual club here, what are you expecting? Just because it's golf doesn't mean it's going to be fancy or luxurious. Which by the way at this place is actually really nice!!! Just goes to show that you guys don't go south past the 94 or maybe even the 52. As for the price, do some research. Every golf course has peaks, lows and twilights and most give discounts, that how I come here. Military friendly courses are always a plus man! So many fancy bougey ass courses refuse military discounts and that's okay, that's their business motto. If you're looking for exclusivity, join a club, then come and complain, but I bet you won't because they'll figure out who it was. Now the field: The range is great!!! Trackman on most bays??!! What???!!! This is a game changer for anyone who uses them. Or come to play the trackman games with friends, just make sure you keep it down a bit. The practice areas are immaculate! Big enough for various players of all levels skills. The course, Pffft! This place is GREAT!!! If you're complaining about certain areas, it's because you hit your all there and couldn't get it out and mainly because you just suck. I suck, so I can say that. You're not a Pro Bro! Just pick it up like the rest of people and keep it moving. I've seen many reviews here who talk about the pace of play. Okay so the pace of play is really up to the people playing. If you want to complain, complain to them. All these people hitting 4X mulligans and breakfast balls and looking for their Pro V1's are the real criminals here. So basically, it's all of you!!! This place is great! The location is great! It's overall great! If you're miserable it's because you choose to be miserable.

We worked closely with Nicole Park throughout the entire planning process and cannot thank her enough. Her flexibility with communication, accommodations, and attention to detail made everything feel seamless. She genuinely cared about making sure everything was perfect for our actual wedding day, and it showed in every way. Nicole and the entire Rancho Guejito team are exceptional at what they do. Everyone is incredibly friendly, professional, and solution-oriented, with an impressive network of resources and vendor connections. From start to finish, it truly felt like the team had our backs on all fronts. Their level of care, organization, and professionalism made the planning process feel far less stressful. The property itself is absolutely stunning -- vast greenery, rolling vineyards, citrus trees, and the most incredible natural scenery. It even smells amazing on site! We were lucky enough to be one of the first couples to host our wedding at the new venue location after originally booking the former space, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. The new venue is breathtaking and perfectly complemented our moody, romantic wedding vision. The new getting-ready suites are beautiful and thoughtfully designed, and having the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces so close together was a huge plus for our guests. Even months later, our guests still talk about how magical the Rancho Guejito property is. Between the lush landscape, expansive views, and countless photo locations across the property, it truly feels like an exclusive and intimate experience for you and your partner. My husband and I couldn't be happier with how our wedding day turned out at Rancho Guejito and highly recommend them for your wedding or any special event.

A limited menu and cash bar was available. The food provided by Vintana was excellent, the beverage line much too long. As someone who has planned events in every career role I have had, I feel the space could have been better arranged. The Centre has various venue choices of different sizes. They are used for weddings, reunions and celebrations of all types. They may not need to be booked but it would be great to see more non- profit, charitable and flex functions here in the future.

They also offer tasting menus, so you get healthy pours of different wines to try. They also offer some premade food for sale, charcuteries, hummus, crackers, cheeses. Plus there's a food truck that sells amazing burgers starting at 3. While we were there, there was live music being played in the Central courtyard. Guests could sit on their provided seating under a large shaded tree and some had their small dogs with them on leash. Because we were a medium size group and had made a reservation, we were placed in a separate room with plenty of inside and outside covered seating. The winemaker even gave us a tour of the facilities. Showing is the process from the grapes, to the hopper and ending with the barrels where they age. It's definitely worth driving out to visit this beautiful winery in Escondido.

Finally, I called her to work things out, and she couldn't have been more aloof and frankly, a jerk. So, despite my interest in the property, I feel like I dodged a bullet by not being able to work things out.
