Guardian Ranch

Guardian Ranch is a 40-acre property overlooking Lake Wohlford that hosts weddings, corporate retreats, family reunions and other special events for up to 200 guests. It also rents out four lodging houses on the grounds: Casa Grande, Peacock House, Top House and Lakeview House.

Each house has its own set of indoor games, and guests can hike the trails or play pickleball on site. Chef-prepared meals are available through experience packages, and there is a fire pit for evenings under the stars. Wedding pricing is sent through an inquiry form, and special event requests are handled the same way. The ranch sits at 26088 Bear Valley Heights Road in Escondido.
