Camp Arroyo Grande

Camp Arroyo Grande is a historic venue and retreat centre in Arroyo Grande, California, where event planners can bring guests together in a secluded, wooded setting close to the town centre. The property offers indoor and outdoor spaces for weddings, receptions, dinners, dances, fundraisers, family reunions, company gatherings and group retreats.

At the heart of the site is the Tabernacle, a restored 12-sided building dating from 1897. It can host seated dinners and celebrations for around 200 guests, with a stated maximum capacity of 250. Couples can also choose from outdoor ceremony locations, making it possible to hold a ceremony and reception at the same venue. For smaller gatherings, the dining hall is available for meetings, and a commercial kitchen can be rented to support event catering. Organisers may bring their own caterer.

The grounds include open-air gathering areas, amphitheatres, trails and a seasonal swimming pool. Groups can extend their event into an overnight stay, with cabins and lodges offering a range of sleeping arrangements, from simple cabin accommodation to larger lodges with bathrooms and, in some cases, kitchens or a shared living area. Tent camping and limited RV spaces are also available. On-site parking is provided, with additional parking nearby.

With its combination of historic character, flexible event spaces and on-site accommodation, Camp Arroyo Grande suits planners looking to host a single-day celebration or a longer retreat where guests can stay together. The venue can provide information and arrange a tour for organisers considering the property for their event.
