Private Events · Celebration of Life
A Celebration of Life in a Place of Peace
Nestled in Northern California's wine country, Highlands offers a quiet, private place to gather and honor someone you love.
A Place of Comfort and Reflection
Rolling hills, old-growth oaks, and 21 private acres offer a tranquil retreat, where the sounds of nature make space for reflection.
Indoor and Outdoor Settings
Gather outdoors with the valley around you, or inside in any weather.
The Arbor
Shaded and vineyard-facing, with built-in microphones and discreet sound so every word is heard.
The Oak Tree
Beneath an ancient oak among the Syrah vines, with open views across the property.
The Four Seasons Barn
Climate-controlled and warmly lit, with an acoustically tuned sound system for sharing stories and music.
Complete Privacy
The property is fully gated and set 1,000 feet from any public road, so you and your guests can gather without interruption.
We're Here to Help
We understand how much goes into planning a celebration of life. We'll help with recommendations for catering, florals, and AV, so you can focus on what matters.
Sound, Already in Place
Professionally installed sound systems outdoors and in the barn mean there's nothing to bring. The system is operated by a qualified vendor such as your DJ or AV provider, or by our team for $500. Outside speakers and amplifiers aren't used on the property.
