  • We’re happy to allow freestanding tents in the backyard for events or gatherings, as long as they are secured using weighted anchors rather than stakes. Our property has an underground irrigation system, and driving stakes into the ground can cause costly damage to those lines. For that reason, we do not allow anything to be staked into the ground. Weighted tents work great, are safe for the property, and are fully welcome as long as they are set up and fully removed prior to departure.

    Check out the Event Rentals section below for all your event planning needs.
