Meet, eat and stay at two private estates near Carlsbad, with presentation space and a private chef on site.
Both estates are set up for working sessions as well as downtime.
A long dining table seats 16 and doubles as a boardroom, with a 100-inch drop-down projector screen.
The Tennis House great room seats about 30, with an 80-inch TV and surround sound for presentations.
Mobile whiteboards and built-in projectors in both estates. Extra folding chairs on request.
After sessions, teams move to the patios: seating for 30 or more under Moroccan lanterns, a propane fire table and views over Sage Hill Preserve.
There’s a tennis and pickleball court, horseback horseback rides and trails right outside the gate, so nobody has to organize the fun.
Send Bob your dates, headcount and agenda needs, and he’ll put together a proposal with lodging, catering and any extras in one total.

Our rates cover the estates. Chef and housekeeping are available as add-ons — we arrange everything, and you only pay for the nights you want them.
Per night. Taxes and cleaning fee additional. Bookings are non-refundable. Full terms are in the rental agreement.
We keep the chef separate on purpose, so you aren't paying for a chef on the nights you'd rather go out to dinner in Carlsbad or Encinitas.

Estimate only. Taxes, cleaning fee and the cost of groceries are additional.
Call Bob for an exact quoteA private estate gives your team space to think, meet and actually talk to each other.
Conference hotels look the same everywhere. Here your team takes over a gated ranch: working sessions in the great room, breakouts on the terrace, dinner together around one long table.
Book one estate for a leadership group or both for a larger team.
Bob coordinates chef-cooked meals, a stocked kitchen, housekeeping and on-site activities, and sends one quote, so your planner is not juggling five vendors.
The ranch is under an hour from San Diego International Airport, and closer to McClellan-Palomar Airport in Carlsbad.
Pickleball and tennis tournaments, horseback rides, orchard walks and a fire table after dinner do more for a team than trust falls.
Leave free time in the agenda. Some of the best conversations happen by the pool.
Text Bob your dates, headcount and the kind of meeting space you need. He will tell you which estate setup fits and what to add.
Ask early about weekday rates for midweek retreats.
