Switzer Farm is one of the most stunning wedding venues I have ever been to! As a wedding photographer, this location provided everything in terms of backdrops for photos. The views are gorgeous, both the exterior and interior areas are lovely, with multiple areas that can be utilized for events. I highly recommend this location if you are searching for a wedding venue!

This is a wonderful spot for a small wedding. It's truly one of the most beautifully restored homes I've ever visited, and Gary's love of the property shows through. He has meticulously restored the place -- the furniture and light fixtures are truly wonderful. The grounds are beautiful -- Gary and his team have lovingly landscaped everything on the grounds; there's brand-new NFL-grade-grass for the reception area, and I can't think of a better spot to get married than on the grassy area overlooking the ocean. Gary is so quick to answer questions -- incredibly responsive and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed working with him.
If you are looking for a small gathering at a spectacularly beautiful venue, then you can't find a better spot!

As a photographer I have shot at Switzer Farm a couple times and each one blows me away even more. Not only is the owner Gary so sweet, but the venue itself is near cliffs, trees and the ocean. This is a photographer's dream and is my mom's hometown so it means so much to me to shoot here. Cannot wait to shoot another wedding here next year!!! This is the destination spot to choose!

I had the unfathomable good fortune to spend a weekend with friends at Switzer Farm, and it is hard to describe the beauty and majesty of the restored Victorian farmhouse itself, the Mendocino coastline, and the pleasure of the experience (unfathomable!). The tremendous good taste and appreciation for history itself and The Eclectic characterizes the aesthetic of the owners, Gary Weiss and Michiko Tamate. They are the kindest, most generous and helpful hosts, and the experience of staying in their home is like none other. We enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen (clearly the owners are foodies of the First Order), getting lost in the old library full of rich obscure texts about farming, whaling, forestry lore of the North Highway, and doing jigsaw puzzles on the large dining room table. And that's just some of the fun to be had INSIDE Switzer Farm!
One can quickly see that it is an ideal location for a wedding especially in the fall or spring but even in the dead of winter (when I was there). The ocean itself, the meadows, the gardens across 22 acres are perfect for roaming, meandering and sloshing around (fi you are lucky enough to get there in the rain). Considering the house can accommodate so many guests (not to mention the sweet little romantic cottage across the lawn), it is a real bargain. Just go look at the web site for inspiration. Can't say enough good things about Switzer Farm. Even more beautiful than the spectacular photos!

It hard to put in words how amazing Switzer Farm truly is! We got married here a month ago and it was such a magical experience. We met with Gary (owner) about 18 months before we tied the knot and he could not have a better host along the way! He was tremendously helpful in every way, checking in with us throughout the process, sharing updates, running ideas by us, and really making sure our time at Switzer Farm was unforgettable. Sure enough, it was!!! The house, the deck, the views are one of a kind and I cannot thank Gary and Switzer Farm for letting us share our wedding with all our friends and family there. Thank you, and I can't wait to come back in years to come!
