Yokayo Ranch

Yokayo Ranch is a private event venue in Ukiah, in California's Mendocino County, set among rolling hills, oak trees and redwoods. Its restored ranch buildings, open lawns, pool and peaceful surroundings provide a distinctive setting for weddings, business gatherings, retreats and private celebrations.

The property brings several spaces together, including a Great Room for meetings, conferences and group sessions, outdoor areas for ceremonies and receptions, covered porches, a swimming pool and an outdoor bar. Couples can arrange exclusive use of the ranch for their wedding, with options for a rehearsal dinner, a post-event brunch or a pool gathering. The venue also offers a micro-wedding package for smaller groups.

Planning support is available through the ranch's event team. Wedding packages include coordination before and on the day, help with event schedules and layouts, a rehearsal, vendor guidance and assistance with setting up tables and chairs. Organisers can choose their own caterer, subject to a discussion about event logistics, or consider recommended suppliers. Equipment and practical amenities listed for weddings include a PA system, microphone, lighting, dance floor, bars, benches, a restroom trailer and help with parking.

For groups staying overnight, the ranch has accommodation across four buildings, with eight bedrooms and capacity for up to 29 guests when some share rooms. Lodging is arranged separately from the event fee. Organisers can also enquire about additional event requirements and rentals, including farm tables and chairs. With indoor and outdoor settings, on-site accommodation and coordination assistance, Yokayo Ranch can host gatherings that span a single event or a longer stay.
