Our Story
Nestldown is a 180-acre property that was bought in 1992, originally designed and developed for the owners, Mark & Barbara Beck, and their children: Diana, Alexandra, and Derek. Their goal was to offer a special space for the non-profits benefitting disadvantaged individuals or those in crisis and transition.
Once a working fruit ranch at the turn of the century, the property was also the location for the Summit area grade school. It then made it’s transition to a wedding venue in the past decade preceding 2018. It is an especially beautiful escape from the everyday world.
Nestldown has over 30 acres of landscaped lawns, gardens, redwood groves, working orchards producing peaches, apples, kiwis and other fruits. The grounds also offer a full indoor and outdoor locations, all used for events. Children will delight in the Fantasy Garden and Cottage, a furnished children's playhouse that is guarded by topiary sculptures and carrousel animals, and adults will become children once again as their ride the mini train.
It now specializes in one wedding a day, Thursday through Sunday, from March through December while still pursuing it’s original value in providing a special place for non-profit events!
