RETREATS

Located just 20 miles east of downtown San Francisco, our affiliate, Deer Hill Ranch, sits in a secluded valley surrounded by thousands of acres of open grassland. This quiet natural environment is ideal for business groups who want to get away from the stresses and distractions of the typical office environment. While the Ranch feels remote, it is actually just minutes from a four-star hotel, excellent restaurants and other urban amenities.

MEETINGS

Nestled into one of the corners of the valley adjacent to a large lawn is a barn that has been converted into a modern meeting facility. The main conference room is decorated in a western theme with comfortable chairs, sofas and a meeting table. This room can comfortably accommodate 20 guests sitting on sofas and chairs, 15 at the conference table, and up to 30 if the furniture is removed. It is ideally suited for retreats where guests can make use of the adjoining deck and lawn, as well as the separate rustic break-out room. The meeting facility is equipped with a VCR/TV, overhead and slide projectors, and a stereo sound system. Catering is available for anything from coffee to a full western barbecue. A refrigerator, microwave and grill are also available for our guests. The facility has two bathrooms.

Our staff will make all the arrangements you need, and will be on call during your meeting as needs arise. In addition, our facilitation staff can be hired on an hourly basis to provide team activities to re-energize meeting attendees.

SOCIAL GATHERINGS

Getting away from the office environment for social activities is something most clients, managers and employees appreciate. Unfortunately, the time and expense usually involved severely limits such occasions. Deer Hill Corporate provides a location for these activities that is more convenient and affordable than most. At Deer Hill Ranch the lawn, deck and indoor space at our meeting facility provide an ideal location for summer barbecues and picnics. The secluded ranch environment makes everyone feel like they're away in the country. Our excellent catering service provides the accoutrements of a five-star restaurant, and our central bay-area location provides easy access for local commuters as well as those staying in local hotels.

The ranch environment provides for a variety of fun and interesting activities you can provide to your guests, such as hikes in the grassland hills, tours of the ranch, and a variety of games and activities derived from our team building curriculum.
