§ 01 — From the editors

A golf-course pavilion that does winter well

Cypress Ridge Pavilion sits on the Peter Jacobsen-designed course in Arroyo Grande, above a chain of lakes ringed with cypress. Ceremonies happen at the garden arch facing the water, and in warm months the reception spills onto the patio and lawn under bistro lights with a fire pit going.

The Main Dining Hall is what makes it work year round: cathedral wood beams, tall windows and a real fireplace for 120 seated. The package is refreshingly practical: tables and chairs for 250, the dance floor, a rehearsal hour, setup and cleanup and free parking are all included, which keeps the rental list short.
