From the reviews
Ventura Grand Chateau cared for my mom from October 2021 through July 2025, and I could not have asked for a more supportive and compassionate community. Over those years, the staff consistently showed incredible kindness, patience, and professionalism.
My late aunt moved into VGC when she was diagnosed as being terminally ill. I was very worried about her, especially so as I live in England and was sadly unable to be with her in her final days.
We felt very fortunate to have found your Wonderful place at a time when we were very unsure we were doing the right thing for our Mom. It was very comforting to be able to create a room for her with the her personal things so she would feel as if she were home.
My father was here for about a month and a half during Covid-19 on hospice. The entire staff was amazing. They went above and beyond to assist my sister and I and to ensure my father was comfortable during the last month if his life. I am eternally grateful to them.
Getting married at Ventura Grand Chateau
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Ventura Grand Chateau doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
