Dallidet Adobe and Gardens

I threw my parents an anniversary party for about 50 guests at the Dallidet Adobe Gardens in August, and everything about the venue was absolutely wonderful!
Karen, the event manager, was great to work with. She was prompt in her email responses to my questions, and available and helpful the day-​of.
The garden itself is really charming, private, and well-​maintained. There are several areas in which to set up a party; we chose to set up our tables on the Avocado Patio, which was shady and very pleasant. Our guests loved it!
The only challenging thing about this venue was the relatively short time available to us. We ended up having 30 minutes of set up time, and 30 minutes to clean up, with a 2.5 hour party. It was tight, but do-​able with a good organizational plan and a team to help.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Dallidet for a garden party, baby/​bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, etc. A lovely venue!

Dallidet Adobe is at the top of my list for wedding venues. It is small, intimate and beautiful year round. The lighting is spectacular throughout the day. It is close to the hotels and downtown Slo which makes it easy for your out of town guest. I highly recommend this venue for weddings and events.

It was not easy to find the first time, but once you’re «in the know,» it’s a wonderful place to visit with a small child, because the layout makes a fairly easy walk, the garden is completely fenced, and there are interesting things to see all over, including lovely tall redwoods, the rustic trellis elevated on a small stage, an arch covered with flowers, a small old-​fashioned streetcar, etc. A bonus is it has clean and well-​kept bathrooms. The volunteers have been very friendly. It’s a place I wish were open more often!

I came across this very historic attraction while walking around down town slo and it was a very pleasant detour and all the volunteers were well informed about the place

historic, free, open only on certain days. this place is pretty small and worth a 10 minute walk around.
to be honest though it’s a one view wonder.
it’s open like a weekend a month, so take the time to visit it at least once!

The Dallidet Adobe is a beautiful acre of gardens in downtown SLO. It is only open every other sunday, but they are going to be doing a bunch of events this year, so check it out! It is a wedding venue too, and would be a spectacular spot to have a wedding at!
