Who We Are

Your Wedding Experts

The Bodega Bay Secret Gardens blends modern elegance with a rich local history. Once known as Compass Rose Garden, the venue was founded over 50 years ago by Donna Cook Freeman, a beloved community figure who transformed the land into a gathering place for celebrations of every kind. We proudly continue that tradition today, offering a beautiful, fully equipped wedding & events venue designed to bring your vision to life, whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony or a lively reception.
