A Grand Fourth of July Weekend Celebration

Celebrate red, white, and blue against a backdrop of awe-inspiring canyon views. Relax with family and loved ones under the San Diego sunshine and celebrate the Fourth of July weekend with live music and poolside fun. Spend the long weekend immersed in the great outdoors in classic cowboy style horseback riding along our scenic trails, or hit our 18-hole golf course, professional-style tennis courts, archery range, and much more.

Kids of all ages will find endless entertainment throughout the week, from bracelet making to a pirate show and swimming with mermaids. Teens can also embark on virtual reality adventures for an adrenaline rush like no other.  The Grand Social concert series continues with the melodies of the Ellis Bryan on Thursday the 4th, Jesse Ray Smith on Friday, and Whitney Shay on Saturday serenade you into the holiday spirit.

A grand eco-friendly drone display over the 18th hole of the golf course (with a perfect view from Grand Social) add an extra celebration to the magic-filled weekend on July 5. The Grand Fourth of July weekend will be filled with fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories.
