They had over 4 picnic benches for families to picnic on, a small swing nearby, and a portable toilet near the main parking lot. Other parking lots were available if the main lot was full. They give you the saw upon check-in and you drop it off along with $80 for any tree size on your way out. My son enjoyed the candy cane he was given upon exit. I would go here again with my family. Advice: we went here upon opening Saturday morning after Thanksgiving. By 10:30am, the main parking lot was full and overflowing into other lots, but other lots had plenty of space. I recommend getting here early and having a picnic with your family.

Once you enter you grab a saw and then can wonder around anywhere on the property. They have a variety of different trees and all are so lush and green. ANY tree is $80! So such a steal if you can fit a big one in your house. So I would say a great value! When you leave you can drop the cash in the slot or use a pay app. Either way super quick! Can't wait to decorate our tree! There is always hot apple cider and it's pet friendly property. Just please clean up after you furry friend!

It was such a nice experience going up there and getting advice (and a saw) from Donna. The roads are a bit slow steep and the passing lane is a bit tight. Still, it was worth it. The dirt and gravel road in the farm the was a little too slick due to the thick fog after our recent rain. So I had to engage the 4X4 option in the truck, then it wasn't a problem. The fog made it all the more enchanting and magnificent. As I was checking out I treated myself to some fresh honey Donna was selling for her neighbor. I love that neighborliness. Warmed my heart.

The people at McKenzie Ranch treated us like family, directing us where we can park and how the whole process of cutting a tree works. Once we cut our own tree we brought it back down where we paid an extra $10 to have them shake it down and tie it up for us on our car. Trees cost around $60 but it is honestly a priceless experience, and it will last from thanksgiving until New Years if you water the tree consistently. One big thing is that when you come up here be sure to wear cloths u don't mind getting dirty/wet since it's usually pretty muddy around. I recommend some old jeans and hiking boots for some grip. Overall McKenzie Ranch gave me and my family not just the perfect Christmas tree but the best experience in cutting one down, be sure to swing on by for your own tree for the holiday season!

Matthew is introduced as the only McKinzie in our bunch and the McKenzie tree farm will rack up a few candy canes for our little Matthew. They have a phenomenal selection of Christmas trees.

Was so excited to cut my own tree down this past Christmas! I researched a bunch of different tree…read morefarms in the Santa Cruz Mountains and it seemed that they all had a similar price range within $5-$10 of each other. I opted for Summit since I knew exactly where it was and that they'd have a pretty large selection. It was a set price of $80 per tree (2025), no matter if you got a 4 ft tree or 12 ft tree. They had a ton of trees to choose from, we parked shortly after the road turned and when we were leaving we realized just how how expansive the property was and how much more there was to explore. Just in the area we were in you could find trees of all sizes, small, tall, plump, and on the thinner side (this was the hardest to find). There's a small snack shack here but you can also bring your own food and tailgate before or after the hunt. We spent about 20 minutes saying this is the tree while then finding another one a few minutes later. They provided a saw and we brought our own measuring tape to make sure it would fit in our designated space. Once you get your tree you drive back to the front to pay, we ended up putting the tree inside my car, so I'm not sure if they'll help you secure it to the roof before you go, but you are responsible for doing it yourself as you make your journey back to the front. They sold stands at the front, I believe they were $20. When I got a real tree growing up, it was always from a lot so they would secure the stand and put the tree through a shaker for you. That wasn't the case here, so we did find a lot of small spiders after getting it home, and we also had our tree fall over after decorating it because we didn't get the straightest cut on the bottom and the trunk was a little oddly shaped for the stand.
