Ranch holiday rentals in Southern California

Definitely a pioneertown gem. Have stayed here a handful of times and can always count on an easy check in/out, thoughtful and communicative host and great location. They go above and beyond with the added touches and I always look forward to the complimentary snacks and fireball. Looking forward to next time!

Such a cute and special space in a gorgeous location! We felt right at home and absolutely loved our stay at Guy and Nancy's! Peaceful, comfortable, convenient, and private. Great AC on a hot day and cozy at night. The hosts are long-time locals and are friendly, welcoming, and communicative. They met us at check in and even gave us a fun little gift :) Couldn't ask for a more perfect location - quiet at night, Red Dog is right nearby, and it's an easy stroll to Pappy and Harriets. We were in Pioneertown for a concert but would love to stay again in the future to hang out more around the community and for star gazing on their incredible porch!

Beautiful and quirky place -- exactly as described. Wonderful experience.

a beautiful, peaceful retreat. so comfortable and clean. everything we needed. x

The house was spacious and comfortable, and allowed us to relax. Alicia communicated with us promptly and thoroughly and helped us a lot. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. We especially appreciated the heaters and the heated carpets in the beds. The only minor issue was the water pressure in the shower, which was a bit weak. However, there was always hot water available for all 6 of us during our stay. The location is not within walking distance of downtown Paso Robles, but it is a very short drive away. The house is located in a very quiet neighborhood, so we were able to relax at night. I felt it was a property worth paying for to get around Paso Robles and the wineries during the day.

The house was wonderful, perfect for a weekend getaway with a couple of people! There were lots of games to keep us entertained and the house was comfortable and had everything we needed

My stay was very relaxing, private, and had breathtaking views. Overall enjoyed this place.

What a great place to stay away from the hustle and bustle. Serene and peaceful with a beautiful view. If you want to get away and relax, this is the place. The ranches in the area are well kept and the horses are beautiful. A short drive from shopping, mall and the San Diego Wildlife Zoo.

This was the perfect location. It was only 5 min. to the BVS entrance gate. We came into town to celebrate our grandson finishing kindergarten and it was great to be so close! It was easy to find and exactly what the pictures showed. The bed and pillows were perfect.

This desert getaway was everything I hoped for and more! The home was beautifully designed with a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Waking up to the sunrise over the desert landscape was absolutely magical, and the quiet, peaceful surroundings made for a truly relaxing stay. The host was fantastic—very responsive and provided great tips for nearby hikes and sights. This place was perfect for stargazing at night, and the space was clean, well-equipped, and super cozy. Also appreciated the little thoughtful touches like coffee bar with all the creamer variety, tripod for my pics and feminine products kept in the bathroom bc I forgot to pack some and it def saved me!! I’d definitely come back for another stay and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene desert escape!

Casa de Granero in Santa Ysabel was the perfect rustic and charming getaway for our family’s New Year’s Eve. Richard and Elizabeth, the hosts, were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and accommodating, making us feel right at home. The house was warm, beautifully decorated, and cozy, with a well-equipped kitchen that made meal prep a joy. We also loved the outdoor grill and firepit, perfect for gathering under the stars. On New Year’s Day, my parents and little niece and nephew had a blast playing with the goats—a unique and delightful experience! There’s also a lovely walk to a scenic viewpoint where you can take in breathtaking views of the Cleveland Forest and Lake Cuyamaca in the distance. It’s a perfect spot for a weekend escape!

Rancho Los Cachorros is a wonder, excellent option to spend a few days with the family. The spaces are huge, perfect for my dogs. The photos don't do justice to the beauty of the place, and not to mention the sunset view, simply beautiful. We will definitely be back very soon.

Had a great time. Loved the sound of the birds in the morning as well as seeing them from the window. Nearby alot of San Diego so able to drive by and do anything. Visited the zoo on our last day and was a great time would go again.

First of all, there was a small problem from reservation to arrival, but thank you for helping me quickly and kindly. There was an unpaved road at the beginning, but the scenery there was a great natural scenery that compensated for everything. I came back with a very comfortable mind and healed, and I want to go again if I have the chance.

We had the most amazing birthday weekend at this historic ranch home. The property is even more stunning than the photos. Every part of the ranch tells a story, from the reclaimed wood and vintage décor to the lovingly preserved structures. We stayed in the Galley room, but Tracy gave us a full tour: from the chapel and Cowboy room to the yoga deck, outdoor dining areas, and a creek running through. Tons of games, fire pits, and cozy corners made it perfect for a relaxed weekend with friends. Tracy was an incredible host, warm, thoughtful, and prepared. She had snacks and amenities waiting for us, kept the pellet stoves stocked, and even prepped firewood for cozy nights by the fire. This place is something special: peaceful, full of history, and beautifully preserved with reclaimed materials. Highly recommend for small groups, retreats, or anyone looking for a unique, memorable escape. Reach out to Tracy ahead of time to help plan your stay. Already dreaming about going back.

Meggan was the kindest host you could possibly hope for. Her property is genuinely lovely and inviting. If you're looking for a mountain getaway, some peace and quiet, and nature, this is the place for you. It's so so cute. I can't say enough nice things about not only Meggan, but all those who work at Prospector Ranch. Looking forward to returning.

This was one of my most special and most memorable stays through Airbnb. Monica and her her husband are great. Very responsive and happy to show us around an make us feel right at home. We got to visits all of their baby ponies and they were all so sweet and friendly. Coming from a fast life and busy city, the grounds and animals all together made a super therapeutic and stress relieving experience. A must do at least once. The location is close to Temecula, about 20 minutes away, so this stay makes is great if you want to go wine tasting, go to nice restaurants, visit antique shops and cuddle with horses as well. I highly recommend this listing.

I think I made friends there. These people are seriously nice. I'm a quite untrusting person but I don't know why, while at the ranch. I didn't feel the need to lock my room. That is most unusual. Muchas Fracias Augustin ! PS. He beat me at Ping Pong though...

Fantastic getaway spot for 2. We opted to skip the stay in Cambria and stay at this ranch instead and felt completely validated by our decision. We loved having kitchen access to cook breakfast and dinner and being able to eat the meals on the private porch. Host was very friendly but also gave us complete privacy. Great place to enjoy mornings and evenings, with local towns, attractions, and Big Sur being close drives away

We stayed at this Atascadero listing, which was close to my son’s graduation from Cal Poly and we needed a large property to accommodate a family of 12. Everyone especially the kids enjoyed the pool and all the animals that were around. We all had our own bathroom to get ready. The kitchen was big enough to move around to cook and serve the meals. The pool table, air hockey, pin pong table wake very entertaining too. All my family would definitely stay there again
