A ranch getaway can do wonders for the soul. Gather with friends and like-minded others to do something special for all of you over the course of one weekend. It’s a fantastic break from the day-to-day grind and a great reason to get outside and delve into something you love. 

A special ranch getaway weekend can do that for you, and a place like Rankin Ranch offers a unique getaway experience. We offer peaceful experiences unique to each season throughout the year. So come to California and enjoy the peaceful country atmosphere in our little mountain valley.

Overview Of Special Ranch Getaways In California

Each season brings something new for everyone. At Rankin Ranch, there is something special going on every season, and you can join in. Here is a brief overview of the types of getaways you can take part in.

  • Spring Vacations: Get outside and feel the springtime breeze. In our region of California, daytime temperatures range from the mid-50s to the mid-70s. Off-season rates apply during the spring months except for dates during “Spring Break”.
  • Crafty Getaways: Arts-and-crafts retreats have been a popular weekend getaway at Rankin Ranch. We’ve been hosting them for more than 20 years. These retreats include scrapbooking, crafting, and quilting. One of the best parts is that if you need a break, try hiking through the mountains or by Walker Basin Creek to invigorate your creative mind.
  • Cowgirl Getaways: This is a three-day cowgirl getaway designed for women seeking time in the saddle, connection, and rest.
  • Adult Getaways: These getaways are for adults to enjoy riding and relaxing at the ranch. Unplug and reconnect with nature and make some new friends along the way.
  • Summer Kickoff: Kick off the summer with a great ranch vacation and save 15% off our regular rates.
  • 4th of July Celebration: During our Independence Day weekend, we like to divide the families into Red, White, and Blue Teams for our old-fashioned Olympic Games. We also decorate the entire ranch for the celebration–even the horses are patriotic.
