Bar SZ Ranch

Set on 2200 acres in its own valley with iconic California oak trees and golden hills; views of the surrounding mountains and Pinnacles National Park; and painted, sunlit skies, this working ranch offers a unique backdrop for any visit or event.

Our seasonal activities may include feeding and grooming the animals, horseback riding, learning to rope, practicing archery, target shooting, exploring the creek, hiking the vista, walking a pig, snuggling a rabbit, playing games, BBQing over an oak grill, sitting around the campfire, roasting s’mores, and soaking in the stars.

Onsite games include pool, darts, ping pong, horseshoes, corn hole, swimming pool, and more. Feel free to bring your favorite field games and glow-in-the dark items.

Our two beautiful guest homes provide guests with a scenic getaway on a real, working ranch.

Set on a private hilltop overlooking the ranch and surrounding mountains and valleys, the Ranch House boasts 4,500 square feet of living space plus a detached apartment and pool house. With a wrap-around porch, 6 bedrooms, lush yard, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, and much more, the Ranch House is the perfect, peaceful escape from city life.

Or, take a trip back in time with our true Log Cabin. This 2,100 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is cozy and spacious, with views of the surrounding pastures and mountains. You’ll enjoy sitting on the front porch, barbecuing in the backyard, and cozying up by the stone fireplace. You might even make a grass-fed friend!

We are located in a very rural area. That is what makes it such a special retreat stay. It is extremely quiet and wonderfully peaceful, surrounded by all the beauty that San Benito County has to offer. There is no public transit due to our remote location. Guests are welcome to take walks around the ranch and enjoy the many mountain hikes and beautiful vistas! We also have an array of games and activities for guests to enjoy.

The grounds are home to thousands of native birds and animals. We are just 10 minutes from the Pinnacles National Park which offers world-class hikes, rock climbing, and outdoor educational classes. The ranch is located 45 minutes from a town with shopping and restaurants.
