Gorgeous Rustic Ranch House & Farm Stay on 955 acre Ranch & Berry Farm-Sleeps 15

_______________________________
Beautiful California classic Ranch House located in a pristine wild oak grove and savannah wilderness on the edge of Santa Barbara Wine Country.

Large, private, beautifully landscaped grass area. Combined with the courtyard and patio, perfect for family reunions, private group gatherings, or any outdoor event.

GUESTS SAY THEY LOVE STAYING AT RESTORATION OAKS!
World class wine tasting ('Sideways, the movie area) and vineyards, beaches, hot springs, hiking and biking trails, the Danish town of Solvang, Antiques, Nojoqui Falls, golf courses, an awesome zip line, the ostrich farm, the Chumash Casino (gambling/concerts) and more are all less than 15 minutes away. Albertsons grocery store, CVS Pharmacy, restaurants and convenience stores and everything else you might need during your stay is just 5 minutes north in the little town of Buellton.

:: DESCRIPTION ::
The Restoration Oaks Ranch- Ranch House is a historically genuine ranch house that was home to cattle ranchers (cowboys) working this area in the last century. Great for small to medium sized groups looking for modern amenities, great decor, comfort, and location convenience in a natural, rustic setting on a 1,000 acre working Ranch and Berry Farm. The Ranch House and adjoining lounge (an additional cabin-like lounge room for playing pool, darts, board games or just hanging out) are located directly off Highway 101. Just over the backyard berm is Santa Barbara Blueberries, a world-renowned UPick berry farm. There are miles of private dirt roads on the property, great for hiking, jogging, and mountain biking. Groups will enjoy the rolling hills, canyons, valleys, and seasonal creeks and ponds. During winter and spring months the grass is always green and the ponds are often full. The views are always beautiful and there are many interesting areas to explore.

WIFI for $50 per night, two smart TVs, and a tuned Kawaii piano are a few of the extra touches that make the Ranch House at Restoration Oaks an enjoyable place to host retreats, small family get-togethers, relaxing vacation getaways, small weddings & other events.

For a real ‘laid back’ treat, try star gazing. There are no city lights out here. The stars shine brighter than many are used to, and relaxing under the night sky is easily one of the least strenuous ways to spend the end of a great day.

See you at the ranch!

Extended family weekend stay

The house was a nice place to have our family get-together. The house is located on a large ranch property that is spacious and we wished we would have had more time to explore. It was also great to have the blueberry farm nearby within walking distance. Lastly, the owners were very communicative and helpful with their information.

Wonderful stay!

For the second year in a row, we enjoyed a lovely retreat for college student leaders. The property is in a beautiful location and worked really well for our group. The hosts are amazing and very responsive to any requests/questions. We even enjoyed a tour of their farm next door and then picked raspberries and blackberries to enjoy.There is even a fire pit and twinkly lights over the lawn. We hope to come back many times in the future!

Family Reunion

Lovely country vibe. The house and grounds worked really well for our gathering of 16. Kitchen is well equipped and dining room very comfortable for family dinners. Loved having a piano in the living room. Fun firepit area and lights over lawn facilitated a post dinner baseball game. Kids loved berry picking. Highly recommend!

Memorable Christmas Family Celebration

Perfect for a big group. Spacious bedrooms with 3 full bathrooms. We love that the kitchen is functional. Beautiful surroundings around the ranch. We felt safe with the security gate. The only thing I can say is the bedroom downstairs needs some improvements (could use a working air purifier to eliminate the smell, air freshener and an area rug would be a plus). Overall, we all had a great time. The ranch was beautiful. Thank you, Ed & Shay!

I’ve stayed at places before thah boast having a full kitchen for everyone in your group and have been disappointed in the past; but this exceeded my expectations!
