About this property

Sleeps 20+! Ranch Retreat Minutes from Disneyland - Convention Center - Beach!

Planning a vacation? Wedding? Family reunion? Trip to Disneyland? Or do you just need lots of space to get away? We would love to host you at Barrett Family Ranch!

Enjoy custom craftsmanship in the most prestigious equestrian community in Southern California…Orange Park Acres! Our sprawling ranch house features 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms separated at mini-suites by a giant Livingroom and Western Library. The gorgeous Master Suite features a private balcony, jacuzzi tub, and his/her vanities. Plus be sure to take advantage of our bunkhouse off the giant back porch! Whether your needs call for sleeping six or sixteen (including couches) we welcome you to the Barrett Family Ranch for brief or extended stays.

Ranch style setting among the rustling Eucalyptus trees. Slumber peacefully as warm winds rustle the trees and carry the soft chirp of crickets from the near-by creek. Awaken to singing songbirds and the soft neigh of horses on the trails. Just minutes from Disneyland, Angel Stadium in Anaheim and sparkling beaches like Newport and Laguna, Orange Park Acres is rural retreat in the heart of Southern California’s most visited destinations. Orange Park Acres features a unique system of almost 30 miles of recreational horse trails. It is surrounded by over 2100 acres of open space at Santiago Park and Irvine Regional Park featuring the OC Zoo, Pony Rides and Train rides...perfect for kids and horse-lovers!


This 4050 square foot 5 bedroom, 3 bath custom home sits on an acre lot surrounded by horse trails and the beautiful views of Saddleback hills. Sweeping 14’ ceilings give the Great Room an immense feel as does the handsome stacked-stone wood-burning fireplace with an adjacent library stocked full of Louis Lamour, Charles Russell and other great authors of the Western world.

An entertainers kitchen with custom cabinetry, authentic wood-burning stove (updated with gas and six burners for gourmet cooking standards), antique mounted refrigerator doors, and a large island with separate sink allows guests to help with the cooking! Look up and a vintage, hammered-tin ceiling connects the kitchen to an octagon shaped dining room with another rock fireplace and fabulous French doors that open to grass and plum trees. Gleaming double-sliders adjoin the Living Room to a large covered deck and grassy green backyard, ideal for outdoor meals and family gatherings.

Ascend the sweeping staircase to the Master Bedroom with 14’ open-beam wood ceilings, a room full of warm gleaming antique bedroom furniture, and a custom cedar-lined walk-in closet. Enjoy the custom granite fireplace and ornately carved mantel in your Victorian sitting room and take in the valley views from your private balcony. Step down into a spacious romantic bathroom complete with his and hers antique vanities, dual shower heads and an enormous Jacuzzi tub built for two.

Additional bedrooms offer sleeping for another 8-10 people. A classic children’s room with toys and twin beds (crib available) and an antique Murphy bed converts the handsome library into sleeping quarters.

Great family stay with some adjustments
A lovely place for our family to gather. There's plenty of room for everyone and lots and lots of cookware to make meals for a large crowd. The Wi-Fi is great, showers were great, and there were lots of toys for the little ones to play with. We were unfortunate enough to stay during a heatwave. The A/C system is not great. Some parts of the house (the back cabin, the downstairs bathroom, part of the living room) are nice and cool. As for the rest of the house, the air didn't travel well throughout our 4+ day stay and it got so frustrating that we ended up leaving a little early. I wish we had known this beforehand. Thankfully, they did supply us with plenty of fans (though they were pretty dusty) that kept us at bay but was still a struggle. It is an old house so perhaps that comes with the territory. Additionally, the fridges weren't up to date and didn't keep the food that cool and melted a lot of the ice cream. Overall, if you're looking for a place to gather with a large group and enjoy some meals, this is a great spot just be mindful about some of the compromises!

Host profile image
Hello, I am Cristol Barrett O'Loughlin - daughter to the owners of Barrett Family Ranch (Richard Lee and Phyllis Barrett). My brother (Richard Adam), my husband (Jim) and my daughter (Chloe - 11), all pitch in to help maintain this amazing property so you may enjoy it! We hope to host you and your family at the Ranch!

Why they chose this property

Our family has enjoyed Barrett Family Ranch for several decades now. Many special events have been celebrated at the Ranch - holidays, weddings, birthdays and family get-togethers. Kids love the Ranch and you will too!

What makes this property unique

The property was built from the ground up by my father, Richard Barrett, a master craftsman specializing in antique word-work. He is also a collector of antiques, all things western, and we even have a full-sized train car on the property for your guests to explore. The Ranch is ideally located within 5-30 minutes of the following attractions:

Disneyland
Knott's Berry Farm
Anaheim Convention Center
Honda Center where the Ducks NHL team play
Angels Stadium
Newport Beach
Laguna Beach
Huntington Beach
Irvine Regional Park
Orange County Zoo
Universal Studios (45 min)
Hollywood Boulevard (45 min)
LEGO Land (45 min)
SeaWorld (60 min)
Santa Barbara (90 min)

We are within 5 miles of all the major Southern California highways (but all you hear is birds and horses at The Ranch):

5 Freeway
405 Freeway
55 Freeway
91 Freeway
247 Toll Road

Look us up on the map and you will see how perfectly located the Ranch is to every destination you are looking to enjoy in Southern California.

Come visit! We would love to host you...

Warmly,

Cristol Barrett
