A peaceful Coastal California oasis and outdoor paradise.

The breathtaking Riata Ranch estate is a 1400-acre property nestled at the base of the Santa Lucia Mountains in Santa Margarita, California. Once inside the gates, a world of unique splendor and beauty awaits with a night sky perfect for stargazing!

The rural community of Santa Margarita is known as a stomping ground for acclaimed farm-to-table dining, wine tasting, and craft beer. The quaint village offers the solitude of country living with the bustling energy of San Luis Obispo’s thriving downtown a short 20-minute drive away. Warm spring and summer days are cooled by coastal evening breezes making the Ranch a spectacular setting for alfresco gatherings. The outdoor grilling area, bar, and large dining tables are ideal for summer gatherings.

Perched above the Ranch is the warm and inviting Ranch House. The grand residence is designed with entertaining in mind! 4,500 square feet of open-concept living boasts a professional chef’s kitchen, a grand piano, a wraparound porch, multiple outdoor entertaining areas, and a beautiful pool and spa that overlooks the property. The pool is heated from April-October (it can be heated November-March for an extra charge). The spa is heated year-round.

High end finishes and touches throughout, like John Robshaw textiles and Jerry Scott original paintings set this property apart.

Every room in the house has sweeping views that are sure to be the perfect backdrop for memories yet to come. With four cozy and comfortable bedrooms, a grand living room accentuated by a floor to ceiling stone fireplace and a spacious family room/loft, Riata Ranch offers the perfect gathering space for friends and family.

From the moment you enter in the front gates you will know you just found your home away from home. Easy day trips from the Ranch House are Hearst Castle, Morro Bay, Big Sur, and Paso Robles and Edna Valley Wine Country.

Riata Ranch offers a distinct and magical setting for your life's most treasured moments. Please message us for more information or call to discuss how we can make your stay a one-of-a-kind memorable experience.
