When life gives you lemons, take a stroll beneath them 🍋

A little shade, a little sunshine, a little history, and plenty of menu inspiration. Lemons have been growing on property for 200 years, first as the San Ysidro Citrus Ranch and taken to the stone citrus packing house, now the Stonehouse Restaurant. Today enjoy the shade of the lemon pergola with fresh squeezed Ranch lemonade, a lemon tart with the view from the Stonehouse Terrace, or any number of delicious creations from Chef Matt.

Reserve your stay to enjoy the views and complimentary dining from Chef’s organic garden 🌱

Long weekends with special celebrations at the Ranch are that much harder to check out ❤️

Garden parties and barbecues hosted by Chef Matt for the whole family, with live music and lawn games. Enjoy the festivities as a Santa Barbara local, or a guest of the resort with complimentary dining included in your stay.

From the archives: A glimpse of the Ranch, 20 years ago 🎞️

The roses were blooming, the bougainvillea over Hacienda was still young, and the cottages lined the creekside gardens with an easy stroll to dinner on the Stonehouse Terrace.

Some things are simply timeless. Reserve your stay in this era of the Ranch’s history 🏡
