Ortega Mountain Ranch

Ortega Mountain Ranch is a rare jewel of private land nestled in the 40,000-acre Southern California San Mateo Wilderness, a part of the Cleveland National Forest. We are uniquely situated ‘away from it all’, yet we are close to the large urban centers of Orange County and Riverside County.
Ortega Mountain Ranch is not a traditional boarding stable. It is a private ranch where we offer exclusive and custom retirement or lay-up boarding that follows our philosophy and passion for a natural lifestyle.
If you are interested in your horse being cared for as he was born to be cared for, we invite you to inquire as to how we can meet your horse’s needs.
Kind Words…
“We wanted to thank you for caring and loving our beloved Kinzy. You made her life, to the end, a very comfortable and loving environment. We can’t express how much we are grateful for how well you took care of Kinzy. You genuinely do love all your animals and we thank God for bringing you to us. Please know that you will always be remembered for your kindness. And we’ll always remember and love our Kinzy.”
