V6 Ranch

Welcome to V6 Ranch, nestled on California’s Central Coast in the charming hamlet of Parkfield. Here, we offer more than 20,000 acres of authentic cowboy adventures and experiences set amidst the stunning landscape. Whether you are seeking the thrill of a cattle drive, the charm of a dude ranch getaway, or the tradition of cowboy academies, V6 Ranch offers it all.

Our ranch is a place where visitors can escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, yet it is conveniently located just a short drive from both Los Angeles and San Francisco. Parkfield is a tiny community, known for its low population and serene setting, yet it is rich with the untamed beauty of California's old ranching days.

At V6 Ranch, we immerse you in the heart of a working cattle ranch, giving guests the opportunity to learn, experience, and participate in the day-to-day activities that define ranch life. From roping and sorting to relaxing with a meal at Parkfield Cafe, we promise an engaging and enriching experience.

Our ranch life is not just work; it’s about enjoying top-notch hospitality as well. Visitors can relax and unwind in western comfort at the historic Parkfield Lodge and dine on award-winning California BBQ at the Parkfield Cafe. Whatever activities or relaxation you choose, V6 Ranch ensures a genuine taste of the cowboy side of life.

For over 30 years, the Varian family has opened its doors to guests from around the world. We pride ourselves on offering the best of the American West with authenticity and warmth. We invite you to join us at the V6 Ranch, where the cowboy spirit is always alive.
