If leaving a desk in the city for a dude ranch in the country seems like your next pandemic move, this 296-acre ranch in Hopland is just two hours north of downtown San Francisco.
Dubbed Rancho Feliz, the property consists of four sprawling parcels with three homes, equestrian facilities, a vineyard, a reservoir, a swimming pool, a generator, solar power and more. The cost of this impressive spread is equal to that of a single-family home in Noe Valley: $5.6 million.
Currently, 3563 Feliz Creek Road is owned by a champion roper relocating to Texas (which explains the professional 1.4 acre lighted roping area).

Not far from Clear Lake and the Russian River, Rancho Feliz could be a weekend getaway or primary residence for buyers who seek a haven from the city.”No where in California can you find this much land and so many amenities only 5 minutes from Highway 101 as Rancho Feliz,” said listing agent Tony Ford of Compass.

The main house features “classic Montana style architecture,” per the marketing materials.


Floor to ceiling windows overlook the vast, Oak studded property.

A stone hearth and open truss design soak the interior in warm light.

The main home features a large kitchen.
