About High Horse Ranch
Welcome to High Horse Ranch
High Horse Ranch, located in California’s Mendocino County, is reached through winding gravel roads. Its dramatic entrance, leading to a panoramic forest valley view, is truly memorable. The design focuses on enhancing the arrival experience: a scenic drive, a walk through shaded areas, and then the stunning valley view as you enter the house. A Blend of Architecture and Nature
The main house overlooks the valley, complemented by two guest cabins in the woods. Sharing materials like reclaimed wood, cor-ten steel, and glass with the main house, these cabins offer both communal spaces and private amenities.
