In the foothills of Tuolumne County, at an elevation of 2,250 ft. with the mighty Sierra Nevada mountains standing tall in the background, discover the 835-acre Espinoza Ranch, less than 10 minutes outside of Groveland, CA, the gateway to the iconic Yosemite National Park.
A well-equipped and landscaped ranch headquarters offers plenty of space for a large family or many guests to stay comfortably and is also ideal for hosting events or retreats. It consists of a 2,400 sq. ft 3 BD/2 BA main home, a 1,104 sq. ft. caretaker’s house, a 2 BD/1 BA ranch house, a 432 sq. ft. guest house, two cabins, and a herb and vegetable garden for those with a green thumb. Multiple functional outbuildings serve as storage for ranch equipment & an RV, along with a 1,776 sq. ft. shop with power that includes an 11 x 12’ roll-up door and a pair of 11’ x 9’ swinging doors. The multi-purpose, 960 sq. ft. retreat building includes a main area, kitchen, laundry, bathroom, and outdoor fire pit to share campfire stories and make s’mores.
Livestock and wildlife are also called Espinoza Ranch home. With perimeter and cross fencing, six natural springs, ponds, and five wells, including one with a solar-powered pump, two 900-gallon storage tanks, livestock troughs, livestock and wildlife have ample year-round water.
Take advantage of the expansive roads throughout the ranch to indulge in outdoor recreational opportunities such as ATV’ing, horseback riding, or soaking in the panoramic views of Lake Don Pedro from the ranch’s ridge line. Hunters and nature enthusiasts will unite with deer, quail, turkey, and dove spotted roaming the property. Nearby, Tuolumne, Stanislaus, and Merced Rivers provide great fly-fishing opportunities and boating and water sports activities at Horseshoe Bend Recreational Area at Lake McClure. A day trip to explore one of the crown jewels of Sierra Nevada, Yosemite National Park, is a must, being just 45 minutes from Espinoza Ranch.
