Beautiful property to stay at!

Such a great area to stay for a big group retreat! A gorgeous property inside and outside. We had 40 people staying for the weekend, and loved the space and the view on the property. The ranch manager was great to communicate with and made sure that everything was good to go for us for the weekend. This property is a hidden gem in the Victorville area. We look forward to coming back.

Amazing place to stay!

We took our employees here for a team building event. We were a total group of 27 people. We enjoyed this property immensely! It was so clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed, there are plenty of bathrooms and beds for everyone. The history of this place is well preserved and everyone that attended the event was impressed and enjoyed the stay. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a place to stay for a larger group. Peggy was our host and she was very helpful and informative!

Leadership retreat

This place is special. I brought 17 of my leadership team to the ranch to have an immersive and interactive meeting opportunity. The way the ranch is laid out, everyone had their own personal space but we also had space together indoors, and out, to cook, eat and meet together. While it’s a drive from the nearest airport, and the trains are frequent, the location is well worth it!

Beautiful Ranch, we had a great time!

We had a group of 19 stay at the ranch to celebrate my 35th birthday. The property is very unique and the views from the ranch are absolutely stunning. Peggy was very helpful and easy to communicate with. The pool was nice and cool and so large our entire group only used a small part of it. Overall we had an amazing time and I would recommend this property to anyone!

What a unique place!

As you drive in to this place you are amazed by this beautiful ranch property. The house takes you back to 1929 and you feel like you have left everything to come rest and enjoy a very unique place. Peggy was the best host. She was very helpful and was always available if we needed something or had a question. I loved how our big group could have each meal in different dining room areas to create fun new experiences for everyone. They have ACs in every room so even though it was very hot outside, we were very comfortable inside the house. And the grand pool was a great spot for our big group. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Life changing :)

A group of 12 family and dear friends rented out the main house and an additional adjacent suite for our annual New Years getaway. We’ve done this for years elsewhere and gone from the mountains to the desert to the ocean and stayed in many beautiful places but never have we experienced somewhere so magic. The moment you come through the gate you transport through time. Our contemporary troubles faded behind us with the rest of the world, our adventurous spirit awoke and our children’s faces and minds lit up with fun ideas and potential. Those feelings lasted the duration of our stay. We were planning our next trip to the ranch before we even left. Peggy the manager was the kindest and most accommodating facilitator I’ve ever worked with. From booking request to checkout she made everything easy and seemless. Jimmy the warm ranchhand met us upon arrival and gave us an informative tour before handing me the keys and saying “it’s all yours.” It was such an incredible time that looking back at it now it almost seems like a dream we all had. One that we’ll be having over and over again for the rest of our lives. See you soon, KC Ranch ;)

Absolutely charming!!

Cannot recommend this venue enough!! It holds its age which makes it feel like a second home you've visited your whole life. We were incredibly impressed at how the rooms dealt with the extreme heat which was unusual for that time of year! The pool is huge, the patio is perfection, the kitchen is fun and very accommodating and is equipped to feed an army , but what makes the ranch so special is Peggy. She is the manager and her love for the ranch is infectious. We left respecting its history, enchanted by the powerhouses that had stayed there and looking forward to our future visits. We filled the place up and there was not one need that wasn't met. We would use it winter spring summer or fall because it offers many different charms. It can be used as a blank canvas that dresses up gorgeously or kept to its original rustic beauty. We HAD to play a live action game of "Clue" because the rooms are so amazing you want everyone to see them all! The train does run all night but most didn't even hear it (thanks to thick adobe walls). Out of those that did hear it, there was not one among us that didn't think it was cool, if you want you can bring earplugs. The Ranch is part of the family now and because our children fell in love with it as well, we hope it will be available for generations to come.

Hidden Valley Ranch

One minute you're driving along the 15 heading to Vegas, the next minute and just a few quick turns, you find yourself in a hidden lush sprawling oasis. Surrounded by green pastures teaming full of life (cattle, jack rabbits, frogs, crows, lizards ...) with the ranch house tucked up into the hill looking down over it all. The house itself, I'm calling it The Nancy Drew house, is awesome. Every room is more charming than the next and if you love books ... there are books in EVERY room, even the bathrooms! A kitchen outfitted with everything you need, comfy beds, 4 dining areas, 3 indoor and one beautifully lit outdoor seating area. Tons of fire places, lots of windows. We had a group of 20 women for an annual get away, 10 of us stayed in the house and the rest of us took up some guest rooms. We had a great time, it was perfect for being together or breaking off into groups. We did yoga on the lawn, went for walks down to the pasture to visit the cows, see the train up close, we swam in the giant olympic pool, cooked lots of big meals, and played board games and puzzles. It was a real retreat. I absolutely loved it and want to go back as much as I can! Thank you KC Ranch for being available for rent and being so easy to work with. PEGGY IS AWESOME!!! - Heather

Lovely Getaway on a Charming Ranch

We have returned to the Kemper Campbell Ranch for 3 years in a row because it is such a unique, serene setting. Tucked behind a hill, opening up to the Mojave River, we love how in just a few minutes you are out of the hustle and bustle of the city and spending time on a peaceful ranch. We have our annual holiday party here every year and everyone loves it! The management and staff are so wonderful. This is an experience not to be missed!

Incredible, hidden gem!

This is our second stay at KCR. Such an amazing place with so much character and charm. The view is beautiful and even the train added a historic touch. Our ministry team hosted a Women’s Retreat and Peggy couldn’t have been more accommodating to us. When we had either questions or a need, either she or her helper Brittany, were on it immediately. Amazing customer service! Looking forward to the next time for sure...Susan and the C4C Ministry team.

A desert Oasis

This place is AMAZING! We were in search of a place that would accommodate our family reunion. We had 35 people 18 which of were children. The ranch had plenty of space for our family. The kids had lots of room to run around and play and the adults had a wonderful time hanging by the pool! We had flipping contest off the diving board and a corn hole tournament in the lawn. The kids enjoyed visiting the horses and long horns (from a distance :) The house had plenty of space for us to have our meals together and the pool area has a wonderful BBQ area. The staff was friendly and incredible. Peggy responded in a timely manner to any questions we had before and after our time at the ranch. Jimmy the handy man promptly fixed any little troubles we came across. Everyone had a wonderful time and we all look forward to planning our next trip to the ranch!!

Our stay at the Ranch was absolutely magical!

I can't begin to describe what an awesome time we had at the Kemper Campbell Ranch. Ten of us celebrated my sister's birthday at the Ranch over a long weekend, and our holiday couldn't have been any nicer. All of the mechanics of coordinating our stay were handled seamlessly through the Ranch Manager, Peggy. The Ranch is absolutely stunning. Each of us had our own room with adjoining bathroom, and I very much appreciated this privacy. We planned all of our meals ahead of arrival and gathered in the main house to cook and enjoy each other's company while dining. You basically have your own park-like setting outdoors with an Olympic size pool with BBQ area, tennis courts and lovely paths to meander while contemplating the beauty of the desert. It was hot in August, over 100 degrees, but between the sparkling pool, the wonderful breezes and the inside A/C, I never noticed the heat. Kemper Campbell Ranch gives you the opportunity to live as early California pioneers, but bathed in luxury. Remember - you are visiting the desert and not a 5 star hotel in the middle of the city. Expect dust and bugs outside; we even saw bats at night!!!! My favorite part of the trip was the fact that there were no televisions at all, and the gorgeous living room has no overhead lighting (it is illuminated by lamps and sconces). The aura was absolutely magical. Thank you for sharing your stunning home with us! I will cherish the memories forever.

A wonderful hidden gem.

We had our annual college roommate reunion with our families here at Kemper Campbell Ranch. The adobe Main House is very charming and rustic. We also rented the adjacent Papa's Room to fit our large party. Most of our days were spent at the Olympic size pool with a diving board that the kids absolutely loved. By evening, our dinners were spent outside on the patio. Even in the middle of summer, by dusk there was a great breeze to enjoy out there. From the patio we all really enjoyed the views of the cattle and horses grazing out in the field. And the trains drove by every 20 minutes. You might think annoying, but it was so fun to see the various engines and cars. Another thing the kids loved. We played board games in the room where the first draft of Citizen Kane was written. There is true character and history here at the KC Ranch. You could feel it and it made our stay that much more enjoyable. Peggy was very easy to work with and easily accessible if we needed anything. Although old and dated, anything you need to cook with you could find in the kitchen. The commercial griddle was fun to cook with. The beds were a little wobbly and squishy but i was still able to get a full nights rest. The whole gang had a great time. I definitely recommend this place as a quick getaway from LA with a large group.

Scenic property great for large groups!

We hosted our 12th year of family reunion at Kemper Campbell Ranch this summer and everyone had a great time. We had about 50 people ranging from 1 to 70's year-old from all over the country at the ranch and rented all 16 rooms, and everyone had something to do. The pool was the largest we've seen on a large rental property and the keepers made sure it was clean at all times. Peggy and her staff were very accommodating and very accessible. We had some trouble with some air conditioners not working and minor maintence issues but that was easily repaired. The kitchen was well equipped, although the flat top was not always very warm. The days in Victorville were hot hot hot and the pool was refreshing. We also took advantage of nearby hikes in the mornings and early evenings, as well as meeting Daisy the donkey. The train tracks were very close to the property and some people had a hard time sleeping at night as they blow their whistles day and night, but the kids loved it so bring ear plugs but this bothers you. The house has so much history and it was enjoyable learning about the history of the property. We'd go back there again!

Rustic ranch getaway that you can get to drive to in less than 2 hours

I would characterize the property as an older rustic and quaint ranch with the amenities you should need for a quick getaway to the desert. We got to the property in about an hour and forty minutes and the directions were right on. Stores and other places were easy to get to if you either forget things of ran out of them while there. The mansion and adjoining rooms were affordable to rent, airconiditioned, comfortable and clean. You get bang for your buck. The property manager Peggy was very helpful and quick to respond, together with the rest of the staff, proactive and got the issue with the power and main dining room airconditioner went out. We all loved our stay and we agreed to come back next year!

"The Ranch" has so much history...beautiful place...feels so far away yet so near to everything...

My large family was going to stay at various hotels to attend a memorial service. I decided to search HomeAway to see if there was a property that could hold all 20 + of us with our last-minute travel arrangements. I found this property and luckily it became available during our stay. Peggy was so helpful in accommodating our complex travel plans as our guests arrival/departure dates were constantly changing. Sad as the situation was for our family, we all enjoyed our stay. Peggy’s assistance on such short notice was invaluable. This property is now such a memorable place for all of us. We all enjoyed learning about the history of the place. After you pass the hill from the main entrance, the scenery changes from a city street to a beautiful cattle ranch. The Main House and the Guests Rooms we rented at the Cloister and Monterrey buildings were exactly as Peggy described them - the beds were comfortable, heaters worked perfectly, all fireplaces already had wood/kindling setup when we arrived, hot water never ran out, kitchen was fully equipped so just had to bring food. The Main House has so much space with its gorgeous main living area with fireplace and beautiful wooden staircase, three separate large dining rooms, a sitting room, a separate den with fireplace, the many bedrooms upstairs and downstairs some with fireplaces and a spacious patio in the front. The Mojave Narrows Regional Park is next to the ranch. Yes, there are freight trains that run through the property throughout the day and night that blows its horn for an ungated crossing but this really adds to the charm of the place. The kids loved to watch and listen to the long “choo choo” trains go by. Our entire family truly enjoyed our stay at what we now endearingly call "The Ranch". We hope to come back again soon.

The most AMAZING experience!!

I booked this ranch for my regional conference for over 50 volunteer leaders. We maxed out every room, and set up a few cots in the "den" and "sitting room," and we still had more than enough space leftover! With sub 20-degree temperatures at night, everyone was in t-shirts inside the house because the fireplaces and heaters kept everyone so warm! The sun heated up the huge outside patio during they day, where most people spent their free time. The kitchen boasted enough room and utensils to prep all of our food and between the various additional rooms (library, den, sitting room, second dining room, front room...) we were able to have break out sessions and classes for all 50+ leaders! Peggy, the manager, was accommodating and responsive the entire weekend (not that we had any complaints or issues!). Overall, it was an amazing experience and I can assure you that Team Rubicon (Disaster Response Organization) will be back to visit...again, and again, and again! Thank You! - Mike
