Reagan’s ranch was 2 hours NW of Malibu beyond Santa Barbara, up Refugio Canyon Road, nearer to Goleta, CA. Such a lovely location in a very low density area. Fresh and wild.

Susan, I used stay in the State Park & body surf at the Refugio beach break .

The Reagans had several CA properties but, his Malibu "ranch" was well inland in the TV- Movie Colony there where some Western scenes were shot against a painted, blue sky back drop. An historical site has been made out of the home.

I didn’t know that he had a ranch there. I used to camp at the campground up top above Malibu, probably near the area you refer to. I also loved the camping at Refugio.

In his earlier days, before politics I believe, he had a house on the street behind my family house in Pacific Palisades. 1962.
