WELCOME
To Rancho de la Questa
Relax, Learn, Explore, Create....
​
Rancho de la Questa is the heart of the San Diego county backcountry. Located in historic Mesa Grande adjacent to the Cleveland National Forest and "Big" Black Mountain, the area has a rich ranching history and is the ancestral home of the Mesa Grande and Santa Ysabel tribes.
Located at an altitude of 3200 feet and set in a forest of Engelmann Oak, Coast Live Oak, Manzanita and Chapparal, the Ranch strives for sustainable small scale food production while maintaining the beauty and solace of this sacred place.
Cattle and wild turkeys share the roadway.
Night skies here are dark and clear.
