Property Description
Welcome to the iconic Circle K Ranch, a stunning estate nestled in the heart of the Santa Ynez Valley - an area renowned for its world-class vineyards and equestrian culture. Spread across 554 breathtaking acres, this remarkable property is a fusion of history, luxury, and nature; making it ideal for a legacy ranch, corporate retreat or hospitality center. Originally known as the J & R Double Arch Ranch, this storied property was once home to McDonald's founders Ray and Joan Kroc, who transformed it into a think tank for the McDonald's Corporation. It was here, the Egg McMuffin was born, a testament to the innovative spirit that flourished within its gates. In 1990, the property was acquired by Gerald Kessler of Nature's Plus Vitamins, who renamed it Circle K Ranch and preserved its original charm and purpose.The property's heritage is captured in its masterfully designed structures. The 17,000-square-foot main lodge, designed by renowned architect Glenn Marchbanks Jr., stands as the centerpiece of the property, featuring 25 en-suite double occupancy lodging rooms, a grand 3,000-square-foot gathering room, commercial-grade kitchen and a dining room that accommodates 100 guests. The lodge's soaring ceilings, hand-carved woodwork and expansive views create an atmosphere of elegance and warmth. The adjacent 5,200-square-foot conference hall serves as an auditorium or theater, seating 62, perfect for corporate events, lectures, or film screenings.
