Oak Springs Ranch started off as a stagecoach stop. In the 1860's miners used this land as a supply point. Since 1977 its been family owned and operated. This 80 acre "off grid" ranch is located between Apple Valley and Big Bear, off Bowen Ranch Rd. and route 3N14. Always known for the spectacular views, overlooking the Mojave Desert and just a couple miles from the beautiful San Bernardino forest. We offer horseback rides on local trails, or check out the water caves. If your feeling adventurous, take a ride to Deep Creek Hot Springs.
Don't follow any GPS navigation, you will end up on an off road trail. DO NOT take Oak Springs Rd.

Nice location to get away from civilization. Not too far out there, but far enough away to escape the city lights and sounds. Check road conditions first, because it is about 10 miles of dirt road to get there. Not much cell service so be sure to download a map before driving up.
