3 Bedroom Place in Merced County, Gustine

Rustic Elegance at The Bird Ranch at San Luis Creek -
Experience the charm of a historic 1906 ranch estate complete with a sparkling pool, creekside dock, and wood-fired pizza oven.
Lovingly restored, The Bird Ranch blends rustic simplicity with cozy elegance across 32 sustainable acres in Central California. The ranch features seven bedrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 11 guests (plus one additional guest for a nominal fee with an added twin bed).
Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a friends’ retreat, or a peaceful escape, this boutique farm stay offers the perfect backdrop. Relax in welcoming indoor spaces, enjoy wide-open outdoor living, and create unforgettable moments under the stars.
Conveniently located just off I-5 near Santa Nella, The Bird Ranch is easy to reach from Southern California, Sacramento, or the Bay Area; making it an ideal gathering place in the heart of California.
Stay Highlights
Sleeps up to 11 guests across the main farmhouse and two unique outdoor bedroom buildings (the Hen House and Love Shack).
Private outdoor pool for cooling off or lounging in the Central California sun.
Restored farmhouse with warm, welcoming spaces designed for relaxation.
Historic barn with soaring doors and wood-beam ceilings (not available for events).
Creekside meadow with a dock for birdwatching, peaceful views, or enjoying the water’s edge.
Wood-fired pizza oven & patio BBQ for shared meals and outdoor cooking. Reach out to hire our private pizza chef during your stay (based on availability).
Firepit evenings under clear Central Valley skies.
The Experience
Spend your days floating in the pool, relaxing on the dock, or capturing photos of the farm animals in the fields. Watch for the incredible birdlife along the creek, sip coffee on the patio, and enjoy the slower pace of ranch life. In the evenings, gather around the fire pit, fire up the BBQ, or create pizzas together in the wood-fired oven.
Unique Stays
The original Hen House and Love Shack were once chicken coops, now converted into cozy outdoor bedrooms. Staying in these spaces is a little like glamping! They are charming and rustic, but do not have attached bathrooms. Guests use the nearby shared facilities in the 1/2 bath or the original ADA-compliant showerhouse.

Please do not move furniture; the home is historic.
A Note About Nature
Bugs and mosquitoes are a natural part of country life, but please know they are seasonal and not present all the time. We strive to keep the ranch comfortable and provide repellent and citronella candles to help make your stay enjoyable.
For extra comfort, we recommend:
- Using repellent before outdoor activities.
- Wearing lightweight long sleeves or pants in the evenings.
- Keeping doors closed or using screens to minimize bugs indoors.
- Mosquitoes are usually most active at dawn and dusk during certain times of year, so a little planning goes a long way. With these simple steps, you’ll be able to enjoy the beauty of the ranch while staying comfortable.
Please note: guests are responsible for managing personal allergies (nut, animal, bee, insect, etc.).
Security Notice
For the safety of our guests and property, please note that security cameras are located on the exterior of the home. There are no cameras inside the house. These cameras are in place strictly for security purposes and guest safety.
