Ever since one of Tinsel town’s most revered actor-director Clint Eastwood bought this old, rundown historical ranch back in 1986 called Mission Ranch, he made sure that he hired the best architectural and engineering team to restore it to the way it was during the 1850s. He even enhanced the interiors of the place and painstakingly maintained it to be the best ranch-resort in California.

The Mission Ranch today is one of the most visited places in Carmel. It does not hurt that it is owned by one of the award winning actor-director in Hollywood but the place is quite magnificent and so people who wants a more laid-back type of vacation prefers to stay in the Mission Ranch.

They have 31 rooms with fireplaces and Jacuzzi services. Tennis buffs will have a blast here since they have six championship tennis courts and a fitness gym to accommodate those health aficionados who can’t live without their daily workout.

Dining in Mission Ranch restaurant is an experience quite different from other places. The views are quite spectacular; grazing sheep and the serenity that the ranch is offering is amazing.

It is a good way to relax and forget the toxic, fast paced life in the metropolis. Mission Ranch was originally a 160-hectare property but as time goes by and with 17 previous owners, when Clint Eastwood saw it, the property is only 22 hectares.

It is quite surprising that they really do not charge much but booking a room is not that easy. It would be a wise move if reservations were made early. Check out their site: Mission Ranch for more details.
