Sonny Meadows Ranch — A Rare Sierra Nevada Legacy Estate
Discover Sonny Meadows Ranch, an extraordinary 443-acre private estate set high in the Sierra Nevada, just minutes from Yosemite National Park. Surrounded entirely by National Forest and situated at approximately 4,000 feet in elevation, this remarkable property delivers an exceptional combination of **privacy, scale, natural beauty, and opportunity**.
At the heart of the ranch is an impressive **125-acre alpine meadow**, complemented by **seven spring-fed lakes** and miles of scenic trails winding through the property. Whether hiking, horseback riding, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the landscape, the ranch offers an unparalleled setting for outdoor recreation and quiet connection with nature.
The centerpiece is a spacious 8-bedroom, 8-bath lodge, designed to comfortably accommodate family, friends, guests, or retreat participants. Expansive gathering spaces, high-speed Wi-Fi, and the property's secluded setting create an ideal environment for everything from extended family stays to executive gatherings and destination retreats.
The possibilities extend well beyond a private residence. **Mountain General and Timber Preserve zoning** provide a versatile foundation for exploring a variety of uses, including curated retreats, private events, hospitality concepts, wellness experiences, and other carefully considered ventures, subject to applicable approvals and regulations.
Despite its secluded mountain setting, Sonny Meadows Ranch offers convenient access via **Highway 49 between Oakhurst and Mariposa**, with year-round county-maintained road access. The result is a rare balance: the feeling of a private wilderness sanctuary while remaining accessible from the Bay Area and Southern California.
Whether envisioned as a multigenerational family legacy, private mountain compound, executive retreat, wellness destination, or distinctive investment opportunity, Sonny Meadows Ranch offers the scale and setting to bring an exceptional vision to life.
Properties combining hundreds of private acres, multiple lakes, expansive alpine meadowland, a substantial lodge, and proximity to Yosemite are exceptionally rare. Sonny Meadows Ranch is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a truly extraordinary piece of the Sierra Nevada.
