As “the best of the Southern California West,” the Garner Ranch upholds a long tradition of serving as a unique and accommodating film and photo shoot location. Located only a couple of hours from Los Angeles and San Diego or an hour from Palm Springs, it’s an easy commute for crews, cast members and photographers.
