Welcome to Rancho La Scherpa! (805) 448-5944


Rancho La Scherpa is a mountain top  retreat center located on 210 acres in  the beautiful Los Padres National Forest,just 20 miles from 
Santa Barbara, CA.  It is the perfect setting for your next retreat, science camp, planning session or team building event. We cater to churches, schools, corporations and just about any other group that is looking for a secluded get-away with plenty of activities for kids, adults and families. 

Take a look at the three videos on this page to see
what is going on at Rancho La Scherpa.
You will learn about the activities as well as the wildlife
you might see at our camp. Each video provides a slightly different

If you are a church group that will be
 visiting our camp, I can promise

God's presence in a very special way.
