Carmel View Ranch

Horse Boarding

Carmel View Ranch is a private ranch off of Del Mar Mesa Road. With year round temperatures averaging in the 70’s, our location offers the ultimate climate for year-round riding. From the ranch, riders have direct access to miles of open-space trails as well as manicured horse trails around Del Mar Mesa.

Back in the 1970’s, Sheila and Robert Loftin, started a little ranch in the chaparral, north of San Diego and east of Del Mar, on what is now called Del Mar Mesa.

Since 1981, Robert has been raising, breeding and boarding horses. Over the years, there have been many changes but we continue to ride off the ranch into hundreds of acres of open space trails. The coastal climate is ideal for trail riding year round. Carmel View Ranch has evolved into a small boarding facility where trail riders can confidently board and ride their mounts.

Trainers, professional horse traders, therapeutic riding programs, clinics, camps, classes and lesson programs are not allowed at Carmel View Ranch. We do not lease or rent out horses.
