Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort getaway!
The incomparable natural setting of the Alisal Guest Ranch summons your spirit of adventure.
There are few places in the world where time seems reluctant to move forward. The Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort, nestled in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley and the renowned Santa Barbara Wine Country, is one such rare retreat.
The tranquil waters of a hundred-acre spring-fed bass fishing lake invites both the early morning angler and the afternoon fishing party. Let our fishing guides show you an experience of a life time. Traditional casting or fly-fishing trips available. For the angler looking to learn how to fly-fish, take advantage of our Orvis endorsed guide here to give lessons and start traditions. Jason Grupp will teach you the technique of fly-casting and give you an understanding of the gear used to catch fish with a fly. He can also take you on the lake with traditional style fishing gear to catch a trophey.
Fifty miles of horse back riding trails beckon, tennis, arts and crafts for the kids and a fitness center and spa on the ranch to complete the perfect vacation experience.
For golf enthusiasts, the Alisal ranks among the best. Golfers will be challenged by two 18-hole championship courses, each with a distinctive personality and a terrain uniquely its own. The Alisal’s fresh air, mild climate, and remarkable beauty invite outdoor recreation of every kind.

"" March, 2009 - We engaged Jason's services because we wanted our three young kids to have a great first experience with the sport of fishing. Jason was so easy-going, patient, safety conscious, pleasant, knowledgeable and "did everything for everyone" - just making it fun! In the two mornings we spent with Jason, all of us learned how to use the rod & reel, attach different baits, cast, catch & release. In about 15 minutes, all of our kids had caught their first fish! Jason also educated our family on area wildlife and took us hiking on shoreline trails. That time was almost as memorable as the fishing with Jason showing us area springs, dangerous plants, animal tracks, bird nests, fossils, how deer shed their antlers, etc. If you are looking for assistance with a family fishing trip, we cannot recommend Jason highly enough. All of walked away loving to fish and with a greater love, appreciation and knowledge of nature. Can't wait to fish and camp with Jason over the summer - we love you man! ""
