Where to stay

Lockewood Rancho | Spanish Revival-Style Ranch Living on the Eastside of Lodi Wine Country

Imagine the ranch-style holiday or long weekend surrounded by ancient oaks and horses on the outskirts of the old western town of Lockeford, just east of Lodi’s downtown. The Rancho sleeps up to 8, or rent the Rancho + the Ranchita and sleep up to 12.





The kitchen island is 14 feet long so there is plenty of room to help prepare a wonderful feast.
