3C Ranch is nestled in the Eastern side of the Santa

Catalina Mountains.With 500+ acres, tranquil 

surroundings, breathtaking views and spectacular sunset

skies, our ranch provides a wonderful setting for almost

any occasion.  The ranch features three guests’ houses 

for overnight lodging: The Ranch House, The Bunk House 

and The Nixon House. Acres of historic 3C Ranch were 

purchased piece by piece by the Darimont family all 

through the 1990’s and right up through 2004. After 

acquiring the last piece , the Darimonts began 

transforming the tired, run-down ranch. The entire 

family started putting long hard hours and energy 

into planning, restoring and rebuilding.

  Today 3C Ranch is beautiful again. 3C boasts three 

fully renovated guests houses, modern horse facilities, 

beautiful corrals, lovely landscaping and more. Three C 

Ranch has certainly regained its prestige of the 1900’s

when the likes of President Nixon, Mae West and many 

others frequented the ranch. Today, guests of the ranch 

can enjoy guided tours in hiking, horseback riding and 

mountain biking. They can tour our historic ranch visiting

the old buildings. Guests can explore old silver mines, bird

watch, investigate the ranch vegetation, get a massage, take 

a Jacuzzi and just relax and enjoy their stay! 

The very near future will bring guests more amenities, such 

as, swimming, ATV tracks, volleyball, tennis, fishing and a 750 

square foot, multi-room banquet facility capable of handling 

corporate seminars, wedding receptions,retreats and just 

about anything else you might have in mind!
