Reptacular Ranch is a 15-acre ranch in the middle of the Angeles National Forest. It's also a private zoo of over 500 animals!  Our 15-acre ranch is in the Angeles National Forest - near Los Angeles. The Angeles National Forest of the U.S. Forest Service is located in the San Gabriel Mountains and Sierra Pelona Mountains, primarily within Los Angeles County in southern California. The Forest is one of the few remaining open space areas in Southern California.   The forest is an important part of the overall health and well being of the area population. It provides open space, solitude from the everyday stress of modern living, a place to conduct research, a haven for wildlife, and offers a wide variety of recreation opportunities. Reptacular Ranch is also a private zoo of animals including tortoises and farm animals like goats, sheep, alapacs, cows, donkeys, turkeys and pigs. We have lots of birds, reptiles, and a camel and zebra! Welcome. 15-acre ranch in the Angeles National Forest - near Los Angeles.

Perfect family camping with animals
Tent · With kids ·
Reptacular was a convenient, comfortable, and incredibly educational site for my family to camp at (even for me at 28 weeks pregnant with our 2yo) Repracular was lush, weather was great, and they were also communicative on my arrival and tour. The tour was really impressive for me and really hit it for us.

Unfortunately, we didn’t stay the night because it was raining pretty heavily, but we did come back for a tour of the ranch which was really cool. Our toddler really enjoyed playing by the creek and seeing all the animals and petting them. It’s a cool spot so I would definitely recommend and hopefully the weather will be better for you.

The campsite had everything needed including a nice creek which would be great during less dry times. The ranch tour was also very good. The only drawback is that this particular site was close to the road and there was a gate to another center across the street. There was a security guard with bright lights and cars were going in and out all night. It was also a Saturday so cars could be heard racing through the canyon til 4am but this was on a Saturday. Otherwise nice for a brief stay!

First time camping trip with family
Tent · With kids ·
This was great!! Corey's communication was great from the start. Jennifer was so sweet. Her team was amazing Christina and the rest of the team are very welcoming. I can't say enough nice things about them. This was the perfect place for my niece's first camping experience. We got to ride the camels and hang out with the animals. I would definitely return.

A birthday my son will never forget
15 ft pop-up camper · With kids ·
This was an unforgettable experience for my family. We camped on Cory’s land to celebrate our son’s 6th birthday. The views were beautiful in Cory’s and Jen’s land, the creek was running with water, and all around us was green lush mountains surrounding our campsite. The animal tour was a huge cherry on the top. All animals are extremely well taken care of. My son will never forget his 6th birthday!
