The gateway to the Santa Monica Mountains, with a gentle pond loop and the Anthony C. Beilenson Visitor Center full of hands-on exhibits. The first two hours of parking are free — perfect for a short nature walk with little ones, and the wide, level paths suit strollers.

King Gillette Ranch was the perfect venue for our wedding! The property is absolutely stunning, with beautiful scenery and a gorgeous setting that made our day feel so special. Everything was well maintained, and the venue provided an incredible backdrop for both our ceremony and reception. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the location, and we couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful place to celebrate. We highly recommend King Gillette Ranch to any couple looking for a truly memorable wedding venue.

The Night of The Jack event was a good time with the family! I'm a wheelchair user/paraplegic so getting around the the parking lot and main concessions area was a little challenging with the rocks and gravel. Otherwise the rest of the layout and event was enjoyable! Our 2 year old had a great time.

Night of the Jack is pure Halloween magic! The trail at King Gillette Ranch in Calabasas is beautifully lit with thousands of hand-carved pumpkins, creative themed displays, and a fun, family-friendly atmosphere. From the glowing jack-o’-lantern art to the spooky music and food trucks, every detail feels immersive and festive. Perfect for kids and adults alike — definitely a must-see fall experience in SoCal! 👻

We bought tickets for "Night of the Jake" and had a great time. They had food trucks drinks and two bars. The light show was fantastic. Will do this again. I heard that they have a Christmas event also, can't wait to go to one.

This review is only for the Christmas lights festivities. Unfortunately, this was a big let down. The majority of the displays looked terrible and cheap and not much to it. We pick a new place every year and this was by far the most underwhelming installation of all. There were a few nice installations, but not worth the drive nor price.
