All Aboard!

Your train ride to Santa’s Barn is coming soon and we are so excited to have you join us for our Annual Christmas at the Santa Margarita Ranch.

Important to know before you go:

  1. You will need to be at the ranch at least 20 minutes prior to your booked departure time. 

  2. Gates open at 3:00pm to allow for the 3:45pm ticket holders time to park and prepare for their train ride.  Please do not come any earlier.

  3. All ticket holders must check-in at the ticket booth to receive your onsite tickets for access to your train and coookie.

  4. Don’t miss your train.  We will be working hard to keep our train trips on schedule, so please do not miss your train as many trains are sold-out and we may not have any space on a later train.

  5. There will be food and beverages, including wine and beer, available for purchase onsite.  No outside food or beverages allowed.

  6. No pets allowed (other than service dogs).

  7. Watch your children, we are a working ranch with the potential for encountering operational agriculture equipment and wild animals.

  8. Remain in designated areas only as there is limited lighting and other potential hazards outside of those areas.

  9. Please drive slowly and only on designated roads. 

We look forward to seeing you!
