Other than being home to Charles Manson and his "Family" For a small bit of time, it's now all houses and sold for land, most of the things there seemed to be westerns, which went out of style, maybe homes was worth way more money in this day and age, pretty incredible history on this place though.
The State built a freeway between the Upper Iverson Ranch and the rest. The noise from the freeway apparently made it impossible to shoot there. Development had been encroaching for many years which must have made things more difficult.
The Spahn Ranch had a bad reputation for a long time. My dad worked at the Rocketdyne Field Test Lab not too far to the west of Iverson Ranch and the long time locals apparently had stories to tell which he wouldn't repeat to us as kids.
Great production. Thanks for all the work you put in.
Grew up in Chatsworth and played around the rocks like this at Chatsworth Park and in and out of the train tunnel there. This was in the 60's.
Downtown Dodge City in Gunsmoke was filmed at lower Iverson (Topanga & south of the 118) ranch and is now a trailer park
Can we just leave well off alone from developement greed
We are losing a lot of farmland to developers.
Is just me or do the houses look out of place.
This movie ranch was booked months even years in advance I wonder why it closed?

Great work here, surprised in 5 years it doesn't have more views then this
Scenes from Disney's Zorro were filmed here in the late 50's
Even as a kid I recognized the same rock formations in different movies.
I wanted to buy a condo among the rocks as they were so familiar to me growing up!
Sacralidge, money money money.
Enjoying this ty
How close is this to Spahns Ranch? Pretty close I gather
Right across the road - Santa Susanna Pass, I think.
If you stand in the Rocky Peak Church Parking lot you can match the background rocks at the Spahn with photos from films done there.
