Cuyama Buckhorn is a timeless roadside resort in the heart of California’s high desert within Santa Barbara County, where community, locally-inspired food, and artistry flourish.
Our iconic property was originally built in 1952 as the community hub for the valley of Cuyama, at a time when New Cuyama was a booming oil town. More than 60 years later, Cuyama Buckhorn has transformed into a sophisticated boutique resort boasting historic mid-century meets Western vibes and luxurious modern amenities, nestled in the picturesque Hidden Valley of Enchantment.
