Rancho Goleta Mobile Home Park

Rancho Goleta sits in Santa Barbara County in a marine climate zone, offering year-round mild weather and proximity to the Pacific Coast. Located on Ward Drive, the community provides access to Santa Barbara’s blend of coastal living, agricultural heritage, and outdoor recreation - from beaches and hiking to wine country just inland.

Operated as a resident-owned co-op since its founding in 1972, Rancho Goleta is managed by and for its residents. This ownership structure means decisions about the community’s future rest with the people who live here, not an outside investor.

The park maintains 200 lots with straightforward infrastructure: city water and sewer, paved streets, and off-street parking. Lot rent is capped at $195 monthly, with trash pickup and utilities included - an uncommon value in the Santa Barbara area. Pets are welcome within reasonable limits: up to two cats, or one cat and one dog under 40 pounds.

The community supports an active lifestyle with a fitness center, clubhouse, swimming pool, shuffleboard courts, and recreation facilities. Boat storage is available for residents who take advantage of nearby coastal access.
