ABOUT FIREFALL RANCH
While brand new, Firefall Ranch has historic roots, having served as a stop on the original stagecoach route to Yosemite in the 1870s. Set on 300 sprawling acres of meadowland and Sierra foothills along Yosemite's Highway 120 West corridor, the most direct route to Yosemite from San Francisco, Firefall was built by long-time local contractor Robert E. Boyer Construction, Inc. and is owned by the Boyer & Oliva Families in partnership with the Chicken Ranch Rancheria of Me-Wuk Indians of California.
