Our Story

From Heritage Fly Fishing Lodge to Premium Nature Retreat

Bailey Creek Ranch is an 82-acre Northern California retreat in Manton, CA, about 45 minutes east of Red Bluff and Redding. For years, this place was known as one of the region’s premier fly-fishing lodges—a destination for anglers from across the West. That heritage is still alive in the waters that wind through the property, but today the ranch is also so much more.


I'm Sean, and Bailey Creek Ranch has been part of my family for years. I stayed here often with my kids and fell in love with the land, the lodge, and the feeling of slowing down in nature. When the home came up for sale in 2024, I purchased the property and am excited to carry its legacy forward.


In June 2025, I re-opened the ranch with new life: freshly updated amenities, space for families and groups to gather, and a renewed vision for the property as a retreat for fishing, adventuring, and reconnecting.

Planning your next vacation?

Whether you’re planning a family reunion, a friends’ weekend, a team offsite, an anglers’ retreat, or simply a few days to unplug in nature, Bailey Creek Ranch is your private home in the wild.
