1948- On January 1, 1948 a wildcatter named George Hadley, who had been oil prospecting in the valley for 10 years, made the first oil strike in the Cuyama Valley. Richfield Oil Company soon moved in and extracted nearly 300 million barrels of oil in just a few short years. To accommodate an exploding workforce in the early 1950s, the company built the town of New Cuyama, its infrastructure, public buildings, the Cuyama airstrip (L88) and all the industrial structures that are now home to Blue Sky. Richfield Oil Company, later merging with Atlantic Oil Company forming the Atlantic Richfield Oil Company (ARCO), created high-paying jobs, a safe and prosperous community, and developed schools, churches, and recreational areas for the employee-residents.1973- With dwindling production in the area and new discoveries in Alaska, Atlantic-Richfield Oil Company put the town of New Cuyama and its associated infrastructure up for sale. Word of an entire town for sale made its way to entrepreneur, Russell O’Quinn of the Foundation for Airborne Relief (FAR) and Mildred Dotson, a wealthy widow from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The two worked together to acquire the townsite and adjacent land. O’Quinn, an aviator, inventor, and test pilot, aspired to use the New Cuyama airstrip and facilities as a base for humanitarian relief and a non-profit trade school. Though not fully realized, FAR’s primary vision included utilizing converted military aircraft to airlift food and medical supplies to developing countries and global disaster areas. Dotson had loftier goals. Her plans included an 18-hole fly-in golf course, expansion of the Buckhorn Restaurant and Motel, and a 40- to 50-acre lake for amphibious landing and water sports. 1986- Another visionary, Harry Kislevitz, inventor of the popular design tool Colorforms® and founder of Future City/Villages International, sought to develop the site as a “City of Friendship,” an all-electric village of 5,000 earthen homes. The dwellings were to be designed by Nader Khalili, an Iranian-born architect who specialized in earthen structures, worked with NASA on prototypes for lunar homes and received an award from the United Nations for his work towards the development of low cost, sustainable structures for human shelter in impoverished and disaster prone environments. One 628-sq-ft Khalili prototype remains on the property today ("the Cantina"). Khalili went on to form the California Institute for Earth Art and Architecture, Cal-Earth, in Hesperia, CA.1993- Recognizing the transformative potential of clean, solar power and the attractiveness of a rural destination, entrepreneur Mike Nolan worked to develop the Solar Skypark and Big Sky Guest Ranch with Santa Barbara Architect, Barry Berkus. The Sky Park included plans for sixty-five fly-in residences on one-acre lots powered completely from clean, solar energy. The Big Sky Guest Ranch was intended to function as a clubhouse for Skypark residents complete with an equestrian center, a small subsistence farm, pool and plenty of enriching recreational activities. 2012- At the end of 2011, the Zannon Family Foundation made a long-term investment in acquiring the New Cuyama Airport property with the vision of rehabilitating the site to be a low-cost resource for programs and organizations working to advance sustainable living practices and technologies. Plans began soon after towards developing a framework and organization to develop the space and coordinate with prospective programs and institutions. In 2014 Blue Sky Sustainable Living Center ("Blue Sky Center") received 501(c)(3) not-for-profit status, endeavoring to reclaim this property for the public good. Today, Blue Sky Center provides unduplicated services and technical assistance to support small businesses and entrepreneurs as well as the local food system, with core work focused on community research and advocacy led by Cuyamans.

Wolf Six Ranch • Wine Country Stay

Wolf Six Ranch @ Indian Oaks Wolf Six Ranch @ Indian Oaks sits in the heart of Central Coast wine country—oak-dotted hills, a stone’s throw from downtown Creston and just five minutes from the nearest winery. We traveled full-time around the U.S. for over a year in our RV, and our favorite stays were always on someone’s property—ranches, farms, and wineries. That’s part of why we fell for this place: along with a cozy tiny house, we have two RV sites with full hookups, making it a natural fit for fellow travelers. We purchased the ranch this year for our kids, family, and friends—and while we’re making improvements, we’d love to share the serenity and small-town feel of Creston with you. We’re tucked away, not isolated—20–25 minutes to Paso Robles, Templeton, or Atascadero, and about 35 to San Luis Obispo. Spend the day wine tasting, visiting farm stands, or hiking nearby trails, then come “home” to quiet, big skies, and knockout sunsets. Wildlife is part of the rhythm here—deer in the pastures, cows wandering through like they own the place, and great bird-watching (quail in the grass, hawks cruising above, owls after sunset, hummingbirds and blue jays in the oaks). Straightforward, from-scratch breakfast items by Christy (trained chef, long-time culinary instructor): baked goods, fresh fruit, and ranch eggs when the gals are laying. Work-in-progress charm (honesty corner): • Rustic ranch setting—unpaved roads, occasional mooing, and frequent jaw-dropping sunsets. • Cattle and wildlife roam—please admire respectfully and leave gates as you found them. • Great hiking on the property, plus easy access to dozens of wineries. • Our gate says “Indian Oaks” (you’re in the right place!). • We’re actively upgrading as we go—comfortable, thoughtful spaces made for unwinding, not perfection. If you’re craving nature, stillness, and the friendliest small-town energy—without giving up world-class wine—Wolf Six Ranch is your spot. Come exhale, explore Creston, and let me handle breakfast.

Hello! We have a charming custom-built mini western town featuring two fully insulated and furnished cabins. One cabin has two sets of bunk beds, while the other has a full-size bed. Both cabins are fully furnished, except for blankets and pillows. We also have a bathhouse with a full restroom and shower facilities. In addition, there is a rustic main cabin used primarily for cooking, gatherings, and spending time together on the property. This is a truly unique place. Geologists have discovered a perfectly preserved fault line on the property, along with a small cave where guests can admire the natural rock formations. You can explore the structures by walking around the property or simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the views, abundant birdlife, and peaceful surroundings. My father built this place and lived here for nearly 20 years. Welcome to Mannyville. Each structure has been built in its own unique way, and my father loved refurbishing old wood. Many of the buildings feature a blend of recycled materials with a touch of modern style while still maintaining their rustic charm. You can stay in the cabins or bring your own camping trailer, RV, or tent. This property is perfect for gatherings. A giant oak tree spreads its branches all the way to the ground, creating a beautiful shaded area for family gatherings and celebrations. We enjoyed many years of memories under that tree. If you have a horse, you’re welcome to bring it and enjoy horseback riding. If you have bikes, bring them along and explore the area while enjoying the beauty of nature. We hope you enjoy your stay! P.S. More photos coming soon.

Get away from town and enjoy the peace and beauty of the countryside! Stay in our charming trailer with its own private, fenced yard on our gorgeous ranch. Light a small campfire, or keep it dark and see more stars than city living would ever allow! Listen to the frogs serenade you at night from the pond below the campsite, and enjoy the birds singing throughout the day. There are lots of hiking and riding trails, plus incredible views. Come meet our “gangsta-girl geese,” or feed our friendly goats and alpaca. We are just 2 miles from the Parkfield Cafe (open Thursday through Sunday), which offers incredible food, and 35 miles from the quaint wine country town of Paso Robles. The immaculate trailer sleeps 2 in one queen-size bed. There is a flat spot just outside the trailer if you would like to pitch a tent for two extra guests. Dogs are welcome! We have a private dog park with a small agility course available free of charge, as well as miles of hiking trails. We also offer some great add-ons (at an additional cost) for your canine friends through Varian Kennels: dog training lessons, a full-pace tire-out run using my quad, day boarding (if you would like to spend a day touring Paso Robles without your pups), and dog washes. Visit our website for pricing and more information. Note: Proof of up-to-date vaccinations must be sent to the landowner before the booking is completed. A $60 per dog, one-time cleanup fee will be added (see “Extras”). Horse corrals are also available for $25 per night, per corral (feed not included).

I stayed in the Verde room, and it was very cute and clean. Bed was super comfy. Walking around the property was very nice - the tent sites seemed really fun and unique. Gavin was a great host! He told me about the wildlife in the area and let me feed his chickens. Also, I woke up to cows walking around outside my door in the morning, which was so cool. And the views of the surrounding rolling hills were so beautiful.

Pink Pony 2 yurt had all the views of the night sky to view the Perseid shower and see the Milky Way. The supplied pots, pans and chairs under the covered small patio and creature comforts of the comfortable bed made for a wonderful 2 night stay in mid August. Nathan was very kind and attentive to answer our questions. The new donkeys and small horse were a fun bonus to see. We will be back next year to also see the surrounding hills in all the green glory of spring.

Perfect spot for stargazing! Nate's attention to detail is top notch, so many adorable and thoughtful touches at this site. The solar batteries made it so we were never left without power. Yes it's hot during the day, but soaking in the cowboy tub really helped, and the tent cooled way down at night. The animals are adorable, and Nate made sure to give us eggs for our first morning there. Beds are comfy and cozy, the yurt is more spacious than you'd think, and the donkeys provide plenty of comedic relief. Absolutely wonderful stay!!

Would definitely recommend staying at Gavin's, either for weekend away, or for a road trip LA - SF! You've got the outdoor feeling of camping but with the luxury of a room with a bed. Very cozy atmosphere and amazing surroundings. Away from the more touristic areas, giving you a very remote feeling... Rooms include a kettle, cups, coffee maker, wine glasses and wine opener (the essentials ;) ). Be sure to bring the other stuff you might need. The campgrounds looked also pretty good.
