Beach Lake Stables: A Unique Equestrian & Outdoor Retreat by the Sacramento River
Welcome to Beach Lake Stables—a +/- 33-acre property nestled in the heart of the Sacramento River Delta, offering the perfect blend of natural beauty, equestrian tradition, and modern income potential. All just minutes from downtown Sacramento and the airport, this one-of-a-kind property is a sanctuary for horses, humans, and wildlife alike.
Set against one of the largest bird sanctuaries in the world, 10 acres of the property border protected wildlife habitat, offering unmatched privacy and an ever-changing landscape of migratory birds, deer, otters, foxes, and more. Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast, investor, or equestrian, this property presents a unique lifestyle and business opportunity.
Originally developed over 40 years ago as a horse-boarding facility, Beach Lake Stables has since evolved into a multifunctional retreat. The property is largely in its original configuration; however, the current owner has upgraded a number of buildings on the property. With multiple residential units and a fully operating horse facility, this property is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a retreat on the Sacramento River.

25+ horses currently boarded, cared for by a dedicated, on-site team.

Guest Units: Log cabin, two studio apartments, a garden motorhome, and a caretaker's motorhome—each with separate entrances for guest privacy.
Outdoor Features: Pool, gardens, shaded decks, and multiple quiet spaces for gatherings.
Public restroom for guest use near the parking area, ideal for equestrians or day visitors.
Hunting, Fishing & Outdoor Adventure
Few properties offer this kind of private access to duck hunting, fishing, and boating—all in one place.
Duck Hunting: One of the few private properties with direct lake access for waterfowl hunting, located within a major migratory flyway. Hundreds of ducks and geese pass overhead daily during the season. The hunting window is limited to early mornings (5–8:30 AM) to ensure peaceful coexistence with horses and guests. A dedicated blind on the property makes it ideal for small, high-end hunting groups.
Fishing: The adjacent lake and nearby river are home to some of California’s largest bass, with guided fishing trips available for guests.
Boating: Cliff’s Marina sits directly across the road, offering easy access for guests. Take a scenic 45-minute boat ride to Old Sacramento for lunch or a sunset cruise.
Trails & Wildlife: Private trails for horseback riding, biking, and walking meander along the river and sanctuary, offering constant encounters with birds, deer, and native wildlife.
A Lifestyle & Business Opportunity
Beach Lake Stables is a functioning, income-generating property with the potential to grow. It’s true value lies in its versatility:
Operate as a private family compound, horse training center, or potential boutique retreat/resort
Other potential options might be: Duck hunts, fishing trips (with lodging for guests), utilize Airbnb for shorter term rental operations using the existing facilities, etc. The options are limitless.
