EXCL: Logan Paul Lists Infamous ‘LSD Ranch’ in California for $3 Million

YouTube star-turned-professional boxer Logan Paul has put his infamous California mountain retreat on the market for just under $3 million—seven years after he snapped up the property, which is known as the “LSD ranch” for a third of that price.

Paul, 31, who is married to model Nina Agdal, with whom he shares a 1-year-old daughter, Esmé, purchased the 78-acre spread in 2019, more than 50 years after the property had been used as the headquarters of an LSD operation run by former Harvard professor Timothy Leary.

Records show that the property is registered to a trust named for both Paul and his brother, Jake Paul.

Leary, who was known as the “High Priest of LSD” and was once branded “the most dangerous man in America” by then-President Richard Nixon, is understood to have produced a particular type of LSD tablet known as Orange Sunshine at the ranch, alongside his loyal followers, who were known as the Brotherhood of Eternal Love.

As a result, the compound was raided by federal agents in 1972, when they are reported to have found Leary producing drugs out of a teepee on the parcel.

Before Paul purchased the ranch, a previous listing had detailed the property’s fascinating history at length, stating: “With more hippies, as they were referred to by the locals, joining the Brotherhood, this often unpredictable group would later operate vegetarian soup kitchens, oppose the Vietnam War and preach to others that the regular use of LSD would create a more sensitive human race.

“Eventually, 30 or so members lived in the compound which included a ranch house, outbuildings, and teepees.”

The latest listing, which is held by Bill Church of So Cal Coast Real Estate, makes no secret of the property’s rather unique heritage, although it neglects to include details about its LSD ties, stating: “Fobes Ranch has a fascinating history of its own, including its association with Timothy Leary during the 1960s, adding another unique chapter to this remarkable property.”

Located in Mountain Center, CA, the ranch appears to have undergone multiple upgrades during Paul’s ownership—and the description notes that the YouTuber is offering “most of the furnishings, ranch vehicles and equipment with the purchase.”

When Paul purchased the property, the primary residence on the parcel featured just two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, however the new listing notes it now offers four bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, suggesting it has been expanded in the time that the professional content creator has owned it.

“Welcome to Fobes Ranch… a truly extraordinary piece of California mountain history,” the listing crows. “Hidden in the San Jacinto Mountains in Mountain Center, California, this remarkable 78-acre private ranch offers something increasingly rare-space, privacy, and complete independence.”

Described as the ultimate “off-grid retreat,” the ranch features multiple structures across its nearly 80-acre spread, including the main residence, a caretaker’s home, and a bunkhouse.

There is also a horse barn, green house, gymnasium, numerous garages and sheds, and a 300-yard shooting range, ideal for those with a passion for outdoor activities.

“For the outdoor enthusiast, the possibilities are endless-horseback riding, dirt bike riding, four-wheeling, hiking, wildlife watching, ranching, or simply enjoying the peace and solitude of your own private mountain retreat,” the listing continues.

The home is also entirely self-sustaining, having been equipped with solar power, batteries, a propane backup tank, and a “gravity-fed water system.”

And while it is located on an incredibly remote parcel that sits four miles from the nearest highway, the ranch does offer a fair amount of proximity to some nearby hubs, including Idyllwild, which is a 25-minute drive away, and the Palm Springs Airport, which is reachable within an hour’s drive.

While it’s not thought that Paul used the property as a working ranch, the listing makes clear that it could easily serve as one, noting: “The property features expansive, level acreage suitable for cattle grazing, a seasonally full pond, and miles of four-wheel-drive trails winding throughout the ranch.”

The ranch’s impressive array of outdoor amenities is similar to those enjoyed by Paul’s brother, Jake, at his sprawling $40 million retreat in Georgia, which he purchased in 2025.

While it is not immediately clear why Paul has decided to list the property, it may well be because he’s decided to focus his real estate investments in Puerto Rico, where he moved in 2021.

At the time, he explained that he had made the decision to relocate his primary residence from California in order to take advantage of the boxing training camps, as well as the country’s favorable taxes.

“It’s getting crazy here in California, paying taxes,” he said in a February 2021 YouTube video. “In Puerto Rico you’re motivated to do more and make more money because of the implications that come with it.”

Soon after he moved, the New York Post reported that Paul was living in a stunning $13 million mansion within the Ritz Carlton Reserve in Dorado Beach, however he has recently relocated to an even grander dwelling that he proudly showed off in a September 2025 YouTube video titled, “I Bought a $32,500,000 House.”

His new home, where he lives with Agdal and their daughter, features a staggering spread of amenities, including a tennis court, a movie theater, a dazzling swimming pool, and a private elevator.

In the cover image for his YouTube video, Paul hammed up the luxurious nature of his dwelling, adding an image of himself surveying his new manse while his wife jet skied across the pool—and a helicopter landed on the roof, although it’s unclear whether these additions were just for show.

The property is located near the expansive $16 million mansion that Paul’s brother, Jake, purchased in 2023.

Jake’s Puerto Rico pad certainly has plenty of impressive features to rival his brother’s spread; set on over an acre of land, it features over 12,000 square feet of living space, including eight bedrooms, and 10 bathrooms.

The compound is split between a 7,632-square-foot primary residence and a detached 5,000-square-foot entertainment building.
