La Tuna Locations, aka The La Tuna Movie Ranch, is the centrally located 10-acre gated movie ranch compound in the Studio Zone of Los Angeles, nestled in the "nature’s corridor" of the Verdugo Hills, just 7 minutes from the Hollywood/Burbank Airport, between I-5 and the 210 freeways.

Two gates access 2 acres of on-site parking handling the largest of cast members, crews, trucks, and honey wagons. Rolling hills surround the compound with horse trails and switchbacks.

We have five unique homes with over 12,000 square feet of interior space in a variety of architectural themes from our Mediterranean villa, our Spanish hacienda, and the craftsman mountain chalet to our quaint cottage, and modern architecture. There is also a large indoor jacuzzi with an adjacent indoor steam room/sauna. Our burnt house with the spooky dungeon basement is the perfect set for horror themes and music videos.
