Broken Arrow Ranch is a 1,500-acre+ property in Woodside/La Honda, California, purchased by Neil Young in 1970. The ranch served as a creative hub, housing his home, recording studios, and a model train barn. The ranch, which inspired his hit song “Old Man” was written for Louis Avila, the ranch’s original caretaker, was given to his former wife, Pegi Young in 2014 as part of their divorce.
