Another unique attraction is the Calabasas Country Club, which was built on the former Warner Ranch, the only movie ranch that was located in Calabasas city limits. Though the stables are all that remains of the Warner Ranch, the country club still pays homage to its roots: each hole of the course is named after a movie that was filmed in the area.
