The History of Reynolds Ranch

The land under Reynolds Ranch was the working ranch of actor Burt Reynolds, a Palm Beach County native who kept horses and wildlife on the property for decades. Scenes from Smokey and the Bandit II were filmed on the site in 1980, a fact commemorated by a historical marker erected in 2017 by the Palm Beach County Film and Television Commission. On April 30, 1988, Reynolds married actress Loni Anderson in a private ceremony at a chapel on the ranch.

Reynolds sold the property to the School District of Palm Beach County in 1999 for approximately $3.85 million. The district had intended to build a middle school on the land, but the school was never constructed, and in 2013 the district sold the parcel to K. Hovnanian Homes for $5 million. The builder opened the community with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 21, 2017, which Reynolds himself attended. He died the following year at age 82.

Community Setting and Amenities

Reynolds Ranch is gated and centered on its lakes and preserve rather than on a clubhouse or golf course. Private trails wind through the community's equestrian area, and residents have convenient access to the wider network of riding trails that runs through Jupiter Farms — one of the few places in Palm Beach County where horses are a normal part of the streetscape rather than a novelty.

A homeowners association governs the community. Buyers should confirm current rules on horses, outbuildings, fencing, and trail access directly with the association before making an offer, since these provisions vary by community and change over time.

Living in Jupiter Farms

Jupiter Farms sits west of Interstate 95 along Indiantown Road, an unincorporated area defined by large lots, agricultural zoning, and a genuinely rural feel that ends abruptly a few miles east. Two of Palm Beach County's best outdoor destinations are effectively local:

• Riverbend Park — a 680-acre Palm Beach County park in Jupiter Farms with 10 miles of hiking and biking trails, 7 miles of equestrian trails, and 5 miles of paddling routes on the Loxahatchee River, which is federally designated as a National Wild and Scenic River. The park also contains Seminole War battlefield sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
• Busch Wildlife Sanctuary at Abramson & Schlaggar Reserve — the sanctuary relocated from its longtime Jupiter site to a roughly 19-acre campus at 17855 Rocky Pines Road in Jupiter Farms, opening there in September 2024 with expanded habitats for its resident animals.

East of the neighborhood, the rest of Jupiter is a 15- to 25-minute drive. Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium in Abacoa hosts spring training for the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals and the season for the Jupiter Hammerheads. Downtown Abacoa offers walkable dining and events; the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse & Museum anchors the waterfront; and Jupiter's public beaches are roughly a 20-minute drive from the community.

For shopping and the arts, The Gardens Mall and The Borland Center for Performing Arts are both in nearby Palm Beach Gardens. Healthcare is centered on Jupiter Medical Center on South Old Dixie Highway in Jupiter; the hospital broke ground in June 2026 on a second campus at Avenir in Palm Beach Gardens. President Donald J. Trump International Airport (DJT), formerly Palm Beach International Airport, is approximately 25 miles south.

Schools Serving Reynolds Ranch

Reynolds Ranch is served by the School District of Palm Beach County. Jupiter Farms Elementary School is located within Jupiter Farms itself. Middle school assignment for the area falls to either Watson B. Duncan Middle School in Palm Beach Gardens or Independence Middle School in Jupiter depending on the specific attendance zone, and high school students generally attend Jupiter Community High School. Attendance boundaries are adjusted periodically, so families should confirm current zoning for a specific address directly with the School District of Palm Beach County.

On the private side, Jupiter Christian School serves pre-kindergarten through 12th grade at its campus on South Delaware Boulevard in Jupiter and has operated since 1963. Palm Beach Christian Academy runs a preschool program within Jupiter Farms for two-year-olds through VPK.

Reynolds Ranch FAQs

What types of homes are available in Reynolds Ranch homes for sale?

Reynolds Ranch consists of 30 custom single-family estate homes built by K. Hovnanian Homes between 2017 and 2021, drawn from eight original floor plans with up to roughly 4,994 square feet of living space. Most homes offer four or five bedrooms, three or more bathrooms, and three-car garages, on homesites of up to 1.88 acres. Common features include impact-resistant glass, volume ceilings, porcelain or wood flooring, and covered lanais with summer kitchens and pools.

Is Reynolds Ranch a gated community?

Yes. Reynolds Ranch is a gated community with a single controlled entrance off Jupiter Farms Road. The gate, combined with the roughly 90 acres of preserve surrounding the homesites, gives the neighborhood a level of privacy unusual for an area of otherwise open, unincorporated acreage.

What public and private schools serve Reynolds Ranch homes for sale?

Public schools are operated by the School District of Palm Beach County. Jupiter Farms Elementary School is located in Jupiter Farms; middle school assignment is typically Watson B. Duncan Middle School in Palm Beach Gardens or Independence Middle School in Jupiter depending on zone, with Jupiter Community High School serving the area at the high school level. Private options include Jupiter Christian School, a PK–12 school in Jupiter founded in 1963, and Palm Beach Christian Academy's preschool program in Jupiter Farms. Confirm current zoning for a specific address with the school district, as boundaries change.

What makes Reynolds Ranch different from other Jupiter neighborhoods?

Two things set it apart: scale and provenance. At 30 homes on roughly 150 acres, with about 90 acres held as native preserve, it offers acreage and equestrian trail access that coastal Jupiter communities cannot match, while remaining gated and uniformly newer construction. It is also built on the former Burt Reynolds ranch, where Smokey and the Bandit II was filmed in 1980 and Reynolds married Loni Anderson in 1988 — a piece of local history marked on the site itself.
