Deer Creek Ranch is located on the western edge of the Jackson Range, north of Jackson Creek Ranch.

Deer Creek Ranch appears on the 1967 edition of the Vya 1:250,000 map. The GNIS map does not list Deer Creek Ranch, but the GNIS download file indicates that it is located at 41.3996223, -118.5037727.

In 1944 a Mr. Capelli owned the ranch. For awhile, it was thought that the ranch would need to be vacated because of the Black Rock Desert Gunnery Range.[1]
