where was romance at hope ranch filmed

“Romance at Hope Ranch” was filmed entirely on location in and around Ruidoso, New Mexico , including its surrounding rural ranch areas in the Sierra Blanca mountains.

Ruidoso was chosen for its real working ranches, open pastures, forested hills, and Western small‑town feel, which you see throughout the movie as Hope explores and restores her newly bought ranch and helps revive the Giddy Up Gala. Local reports note that production took advantage of New Mexico’s rural film incentives and employed more than 90 New Mexico residents while shooting there in September 2025, further tying the film closely to the real community you see on screen.
