Now surrounded by Vandenberg Village homes, Mackie Mountain’s 17 acres of open space are conserved forever under an easement held by the Land Trust for Santa Barbara County. Also known as Muffin Hill, Mackie Mountain Preserve protects regionally unique Burton Mesa Chaparral vegetation with easy walking trails.
