Omo Ranch is an unincorporated community in El Dorado County, California.[1] It is located 12.5 miles (20 km) south-southeast of Camino,[2] at an elevation of 3612 feet (1101 m).[1]

Omo Ranch was once a logging town with a sawmill; the mill closed in 1973.[3] Today, Omo Ranch is a rural residential area with few county services. Its population in 1986 was estimated at 150.[4]

A post office operated at Omo Ranch from 1888 to 1974.[2] The name Omo comes from a Native American village.[2]
