Set amid the mountains at about 1,800 feet in elevation and roughly 33 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean, this private Ranch encompasses 233 home sites ranging from two to eight acres each. Its location delivers comfortable weather throughout the year-warm, sunny summers; crisp winters; and mild, pleasant springs and autumns. Residents have access to two scenic lakes complete with pavilions, as well as a clubhouse, tennis court, and a dedicated horse-riding arena. Miles of riding and hiking trails wind through the property, so horse owners can simply saddle up-no trailering required. The members-only clubhouse, which overlooks the 50-acre Palo Verde Lake with its sandy beach and floating swim platforms, offers plenty of ways to enjoy the water. Residents can swim, fish, kayak, paddle board, sail, or moor their electric boats right on the lake. Next to the lake sits a spacious covered pavilion outfitted with picnic tables, restrooms, and BBQs, plus a sand volleyball court, badminton court, horseshoe pit, and children’s playground. The clubhouse itself can be reserved for gatherings large or small and features a fireplace, dance floor, pool table, sauna, fitness room, and a full kitchen and bar.
