The backyard is truly designed for entertaining and everyday enjoyment, featuring a sparkling pool and spa, tropical landscaping, tailored hardscape, and built-in BBQ with sit down bar just off the kitchen and patio area.

"Terrible drivers, oh my goodness. Accidents happen EVERY DAY in the double digits in Lake Forest. El Toro has terrible traffic as well as Bake, Trabuco, Jeronimo, etc… it is really crammed now. What was good in 2013 is now Mini-LA in 2025. I should have left 5 years ago"

"As a resident for over 5 years, I think Lake Forest is highly underrated. There are few places in OC where you can find affordable single-family houses with big lot. Besides, it has good schools, low crime, friendly neighborhoods and a lot of trees! I can't believe people haven't found out they could get better houses for the money here than nearby expensive cities."

"I’ve lived in this neighborhood for 4 years now. There are shops and restaurants and lots of other amenities within a 10 block radius. Neighbors are friendly enough without being nosey. The worst thing about the lakeside community is the geese during mating season, so if that’s the only thing that can be found to complain about then you know it’s a peaceful place to live."
