Learn more about Lake Forest

Between two man-made lakes and a historic eucalyptus forest lies a slice of Southern California that defies expectations. Enjoy the amenities at the Lake Forest Beach and Tennis Club or hike through Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park where red-tailed hawks circle overhead. The Etnies Skate Park offers concrete dreams for boarders of all levels. Heritage Hill Historic Park provides a glimpse into Orange County before it became, well, Orange County. At Serrano Creek Park, simply watch the light filter through those famous eucalyptus trees – planted in the early 1900s as part of a lumber operation that ironically created the very charm that now defines this unexpected oasis.
