There’s an oasis in Orange County where everyday feels like a getaway. Relaxation and rejuvenation come standard with elegant homes by two of America’s preeminent builders, Toll Brothers and Shea Homes. Their idea of resort living is nothing less than extraordinary. This is life as it should be. This is Baker Ranch.
Situated in the scenic foothills of Lake Forest with a backdrop of the Saddleback Mountains, Baker Ranch offers the perfect balance of indoor/outdoor lifestyle in an exceptional master planned community. The recreational choices are limitless with miles of planned trails linking to the Orange County trails network for hiking and biking.
1,750 homes (from over 4,000 sq ft luxury homes to 1,200 sq ft townhomes) across 18 different communities make up the award winning Baker Ranch. The community is central to key highways that put you within east reach of major employment, the coast, and all the wonderful shopping, dining, and entertainment opportunities of Southern California.
With trails, picnic areas, barbecues, open space and playgrounds, Promenade Park is a beautifully landscaped linear park where residents can take a walk, have a picnic, or relax in a hammock while the kids play. Idyllic doesn’t even begin to describe the 11 different park areas.
Adventure can be found just steps from your door at The Grove Clubhouse with its gourmet kitchen and open dining area, children’s splash park, 4,800 sq ft lagoon-style pool, beautifully landscaped courtyards with majestic mountain vistas as your backdrop, and a special quiet pool and spa area. The covered outdoor kitchen is perfect for family or group get-togethers.
The Arbors Club is just as much fun with more places to swim, splash, climb, barbecue, and play. Each heated salt water pool area has its own cabanas for that true high end resort feel.
Dive in at The Vista Swim Club and find a junior Olympic size pool, a wading pool, a spa, fire pit and another outdoor kitchen fully stocked with grills, cooktops, refrigerators, TV, heaters, overhead fans, and pizza oven. Go Courtside and you’ll find basketball courts, both big and small. There is also The Oaks Tennis Park with multiple tennis courts, pickle ball and handball courts.
The Baker Ranch Community Park brings the community together for events, ball games, team celebrations, and everyday play dates. Baseball and soccer fields, full basketball courts, and picnic areas are just a few of the fun outdoor facilities that help knit together the residents of Baker Ranch and help create a special place where memories are made.
Baker Ranch has an impressively long list of lifestyle amenities that feel like resort living at its best. Experience a lifestyle that makes vacation seem redundant!
