Descending on the valley

The tales of Horsethief Canyon Ranch are as tall as the Santa Ana Mountains. According to local lore, 19th-century outlaws descended on the canyon because it was riddled with hidden trails that made it easy to smuggle stolen horses. Though thievery gave the area its name, today the canyon is home to a peaceful neighborhood in the Temescal Valley. California’s Route 15 is just a short distance away, but most homes in Horsethief Canyon Ranch have a rural vibe, thanks to the quiet streets and mountain views.

A small community with big opportunities

From the 1980s to the 2000s, builders in the area favored the Spanish Revival style. Stucco walls and terra-cotta roof tiles offer durability and allow the local homes to maintain a consistent temperature in the desert climate. The planned community features mostly single-family houses running between $600,000 and $800,000, with modest driveways and attached multi-car garages. Solar panels, spacious patios and in-ground pools are also standard. The community offers scant shopping and dining opportunities, so a car is essential for getting to the grocery store or grabbing dinner. Likewise, most residents drive to work in either Anaheim or Los Angeles. The closest major highway, Route 15, offers access to Corona city center, which offers more retail and dining options. “There’s only so much you can do locally, but it’s more affordable here,” says Jennifer Larson, a Realtor with The Top Results Group at RE/MAX Top Producers. “It’s a community that’s great for commuters.”

Saddle up for outdoor fun

Horsethief Canyon Park and its 50 acres of recreational space are at the heart of the neighborhood. With two dog parks, play areas, soccer fields, hiking and horse trails, the park feels far removed from city life. Clematis Drive Park and Indian Creek Park are also nearby, both featuring large playsets perfect for horseplay . The Horsethief Canyon Ranch Community Center includes a pool, tennis courts, and a fitness center, while Skull Canyon Ziplines, across the highway, tempts thrill-seekers with four zipline courses and a three-level Sky Gym. Seasonal family-friendly happenings in the area include an Easter egg hunt and Snow Day, during which The Shops at Dos Lagos transform into a winter wonderland. “Temescal Valley is considered part of Corona, but it’s really a community of its own,” Larson says.

The naked truth

Two miles north of Horsethief Canyon Ranch, the Glen Eden Sun Club is a family-friendly nudist resort that has been in business since 1963. While the resort isn’t part of the planned community, newcomers to the area might not wish to confuse it with Glen Ivy Hot Springs, a posh spa further up Route 15.
