The Meadows

The Meadows

Nestled across 126 pristine acres at the southeast corner of Bake Parkway and Rancho Parkway, The Meadows is an exquisitely curated residential enclave offering an unparalleled lifestyle in the heart of Orange County. Once the site of a beloved family nursery, this masterfully reimagined master-planned community now stands as one of Lake Forest's most sought-after addresses, weaving refined architecture together with seven meticulously landscaped parks, scenic trails, and a thoughtfully preserved habitat restoration sanctuary.
