On a shady hilltop just thirty minutes south of downtown Los Angeles sits Rancho Los Alamitos, an incomparable landscape that tells the tale of Southern California history spanning centuries.
Twice listed on the National Register of Historic Places, today's 7.5 acre site is an unsurpassed oasis in time with an adobe-core Ranch House, the lush gardens and barns area of the early 20th century working ranch, and a new Rancho Center. Rancho Los Alamitos is a place for all time, revealing the culture and ecology of the region past to present.
"It was the feeling of the life that had been lived here before...a thousand different influences, as though a great river were flowing past. The continuity of life...that was the secret. -Florence Bixby, 1922
