Kelly Ranch is in its own bubble in Carlsbad
Kelly Ranch is central to what defines Carlsbad, a coastal city often called the Silicon Valley of golf, with major companies like Callaway and TaylorMade based there. Yet OB Juncal, a local broker and owner of ERA Ranch & Sea Realty, says it's still its own bubble — separated from the city's more intertwined communities by a lagoon and business park. "It was fields when I was in high school. We'd go ride our skateboards there and go up into the hills and do donuts in our car," he said. Outside of being drawn to Carlsbad's coast, Kelly Ranch also brings people in for the private lifestyle and recreation, including easy access to golfing and boating in a nearby lagoon. And despite being more secluded, shopping, dining and entertainment are a short drive away.
Companies like TaylorMade give Kelly Ranch the name "the Silicon Valley of golf."

The largest, 295-acre lagoon allows for jet skis, power boats, sailboats and kayaks. Carlsbad State Beach is less than 3 miles away for swimming, surfing and lounging.
