Leona Valley offers rural scenery with cattle and no cell service
Leona Valley is in the green and arid Lakes district of the Antelope Valley in the Angeles National Forest. The Lakes are a special area, rife with history and ruggedness, sublime and, at times, harsh. “It’s beautiful and very mountainous,” says Michelle Pendergrast, a licensed Broker Associate with Keller Williams Antelope Valley. “You lose cell reception for about 15 minutes when you enter the neighborhood, but that’s what’s nice about it too. You’re forced to unplug.” Originally named Bouquet Canyon because of the native California poppies so abundant to this area, there are few places in the country more stunning and majestic to unplug. The valley is also renowned for its cherry farms, which are open to amateur pickers willing to pay to gather their own and curious visitors seeking a bucolic afternoon. Cattle head graze in nearby ranges and you’re sure to get some of the best hamburger and steak around at local restaurants.

Outdoor lovers enjoy trails, cherry farms and forest access
Leona Valley has the benefit of having easy access to both the wilderness of the nearby streams and trails and the nearby more urban areas of Quartz Hill and Rancho Vista. The California Aqueduct Trail, a hilly and dry path along the state’s ingenious system of channels and waterways, passes just northeast of the Leona Valley town center. Southward leads deep into the 650,000-acre Angeles National Forest where intrepid outdoor lovers will find place like the Artesian Spring Campgrounds, a primitive site where visitors can hike and swim in Bouquet Falls. Rancho Vista Golf Course in Quartz Hill provides a more modern recreational experience. The small mountain town of Green Valley is under 5 miles south of Leona Valley. Here, visitors will find camping spots and trail heads, including those for the Pacific Crest Trail, which runs all the way from Mexico to Canada. Windy Ridge Chery Ranch is a great place to bring the family during the summer.
