Quiet, residential community in Menifee

Built in 1968, Quail Valley spread up from the Canyon Lake community into the rolling hills. This tranquil, rustic neighborhood is chiefly residential, but just outside of it are community activities in Menifee and access to Interstates 15 and 215. Its location at the northeast tip of the Temecula Valley means Quail Valley is close to towns along the Interstates as well as mountain and lake recreation. “Quail Valley is a fast-growing area in the ‘burbs. A lot of people come from L.A. or San Diego,” says Mark Evans, real estate agent with TSG Premier Realty, specializing in the southern California region.

Views of the hills

Along the edges of the neighborhood, Quail Valley homes are built on winding hillside avenues. Straight, narrow roads that run east to west make up the center of the neighborhood, and they tend to not have sidewalks. Many of the homes incorporate design touches typical of the Spanish style, whether it be terracotta tile roofing or smooth stucco exteriors with earthy color schemes. Contemporary new builds and ranch-styles are common. Prices begin at $240,000 for an 800-square-foot 20th-century home and peak at about $830,000 for a 3,000-square-foot 21st-century home. Manufactured homes and plots of land are also available in Quail Valley.

Public school education pipeline

Students may attend Quail Valley Elementary, rated B on Niche, Hans Christensen Middle School, rated B and Paloma Valley High, rated A-minus. The high school partners with Mount San Jacinto Community College to offer dual enrollment classes in English, history, math and American Sign Language.

Access to the Temecula Valley

Quail Valley is part of the newer City of Menifee within Riverside County. Homes are located in between Interstates 15 and 215, so residents can make a straightforward commute south to Murrieta or Temecula. “The traffic’s a nightmare, but people live with it because of the quality of life,” Evans says. Going north, Ontario International Airport is about 43 miles up Interstate 15. Additionally, the Riverside Transit Agency bus route occasionally stops along Goetz Road, taking passengers to Menifee, Murrieta and Perris Station Transit Center. Menifee Global Medical Center is less than 7 miles east.

Shopping and dining: casual and local

Quail Valley is predominately residential, but nearby grocery stores like Canyon Lake Market and Stater Bros. Markets serve the area. Restaurants such as Mi Pueblo Authentic, serving Mexican cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner, are a short drive away. The Canyon Cowboy is the place to go for a night out, offering country-style eats and weekly live music performances. Plenty of chain cafes and restaurants are also available within a short distance from Quail Valley.

Hillside hiking and horseback riding

On the hiking and biking trails in the hills surrounding Quail Valley, people “aren’t supposed to ride dirt bikes or offroad vehicles, but you’ll see horses and paragliders in the area,” says Cassandra Borja, Realtor with Coldwell Banker serving Southern California with over 20 years of experience. Further north lies the Roy W. Kabian Memorial Park, an expansive 640-acre park crisscrossed by more hiking and equestrian trails that come alive during springtime foliage blooms. Residents can also head to La Ladera Park for the baseball, soccer and tennis facilities. Though the neighborhood borders Canyon Lake, this body of water is private and not accessible to Quail Valley residents. So for a day on the lake, residents can head to Lake Elsinore, just southwest of the neighborhood.

Getting involved in the community

Residents can stay up to date on local happenings through the Quail Valley Community Group. The group meets quarterly and often hears from guest speakers, like officers from the Menifee Police Department. The group also alerts residents to events throughout the year, such as annual Quail Valley Clean Up, the family-friendly Menifee Multicultural Festival, and the free Thanksgiving meal hosted by the City of Menifee.

Wildfire preparedness

While Quail Valley hillsides are very susceptible to wildfires, “homes are not in the fire zone,” Evans says. Still, clearing brush away from properties is a good practice for fire prevention. Additionally, residents can also sign up for Alert Menifee to be notified of public safety emergencies, and refer to Genasys Protect, an interactive map that shows local evacuation routes.
