Laid-back living and mountain views in Spice Ranch
Spice Ranch is a small neighborhood at the edge of San Jacinto, settled at the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains. The area is mostly filled with 55-plus communities, whose residents enjoy quick access to shopping, outdoor recreation and event areas. "The communities are wonderful to live in," says Jackie O'Gwynn, a former manager at Villa del Monte, a senior community, for 22 years. "It's not fancy living, but being able to see the mountains from your house every morning is sure enough. Residents tend to look out for each other around here, and many of them have become good friends."
