Summer is officially here and that means 4th of July is right around the corner!
To celebrate, check out the City of Lake Forest 4th of July Parade. The Parade will be held on July 4th, 2023 at 9:30 am. For more information visit the City of Lake Forest page.
If fireworks are your favorite 4th of July tradition, head over to Newport or Laguna beach. Both cities will be hosting their annual Independence Day fireworks.

Our preserved natural parks are point of national pride. Get out in nature this 4th of July at the Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park. The park contains bike, hiking, and equestrian trails. Be aware that some trails are closed for trail maintenance. Bring a field guide and binoculars and you may just spot some local animals like mule deer and great horned owls.
Want to just relax close to home? Cool off in the clubhouse pool while the kids enjoy the splash zone. And if you really want to stay home for the holiday, don't forget to take full advantage of the California room in your home at the Oaks! This offers the best of indoor/outdoor living; providing shade and comfort while feeling the breeze and enjoying your spacious backyard! For an even better time, invite over friends for a backyard BBQ!
