Coto
De Caza California
Coto de Caza is a
census-designated place and guard-gated private community in the
unincorporated area of Trabuco
Canyon California. The town is a suburban planned community
of about 4,000 homes, and one of Orange County's oldest planned
communities. The project began in 1970, when it was envisioned
as a hunting lodge and was completed in 2000. Around the town
there are still undeveloped lots available for purchase as well
as two 18 hole golf courses. Currently there are two club houses,
one considered the "old club" and the other the "new
club." The new club harbors the facilities between the golf
courses and the tennis club. The old club, located in the residential
area known as "the Village," once held tennis guru and
teacher Vic Braden, but after its numerous changes in ownership
the club has become less attractive. The old club was also the
home location for the Coto de Caza
Youth Swim Team.
Coto de Caza contains has
commercial endevores, The Coto
de Caza General Store, The Coto
de Caza Guest Lodges (a boutique hotel) and Merry Hill School.
The whole community is guard gated. Residents shop five minutes
away in Rancho Santa Maragarita or ten to twenty minutes away
in Mission Viejo. Students in Coto
de Caza reside in the Capistrano Unified School District and
attend Wagonwheel, Las Flores Middle, and Tesoro High Schools.
