Affordable Secret Community in Laguna Beach

Unknown to most of the residents in this coastal area, there is an affordable “secret” community in Laguna Beach.  Nestled in the heart of Laguna Canyon, between the downtown “village area” of Laguna Beach and the surrounding 20,000 acres of indigenous coastal canyons to the East, resides a secluded community known only to few.  Here, a neighborhood of small cottages set amid lush rose gardens, bountiful fruit trees and walking paths abundant with blossoms abound. Where whimsical, meandering lanes with names like Fairywood and Woodland Drive wind through vintage cottages and rustic bungalows.  Most of the homes here have been carefully restored with fine craftsmanship – creating a timeless aesthetic and a sense of “Secret Garden” charm.  Around every bend, one is captivated with magic.  This is the enchanted woodland community of Laguna Canyon.

Laguna Canyon Artist’s Neighborhood

Many of the inhabitants of this hidden pocket of Laguna Canyon are artists or creative people themselves. Inspired by nature and the bucolic canyon they live in.  To the residents who live here, Laguna Canyon is the foundational place that Laguna’s pioneering artists held in the community. Notably, this neighborhood is home to the lively and colorful Arts District “The Hive”, the Sawdust Festival, Art-a-Fair, and the Festival of Arts.

Most of the lanes are walking paths only… resulting in a peaceful setting for chirping birds and frisky bunnies by day, and the chorus of crickets and croaking frogs in the evenings.  Further, live music from the nearby Festival grounds melds with the sounds of nature.  Here, in this friendly “hamlet”, neighbors wave or greet you when you cross paths.  There’s a “small town” feeling, a kinship – a sense of what Laguna Beach was like when back when it began as an artist colony.

Laguna Canyon is also home to a winery, a world-renowned art school, and artist studios, as well as other businesses rich in artisan culture. In addition, downtown Laguna Village and Main Beach are just a short stroll away.

Laguna’s “Canyon Artists” were the creative force that helped make Laguna Beach the sought-after destination it is today. And, while many of the communities that make up Laguna Beach have become modernized, resulting in most of the original cottages being altered or completely replaced – this Laguna Canyon neighborhood was protected.  Most importantly, the surrounding green “open space” has been preserved for future generations who enjoy being enveloped by nature, but residing just around the corner from downtown.  You don’t even need a car living here… Laguna’s Free Trolley stop is a block away!
