Horsethief Canyon Ranch is a well manicured community of homes that could be considered the hidden gem in the City of Corona's crown. This family friendly neighborhood lies off the beaten path in the heart of Temescal Valley, the corridor of land between the cities of Corona and Lake Elsinore. Horsethief Canyon is the Southermost region of Corona, and for years its residents have seen the nearby area around it start to grow. Today, new businesses and homes are sprouting up in the valley, and the ranch is increasingly becoming the more "established" community in the area. Children and their safety are a priority to the families in Horsethief. Neighborhood watch programs and organizations like Samantha's Pride have been developed to keep the area safe and the residents informed. The schools that service the youth are a part of the Lake Elsinore Unified School District. Luiseno Elementary, located in the center of Horsethief Canyon, was recently awarded a "California Distinguished School Award" for 2006.
The Horsethief community of about 2,000 homes sits next to the Cleveland National Forest overlooking the I-15 Freeway.
Its location remains a popular place for families with children, sports enthusiasts, mountain bikers, hikers, and people who choose to live outside of the city. The master planned community broke ground back in the early eighties and continues to expand with the newest addition of "Lemongrove" homes by KB.
As part of the Home Owners Association, residents have access to club houses, pools, sports fields, and courts for tennis, volleyball, and basketball. Horsethief Canyon children enjoy area parks, a wading pool, and organized leagues for soccer and little league.
