Heralded by the LA Times as “an island of calm amid the bustle of the OC,” Nellie Gail Ranch is a coveted equestrian community of 1,350 pastoral acres in Laguna Hills. Named after the wife of 19th-century rancher Lewis Moulton, the community sprung up in earnest in the 1970s. Since then, the sprawling homesites of Nellie Gail Ranch have become renowned for their luxurious trappings, premier amenities, and ideal proximity to beaches and shopping.
