History of Hidden Valley

Hidden Valley has long existed as a ranch community where people go to live a more secluded and private lifestyle in Southern California, although the community is an unofficial one with vast expanses of land between each home. As with the majority of Ventura County, the area that’s now known as Hidden Valley was once the home to Chumash Indians, who had their own small communities in Hidden Valley. Since that time, it has remained as one of the most secluded areas in California, as all water is taken directly from wells and the only type of development that’s been done in the area is in the creation of around 60 ranch-style homes.

Throughout much of the 20th century, Hidden Valley has persisted as a location for movie and television shoots, notably those of the hit TV show 24 and the movie Seabiscuit, a film that focused on the champion thoroughbred race horse of the same name. Since all homes consist of lots of 20 acres or more, Hidden Valley has long been a destination for residents who wish to live an equestrian lifestyle. Many celebrities and high profile professionals looking for a secluded retreat have also called this place home over the years.

Today, it continues to remain unchanged and is among the top places to move to in California for those who want to settle down in a luxurious and rural community.
