Summer is a time to celebrate, and our Southern California communities have great ways for every member of the family to enjoy some fun in the sun. From pools and playgrounds to fire pits and outdoor living, Brookfield SoCal has it all to make this summer the most memorable yet.

When the weather gets warm, spend days lounging by one of the sparkling community pools. At New Haven in Ontario Ranch, you'll have access to resort-style amenities at The Resort, Cherry Park and Emerald Park, including its soon-to-come pool. With a kids' splash zone, tot lots, BBQs and picnic tables, your summer awaits just outside your front door.

At Spencer's Crossing, The Oasis is your escape from it all. Dive into either of the two pools surrounded by terraced seating or grab a chair around the fire pits, where summer evenings can be spent with friends new and old. If that's not enough, head over to The Club, the community's spacious recreation building with a spa, BBQ area, junior Olympic-size swimming pool and children's wading pool. Several acres of parks with trails, basketball courts and fields for baseball and soccer will keep sports enthusiasts happy all year long.

Along with their resort-inspired pools and kid-friendly playgrounds, both Rancho Tesoro and Audie Murphy Ranch offer a connection to nature that can't be beat. Audie Murphy Ranch boasts something for everyone, including miles of walking trails, a beautiful garden and sun-filled parks. Summer at Rancho Tesoro can be spent socializing with neighbors at local events or hiking the nearby scenic trails. In San Marcos, you're close to it all.

In every Brookfield SoCal community, residents can enjoy neighborhood activities and events throughout the summer or host their own events at any of the private amenities. With all of this and more, it's easy to see why our Southern California communities are the best places to call home in the summer and all year round. Come for a tour of the new homes today!
