Dive into Summer with These Three Local Activities
Summer in Lake Forest is a fun time. At Crestwood Apartments , we’re near Disneyland, Los Angeles, and the beach, and our city itself has some great, unique activities. From the Laguna Hills Farmers Market to city-run activities to the Arden Helena Modjeska Historic House and Gardens, here are three of the best activities in Lake Forest, California.
Laguna Hills Certified Farmers Market
Every Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., you can buy a variety of delicious local food at the Laguna Hills Farmers Market . There’s fresh fruit, breads, vegetables, dips, granola, oils and vinegars, and more. It’s small but filled to the brim with high-quality products. Head over to the Laguna Hills Mall to check it out!
City Activities, Classes, and Clubs
Lake Forest holds a ton of activities, classes, and clubs . There’s something for everyone! Here are a couple of highlights:

Arden Helena Modjeska Historic House and Gardens
The gorgeous century-old home of Madame Helena Modjeska , a famous actress of Polish descent, is situated in a beautiful grove of live oaks. Today, it is both a California historical landmark as well as a National Historic Landmark. One of our favorite activities in Lake Forest, California, is to explore the grounds. The grounds are open Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and you can take a guided tour those same days. Reservations are required, so be sure to book ahead of time.
