Sage…..one of the best keep secrets in SW Riverside County

Sage

Just east of Temecula’s Wine Country is an area for those who enjoy country living in the wide open spaces of the west.  This little slice of paradise is nestled among the Black Hills in Riverside County and is known as Sage.  This area is where the cities of Hemet, Aguanga and Temecula all come together.  Shopping and other errands are easily done in the City of Temecula or Hemet.   Your school district is Hemet Unified and the elementary school is the quaint Cottonwood Elementary School located in Aguanga, CA.  Cottonwood Elementary serves approximately 270 students across grades Kindergarten through 8th.  The school first opened in 1897 and the original one-room schoolhouse still stands today and was last used as a classroom in 1975.  It is still used today for school fundraisers and other school activities.  

Geographic location

As a point of reference, Los Angeles is two hours west should you decide to visit Hollywood or Malibu.  Camp Pendleton is about an hour west, as is the beach in Oceanside.  If you want to take the kids to Disneyland or Sea World each are about an hour and a half.  As to all the local stuff you need; the post office, the mall and all the big-box stores are about a thirty minute run into town.  Good news!  The wineries are a bit closer and you can get Temecula’s Wine Trail in about 15-minutes.  From there you will have a fine selection of wineries to choose from.  There are a host of venues for wine tasting, fine dining and world class resorts and spas.  Temecula’s Wine Country has fast become a well-sought destination for travelers from around the world.
