A Conversation with Karen Hoberg about... ...Why Rancho Murieta? It’s no secret to those who know me, that I just adore Rancho Murieta. My entire family has lived here since 1978 when I began my career in Real Estate. After several years of selling, I launched my own company, Rancho Murieta Homes & Land in 1993. Rancho Murieta is a gorgeous gated community on Highway 16 between Sacramento and Jackson, perhaps a 35-minute drive from downtown Sacramento. Some would say that its history dates back to the days Joaquin Murieta walked the land (Zorro fame, of lore). Rancho Murieta is like a small-town community made up of all age groups. It’s the site of two world-class golf courses, it sits alongside the Cosumnes River and includes six man-made lakes, lots of recreational activity, an equestrian center, a spray park for the children, dog park, a private air field that is host to Rancho Murieta air shows, the new Bel Air Market, the new Murieta Inn and Spa, plus so much more. People tell me all the time how they just love walking on the trails around Rancho Murieta. Wildlife abounds with plenty of deer, turkeys and rabbits. Canadian Geese, swans, river otter, beaver and ducks of all kinds are common on each of the lakes. On weekend mornings it’s not unusual to see one or two hot air balloons just outside your window. You can even see bald eagles soaring from time to time. Several years ago we created a beautiful recreational area on one of the lakes, with swimming, a beach, BBQs, volleyball and a new amphitheater, surrounded by a large grassy area with the lake as the backdrop. It creates the perfect setting for picnics while enjoying exciting musical entertainment on weekend evenings. If you’re looking for peace, quiet, tranquility, a natural setting, myriad styles of quality homes and neighbors whom you’ll enjoy tremendously, Rancho Murieta might just be for you. Give me a call, and I’ll show you what Rancho Murieta has to offer. You’ll not find anything else like it in the region. Could this be why so many people move here and never want to leave?
