A little glimpse of the Rainbow Community – Rainbow Homes for Sale
Previously known as “Vallecitos” (little valley) renamed in the late 1880s to “Rainbow Valley” after James Peebles Marshall who homesteaded property there. Rainbow has become a popular and affordable 2nd home getaway destination as many homes located there are very remote and affordable compared to the homes in the San Diego or Los Angles areas. A popular local Rainbow eatery is the Rainbow Oaks Restaurant located on the Historic US 395 Highway; it has become a dining destination for families, vintage car enthusiast and motorcyclists alike.
Rainbow is Roughly bordered on the West by the Santa Margarita River, the East by the city of Temecula, the North by Rainbow Valley Rd and the South Just West of I-15. With an average elevation of 1,034 feet and encompassing about 11 square miles, the Rainbow area is warmer than it’s coastal neighbors but is still considered to have the popular warm-summer Mediterranean climate that is enjoyed by residents and many nurseries in the hills and valleys that make up the Rainbow area. Geographically located within the foothills between the Santa Margarita and Aqua Tibia Mountains, the terrain is often steep and rocky which explains the sparsely populated area enjoyed by local residents.
