About Silverado

The Silverado area (92676) encompasses an expansive area comprising Portola Hills, the town of Silverado, Modjeska and Santiago Canyons as well the beautiful Irvine Lake. The canyons and foothills throughout this area are home to abundantly diverse unspoiled flora and fauna including foxes, coyotes or the occasional mountain lion.

Most of the land east of the canyons is protected as "Cleveland National Forest" comprising three ranger districts spanning almost four-hundred thousand acres across Orange and Riverside counties; offering southern California's popular year-around outdoor recreation destination while simultaneously protecting critical watersheds. Nearby roads through these mountains including "Rim of the World" and "Palms to Pines" Scenic Byways offer impressive panoramic views and historical sites including a pre-historic seasonal Indian village. "Whiting Ranch" or "Limestone Canyon" is a locally popular four thousand plus acre county wilderness reservation comprising thickly forested oak lined canyons steeply descending into rolling grassland terrain.

Silverado was renamed from first designation branding the area as: "Timber Canyon," (Cañada de la Madera) for its remarkably similar resemblance to namesake Spainsh town. Mining boomtown "Silverado" thrived from 1878 through 1881 when silver veins were discovered in the canyon and residents were served by regularly operated stagecoach service from Los Angeles via Santa Ana. The area would experience a brief revitalization in the 1940's as a hot springs retreat during which numerous cabins were built, standing to this day and serving as homes for several local craftsmen and artists. Silverado today retains an elementary school; a public library; a church; a general store; a restaurant; two fire stations; and a post office. Silverado proudly hosts annual "Country Fair" as well "Easter breakfast" to the delight of residents.

Modjeska Canyon remains rural with no commercial businesses except a propane company, situated in what was formerly a tiny general store. Modjeska is famous for Poland's most revered Shakespearean actress of the nineteenth century, Madame Helena Modjeska who came here in 1876 with her husband, Count Bozenta. One dozen years later in 1888, renowned architect Stanford White designed an elegant canyon house for Madame and Count here where extensive lush gardens named "Arden," aptly named for the bard's forest in "As You Like It," growing olive trees, palms, crown of thorns, English yews and white lilac.

"Portola Hills," just south of Modjeska Canyon, has more than six thousand residents across approximately fourteen neighborhoods enjoying tremendous amenities at two separate club houses providing epicurean residents with pools, tennis, volleyball and basketball courts as well gyms and a children's playground.

Santiago Canyon serves as the primary gateway to Baker, Black Star, Silverado, Williams and Modjeska Canyons and is managed by the Irvine Company Conservancy conducting tours of the area. Hikers here marvel at the panoramic views of "natural" Orange County featuring oak and sycamore groves on rolling hills and rugged peaks through which Santiago Creek meanders.

"St. Michael's" Prepatory Academy near Silverado private college preparatory boys' secondary boarding school offering a rigorous college prep, honors and advanced placement curriculum prepared the by Norbertine Fathers of St. Michael's Abbey. A limited enrollment of only sixty-four pupils ensures every graduate receives the strongest pillars of academia, faith and character possible as the Catholic Arch-Diocese of Orange here seeks to inculcate upon students.

Over the last ten years, new neighborhoods and developments reaching from nearby Rancho Santa Margarita, Lake Forest and Irvine are encroaching upon the canyons as a telling sign of development to come. However, this impressive area will remain bucolic for dozens of years on. Imminently, The Irvine Company has proposed two neighborhoods including seventeen hundred homes on five hundred acres alongside both sides of the Foothill Toll Road (Route 241) and second development of more than twenty four hundred homes on more than one-thousand acres overlooking Irvine Lake.
