Known as the Residential Hilltown, this area is located directly above the historic hotel, Esther Williams swimming pool, and the proposed new health spa, and is directly below the geologic “arrowhead” imprint on the mountainside. Since the “hilltown” site is at a higher elevation than the historic hotel, it offers spectacular views both to the west to the Inland Empire and to the east, up the Strawberry Creek canyon. The site is protected from public access, therefore, giving the residential hilltown a private,
secure, and quiet environment. Nestled on the slopes of the San Bernardino Mountains at an elevation of approximately 2000 feet at the lowest, the residential units will be clustered around an existing chapel, outdoor theater, and historic hot springs. All units are within easy walking distance of the historic hotel, new conference center, and new health spa resort.
