Special note:
Regarding the NWOS proposed future developments…CHAC totally opposes the “Red Tail Acquisitions” proposed “glamping” development. Appears this project nothing more than a “glorified” campground facility.
However, CHAC 100% supports the Jim Adams “Capistrano Vineyards” proposed development. This proposed project promises to complement the richly layered history of San Juan Capistrano. CHAC feels this project would greatly enhance the NWOS and would be an “inviting welcome” to the northerly entrance to SJC.

A campground with Airstream trailers and safari tents for glamping could make use of an empty 65-acre property along the 5 Freeway in San Juan Capistrano that historically was one of the first Native American settlements in Orange County.
Envisioned by the real estate investment firm Red Tail Acquisitions is The Orchards, a 40-acre campground that would also offer cabins, cottages, and spaces for RVs. The site, the city’s Northwest Open Space, would also have equestrian trails, a recreational center and potentially a community park for local residents. And the city could still build a long-discussed park honoring the history of the Acjachemen Nation in the region.
