Dos Lagos is a master-planned community in Corona defined by its Mediterranean architecture and central lakes. It provides residents with high walkability and exceptional dog friendliness, though the area experiences moderate noise levels due to its proximity to major highway traffic.
Key Highlights

Situated in Corona’s Temescal Valley, the master-planned neighborhood of Dos Lagos is built on land rich in pioneering and industrial history. Located near the 1860s Temescal Tin Mines and the historic Butterfield Stagecoach Route, the site operated as a highly productive silica sand mine from the early 1900s until its closure in the mid-1970s. After sitting abandoned for nearly thirty years, the blighted mining pits were reclaimed in the early 2000s. They were filled to create two central lakes—the neighborhood's namesake—and transformed into a sustainable, mixed-use community. Completed in 2006, Dos Lagos features Mediterranean-inspired architecture, a signature 120-foot bamboo-covered pedestrian bridge, and the Shops at Dos Lagos. The innovative project earned the U.S. Green Building Council's first-ever LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED-ND) designation.
The neighborhood serves as a distinct mixed-use hub within the Temescal Valley, blending residential life with accessible commercial amenities. According to iHuus data, the area stands out for its pedestrian-friendly design, which allows residents to reach local retail and dining options at the Shops at Dos Lagos without relying on a vehicle. The landscape is characterized by its intentional layout, which integrates natural water features with modern suburban infrastructure, creating a unique environment compared to the surrounding parts of Corona.
Living in this area involves balancing high-quality school access through the Corona-Norco Unified School District with specific environmental considerations. While the neighborhood offers a convenient lifestyle, prospective residents should be aware of the acoustic environment influenced by nearby transit corridors. Additionally, while the community benefits from robust health insurance coverage, it is important to note the regional challenges regarding fire safety common to this part of California. It is an ideal setting for those who prioritize a walkable, pet-friendly environment and proximity to established educational resources.
