SaddleBrooke is a large master-planned retirement community built by Robson Communities that features country-club style living with two championship golf courses, two clubhouses and activity centers and some of the best views of the Catalina mountains in the area.

Since SaddleBrooke first broke ground in 1986, more than 3,000 homes have been built there with another 1,000 planned. Another large Robson community is planned just to the north of SaddleBrooke that will be called SaddleBrooke Ranch. More than 6,000 homes are planned for both families and retirees.

A little farther to the north and bending around the northern edge of the mountains is Columbia University’s Biosphere 2 Center, one of the largest living laboratories in the world. The 250-acre campus includes a 27-room hotel and conference center, shops, a visitor center and the 3.15-acre Biosphere facility. The Biosphere 2 Center is open seven days a week.
