A 180-acre, 890-unit masterplan residential community located in Northern Fontana, CA, Gabion Ranch highlights the history of the area with a vineyard- theme, complemented with a lush vineyard, wine barrel accents, and citrus orchards throughout. Sitescapes designed a community so to stand out from the other planned communities by recognizing what makes North Fontana unique. Gabion Ranch incorporates the adjacent mountain colors in its perimeter wall, used natural gravel as groundcover to simulate the natural desert floor and gabion cages filled with angular rocks that complement the natural hue and jagged forms of the surroundings creating a unique “sense of place”.

Amenities include 3 private rec areas, 6 public parks and 1 dog park totaling 12 acres. The lavish rec area for entertaining includes an outdoor kitchen and ample seating area as well as a relaxing beach-entry resort-style pool, sunken pool deck and raised spa. The vineyard theme continues here with a wine barrel-themed elevated lounge with an internal fire pit.

Exciting features within the parks include two multi-level play areas with slides built onto a slope, splash pad, zip line, obstacle course, half-court basketball, amphitheater, open turf areas, picnic areas with BBQs, and “oasis” spaces located throughout the community to provide various surprise seating nodes. Gabion Ranch also boasts a huge 4-acre dog park that has 2 separate enclosed areas with a frisbee golf overlay for small and big dogs, respectively.
