The original community of the Santa Rosa Plateau, defined by land, legacy, and lifestyle.
La Cresta is the name most commonly used to describe the Santa Rosa Plateau as a whole—a distinction earned as the first area of the Plateau to be developed in the 1960s. Its early planning established the framework for the region’s rural character, equestrian focus, and enduring appeal. Today, La Cresta remains the gateway to the Plateau and one of its most defining communities.
La Cresta encompasses approximately 5,878 acres and includes 887 individual parcels connected by more than 26 miles of private roads. Its boundary begins near the main entrance to the Santa Rosa Plateau, making it both geographically and historically central to the area.
La Cresta is governed by the La Cresta Property Owners Association (LCPOA), one of six entities that collectively form the communities of the Santa Rosa Plateau. Parcels have a minimum lot size of five acres, with some properties netting slightly less due to easements or cul-de-sac design. The scale and layout preserve long-term privacy, open space, and a consistent rural standard.
