Welcome to Lakeside
Surrounding Communities: La Mesa, Spring Valley, El Cajon, Santee, San Carlos, NavajoArea Map
At the time the El Cajon Valley Land Company began to promote Lakeside as a town site in 1886, there were few inhabitants in the area. It was 1859 when the Ames family moved into the Los Coches area. There was the Pedrorena Rancho near what is now the center of town. In 1869, the Ferry Ranch house was constructed in Lakeside Farms and the Ben Hill house was built on what is now Willow Road and Wildcat Canyon Road. Other ranchers moved into the area -- the Kuhners in 1881, the Philbrooks in the early 1880's. Although construction of the Flume was in progress in 1883, it wasn't completed until 1889 and the only means for watering gardens and small orchards was windmills.
