Seminole Springs: Malibu’s Best-Kept Secret

Tucked into the Santa Monica Mountains just fifteen minutes from the coast, Seminole Springs is one of Malibu’s best-kept secrets. It’s peaceful, affordable (by Malibu standards), and full of charm — a mountain community with an unmistakably local, down-to-earth feel.

For buyers looking to live near Malibu without the seven-figure space rent, Seminole Springs offers something extraordinary: true ownership, community connection, and panoramic canyon beauty.

🌿 The Setting

Seminole Springs is located just off Mulholland Highway, in the rolling hills between Malibu and Agoura. It’s surrounded by oak trees, trails, and wildflowers, with a private lake at its heart.

After the 2018 Woolsey Fire, many homes in the park were rebuilt — resulting in a stunning mix of modern architecture and vintage charm. The new homes feature open layouts, high-end finishes, and wraparound decks with sweeping mountain views.

It’s not uncommon to see neighbors chatting by the lake, kids riding bikes, or evening gatherings on decks under string lights.

🏠 The Ownership Difference

Unlike Paradise Cove or Point Dume Club, where you lease the land beneath your home, Seminole Springs operates as a resident-owned co-op.

That means homeowners own shares in the park itself, rather than renting space. You’ll pay a monthly HOA fee instead of space rent — typically between $800 and $1,200 per month — which covers community maintenance, landscaping, and amenities.

This makes Seminole Springs one of the most stable and affordable ownership models in the Malibu area.

💫 Amenities & Community

Despite its lower price point, Seminole Springs doesn’t skimp on quality of life. The park offers:
•    A private lake with picnic areas and walking paths
•    Clubhouse with billiards, library, and fitness room
•    Pool and spa
•    Playground and basketball court
•    Community events, farmers markets, and holiday gatherings

The atmosphere is relaxed, creative, and community-driven — a blend of Malibu’s natural beauty and small-town warmth.

💵 Pricing Overview

Homes in Seminole Springs typically range from $600,000 to $1 million, depending on size, view, and construction year.

While inland from the beach, the park’s affordability and co-op model make it one of the most strategic investments in the Malibu region. Many buyers use it as a first step into Malibu real estate or as a peaceful second home.
