Real Estate in Castle Glen CA

Castle Glen Area Overview

Natural Surroundings

The area is a hill and some of the homes overlook the Stanfield Marsh Bird Sanctuary (also known as Baker Pond) that runs along the shoreline to the north. The sanctuary has ducks, coots and shorebirds, such as the Great Blue Heron, year-round. In the spring and fall, residents can get an awesome view of large groups of white pelicans, Canada geese and other migrating birds that make Big Bear Lake a stopover between their northern nesting areas and the Salton Sea. It is also a great place to see turkey vultures, sometimes in large flocks, as well as bald eagles.

The north side of this hill is forested with Jeffrey pine and juniper trees and has been set aside as bald eagle protected habitat. It is a good place to view the wildlife that crosses through or passes over on its way to the conservation area on the south shore of Baker Pond.
