Situated at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains in Little Santa Anita Canyon, the area is formerly known as Carter's Camp and as Sierra Madre Canyon Park. In 1913 the Carter property was sold and subdivided into building lots. The area has maintained much of its rustic quality and many of the original summer homes are lived in year round.
