From the California Resort Life web site:
Lake Hughes California (pop 649) and the adjacent communities of Lake Elizabeth and Green Valley are all in the eastern branch of the Sierra Pelona Mountains overlooking Antelope Valley from the west. It lies within the area of Angeles National Forest.
1907 saw major activity in the area with the construction of a giant tunnel for the Los Angeles Aquaduct. In 1924, CA Austin first promoted this region as a summer resort because of its abundant water supply. A brand new local post office was dedicated by President Bush in 1989. Celebrities Roy Rogers and Dale Evans acquired a home here in 1947.
