The plaque says, "This spring and the sycamore trees mark the area of an adobe house and outbuilding built in the 1*40s by Jose Serrano, whose Rancho Canada de los Alisos stretched to the north. Within a short distance were the two adobes of Juan Avila's Rancho Niguel, which extended to the south. The stage road, following the old Spanish "El Camino Real," passed between the two haciendas. This glen was a welcome stop for travelers."
Group that erected the marker: Orange County Board of Supervisors, Orange County Historical Commission, and Saddleback Area Historical Society
