2026 Guide: San Diego Country Estates HOA Fees & Amenities
By Scott Hodge, Broker/Owner of Homeport Residential
If you are considering moving to Ramona, the San Diego Country Estates (SDCE) is likely at the top of your list. Known for its "backcountry" charm mixed with resort-style living, it’s a unique community that offers a lifestyle you won't find in the city.
What are the 2026 SDCE HOA fees?
As of January 1, 2026, the San Diego Country Estates HOA fees are $195 per month. This is a slight increase from the previous rate of $175, designed to ensure the continued maintenance and improvement of our extensive community assets.
What do your HOA fees cover?
Living in the "Estates" means having a playground in your backyard. Your monthly dues provide access to a massive array of amenities, including:
-
Equestrian Facilities: Two fully equipped equestrian centers (the International Equestrian Center and Casey Tibbs Western Center) with boarding, training, and miles of dedicated riding trails.
-
Aquatics & Recreation: Two large swimming pools, multiple community parks, and specialized courts for tennis and pickleball.
-
Golf & Dining: The award-winning San Vicente Golf Course and the popular Par Lounge & Deck, which serves as the community's social hub for dinner, drinks, and mountain views.
-
Community Events: Quarterly craft fairs and a full schedule of "Concerts in the Park" throughout the spring and summer months.
Why choose San Diego Country Estates?
As a local broker and a resident of the area, I see firsthand why so many families choose SDCE. It’s about the balance of a quiet, rural lifestyle with the security and amenities of a high-end managed community. Whether you’re looking for a home with horse property or a quiet spot overlooking the fairways, the Estates has something for everyone.
