Eastlake is the master-planned community that first pushed Chula Vista east of Interstate 805, graded starting in the mid-1980s by the EastLake Development Company on what a 1992 San Diego Reader account described as a roughly 3,000-acre project. The community grew around a series of man-made lakes and the golf course neighborhood of EastLake Greens, annexed by the city in 1989. Today Eastlake is anchored by EastLake High School and the EastLake Business Park along Otay Lakes Road. Gibraltar manages Eastlake rentals with the same flat, transparent fee we bring to every Chula Vista property.
Why Eastlake Owners Choose Gibraltar
Before the EastLake Development Company began grading in the mid-1980s, paleontologists were called in to excavate the site, and what they found made news well beyond Chula Vista: a February 1985 dig turned up one of the richest fossil deposits in California, a roughly 40 to 50 million-year-old Eocene collection that included early bats, rodents, primates, tapirs, and camels, now held by the San Diego Natural History Museum. That history is a reminder of how much land Eastlake represents, a roughly 3,000-acre master plan that reshaped the eastern half of the city.
EastLake Greens, the 830-acre golf course neighborhood the city annexed in 1989, is built around the 18-hole EastLake Country Club, designed by Ted Robinson and opened in 1991, along with a 15-acre lake and a freshwater swimming lagoon from the community's first phase. That water-oriented design is still what distinguishes Eastlake rentals from other Chula Vista master plans: homes back onto lakes, greenbelts, or golf fairways rather than open canyon, and tenants pay attention to that view when comparing listings. The nearby EastLake Business Park along Otay Lakes Road adds a built-in tenant pool of local employees.
EastLake High School opened in September 1992 on Eastlake Parkway and now enrolls roughly 3,100 students under the Sweetwater Union High School District, giving the community one of the more established school anchors in eastern Chula Vista. Families renting in Eastlake are frequently choosing the neighborhood specifically for that school pipeline, along with the lakes, golf course, and business park that give the area a finished, amenity-rich feel other newer Chula Vista communities are still growing into. Gibraltar prices and markets Eastlake rentals with that established-community premium in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions — Eastlake Property Management
What makes Eastlake different from other Chula Vista communities?
+
Eastlake was Chula Vista's original large-scale master plan, graded starting in the mid-1980s around man-made lakes and the EastLake Greens golf course. That water- and golf-oriented design, plus an established high school and business park, give Eastlake a finished, amenity-rich feel that newer eastern Chula Vista communities are still building toward.
Were fossils really found where Eastlake was built?
+
Yes. A February 1985 dig ahead of grading turned up one of California's richest fossil deposits, a 40 to 50 million-year-old Eocene collection including early bats, camels, and primates. The fossils are held by the San Diego Natural History Museum, and the discovery remains one of the more unusual footnotes in Chula Vista's development history.
What schools serve Eastlake rentals?
+
EastLake High School, which opened in 1992 on Eastlake Parkway, serves the community under the Sweetwater Union High School District, alongside the Chula Vista Elementary School District for younger grades. The high school's long tenure in the neighborhood is one reason family tenants specifically target Eastlake listings.
