The Oasis & Menifee
This page is the neighborhood guide for 28279 Long Meadow Dr: the gated 55+ community, the 36-hole course next door, and the Menifee conveniences minutes away.
The community
The Oasis at a glance
The Oasis is one of Menifee's established gated 55+ communities, built mostly from 1999 to 2005 with detached, single-story ranch-style homes. The home at 28279 Long Meadow Dr sits at the edge of the Menifee Lakes Country Club, where the lake, fairways, and mature trees are the everyday backdrop.
For many buyers the appeal is as much social as it is physical: single-story living, resort-style recreation, an extensive club calendar, and a location wrapped around a 36-hole golf course.
