Lake Elsinore sits in Riverside County about fifty miles southeast of Los Angeles, a natural freshwater body that has drawn people to the area for well over a century. The city of Lake Elsinore was incorporated in 1888, and the lake itself has been the anchor of the region's identity ever since—a place for swimming, boating, and fishing that transforms a Southern California valley into something closer to a mountain resort.

The lake covers approximately 3,000 acres when full, making it the largest natural freshwater lake in Southern California south of the Sierra Nevada. Visitors and residents use it for skiing, sailing, kayaking and fishing. The State of California has developed the Lake Elsinore State Recreation Area to provide public access to launches, day-use facilities and campsites along the shore. These facilities and the recreation they enable have made the lake the centerpiece of family time in the valley for generations.

For a family that has chosen to settle in Lake Elsinore because of the water and the lifestyle it offers, planning for the people who depend on you is a natural extension of that choice. Life insurance—in a term long enough to cover the years when a family would be hurt most by the loss of an income—is how that protection works. The people you name receive a fixed sum, paid free and clear, if you are not there.
