Hidden Valley Lake Association

What Hidden Valley Lake Association does

Hidden Valley Lake Association (HVLA) is a California mutual benefit nonprofit corporation and homeowners association that governs and operates the Hidden Valley Lake gated community in Lake County, California, headquartered at 18174 Hidden Valley Road. The organization serves property owners and residents of the community, providing a comprehensive suite of services including gate access control and security, environmental control and architectural review, amenity operations (an 18-hole golf course with pro shop, Greenview Bar & Grill restaurant, lake/beaches/marina, equestrian center and stables, pool, tennis and pickleball courts, campground, parks, and a community center), and member communications. Day-to-day operations are led by General Manager Ray Villar and a staff of approximately 21 named personnel across administration, accounting, environmental control, food and beverage, golf, security, fleet and general maintenance, IT, HR, and media/marketing functions.

The Association's core technology is the FRONTSTEPS HOA management software platform, which powers a member-facing web portal offering single sign-on for event registrations, dining reservations, online assessment payments, a Resource Center for governing documents (bylaws, CC&Rs, board meeting packets), and community news. Marketing and member outreach are conducted through the website (hvla.com), a Facebook page, the Greenview Restaurant Facebook page, the monthly Views Magazine newsletter, and the Nixle emergency alert system.

HVLA generates revenue primarily through mandatory recurring member assessments (dues) tied to a 7-digit Unit Billing Account (UBL) per property, supplemented by amenity and food and beverage revenue from the Greenview Bar & Grill, banquet/event rentals, golf, equestrian, and other on-site facilities. Specific assessment rates and total revenue are not publicly disclosed. The Association is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors elected by homeowner members, is not backed by venture capital or private equity, and has earned consecutive Firewise USA certifications (2022-2023 and 2023-2024) for wildfire preparedness.
