Brea Eagle Hills Christmas Lights Neighborhood

Maybe its too soon to go? Normally there are people caroling, a station to write santa a letter and hot cocoa for sale. None of that as of yet. Still a good experience.

Beautiful, loved that people are still decorating through this whole pandemic. My little ones loved it so much.

I love all the decorated houses! Not all are decorated but there was enough . My daughter loved it! Definently my favorite place to look at Christmas lights .

Love coming here for Xmas every year! Hoping 2020 doesn’t ruin this as well ! Does anyone know if they will be doing it this year ?

Beautiful neighborhood. Not too many decorated homes. Possibly too early in season.

This neighborhood is absolutely amazing! Almost every house had elaborate Christmas displays. I loved the amount of variety in the decorations! Some had the old school light up Santa’s while others went totally modern with modern LED lights! I couldn’t put my phone down because each house was better than the last!!! I felt like a kid again and 2 hours just flew by! I highly recommended this as a family destination!!! Although adults will be thoroughly impressed as well so I highly recommend this for everyone looking to feel the holiday spirit and pure joy! This is the BEST place to go with any group!

Drove about 30 to see the Christmas decorations, a lot of the houses missed their touch but I guess pandemia changed their budget. Overall good job

Cant wait to go again this year. So lovely! The best neighbourhood in Brea!

Must see for locals,and visitors to the area. Its best to get out and walk the track of homes but you can drive through also. Dress warn if you plan on walking. There is a resident that sells hot chocolate and munchies. This neighborhood has truly captured the spirit of the holidays.Merry Christmas people! Enjoy

Not as before but still really good. Thank you for doing it year after year.

Super crowded but houses went above and beyond in decorating

So many lights at this Candy Cane Lane! The best way to experience is to park and walk round the neighborhood. You can find parking across the street in the industrial park, or there are some spots at the elementary school. When you walk around, you can hear the holiday music and some home owners sell snacks and drinks!

What a fantastic place. Lots of well organized traffic. Thanks to all of you for doing such a wonderful job year after year...

Must Do! Take the entrance on the opposite side of what Mapquest says. Just pass the line and make a right at the light and park or make a u-turn and go in that way. You can also pass the line and the light and make a u-turn and head into the neighborhood. Otherwise youll wait in line and realize you didnt have to. Very festive and fun. Will have you singing christmad Carols in you car. People had lights in their car or lit up necklaces. Worth the 29 minute drive there for us. We loved it!

A fun, free night out with a date or the family. Traffic can be very heavy, but police keep it orderly at peak times. Some people remain in their cars and patiently tour the streets in the giant convoy, others park at the nearby school and walk through the neighborhood. There are few places to see such effort put into decorations in Southern California. This neighborhood is a great place to see house decorations if you live near Orange County.

We try to come to this every year. We love the experience of walking through the neighborhood and seeing all the beautiful homes lit up in so many different ways. Gets you in that Christmas spirit for sure.The only CON is that the houses can no longer sell the cookies, churros, hot chocolate, popcorn, tamales, etc. We miss that for sure. It made the experience even better by snacking on goodies and sipping on that hot cocoa to warm your body while viewing the lights.

Great display! The neighborhood at Primrose St. and Starflower street had so many houses beautifully lit with Christmas lights. They do have display hours from 5-10 PM. I reached after that and some houses had switched it off, so plan to reach in time!

We have been coming to see the Brea CHRISTmas lights since my granddaughter was in infant. I love to see her eyes shine bright with the lovely lights. This year was extra special. We saw a live Nativity Scene. I loved how she made her way up close to see Baby Jesus.

Very fun! First time here and I had a blast!

Amazing. My nieces absolutely loved it.

It was my first time visiting here and it was entertaining. Theres the option of looking at the lights while driving, but theres a long line to enter the neighborhood. You can either park it in a neighborhood close by and walk, which is nicer I think. If you are convinced that driving is much better, there is a back entrance not many people come through so you might avoid some of the wait time to go into the neighborhood. Bring lots of warm clothing!

I have never seen light quite like this before. Very family friendly. Tons of traffic but handled well and everyone was cautious of pedestrians and other cars. The light were done wonderfully on almost every house. Its a wonderful place to bring your family during the holiday season.

Such a great experience with family and friends. Most people drive through the neighborhood but to be honest its worth it to walk it all. You get to take your time to see all the different houses where as when youre driving you feel rushed by the card behind you. Also, the kids get to see the lights up front and some houses are generous enough to display a photo op for families and kids. Its a lot of walking but so much more fun!

This is a must if you are into Christmas decoration and lights. Its best to walk so that you can take your time, see the details, enjoy all of this with all your senses. And take better pictures but I had a passenger with a broken leg so we did the bumper-to-bumper. It was still worth it.

There were seemingly endless numbers of lighted homes to see, some with residents sitting out front to watch the crowds and greet them. One home even had a live nativity scene on weekend evenings! Police monitored and directed traffic and ensured unlicensed vendors did not interrupt the fun. If youd like to see Christmas light displays, this is a great place to do it!

The weekend before Christmas is a zoo. The weekend after is much more pleasant to get around. Its best to get out of your car get a little exercise and take the time to stop and enjoy the displays. Some are quite elaborate and there is very good participation within the neighborhood, although those who dont participate make their homes look like black holes.

During the holiday season this is a great place to enjoy an evening with family!

Wonderful place to view holiday lights! I recommend parking and walking around the neighborhood.

Very beautiful place to see lights with family or loved ones

I think it would be hard to find a more dazzling display of Christmas lights in any neighborhood! The neighborhood is easy to walk, with special pedestrian paths connecting the blocks. There was even a house with a live Manger display with people in costume and a couple of real sheep! Amazing!

Best tract of Christmas light in North Orange County! Street after street of beautiful homes wonderfully decorated for the holidays. Take your time, be patient, and go slow if driving, you wont be disappointed. There are lots of folks walking so be careful!

Highly recomend to go!! It was very pretty and nice!! If u want to walk around, you should park other place and walk in to the place, unless, you will have to drive thru to take a picture. Also traffic is pretty bad, so if you want to avoid the traffic, be there around 5:30-6pm which is before dinner time.

Tis the season. This community really shines. Come one come all its truly a great experience. Especially walking around rather than driving through... Love it!

Always a great place to bring the kids

Great experience definitely will be letting my friends and family know

A great family/friends evening out.

Lived in Brea many years before moving to Yorba Linda. The Christmas lights in Eagle Hills are always awesome. Next location (tie) is Eastlake Village on the lake. Lights reflecting on the water is a site to behold. Photos are Eagle Hills

What a beautiful place... its good place to take a walk with family..

Always a great time here at Santas Route.

MAGICAL. You have to go for Christmas!!

Great community. Residents here puts up a really nice Christmas light show for anyone to drive through or walk. Great place to bring the family and get in the Xmas spirit!

It was very nice

Love this place. Lots of different themed Xmas light displays. Come here every year. Great for families or anyone who just enjoys looking at Christmas lights through their holiday season.

Best place to see the festival lights, its been crowded on the weekends. We parked near the Taekwondo center which is on Birch St & Kraemer Blvd. Its just a 10 mins walk to the place. Our family and friends enjoyed the beautiful lights.

I recommend visiting on a weekday, we went on a Wednesday and there was plenty of parking for those that like to walk the neighborhood and very little vehicular traffic.

Great neighborhood to see Christmas lights, especially with the kids. Gets very busy though and driving through can be slow. Some streets have available parking and walking through is a much better experience.Do yourself a favor and enter the neighborhood from Lambert onto Sunflower. Entering from Birch is much busier.

Awesome place to look at Christmas lights. Very walkable; most of the neighborhood has sidewalks. Plan ahead for parking as parking in the neighborhood is limited. Driving is good too, but plan for lots of traffic.

Great neighborhood, gorgeous Christmas lights and decorations. Residents going above and beyond to make it feel festive, with lights, sculptures, ornaments, and music. The only cons: parking was pretty difficult as there were so many people, and all streets were very crowded, tho everyone was nice.

The largest light display we’ve ever seen! This neighborhood was not just one street but around 10 streets. There’s a lot of cars driving all around and some streets close off when they get too full but we went on a Monday night from 8:30-10pm and the lights were all still on and plenty of people were still there until it started clearing out around 9 and the lights started turning off a few minutes before 10. We walked for a long time (in the wrong shoes- and parked a street away in the last parking spot) and we still didn’t see it all! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this incredible neighborhood to get you in the Christmas spirit. Try to find the last house at the end of a cul-de-sac that has an incredible synchronized Christmas light show ;)

Amazing !!!So many lights and decorations, a real feast for the eyes.This is by far one of the most beautiful, well organized Christmas light neighborhoods i have ever visited.It was beautiful !!

Great holiday event.highly recommend seeing at least once. Lots of walking. Can drive it, but hundreds of cars. Suggest wagons or strollers for little ones, and potty stop before starting out. Hard to find parking.

Beautifully decorated homes that amazed my kids and nephews. Heart warming memories are born here.

Really cute place to take the kids. park and walk through or drive through and stay in the warm car. either way. expect traffic

The whole neighborhood is decorated with Christmas lights, the owners of the houses are outside greeting people and selling hot chocolateThis year we found a Mistletoe three it was so cuteTotally recommend

Horrible, no traffic control

Love this place. I go every year! Candy Cane Lane is another great Christmas Lights neighborhood.

Its really pretty, & fun, but its also very busy especially on the weekends. As a resident of the neighborhood some of the people who come and visit for some reason become rude, ignorant and downright aholes. Ive heard multiple complain 4th s about how individuals refuse to stop walking or driving when a homeowner is attempting to leave their house because it inconveniences them to do so. Please, if you come through please respect the homeowners as we do this for those who like to come see it. If someone is trying to leave their driveway. Please take 5-10 seconds and let them out.

Such a great place! The neighborhood does a great job. The family loved it! You can drive around but walking is much better with better views. And it’s free!

It was so fun a the lights are so pretty. Had a good time with family.

Its really hard work of all the residents..We enjoyed a lot. Really beautiful decoration of Xmas lights.

Nice location for while streets, great job.

Great fun. Go every year. Just wish there were more synchronized displays. Thank you everyone who participates.

Very nice Christmas lights display to go see with the family, most houses participating, beatiful! Loved it!

So beautiful. Wish other neighborhoods would get together display holiday spirit like this neighborhood.

Nice Holiday atmosphere and take the time to enjoy all the hard work this community has done. Leave the rush behind, bring some hot coffee or hot chocolate, maybe some holiday cookies and walk around the decor!

This neighborhood n Brea will get u into the Christmas spirit

My daughter loved it! Very busy, lots of cars, but it was very enjoyable to see everyone decorate for the holidays

This is one of the larger collections of houses decorated for Christmas I have encountered. We really enjoyed driving ng through the neighborhood after walking the first few legs.

Beautiful Lights Every Year! Been Coming For About 3 yrs Now. Kids Love It.

Fun for dates and families. Drive through or find parking and walk along to get up close and personal. Dress warm, bring a hot coco and enjoy!

I love this place! Thank you to the community for allowing my 8-year-old and family the opportunity to experience Christmas on an entirely new level. We decided to park across the street and walk through the neighborhood with a 8-year-old, 4-year-old, and 11-month-old (each with their respective mother), and we had a blast. The 11-month-old sat in a car seat and stroller due to the cold, but wanted to sit up and see the lights. Id recommend keeping the car seat in the car, or using some other carrying mechanism so that the child is able to see better. We took hot chocolate and marshmallows in thermos and it was a success. Please pick up your trash after yourselves so that we can have more years of this awesomeness. Whether youre walking or driving, this neighborhood has a flow to the route and it is easy to navigate the neighborhood.

Interesting lighting and nice to walk or drive around like to go and visit next year as well.

The lights where nice.

Nice neighborhood. People are building amazing light symphony and Christmas mood there!

The lights in Brea are a family tradition and have been for years. They are absolutely lovely and worst driving over to see. I would highly recommend this light display.

Lots of neat decorated houses- good entertainment for families with children and good for couples. It is About 10 blocks of the track neighborhoods -good exercise if you choose to take a brisk walk or you can Drive throughout the streets. Drive slowly as many families chose to walk. Dont stop because of chances or getting rear-ended. Dont park on driveways. Parking (especially) for big vehicles is located in the elementary school near by. The only thing I suggest is: Keep moving!!! wether your driving or walking- dont be rude and stop foot traffic and dont stop your vehicles. High amounts of foot traffic and vehicles, its rude to stop in the middle of walkways- MOVE aside if you choose to stop.Other than the occasional rudeness of people stopping its great entertainment at no cost. They do this for Halloween and Christmas. Love the spirits of these homeowners!

A lot of fun and definitely have the Christmas spirit but the traffic was a bit crazy because of the amount of people that were in there

Just a beautiful neighborhood with exquisite displays. Its a bit of walking to do the whole thing and parking can be tough especially on weekends closer to Christmas.

My grandkids love this place with all the lights and decorations highly recommend people to take their kids hair

Love going here every year with my family. Whether its driving around the neighborhood because of bad weather out strolling around, weve made it a family tradition!

Get there early and drive around, or park at Olunda school and do the short walk in. Great for families.

Gets pretty crowded but its sll really beautiful and very fun.

Only complaint is that its crowded, as expected with a whole neighborhood light show, kids will love it and highly recommend to bring the kids. Although, there were a few scrooge homes that didnt participate but I dont know theyre circumstances so its fine, theres more houses that participate then not. If you come to see these lights make sure you come from the Lambert/carbon canyon aide, not from 57 fwy side, shorter wait coming from Lambert/carbon canyon side. Overall, its cool, not the best but its something cool for the kids to see. Happy Holidays everyone!

LOL... never new this would be the result.... been going there for 30 years... now I take my kids... always nice!!! Go during the week to see the lights... come during the weekend, park across the street and walk to get the full experience...

Really great place to take your entire family for a walk and enjoy the Christmas really beautiful

Every year I visit this neighborhood. It is really like a fairy land.

One of the best Christmas light decorated neighborhoods that Ive been too.

Great family time. Very nice people in the neighborhood. Festive... Took the dog along for a nice long walk. Advice to everyone. It gets busy, dont be lazy and drive around. Walk it!!!

Beautiful light displays. A wonderful holiday tradition!

This neighborhood is fantastic!! It was so much fun to take a walk with the family and see so many houses decorated with lights, nativity scenes, and blow-up decorations from various movies! There were even some families that sold cups of coffee or hot cider for you to sip while walking around, and it was delicious! Great family outing for an evening :)

Always fun to see all the Christmas cheer down in lights and decorations. Usually quite crowded on the weekends. You can easily sounds two hours or more strolling through these community streets. Often youll find groups selling treats or hot cocoa/cider. Beware: there are no public restrooms.

Thanks to the generous hearted people who decorate their houses every year.

Love taking my kids and watch all these beautiful homes with Christmas house decorations

Amazing and Im going back tomorrow to finish the other round

Nice Neighborhood I really recommend going here people work so hard on these lights to show off to people but it might get a little chilly over here at night

I visited this place for the first time last Christmas and I was really impressed not only with the lights/decorations, but with the overall organization. While the area was very crowded, it never seemed very overwhelming thanks to the diligent work of the Police. I do suggest, however, going with time and wearing comfortable clothes/shoes as it can be difficult to find parking.

Waauu beautiful place..a lot of christmas decoration houses

It was ok it didnt have as many lights as the reviews stated only some of the houses were really decorated if more lights decorated on the homes would have given more stars but it was still nice to drive thru.

Awesome! Great lights and occasionally live performances (not always). Just plan to walk slowly in a crowd.

Nice area was here as a kid when it was just oil wells and a shooting range. How times have changed
