Hobergs is an unincorporated community in Lake County, California.[1] It grew up around the former Hoberg's Resort.

Description[edit]

Hobergs is a residential-resort community in the Cobb Mountain area.[2] It is 2.25 miles (3.6 km) north-northwest of Whispering Pines,[3] at an elevation of 3,015 feet (919 m).[1]

The federal candidate endangered species Rincon Ridge ceanothus (Ceanothus confusus) is found at Hobergs.[4] The subdivision is served by the Middletown Unified School District, with grades K-6 attending Cobb Elementary School and higher grades attending schools in Middletown.[5] Hobergs has a small local commercial center.[6]
