Rainbow Valley (California)

Rainbow Valley is a small valley in Riverside County and San Diego County in the U.S. state of California. Rainbow is located there.

The area was previously known as Vallecitos ("little valley") and was renamed Rainbow Valley in the late 1880s after James Peebles Marshall Rainbow, who bought a homestead there.[1][2]
