Cocos Fire, originally known as the Twin Oaks Fire,[3] was a wildfire that ignited on May 14, 2014 in San Marcos, California, in the hills south of California State University, San Marcos.[4] The Cocos Fire quickly spread into western Escondido. The fire destroyed more than 40 buildings, including a dozen single-family homes.[5] The Harmony Grove Spiritualist Association, a 13-acre spiritualist retreat founded in 1896, was particularly hard hit;[6] most of the buildings and residences on the property were destroyed, and the association's president said, "We're pretty much wiped out."[7] Property damage from the fire is estimated at more than $5.7 million. Three minor injuries have been reported.[2] The Cocos Fire was the last of the May 2014 wildfires in San Diego County to be extinguished, with full containment on May 22, 2014.[1]
