The natural beauty of the area, exciting day trips, activities, great food and beautiful beaches should bring this location to the top of your “places to visit in California” list… if you have one. And if you don’t have that list, here is your first recommendation. Start it. Ventura can be both technically an LA location, or a Central California beach town, which makes it…

The Stables Inn Paso Robles
I’m ALWAYS down for a fun staycation idea. And since discovering San Luis Obispo County and all the amazing, wonderful, spectacular, breath-takingly beautiful, and fun cities and places to explore in the area we have been trying to rediscover the lesser known areas (for us here in So Cal) that California has to offer.
