San Clemente State Beach

3 lists 
Public beach
Outdoor Activities
San Clemente State Beach is a scenic coastal location boasting a mile-long sandy beach that sits beneath a steep cliff, providing picturesque views and strong breezes. The beach is rocky and rugged, offering limited space for sunbathing and swimming but ideal for camping, hiking, fishing, bonfires, and surfing. Families with children can enjoy the relatively calm waters while taking in the stunning vistas.
Great camping sites but bathrooms need more attention. Would be nice if they were cleaned at 6am instead of a later time. I went to use them in the morning and it was not cleaned from the day before.
Joe F — Google review
One of the best camping site with full RV hookups and awesome view of the Pacific Ocean!!! Very dark evenings allowing for perfect view of all the constellations..on full moons, its so bright you don’t need a flash light to hike to the beach. Shore fishing is great as they have grunions runs, plenty of sandcrab bait, and super secluded beach. Wave are mesuim awesome for surfing and boogie boarding. Great plac to have family parties until 10pm.

Beautiful & clean! We camped here for 4 days & 3 nights. The view is remarkable. There's is a path that takes you right down to the ocean. It is a VERY steep path! It was a little tricky getting down & especially so coming back up! The campsite is clean with a fire pit and covered picnic bench at each site. There are multiple bathrooms & pay to use showers that are well maintained on the grounds.
Traci P — Google review
Love this place, so close to home, but it feels like you're somewhere else. The beach is beautiful. The campgrounds are clean and well-maintained, including the restrooms and showers. You have plenty of room between yourself and your neighbors. We look forward to coming here each and every time. The rail trail is a beautiful and flat walk to the San Clemente pier and even further north if you like. I've been here six times and look forward to returning each and every time. So many great places to eat and visit nearby as well. *10/13/2024 update* Simply my favorite place to camp. They do an outstanding job keeping it clean and in good condition. The sunsets are not to be missed. My favorite trip is always my next one to San Clemente.
Robert P — Google review
Close to San Clemente Pier. The park was good with enough space between sites. It's a beach environment so it's not lush green grass. The beach itself is a 15-20 min walk down a fairly steep hill. There is a lot to do in San Clemente, including the pier, breweries, etc.
Bryan S — Google review
Pretty cool camp ground. With a short walk down to beach. Although the walk could be somewhat hard for some people, and definitely not wheelchair accessible due to the fact that it's a bit of a decline walking path down, which ends at the metrolink train track which you have to cross to get to the beach. But the camp ground has a spectacular view from the top of the walking path before the decline which is a huge open plato with picnic benches placed all around with trees for shade. Great fir large groups or for many small groups. The beach was clean and their were life guards on duty. But make sure to pay attention to the red flags when deciding on your spot because red flag means rocks which let me tell you, IT MEANS ROCKS! like big boulders that are only visible when waves revise bak for only a moment until another waves comes in and crashes over it. And beside them the waves crash right at shore creating a huge trench full of tons of rocks so your legs get beat up for sure. and you cannot swim where the flags are because it's very difficult to get pass the rocky trench since it's again wherr the waves crash. So from my experience it's not the best beach to go swimming at. But if your surfing or boogie boarding maybe it's more fit for that. Also I don't know how it was in other areas where there wasn't a red flag. I'm sure much better. I'd definitely return here again to find out!

A pretty long walk down to the beach be prepared a wagon helps! There is campground for overnight stays. It costs to park but we'll worth it. Fairly clean, only a few rocks and very little seaweed. Overall great beach!
Don S — Google review
We camped in October 2023 on a Friday and Saturday. The campground has a great family vibe. The beach was quiet. My girls loved doing the Junior Ranger program. The historic cottage/gift shop is adorable. Such nice people who work there. Loved having a pergola for our tent site. The bluffs and beach are stunning.

Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens

Mentioned on 
43 lists 
Arts organization
Nature & Parks
Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens is a historic home and garden located in San Clemente, California. Built in 1927 by architect Carl Lindbloom for the city's founder, Ole Hanson, this Spanish-style estate offers a tangible journey back in time. The property features seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and is surrounded by five acres of beautifully landscaped gardens with ocean views.
This is an absolutely beautiful experience. I have been here for both public and private events and every time has proven to be a memorable experience. The Casa itself is beautiful, the encaustic tiles have got to be one of my favorite features (the terrace view is at the top of the list as well) The staff are knowledgeable, the gardens are lovely and the events have been great. Wine tasting and the mariachi night as well as the tea are my favorites. Visit the Casa and enjoy.
Rena B — Google review
This is a must-see if you want to understand the history (good and bad!) of San Clemente. It’s within walking distance of the train station (San Clemente Pier); just be prepared for an uphill climb. The garden was closed due to a landslide that happened last year, but we hope to come back when it’s restored.
Susy B — Google review
Cute cultural center. Helped us kills some time before check in. $8 per person. Great overview of the pier and beach. Butterfly area had actual butterflies flying around. Learning some San clamente history was great!
Trish W — Google review
A quaint Spanish-colonial style garden/museum. Unfortunately, some of the exhibits were temporarily closed due construction/renovations but I’m sure they were just as lovely as the rest. I brought my grandparents to get a taste of San Clemente’s history through their museum and to enjoy lunch with a gorgeous view of the ocean’s horizon. The staff members are extraordinarily friendly and amicable; they deserve a raise! We will definitely be back to explore the rest of the exhibits when everything is finished.
Randy — Google review
Most gardens are closed due to renovation which can be seen from the beach. The museum is great! They have a portion dedicated to local artists so that’s actually worth the $6 entry. Free parking.

Pechanga Resort Casino

Mentioned on 
33 lists 
Resort hotel
Casinos & Gambling
Nestled in Temecula wine country, Pechanga Resort Casino is a top-tier AAA four-diamond hotel and one of the largest casino resorts in the US. Situated near old town Temecula and renowned wineries, it offers modern rooms, a rooftop nightclub, diverse dining options, and an award-winning golf course. The resort boasts an outdoor pool, full-service spa, shopping center, and access to local attractions.
Amazingly clean and friendly atmosphere in the main lobbies, restaurants and resort areas. Rooms in the resort tower were modern, comfortable and immaculate! Great views of the golf course and local hills. THE ONLY DOWN SIDE in their local Gas Station no longer sells Navajo Tacos (aka Indian Tacos). I’ll be honest in that my enthusiasm to visit this resort has lessened after they switched to chicken sandwiches. Now the next best place to get this Native delicacy is hundreds of miles and a state border crossing away. #sadface

I went for a concert, I was sooooo happy south this intimate venue. The staff was super helpful with directions, attentive, aaaaaaand looked happy to be there! I learned a lot at the resort... - they have parking near whatever you're trying to do. Great tip to call and find out before you go - did you know that Pechanga pays out 98% of their earnings! (Um, for those in the back, that means they pay you the most. For reference, Vegas pays about 75%) - did you know that a lot of the tribe works there, interns there, and participate participate - did you know that Pechanga is a group of Native American tribes that we're pushed there from the coast? - did you know that they used insight from Disney folks to build the resort for input on layout and sorts? - take a look at the awesome historical content they have there, it's really beautiful and brought in by families or donated by museums and collectors to the rightful tribes. - pro tip, they have a convenience store and gas station south of the resort before you head out. Way more economical! - did you know that professional athlete teams practice and train there? They have such a variety of entertainment and gaming there, just truly enjoy it!
Diva R — Google review
I love it here. They have at least 14 bubble craps machines, and at least 6 crapless craps machines, which is my favorite game; compare that to Aria in Vegas which only has 3 on their floor. The service is better as well - the staff genuinely seems happy to be there and it reflects onto me as a guest. The rooms are a great value and very quiet. The restaurants are fantastic. I had my honeymoon here and we had the best time. The pool is wonderful! My only con is the waterslide drops into 3.5 feet of water and last time I rode it I hit my foot on the bottom and had a limp for about 3 weeks. Wish that was deeper.
Bryan — Google review
I have seen many ads on this resort and went to have a weekend getaway. I stayed at the resort tower, the room is new or they maintain it very well. The casino has a lot of machines and tables for players. There are restaurants in the property that very convenient for your stay. I attended the tacos and tequila festival and it was so fun!! It’s nice to see so many vendors and try out new food.

I had a HORRID experience with Pechanga Hotel. I rent beach and baby equipment rental items. I deliver and pickup items such as strollers, carseats, cribs etc that parents rent when traveling with kids. On Friday Oct 17, I called the Pechanga front desk and asked to speak with the bell desk. I asked permission to leave an item for the customer and gave the customers name and dates. I was given a yes by the bell desk that day, that on Sat the 18, I had permission to leave the item for the customer. I believe the bell captain who gave the go ahead was Thomas. I showed up on Saturday and was immediately "greeted" by an old white very rotund male security guard outside, who must've had his cheerios pissed in, because he was insanely disrespectful when I tried to ask for help on where the proper place to temporarily park was. He ended up continuing to be curt with me and I had to go ask someone else for help because he clearly was too distraught to even do his job. I arrived at 11am on Saturday and spoke with the bellman who took the item for me and the item was delivered to the customers room. At this time on Sat, no one told me anything, and everything seemed to go smoothly. Fast forward to Sunday morning at 10am, the customer went to return the item to the front desk and was told that it's against their policy to hold any items because I'm a third party. They gave the customer no solution and refused to help them. The ladies I spoke to on the phone (I believe Bea and Sabrina were 2 of the bell desk workers and the bell captain working Sunday at 10am was also very unhelpful). I personally called and asked what they expected the customer to do with the item until I could arrive to pickup and they couldn't even come up with a solution. Here's the issue, I requested permission in advance and was told they allow it. That tells me that there is a great miscommmunication between their team and that I'm sure this isn't the first time a customer has had to deal with their negligence. It's appaling that they tried to blame the customer for something that was the bell desks own fault. This is a pathetic way to run business and I hope someone takes notice and fixes these issues. I will never recommend anyone to stay at this hotel.

Really nice experience last night here at Pechanga resort and casino. My buddy and I went to eat Kelsey's, had a great meal there. Then we went gambling and y'all can never complain when you win It was my first time here and certainly will not be the last time I come in. The better question, what took me so long?
Alexander B — Google review
When I’m in the area, I only stay at Pechanga. Rooms in the casino tower have been great. Clean clean clean! Hotel. I would give the hotel 5 stars if it was easier to self park and bring your luggage to the hotel, but the valet is cool and lets you park close in order to check in. No five stars because they wanted $100 to (maybe) have an early check in room. I guess if I were a high roller, maybe they would allow for early check in without a big cost; I know other casino- based hotels do the same thing- doesn’t mean I have to like it. LOL. . The food at the pool was marginal, but the pool area was clean and secure! I give the total experience 4.5 stars. Why stay anywhere else when you’re in the area??!! In my opinion, Pechanga has a better property layout than Morongo. Stay at Pechanga! Housekeeping great. Front desk hospitality was fine. Restaurants good, and lots of choices. Smoke-free casino, a big plus! They do have a smoking section on the upper level and behind glass doors, you never smell it.

HIGH-QUALITY PERFORMANCES! The Old Town Temecula Community Theater is outstanding! Each event I’ve attended here has been fun and enjoyable. I’ve seen play productions, concerts, and recently the Annual Jazz Festival! The seats are SO comfortable here and there’s plenty of ramps for disabled guests. The volunteers and staff are very welcoming and helpful. The venue is intimate which allows each seat to provide a great view! The theater seats have a lot of leg room. There’s upstairs seating, but it’s limited. You can also find a small balcony section on each upper side of the theater, however, they’re also limited in space. Most seats will be found at the bottom level. The theater’s box office can be found in the neighboring venue, The Merc. Additionally, the theater has a set of restrooms across from it and a snack shop that has wine, soda. candy and other goodies. The venue is family friendly and has a great atmosphere. Being in the heart of Old Town Temecula, one has several food options before and after an event as there’s many restaurants and bars nearby! I have an appreciation for this theater as they really reach out to the community and tickets aren’t overpriced!
Lorenzo W — Google review
Most wonderful Theater!! Such a treasure and such an enrichment for the community in this town!! Great selections of shows as well! I've seen several shows there myself AND also performed there myself with the local Southwest Women's Chorus (look us up OR join!). The acoustics are superb, the staff is so friendly and helpful. The shows reach from performances of non-local artists to performances of local artist. Variety of shows are great! Really one of the best venues in the whole Temecula Valley! I recommend to buy tickets ahead of time because shows can sell out very quickly. Definitely give this Theater a visit!!
N P — Google review
Small venue, but that is a good thing. We sat in the balcony. Interestingly, the balcony is just one row of seats. That makes egress and access difficult. But the center seats in the balcony have the best view, so tripping over your neighbors is worth it!
John S — Google review
Saw Led Zepagain here and it was a great venue! Sound & lighting were were really good. Seating was comfortable. There were no signs posted for the entrance so we walk around building twice to find it. Parking is $26 in the lots & you have to pay thru your phone. Not even the lot attendant could get it to work right. I had to park 4 blocks away at the city hall parking structure, which is free but made us miss 25 minutes of the show.
Mark S — Google review
A must see when you're in town. Lots of restored old buildings, food options (try Goat and Vine restaurant) and shops. Make sure to also go down the side streets as there are other shops around that are worth visiting. Lastly, there's a public parking about 2 blocks up away from the main street that helps avoid competing in finding parking.

Great venue, not a bad seat in the house. The place has the feel of a Broadway theater, with a gorgeous outdoor courtyard serving as a lobby. Saw the Andrew Lloyd Webber spectacular and it was a great tribute to the composer! Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Visited this winery with a party of 5 and had a wonderful time! We arrived around 3pm and it wasn’t too busy, nice relaxed vibe. The views were just amazing! It was really quiet, no noise from the road. We opted to getting a few bottles to drink vs. doing the tasting and that was a really nice experience. Both wines we chose (whites because it was super hot) were great and we stayed till they were closing. This place is just gorgeous, great wine, and great service. Would go again and would highly recommend to others in the area

We LOVE Leoness!!! Every single wine they make is so drinkable from the Cellar series to their Farmer’s selections! We recently were in and tasted two Zinfandels and both were delicious, different, but so good! We ALWAYS love the compilations! My favorite thing to do (after tasting in the tasting room with Vicki) is to sit on the lower patio and just enjoy the view!!!

Very unfriendly and rigid manager ruined family outing. We wanted to sit in the picnic area. It was completely empty. We were going to buy bottles and food but we wanted to eat our own cheese with the wine. They refused, made it uncomfortable and were completely uncompromising. We’ve always come here and done this. Always buy lots of wine. We’ll avoid this winery from now on and recommend to all our friends to do the same.

We came for the members dinner tonight and have been members here since the early 2000s. The venue had to change due to the weather conditions, but Wilson Creek Rose vacation and pivoted in high fashion. It was seamless and pulled off without looking like there was any effort. It’s a great tribute to why we joined winery and thank you again for an amazing night celebrating your 25th anniversary

I was so excited to photograph this company Christmas party. This winery was my dear friend's absolute favorite – he used to spoil me with their chocolate cups and almond champagne. Being able to work here as a photographer, I can confidently say the experience was everything I'd hoped for. It’s easy to see why this place held such a special spot in his heart; it certainly didn't disappoint.

We have frequented at least 3 different times for events and individual tasting. each time, wines were average at best and grounds had commercial vibes. Staff were pushing for purchase and usually inattentive. My family and I prefer visiting other nearby wineries for better taste, price, and service.

The place is pretty, and it can accommodate large numbers of people, something that can be a plus or a minus, depending. However, I have to say, food quality is terrible. I don’t think we’ll be coming here again. It’s a place for crowds. The kids area is quite far from the dinning areas so kids cannot go and play after they finish their meager kids menu food.

The food at the grille was not the best. It tasted like 7-11 food. The wine, however, was amazing. They just opened up the vineyard tour the weekend of 6/28/25, and it was great. About 1.5 hour tour with 8 glasses of wine included. Traci, the tour guide was phenomenal. Full of energy and enthusiasm.

Pretty cool lil stadium! They have a Taproom with a full Restaurant as well as a BBQ place, Taco place, Coldstone, Bakery/Sweets, and your standard stadium concessions. Not a bad seat in the place!

My wife wanted to see the Mariachi so we went and other than the brawl, it was somewhat pleasurable. The presentation was excellent, the beer prices were exorbitant and I think they could have done a better job with their accommodations. We'll be back. Hopefully the people attending will be significantly more civilized.

The stadium is great but the cleaning crew suck, especially in the restrooms. They ran out of paper towels & toilet paper & then when they finally serviced the restrooms they just put the rolls on top of the dispensers not even in their proper places. The toilets were backed up and the floors were a complete mess & all feminine product trash cans were over flowing, how disgusting. Very disappointed ☹️

Cinepolis Luxury Cinemas Rancho Santa Margarita

Movie theater
Fun & Games
Movie theater chain, offering state-of-the-art sound & projection technology.
Possibly the most comfortable movie theater in South Orange County. The seats are reminiscent ofctravelling first class on a plane, and they offer table service for food and drinks. They have a weekly wine bottle special, and their hamburgers are delicious. The food menu is also the most extensive I've seen in any other theater.

I have been taking my twin granddaughters to this theatre for a couple of years. I recently purchased some tickets online for the following day, I did not realize that I mistakenly purchased tickets for the same day. I did not notice this until the following day when I arrived at the theater. I had one of the staff bring me there on duty manager. He looked to be about 20 to 22 years of age. When I told him what it happened and showed him on my phone the tickets from yesterday he informed me that their policy was that they “could do anything about it”. even though the prior day was not sold out, and they would not lose any customer money. I asked him again if there was anything at all he could do. And again he said no that’s the policy and he was powerless to do anything. As a former manager myself, I informed him that I did not agree or believe him because that’s what managers do. Managers have latitude in decision-making for circumstances just like this, to take care of their customers. I told him that if he really was the manager on duty, he definitely could do “something” about this issue. He was steadfast, did not offer me any kind of discounts for future or even any kind of discounts for that day for food or drinks. He was very unhelpful . . I think he either was not a manager, or was trained very poorly. I’ve worked in customer service for half my adult life, and he did not handle the situation very well. I am not in the habit of supporting a business that do not care about their customers. So I will take my granddaughters to another movie theater next time.

I am sitting here waiting for a corrected bill after a late Minecraft movie. We used to come here for all of the best movies of the year. Not anymore! The night started off poor, with the food servers spending more time talking to people in the wrong seats despite the fact we got here over ten minutes early and had our button pressed. That was the first sign. Then they were out of the food item I wanted on the menu. They were slow in bringing our food after. When our food came there was no burger for my son. I pushed my button to ask about it and no one came until it was too late to serve food. The server came and told us it wasn't his fault and they only deducted the food he didn't get and they offered us three free tickets and then I said that was not enough, because we are not coming back. So he sent his manager out who gave me more attitude for the experience and how little they were willing to do. Really disappointed. I got three free tickets for this place for some point in the future but this is the worst customer experience I have had in the theaters in twenty years. Going to stop going to Cinepolis. This is not what I expected from their advertising.

I recently visited this movie theater and was very impressed. It's a spacious venue with numerous screens, offering a wide variety of showtimes. The seating is exceptionally comfortable, making for a great viewing experience. I also thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food, and the service was excellent. The entire theater was spotlessly clean. I highly recommend it for a fantastic movie outing.

This is our go to theater even though it is crazy expensive ($22/ticket). However, we treat ourselves 3 or 4 times a year. The staff is really pleasant and you can't beat the reclining seats. Food is generally ok to good. Had some glitches the last time I was there. Ordered the nachos and seems like they were made but not delivered. Had to remind a server. By the time I got them, well after the other meals arrived, they were stone cold and not very good. Also, y would not recommend the s'mores popcorn. Essentially it's popcorn with a few bits of melted chocolate and a few mini marshmallows. Not mixed at all and when you are lucky enough to get one bit of chocolate, it's just a mess.

Unfortunately I do not agree with comfortable seating. My family and I went this weekend to watch Jurassic world and were highly disappointed. Two of the seats had issued. One of them was missing the table top so couldn't put drink or food on it. The second one was so low my family member felt like he would fall. He had to switch with our family member that was lighter than him. Also, usually they are so quick with food but this weekend was bad. It took a really long time to even bring popcorn and drinks, let alone food. Very disappointed.

My server refused to give me water. He was rude and didn't apologize for his service. I went to the manager to address the issue and he was able to get my drink with an apology. It is still unexceptable to ignore someone's order for a water. If he had just gave me my water, this wouldn't have been an issue. This location has not been the best on my last visits.

We arrived to the theater to grab tickets for Superman - figured it was going to be a bit full so my party of 3 had to split up, which is no big deal manageable. Now let’s go to my order for a popcorn, Sprite, and a Mango iced tea at 8:03pm. Legitimately it took over an hour for us to be served and actually get our items we ordered. This only happened when I physically got out of my chair to go ask concessions what the hold up was. While waiting before getting up - I was accidentally offered two glasses of wine and a jalapeño burger . 2 different gentleman suggested that they would go check on my order but never did. I get a busy theater but with 5/6 different people serving guests it shouldn’t be that hard to get orders right or just provide some basic customer service. Upon going to the concession stand, I was offered little to no remorse from the lady behind the counter. She just pretty much shrugged and said the hold up after an hour was due to the fact that they had to “brew” the tea. Legit fuming at this point, asked her why no one came to my seat to offer me an alternative or atleast deliver the popcorn and sprite and let me pick something else? Still took an additional 10 minutes to get delivered to my seat. So at this point the movie is pretty much half over. To then receive wrong bill at the end of the movie at first and then even still our bill, added insult to injury. Bobby - Manager on duty, thanks for hopefully making it right. My bill for food was voided (will be checking this tomorrow to make sure it was posted). Advice to management - do better! People pay an arm and a leg to come to Cinepolis over regular theaters. When the experience can’t even hit the bare minimum bar, it makes people not want to return.

Ramona Bowl Amphitheatre

Open-air arts center from 1923 known for Ramona, North America's longest-running outdoor drama.
ABSOLUTELY astounding. Wonderful outdoor play fill if beautiful rich colored costumes. Authentic Native American and Mexican portrayals with cowboys and horses. Reasonable concession prices. Bring a cushion or rent one. Suggest hat, shades and sun screen. Entertainment before, intermission and after play ends UPDATE...Motown Review was great.

First time attending the Ramona Pageant at the Ramona Bowl. I finally made to the Ramona Pageant and in their Centennial year non the less. I thoroughly enjoyed the show and the lore of the 100 year history. The Pageant was held this year for 3 weekends, two in April and one in May. There is still time to get tickets for the final weekend this year. Things you should know: ( may be subject to change) • parking is $5 • bring a cushion, the concrete seats are hard. They do rent cushions for $3 apiece • bring a hat sun can be intense, hats are available for sale • food, beverages and Alcohol are sold and just like any event prices can be high. • Restrooms are available • handicap friendly • the is a free museum to enjoy Enjoy the show!

Very sad performance. Terrible, do not waste your time. Horrible timing, way way too long, lots of disjointed scenes. Needs to be cut at least an hour off the script. Swayed away from the original book. I so wanted to enjoy this performance. Wish I could say one positive thing.

Great historic play with Indian and Spanish music and culture in Hemet about San Diego history- Indians, rancheros Spanish people, and american settlers. I learnt quite a bit. Just be sure to bring a good sun hat, sunscreen, layers etc. was pretty hot and then it got pretty chilly towards the end. One elderly lady got a heat stroke and got carried out on a stretcher. 30 min intermission which seems longer than normal probably small sized bathrooms. Fair to good live musics/ musicians. Spanish and Indian Dances parking is 5.00/ car and they sell programs and seat cushions and refreshments outside the amphitheater. Seats are concrete so you can bring your own cushions. Seems like they don’t fill up the left hand most side of the amphitheater. Top most seats at the amphitheater have shade tarps.

What an awesome outdoor amphitheater in little ol' Hemet! The grounds are beautiful and there were plenty of snacks and drinks to choose from at the concession stand (even beer and wine). The Ramona Pageant was better than I had hoped! It was a little toasty and there wasn't much shade so I wished I had brought a hat, but other than that, I was so pleased with my experience.

Really beautiful in autumn. There are multiple easy trails/loops that would be manageable for small children. However, not the best for disabled people as the way down from the visitor center is steep and may be difficult to go up and down.

I loved the atmosphere of this campground with its incredibly tall trees. I only gave it a 4 star because many of the tent sites were badly eroded as well as the parking places for them. Electric sites are available however it appeared that the only site w/ water hook up was the handicap site next to the rest room.

Breathtaking view taking the aerial tramway. It is worth every bit of the cost and experience. Staff are friendly and courteous and you can buy a ticket that includes a meal when you get there if you like. There are options. There are gift shops and you can spend some time there. This is most definitely worth The experience.

We came to the park via the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway for our anniversary! There are 5 ‘Notches’ along the 1.5 mile Desert View Trail, and those lookouts are spectacular views of the valley below! Can’t wait to come back and hike longer, there are over 50 miles of trails! It’s much cooler (40 to 50 degrees cooler from the desert floor) atop the mountain, so it’s a perfect activity during the summer

Rode the tram up to the station, and made the 10 mile round trip hike to the summit of San Jacinto Peak! I’m from the east coast, so this was an experience unlike anything else! I won’t lie, we came blissfully unaware and underprepared for the strain of high altitude hiking, but we got the job done and made it home! I learned AFTER the hike, that San Jacinto Peak is one of the USA Ultra 57’s! Now I don’t think this means I’m gonna go climb Rainier tomorrow, but I’d like to do as many Ultras as I can! Chase what makes you feel alive people! I will forever be grateful I made this journey, so far from home. I hope I can inspire others to do the same!

It's not quite what I remember when I brought our children. It seems a bit paired back. The produce store, not nearly the amount of fresh produce replaced with a great deal of packaged foods. If your lookong for a burger, get there before 3pm Mon - Fri. The General Stote is pretty much what I remembered with a hot food 'deli' in the back. I had the meatball sandwich and ordered the 12ct mozzarella sticks for th table. Delicious! The fresh (still warm) french bread, Delicious! We didn't go into the furniture store. The staff so very nice. I would recommend bringing the family!

March Field Air Museum, located near the March Air Reserve Base, is a must-visit for aviation enthusiasts and families alike. The museum boasts an impressive collection of over 70 historic military aircraft, including rare operational jets. With more than 30,000 artifacts on display, visitors can delve into the rich history of aviation and explore exhibits dating back to World War I.
Very nice museum complex. Lots of inside exhibits and artifacts. They also have a very large collection of static aircraft on display. I stopped by on a weekday right at opening and had the place to myself for a bit. That staff and volunteers were happy to chat and were very knowledgeable.

We took our 2yo grandson to the museum and were pleasantly surprised on how engaged he was with the exhibits. We arrived at 10am and there wasn’t a wait to enter. Their main museum area is a huge hangar! Don’t hesitate to go through the hallways (AC was great!) for additional displays. We liked that the glassed collections were from floor to ceiling to allow little ones to view items. For viewing the outdoor planes & helicopters we wore comfortable shoes. Due to the warm weather we brought hats and bottled water.

Great museum! Many many aircraft, way more than I anticipated. Google didn't do it justice so I've added more pics. If you are into short wave radio, TV, and electronics check out their display devoted to their history. The SR-71 was really awsome. Many displays you can experience. Also displays of space hardware, U.S. and Russia.

The March Field Air Museum is by far one of the best museums I have ever visited. It's been almost 30 years since I last visited and they have definitely put a lot of love, dedication and pride into this place.

My daughter, her son and I visited on 9/27/2025 about 11:13a.m., they opened at 9:00. The man at the entry, taking payment, was super friendly. After we stepped out of the ticket area we were greeted by Fred, (maybe his title is docent?) He had a lot to tell about areas we don't want to miss, and a small, more personal, story, too. He was fun to listen to. He had a great sense of humor. My grandson is almost 4, so he was interested in different things than I was. His mom took him about, but we reunited in different areas. So much history in there! Then we took the tiny bus, $5 per rider. This man was amazing! He took us past each airplane on the field, describing the vitals & history of each plane, while adding a bit of humor on occasion. Great touring voice and so filled with info! It was a great tour! If you are a plane buff, but maybe don't know about ALL of these planes, it's a great guided tour. The bonus was no walking! 😉 Enjoy!!!
Lori B — Google review
This has been a hidden gem of a museum. Went here on a whim,but I never expected to see so many and such big aircrafts up close. Could have spend days if I wanted to thoroughly see it all. I saw most of my favourite planes on display here, absolutely beyond my wildest dreams. (SR-71,B-17,B-25J) But the collection is far greater than that. On the outside of the museum there's more planes than I have ever seen together, and the bus tour is a recommendation. Have a chat with the staff and volunteers, they have great stories to tell, and real life experiences. The nearby active airbase also has some interesting activity. Inside there's a lot of history on display from all kinds of era's of aviation, from uniforms to replicas to actual spaceshuttle parts! Must see for any aircraft enthusiast.
Dutch D — Google review
Took my son over fall break and there's so much to see. The staff and volunteers were very knowledgeable and helpful. They have a little 45 min. tram tour around the outside planes for a small extra fee, but it was well worth it as the gentleman that provided the tour gave us so much information about each plane and it happen to be raining quite a bit outside. Its much bigger on the inside than you anticipate, with a NASA section, military outfits and so much more. There are flight simulators and even an old war plane where we had a gentleman by the name of Max who used to be a pilot for that type of plane instruct him how they would have taken off in that fighter plane. They also had a scavenger hunt that my son was quite invested in. It also looks like you can rent parts of the facility out for events. I would recommend taking the time to visit this treasure.

Cemeteries
Riverside National Cemetery, located near the March Field Air Museum, is a significant resting place for veterans. As the third-largest cemetery operated by the National Cemetery Administration, it offers solemn grounds and ample space for eligible members of the armed forces to be buried. Established in the mid-1970s and spanning 1,250 acres, this serene site opened on Veterans Day in 1978 and now holds over a quarter of a million graves.
My mother's Air Force funeral service was exactly what she would have wanted. It was dignified and paid honor to her time serving her country. I especially want to thank Ester, who works for the cemetery. She was professional and made us all feel respected. The Air Force representatives who folded my mom's flag and saluted her were women. It warmed my heart to see that, because I know it would have made my mom proud. I especially loved it when Ester announced that my mom's military service paved the way for future generations of women in the Air Force. THANK YOU!

It is "closed" after sunset, but that's because the cemetery is largely unlit by any man made sources of light (except around the buildings and on the flags which are lit). Just stars, the moon, and any ambient light from the main streets outside the cemetery. We left after twilight and the gates were still open for people to enter and visit their loved ones. No one was chasing people out. At least not too quickly.

Beautiful place. Full of history. Full of Hero’s. I understand this place has 320,000 veterans resting here with capacity to hold 2 million. Their Medal of Honor Memorial is simple and very humbling. The names of every Medal of Honor recipient etched into their marble walls. My uncles name is on the wall and my father and father in law are buried here. This place is humbling. The aircraft from March Air Force Base next door fly over this place and adds to the pageantry. When the flags are placed on all the grave sites on Veterans Day, it is a site to behold. I get overwhelmed with the feeling of pride. There is history here everyone should visit and experience regardless of having family placed here or not. I hope you will visit. On weekdays there is plenty of help and the place is well organized. They have a 6 staging areas for services. The guard at the guard shack will direct you. BUT, On the weekends the offices are closed. If you don’t know where the gravesite is you are visiting, the best bet is to go to the offices. They will be closed but there is a kiosk next to the front entrance that can direct you to the gravesite. They will direct you to a “section”. But the sections are not clearly market out. And It is a large place so patience is a nessesary. After you find out the section you Then download a map on your phone from the official website to find the area. I have run across a few people who were frustrated trying to find their family grave sites. So try to find out all the information you can before you get there on the weekends. Or best bet is to plan on going during the week when the offices are open. Good luck.

The Riverside National Cemetary,located in Riverside, California is a terrific visit for the family,patriots,families and tourists to the area! Riverside National cemetery is home of the Medal of Honor Memorial and one of four sites recognized as a National Medal of Honor Memorial Site. The Medal of Honor Memorial, whose walls feature the names of all medal recipients, is located at the third traffic circle in the cemetery. It was dedicated in 1999. The Fallen Soldier/Veterans' Memorial, erected in 2000, is dedicated to all service members who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The dramatic bronze structure topped by a lifeless soldier is located near the lake at the entrance to the cemetery. #riverside #riversidenationalcemetery #usa #fallensoldiers #seetheusa #historic #airforce #army #coastgaurd #navy #marines #spaceforce #redwhiteandblue #medalofhonor #militarycemetery

Cabazon Dinosaurs, also known as the World's Biggest Dinosaurs, is a vintage attraction featuring enormous replicas of famous dinosaurs like Brontosaurus and Tyrannosaurus rex. These iconic structures have been featured in various media and are a popular sight for the millions of people who drive by them each year. Located on Morongo Band of Mission Indians land in Banning, this cultural center offers artifacts, a native plant garden, and rotating exhibits highlighting Indigenous communities.
Such a great place to stop and spark the imagination of the children! Cabazon dinos are lifesize with a splash of color, making for fun pictures. There’s a small store inside the brachiosaurus, prices are reasonable and we were able to get some souvenirs that kept the kids talking about the place for the rest of the roadtrip 😊

Been over 30+ years that I was in this area based at 29 Palms, used to drive by Cabazon all the time. Back then the dinosaurs were the original color that was in the PeeWee movie. Today, it was a must that the family stopped by to check out the dinosaurs. New paint, and a cool exhibit of over 20+ dinosaurs when you pay to enter in order to climb into the T-Rex mouth. Very cool shop inside the "Long Neck" dino, where you purchase your tickets. Breanna was super nice. Lots of trinkets and gifts to choose from. The other shop at the exhibit walk thru is cool, much more to choose from. Really nice place to spend some time. We were in a bit of a time crunch headed back to AZ, but for time we spent, was well worth the stop.

When one of your best friends says, "Oh man, you haven't been to Cabazon? We need to go,"—listen to them. I’m so glad I did. Visiting Cabazon was a truly unique, one-of-a-kind experience that I’ll cherish forever. The main attraction? Two giant dinosaurs—and yes, you can actually go inside them. One houses a quirky and fun gift shop, while the other is a massive T-Rex that's repainted for different seasons and holidays, adding a playful and ever-changing vibe to the visit. Beyond the iconic dinosaurs, I really enjoyed the outdoor enclosures you can walk through. The flowers and vegetation were unexpectedly beautiful, adding a peaceful, almost whimsical backdrop to the prehistoric theme. The dinosaurs throughout the grounds looked well-maintained and in great shape, which made the whole experience feel more immersive. Overall, Cabazon is more than just a pit stop—it’s a nostalgic, creative, and fun detour that’s worth making time for. If you're driving through on your way to California, don’t miss it.

This place is totally cool. LOTS of dinosaurs. You can easily spend more than an hour there. Be sure to climb up inside the T-Rex and roar! Very friendly and helpful staff. I may be in my seventies, but I want to have my birthday party there.

I just love the Cabazon Dinosaurs where the famous scene from the 1985 movie Pee-Wee's Big Adventure was filmed at and today's the day of the 40th anniversary when it came out on August 9th, 1985 with the late Paul Reubens. Of course, the World's Biggest Dinosaurs are the best attractions that many parents and children would ever visit! I can imagine making friends with Mr. Rex and Dinny when I was a little kid somewhere between 2005 and 2006. I remember when I first came to Cabazon Dinosaurs where my parents took me and my sister Marina here and all the moments are refreshing my sweet childhood memories.

It's almost like a little desert oasis. Not for Miles is there anything really nice. Then boom. This very clean and up to date outlet mall. I unfortunately was not there to shop. But worked on the Chloe face lift. Its revamped and full of modern and very aggressive light fixtures.

ILLEGAL PUPPY SALES WITH NO CONCERN. Solicitors selling illegally bred small puppies in OVER 100 DEGREE heat absolutely abusing them. Cabazon security did NOTHING. It is very obvious they are peddling animals to the point they are asking people to buy them. Cabazon DO BETTER. Spoke to someone in the office who led me in the right direction to air my concern. Apparently there is different security for different areas of the shopping center. Thank you for being helpful in solving this matter. I will keep my post up to inform others not to support backyard breeders!

Upscale outdoor shopping center featuring high-end designer fashion outlets, plus casual dining.
ดีมากๆ This outdoor shopping plaza is absolutely stunning and perfect for a sunny day out. Surrounded by beautifully maintained palm trees and stylish architecture, the atmosphere is both luxurious and relaxing. The plaza features high-end brands like Jimmy Choo and offers plenty of shaded seating areas for shoppers to rest and enjoy the surroundings. The open layout allows for a pleasant walking experience, and the fountain in the center adds a refreshing touch. It's clean, elegant, and ideal for both shopping and simply soaking up the vibe of a chic, desert-modern lifestyle. Highly recommended for fashion lovers and those who enjoy a bit of luxury!

These outlets are next to each other premium desert hills outlets and the cabezon outlets. Lots of different stores to do your shopping for all budgets. A few restaurants and eateries along the way. Plenty of parking but can get busy. You'll find some discounts in some of the stores. The premises are kept neat and clean restrooms available too. A nice walk with beautiful views of the mountains and sunset. Some art work throughout. Will definitely return.

Last time I visited this place was 2015, how time flies! It is completely different now and I do think the selection of brands shrinks quite a bit. I’m here for the billabong outlet shops but unfortunately it is closed but not correctly marked in google maps. I hope there are more shops for food and drinks. The Starbucks gets overcrowded because a lack of coffee shops & bubble tea shops. It gets overheated at noon and it’s easy to get dehydrated. When everyone wants a iced drink Starbucks become almost the only shop that you can get a refresher from

First time visiting. Lots and lots of stores to shop from very enjoyable to walk-through especially at night time. Lots of restaurants and parking spaces as well. They even have a McDonald’s close by and it’s a great for kids because they have tablets on the tables for them to play with while the adults catch a breather. I highly recommend it now we return.

Fender Factory Tour

Permanently Closed
Musical instrument store
Visitor Centers
My wife and my son took me here for my birthday a couple of years ago. One of the most memorable birthdays I’ve had. When you’re a guitar nut especially a Fender freak like myself, visiting the factory where this iconic piece of musical genius is created is like a trip to heaven.
Jeff R — Google review
It is a hit and miss - I had a friend that liked his tour. But, for me, it was unforgettable in a bad way. I went to the tour in 2016. The tour guide (I wish I remember his name, but he can be seen in one of the pics, wearing a olive green shirt) was terrible! It looked like he hated that job, or he was replacing someone else. There is a wall with some historic guitars (including some early days Fenders), he didn't allow us to stop and see it. He was constantly ironic, sometimes impolite at people. He mocked my accent (I'm Brazilian) in front of people when I asked a question. He was rushing people. Despite that, I saw a Limited Edition guitar what was about to be launched and I asked if I could buy that guitar. But the purchase experience (with the same guy) wasn't nice, so I gave up. Also, when you enter the main tour hall, there is the ModShop room (place where you can assemble your own guitar, putting different parts together) and the professional on the charge of that room was also rude. Factory-wise: it's just a factory. Nothing different from other regular guitar factories. The pics I'm posting here can prove my point. Something good: at that time, there was a room with most guitar amps made by Fender, and anyone could give them a spin. On the other hand, there wasn't a lot of guitars to be played. Anyway, I used to be a Fender fanboy when I was a kid, and that tour was the last straw, shaking my relationship with the brand. This is my experience and I wish I had written it immediately after my visit. PS: the smile in one of the pics was taken before the tour, when I arrived at the facility.

My 2015 Fender American Standard Stratocaster (olympic white) has aged nicely, however the polyurethane paint is starting to show through and I can clearly see that it has 4 pieces of wood glued together.

Occasionally, a Japanese guide will be provided, but in general the tour will be guided by factory staff. Please note that you cannot enter with sandals.

Richard Nixon Presidential Library & Museum

Mentioned on 
+43 other lists 
Museum
History museum
The Richard Nixon Library & Museum is a must-visit for history and politics enthusiasts. It offers well-curated exhibitions that vividly depict the life and presidency of Richard Nixon, including his controversial resignation during the Watergate scandal. The museum showcases artifacts, audiovisual materials, and documents related to Nixon's political career, from his visit to China to significant events like the Vietnam War ceasefire.
The library is a beautiful and historic place. It offered a lot of information about the man and his accomplishments. Unfortunately the great work he did was overshadowed by Watergate. The library is built on the property where he was born. Their home is on the site in it's original location. Most of the furnishings are original. Great place to visit.
Dan G — Google review
Very interesting and informative look at Nixon's career and life. Didn't know anything about his personal life, or honestly many of the good things he did during his presidency. The exhibits are modern and very well done. Watch the video at the beginning, it's a great introduction. The order of the exhibits is interesting but it worked. And we liked ending on his childhood home and the helicopter. The grounds are nice. There's really nothing too ostantacious here. Other people mentioned how nice the docents were and it's true. They're very nice and knowledgeable.

Incredibly well done. So much to see and learn here. The museum includes Marine One (President's helicopter) and a full-size replica of Nixon's Oval Office. Believe it or not, Richard Nixon's childhood home (and birthplace) are on these grounds.
Apex V — Google review
An incredible and comprehensive Presidential Library. Densely-packed with information, it tells not only the story of Nixon, but the time in which he lived, led, and ultimately faltered. The museum does not shy away from Watergate and the reckless decisions he made, which I appreciated. A complicated and tragic figure in American history. The helicopter is undergoing renovations so could not been except through a gate which was disappointing. The museum starts with his administration and then explores his childhood and rise to power, which was an unconventional choice that is interesting if not a bit counterintuitive. Highly recommend visiting!
Jaiden S — Google review
Drove across country to see this Museum. Got to entrance and was told only the Gardens was open. I asked why? It was due to the Federal Government shutdown. This absolutely made no sense to me. I asked why would a self guided museum tour be closed? I was told that the government owns the displays in the museum. Eight Dollars to go though the gardens. I was also told that the gardens were open and the house that the President was born in is open as well. Marine One was also open as it was next to the house that he was born in. I asked if I could use the restroom as none where insight of the lobby/entrance was told it would be a Dollar and I would have to go through security. None of this makes any sense to me. Especially the restroom part. Took pics from outside. I’ll problem get a bill for taking the pics, so enjoy.

Beautiful performance at an equally beautiful venue. The performers played a great selection of songs from Coldplay and Imagine Dragons with a little introduction to many of the songs.

Redlands Bowl

Mentioned on

Amphitheater
Sights & Landmarks
The Redlands Bowl is a historic amphitheater located in Redlands, dating back to the 1920s. It was a gift to the city and continues its tradition of offering free music and theatrical performances to the public. The venue hosts various events such as the Redlands Shakespeare Festival in May and the Summer Music Festival from June to August, featuring diverse performances from around the world.
My family has been going to the Redlands Bowl for 40+ years! They accept and encourage donations, but they never charge for their summer program. Twice a week during the summer they have the greatest performances of all kinds! I don't live in California anymore but I come to visit nearly every summer and I love to attend the Bowl!!!

Amazing experience. This was my first visit to the Redlands Bowl. The performances are free. The grounds are clean and seating is awesome. Parking can be found in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Dave F — Google review
FREE LIVE SHOWS! Yes, you heard that right, The Redlands Bowl is home to a long-running summer festival that hosts live entertainment at no cost! Voluntary donations are highly suggested as this amphitheater has NEVER charged since its opening and it's been around for over a century! Donations are excepted in cash (a bucket is passed around) or through dip (tap). I love the quality entertainment and magical performances I get to experience here each year! I've seen The Texas Tenors, Mariachi Divas, Broadway and AGT talent and so much more on this stage! The musicians that show up are wonderful! It's recommended to come early as some shows fill up fast. You can opt to sit on the lawn but it's limited. The benches are a bit tough so I would recommend bringing a seat cushion. The Bowl is very strict about NOT saving seats for others, please be courteous and don't do it. The Redlands bowl is now a part of my yearly summer activities! It's a good place to come with friends or even by yourself! The ambiance is kind of rocky as a lot of patrons are older, white folks with entitlement issues. However, I've noticed more young people are coming so hopefully the vibes improve! Some of the staff are hit-or-miss especially the info desk peeps, they need to be more welcoming! Parking is available at the mall on Citrus or the lot across from the mall (also on Citrus). Parking is FREE. If you're craving a snack, the Redlands Bowl partners with some people called the Optimus Club who sell popcorn, ice cream and drinks if you're interested. Restrooms are available by the Gables House. Overall, I highly suggest visiting, some of the shows are a bit old-fashioned but most are good!

High-speed racing venue where visitors can drive or ride along in an authentic NASCAR vehicle.
Went to a race in February of 2023 and it was a fantastic experience. Besides getting in which was just waiting in a long line of cars, the racing experience itself was fantastic. The food options were endless, there was a pretty solid selection of merchandise. It was a very entertaining race and the best part was Kyle Bush (the winner). Definitely sad they’re turning it into a short track, but still happy I was able to see track before the renovations. 10/10

Awesome museum and quite a find while I was at the fair last week! So many dragsters, funny cars in roadsters from the nineteen fifties through the early nineteen eighties, I would say, brought back so many memories of when I was a young lad building, racing motors and drag racing. Employees and volunteers are very friendly and willing to talk "shop talk" the exhibits are well organized and well cared for. Highly recommend!

Botanical garden
Nature & Parks
The California Botanic Garden, a non-profit property established in 1927 by conservationist Susanna Bixby Bryant, features an array of diverse native gardens and plants. Visitors can attend regular classes and explore a nursery and gift shop. The garden is dedicated to preserving native species and provides opportunities for individuals seeking tranquility away from the noise of busy city streets. While some areas are temporarily closed for updating, guests can admire the sounds of numerous birds chirping while walking along peaceful ponds.
Wow this garden has it all! Plenty of parking (admission is $15 for adults), so many different trees, flowers, birds, and other animals! I came here years ago by myself and it was not this neatly organized/admission was free. I returned with my husband and the changes are so massive-including the size of the garden!! We enjoyed bird listening and watching here. We also loved the diversity of creatures running around-squirrels, rabbits, turtles, and lizards (I personally don’t like bugs so I ignored and avoided the butterflies and bees)! It has endless paths that we tried exploring as much as we could and didn’t see it all! There are at least two ponds and some shady spots, but majority is in the sun (bringing a sunbrella helps majorly). I highly recommend this place for nature lovers, kids, bird watchers, and explorers!! We had a great time and I definitely will be back! Oh and their bathrooms were surprisingly so clean AND they had water fountains which were so needed because we left our water in the car!!

Beautiful location with several trails, plenty of rest spaces, clean restrooms, and ample parking. It is very tranquil and all is very well taken care of. The entry fee is very fair and the annual passes for locals is a great value. Tucked away in the foothills, we experienced a low cloud hanging onto the mountain, making it cool and overcast. Fellow visitors are friendly and helpful, as all are there to enjoy Mother Nature. There's a lot to walk, but you won't feel like you missed anything if you're unable to complete it; the beauty is everywhere.

A nice botanical garden that is vast and peaceful. There are different sections and quite large with lots to explore. There was not really anything that stood out or was breathtakingly, but overall quite pretty and nice to walk around. Spent around an hour and a half slowly walking around the trails and saw pretty much everything, can definitely spend more time relaxing and seeing things in more detail.

We love how the expansive spaces allow for flexible catering setups and smooth guest experiences. It’s perfect for nature-inspired events and weddings.

Nice walking trails thru a mixture of locally grown plant life on display that visitors can associate with. All in all, I found the self-guided pathways to be an enjoyable exercise adventure confirming botanic references! I wasn’t sure what to expect, as with public gardens, they typically tend to be beautifully decorated with flowers, plants and trees, offering different varieties of popular horticulture. This particular garden is known for its local Southern California variety. Since my visit was at the supposed end of an historic drought, it seemed a challenge for operators to find common ground irrespective of seasonal changes. While some off-trail areas were appearing a bit dry and lifeless, the desert garden aspect was reassuring of the possibilities that may exist with drought tolerant gardening! It would be interesting to see the contrast with rain soaked soil and the adaptation to changing conditions!

I mostly love the Tukut. I love all the servers, DJ's, entertainers, and everyone who works there. One reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the price for the tables is exuberant (imo). $75 for a table for two is not reasonable. Friday nights feel different now. It's not terrible, and they do have some really good cumbia bands, BUT the atmosphere is not as vibing. Some ppl go upstairs to the Chingon because its free cover charge, and it's free seating. Maybe they don't care? Same management? At the end of the day, it's a business to make money. That's understandable; I just don't think that upper mgmt thought about how some of the loyal regulars would interpret their price hikes... I probably will always still visit, but Tukut does not offer more than other casinos. For example, the Saboba and the Pechanga both have dance places that offer free cover charges and free seating so if I can, I'll drive there instead. As a matter of fact, the dance floors at other venues are bigger and roomier. That being said, overall the Tukut is still a good place, especially the ppl who work there. I find everyone to be polite and helpful. You'll also find forever dance friends that go often. Just be prepared if you tire easily, because you'll have to fish out money just to sit. As a side note, it's also hard to contact them and they don't always respond to email. I'm now giving Tukut 5 stars because they recently stopped charging for their bottom tables and to me, that says a lot. Thank you mgmt. I appreciate that very much! Much love to Tukut!!

Never met a man who’s so disrespectful and impolite and Ignore me just because I have 15 mins before close time. His name is James . Super disgusting and disrespectful. I had the guys that fix the beers Sergio before him . They called him and he walked up and said I’m not serving you. What kind of employee does this: he hid behind the bar after asking his name multiple times .

I love the Tukut Lounge!! Please bring back The Reel Band on Saturdays!! And the DJ that was there when they performed on Saturday, May 20, 2023! Great Band! Should be on the rotation for Saturdays and not just for Karaoke, What a waste! The 2 solo/leads were OFF THE CHAIN!! May I also request The BIG BAND ON SATURDAYS AS WELL. They were there in 2022, about a year ago and haven’t been back since. Thank you, 347806, Diamond

Horrible. Went for what I thought was a free concert then found out we had to pay a fee. Super Small area. I was willing to pay the fee but then was told that I was not allowed in because the dress code doesn’t allow sandals without a heel strap… RIDICULOUS!!! It doesn’t even say anything about their dress code on their website OR at the place!!!!

Nice lounge, dancing music - mix of Latin music and r&b. (Went on a saturday night 1130 to 130) Drinks are very weak. Go to rock and brews first, they have strong, good drinks.

Snow Summit

Mentioned on 
+27 other lists 
Temporarily Closed
Ski resort
Nature & Parks
Snow Summit is a top choice for winter sports enthusiasts in Big Bear Lake, Southern California. With 33 runs, night riding options, terrain parks, and even a climbing wall, it's a long-running and popular destination. The resort offers over 240 acres of skiable terrain catering to all skill levels from beginners to advanced riders.
Ever since the park was upgraded it definitely became better. It also costs a lot more than it used to for a lift ticket but the amenities are better as well. I've been snowboarding here for decades at this point and recently started mountain biking. Overall the park is great. The staff are also good, maybe a little grouchy or standoffish at times but not enough to write home about. Overall a great place for all seasons and will be back.

Went up the "scenic sky chair" lift as a summer activity while on vacation. If you are on vacation and looking for another activity to do with the kids. I paid $86.00 for three adults and a 12 year old to take the lift to the top. We were hoping to do some hiking but there were only two trails available and they are not shaded so we didn't do much. There is a restaurant at the top and food options but it is also a great place to just bring a picnic and enjoy the views. During the summer it is a huge mountain bike area and almost all of the people going up where bringing their bikes. The basic ticket only allows for one round trip. I wish it was unlimited as the views coming down are awesome.
Adam W — Google review
Everything was a great experience! Parking guides got us in a space quickly. Getting our tickets and bikes on the lift was a breeze. Awesome variety of trails to ride on well marked trails. The good is reasonably priced for being at a resort and better than most places I've experienced. I'm already looking forward to my next trip here
James M — Google review
We had a great time at Above the Boom! It does get a little chilly. So, as they recommend, dress in layers. Also, even though it said no food and drink. A bottle of water and maybe some kids snacks seemed acceptable. They were not overly strict. We supported them purchasing our tickets, and additional beverages including water.
Joshua U — Google review
We always come here whenever we visit Big Bear. The resort offers year-round outdoor activities. The things you do here are unlimited, from skiing and snowboarding in the winter, to mountain biking and hiking the rest of the year. There are several different dining options from fast-food to more upscale bars and restaurants (opening times vary with the seasons). One of the activities we like to do in the spring and fall is taking the chairlift to the summit and enjoying the view while eating lunch. There is plenty of parking along with a multitude of stores, ski/snowboard rentals, a child amusement center and plenty of trails for biking and hiking.

Terrible experience. Came here from Vegas for my son‘s birthday. Got a rental bike and immediately first run down the brakes are already worn down and just super loud. I took a relatively easy way down and when I got to the bottom I noticed one of my spokes had come out. My chain also came off but I didn’t notice it until my second ride down. So I’m just trying to get down the mountain at this point cuz I can’t pedal and then I get down and they tell me the derailer needs to be replaced and I can pay $110 to get my bike back. And I’m like all of this happened on one ride down and now I have to pay $110 after already having paid $200 for the day. I fought it so hard, spoke to every person there that I could about getting my bike back or at that point just getting a refund and leaving, no leniency whatsoever. The bike rental experience there was absolutely miserable, the bike i was given was terrible. Do not rent from this place. Also, my son’s ride card was deactivated at one point and we had to go back to the ticket booth to get a new one. last so much time just trying to get going. If I could give negative stars I would. Spent all this money to come up here just for the bike to break down after one green run.

Big Bear Alpine Zoo

Mentioned on 
+33 other lists 
Zoo
Nature & Parks
Nestled in Big Bear Lake, the Big Bear Alpine Zoo is not your typical zoo. It serves as a refuge for wildlife in need, rehabilitating orphaned, injured, or imprinted animals with the goal of releasing them back into their natural habitat. Since its establishment in 1959, this non-profit organization has been dedicated to caring for local species like bald eagles, black bears, and arctic foxes.
This was such a cute zoo!! 10/10 for sure. The animals looked happy and you could even see some trainers feeding and helping the animals throughout their space. Overall my family and I had a great time. My daughter in specific wanted to visit a zoo for some time now and she was very happy how the animals looked well kept. We also got to learn about skunks and it was very informative per one of the trainers.Cant wait to visit again and bring my older daughter to experience this zoo herself !See you next time!!!
Celiboy V — Google review
This is a wonderful place to visit, regardless of whether you live in Big Bear or just here for a visit. And if you have children, they will love the experience. According to what we read online, this zoo is one of two Alpine zoos in the United States, which provide a refuge for wild animals that cannot be released back into the wild for a variety of reasons as well as specializing in the rehabilitation and release of local Alpine species. They also offer educational training programs, special events and exhibits concerning their mission. There are restrooms onsite along with a gift shop and free parking. Just beware that the zoo does not open until 1000 hours, and in the warmer months, you might not be able to see many of the 190+ animals they have since it is sometimes getting too hot during the day. We will try again this fall when the weather is cooler. We did, however, get to see a wonderful bear education demonstration with one of the trainers and Eleanor, what an informative speech by the trainer. We even witness just how fast a bear can move, which was an eye opener for all of us present. We highly recommend this zoo for people of all ages and appreciate all the staff in their efforts to care for these animals and educate the public.
Thomas B — Google review
Visited the zoo for the first time and LOVED it! We spent about 2 hours at the zoo, casually walking around to learn & observe the animals. The bears, especially the grizzly, were the best! Caught most of the presentation on the skunks which was super interesting. The little skunks were fun to watch scurrying around for the meal worms while the docent shared a wealth of info. At the end, we decided to become annual members so we could visit the zoo & Big Bear more often. The cost of 2 adult tickets was $34 ($17 each), but you can buy a couples pass for the year for just $90. Looking forward to our next visit!
Tanya N — Google review
We visited on a Friday afternoon. Upon a recommendation by a local cashier, we visited around feeding time (2pm-ish). Although it is a small zoo with only locally indigenous creatures, every animal was out and visible, some moving about, some lounging. Gift shop prices were reasonable, compared with other gift shops. The premises were clean and festively decorated for the holidays. Also there is a $1 discount ea. for a group of 10 or more.

Not a huge zoo but perfect for a quick outing with little ones. Plenty of room to look at the animals. We never felt crowded. Everything seem well maintained and the zoo grounds were clean. Plenty of parking. Clean restrooms.
Marianne — Google review
This little zoo is very sweet, a fun little outing with the kids. My only suggestion is to go early in the morning when it’s cooler and when the animals are awake. We made the mistake of going in the heat of the day and many of the animals had found their shady spots, I don’t blame them! Definitely worth a visit!
Barnum A — Google review
Not disappointed at all! All of the animals were well taken care of. Even in the summer they had misters, fresh water and shade for all animals. Everyone looked well fed and happy and thats what I look for in a zoo! I understand that all animals were rescues which I love. 10/10 Zoo better for kiddos.
Brigette A — Google review
This place is awesome. As this is a rehabilitation center you can tell the keepers are so passionate about giving their animals the very best care. They have some beautiful exotic animals and indigenous as well. Lots to see and the place is not overwhelmingly big. Highly recommend the after hours nocturnal tour! Thanks Dar!

Lake Gregory Regional Park

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Park
Nature & Parks
Nestled in the San Bernardino Mountains, Lake Gregory Regional Park covers 84 acres dominated by a man-made lake surrounded by pine trees and trails. The park offers various outdoor activities such as swimming, fishing, boating, hiking, and biking. Visitors can enjoy the swim beach and engage in water activities like kayaking, paddle boating, and float tubing. Additionally, there are dog parks throughout the area making it a pet-friendly destination.
I travel around the world frequently, and this park with its beautiful lake is truly a gem. The walking trail circles around the lake for 4 miles, offering a refreshing experience. Many people come here to fish, while others enjoy the park with their dogs. It’s a stunning piece of nature with fresh air and a vibrant atmosphere. There are restrooms located at specific spots throughout the park, and the parking lots are spacious and easily accessible. This is one of the most beautiful parks and lakes I’ve ever seen in my life, right in the heart of nature. I genuinely loved this place – it’s absolutely worth visiting!
HAITHAM A — Google review
I absolutely love this lake and it’s become one of my favorite getaways. One of the best things about it is the trail that loops around the entire lake, complete with workout stations along the way. There’s nothing better than stopping mid-hike to get in some pull-ups or a quick stretch while taking in the lake views. I also love coming here to paddle board. The water is usually super calm, which makes it perfect for a relaxing paddle or even a picnic on the board. There aren’t many motorized boats around, maybe just one or two small ones at most, so it always feels peaceful and safe. There are lots of people fishing, too, which gives the whole place a laid-back, friendly vibe. And when the summer heat kicks in down in Riverside, this lake feels like the perfect escape. It’s cooler, breezier, and feels like a mini retreat just a short drive away. If you’re looking for a spot to work out, paddle board, or just unwind in nature, this lake is definitely worth a visit!
Silas S — Google review
I went there the day after Labor Day this year and had the lake to myself. They have kayaks, paddle boats, paddle boards and power boats for rent. The whole place was so serene and you could hear nature all around you without motors or other distractions. For parking, I recommend getting the app that they link on their permit to purchase time. I needed to add more time and it was easy to do it from the kayak instead of going to the parking lot. The park is well kept and they have plenty of activities for you to do even when the water park attractions are closed. Enjoy nature. 🌲

We had a great time at Lake Gregory with friends. We arrive around 9am to get parking in the main lot and get in line. When the gate opened we were in a good position to place our tent in a prime spot. Since we were meeting friends, we connected two tents for everyone (about 30 people). We headed straight for the water course. Those who get in early before max capacity is reached don’t have to wait in line and they get to stay out longer. As the park reaches full capacity, they make the overflow wait in line and limit sessions to 30 minutes. One word of caution. If you are an adult, it doesn’t take much to launch your child (see video). My child won the belly flop contest, but was comforted by the cool video our friend took. Food is edible, they run out of ice cream flavors early and bathrooms are a longish walk from the swimming area. There is a slick of sunscreen on the water from all the bodies in there’s This is not the place to go for a quiet, pristine beach day. This is a fun place for kids and groups!
Ann C — Google review
A nice spot for a fun day trip with the kids or dogs. If parking at the main parking lot, you will need to pay. Additional fees if fishing or boating. There are other areas of the lake that are accessible if you park along the side of the road. Dog park, hiking trails, beach area & restrooms are also available. Family friendly.
Naomi C — Google review
The kids had a ball, except The lake should limit how many tickets they sell. It’s $33 dollars for the day to use the bouncer and the slide and there are so many people that you have to wait 30 minutes in the sun in line. When they are at capacity. So either lower your price or control the crowd that is allowed to be on the lake. Parking is horrible. Lots of walking. Food was good and restrooms were clean. We will definitely go again but rethink how we go about it.

A very serene little lake! Peaceful, quiet, well managed, with an easy short ~1.5mi hike around it and a boat rental facility. We went out of season. It's a hidden gem that we enjoyed a lot more than lake Arrowhead, which is a crowded tourist trap lined with docks instead of ducks! I expect late Gregory might be more crowded in the summer when they have the floating bounce castle. We went in October.

Multiple ski areas plus tubing, night riding, lessons, rentals & disc golf in the summer.
I took my teenagers and their friends and they had so much fun! Did everything online before we went. The rental process was great! Here are a few things to keep in mind: They have night time hours from 5-10pm for the best lift price. We did the Afternoon Flex which was perfect for us. There is a place to eat, like a cafeteria style with lots of variety. They do have free parking in the lower levels. And bring a change of clothes! Have fun!

Mountain High is the perfect spot for beginners looking to hit the slopes without the long drive. Located close to LA, it’s one of the most accessible ski resorts, and you can usually get there without dealing with traffic or needing chains. The resort itself is a fun and enjoyable place, offering a great mix of easy runs for beginners and some more advanced areas for those looking to improve. The atmosphere is lively, with a cool DJ playing music and a solid selection of beer and snacks to keep the vibes going. If you're looking for a convenient, hassle-free snowboarding or skiing experience near LA, Mountain High is a great choice!

First of all, what a great bike park, it’s new and the trails are built pretty well with thought in mind. The Green Trail is nice and flowy, the blues have plenty of jumps and the black, FLIGHT RISH has an extreme cabin jump that will test your skills to the limit. The people were extremely friendly. The food was absolutely delicious and will be heading there next month to ride the final two days of the bike part on October 11 and 12th.

Great local to LA spot to get in some boarding! Went on a Monday and it wasn't too busy. Not all the lifts were open because we haven't had much rain but everything was running smoothly! They have free parking and $25 parking if you want to be closer. Their cafe is fully equipped with grab and go food. They have sandwiches and hot food items as well. Order your passes online and print them when you get there! It's so convenient and everyone there is so nice!! Had a blast and can't wait to go back!!
