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.

We participated in the Oktoberfest Celebration the past 2 weekends. Great family friendly contests and a fun polka band. Decent food choices and fantastic beers, imported and domestic. Prost!

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!!

Good times. Fun place to ride, they have lights so you can ride at night which is a lot of fun. Good vibes at the Cali Banked Slalom event!!! Had a great time will be back for sure. ✌️❤️

Wonderful ski resort. It's very close to Los Angeles, about 1.5 hr away. They have plenty of trails for everyone, and ski lift lines goes fast and smoothly. They also offer lessons, ski rentals, and lodging.

1st annual Oktoberfest at mtn High west had a fantastic turn out on 10/4/25. Weekend #2 should have another great turn out.

I’ve been here several times. Although it’s called a library, it actually feels more like a botanical garden — the area is huge. If you really enjoy wandering slowly and taking your time, you can easily spend the whole day here. I recommend reserving their afternoon tea; the atmosphere of sitting by the rose garden, sipping tea, and chatting is perfect for family gatherings, friends, or bringing kids along. My favorite part is the Chinese Garden — it’s incredibly similar to those in Suzhou, and it also reminds me a lot of Yuyuan Garden in Shanghai. Currently, the ticket price is about $29 on weekdays and $34 on weekends, which is a bit pricey, but they do offer one free admission day every month.

It never gets boring. No matter which time of the year, the garden has a priceless beauty. I personally like the wilder areas more than the highly architectural ones. Alltogether, this is always a nice showcase to take out-of-town guests, who typically as a little plus indulge in the store at the end of the day. PREVIOUS REVIEW 2 Such a beautiful place, particularly now in the spring when everything starts to blossom. Since my last visit (before Covid), several sections have been expanded, eg the Chinese Garden, and others are under construction. The Huntington remains a super fav! PREVIOUS REVIEW 1 What do the Huntington Library, the beach, and High Sierra (e.g. Mammoth) have in common? The incredible display of nature that make each one of them an irreplaceable ingredient for L.A. quality of life. No matter how full it is, there is always the inevitable peace to rebalance from the day-to-day stress. The richness of conjoined plants with their wilderness, beauty, danger, independence, and durability that spans decades and centuries but observes subtle human-made changes puts many things into perspective. And its beauty is simply relaxing… P.S. … never regretted the membership … (Originally posted by me on yelp)

Absolutely amazing experience. We went for our wedding anniversary and it was worth the money. We did the free tour around the grounds, plus we went through two of the museums and lots of the gardens. Our favorite was probably the rose gardens and the subtropical area but all of it was really pretty in it's own way. We will be back with our mother's soon. 😁

Absolutely brilliant visit today. The weather was perfect — warm but not too sunny — and there is plenty of shade throughout the gardens, which makes wandering the trails comfortable and relaxing. Accessibility was great as well. The pathways are wheelchair-friendly, and it’s easy to navigate between most of the major garden areas without feeling limited. One important note: buy tickets ahead of time. They can sell out for the day, especially on weekends or during special events, so planning ahead will save you the trouble. If it’s your first time, the must-see highlights are: • The Chinese Garden – peaceful water views, beautiful architecture • The Japanese Garden – serene paths, koi ponds, and iconic landscaping • The Rose Garden – colorful, fragrant, and perfect for photos It’s the kind of place you can spend hours exploring without even realizing it. A stunning and well-maintained escape in the middle of the city — highly recommend for locals and visitors alike.

I have been wanting to come here for a long time! Had to buy tickets online as it was a holiday and guess they are needed for Friday's, Saturday's and Sundays. Went right away in the morning and spent over 4.5 hours here! At over 100 plus acres and 16 themed gardens there is a lot of walking involved. Galleries to enjoy, gift shop ,tea house, cafés and more. Gardens included desert, Japanese, Australian, jungle, roses and many more. There was a cute water play area for children. I saw tram shuttle for people that wanted a ride back as some places are far away from the entrance and it got very warm. Definitely worth the price to see this beautiful place!

I can not wait to visit the museum and gardens again. I attended later in the day so I did not have enough time to spend in every garden but the taste I got on my first visit was a dream. There is nature everywhere. So many beautiful varieties of plants and flowers. Some of which I have never seen before. I spent most of my time in the gift shop and really had to hold back not spending too much money. It is well organized and caters to all lifestyles. The passionfruit vegan chocolate bar is thee best chocolate I have had. The Huntington is an amazing place to go alone, on a date or with family and friends. Perfect place for writing or people watching as well. They have free first Thursdays and if you own an EBT Calfresh card you will receive a discount. I was not too impressed with the food in the cafeteria area. There were tons of people getting food, tea and coffee. I was able to put a vegan meal together at the bowl place but the food was cold. The hot water spout for tea was not working so the guy on the other side had to give us hot water from the bar which was scolding hot. I thought to myself how dangerous that could be if I did not double my cup sleeve. The grab and go section was good. Fruit was super fresh and there was an area with desserts also. After I nibbled I walked until closing basically. After some time the people at the table are gone and you can just walk through to whatever garden you want but really it's only about 30 minutes before closing. Please visit. It a dream place to be.

Amazing hidden gem within San Marino area that most people don't realize has a world-class garden and multiple art galleries! Excellent place to bring the family from young to old to enjoy some beautiful outdoor setting and rare artworks. It also has a kids garden with play area and the food options are very healthy! It's not huge but they made it where there is endless landscapes taking you from one garden to the next. They offer multiple membership programs which also qualifies for tax write-off as donation to non-profit. The one we got allow us to go in as early as 8am which is an hour before it's opens at 9am. The membership is totally worth it and allows for many morning walks and exercises with barely anyone there.

beautiful large garden with lots of different sections full of plants and wildlife. also saw fish, turtles, frogs, and peacocks! they also have a cafe and a small gift shop. only con i’d say is this place is so big that it’s a little hard to navigate or tell where you are. i went here for the queen anne house and was pleasantly surprised with everything surrounding it. $14 for a student isn’t bad.

I had such a wonderful experience visiting the Los Angeles County Arboretum in Arcadia that I felt compelled to share it. This place is truly a hidden gem in the San Gabriel Valley—a perfect escape from the noise and rush of everyday life. From the moment I entered, I was amazed by how peaceful and beautifully maintained the grounds are. You can tell the staff and volunteers put so much care into every detail. The Arboretum is huge—over 100 acres—and every section has its own charm. I started my visit near the main entrance and immediately noticed the gorgeous peacocks roaming freely. They add such a magical touch, especially when they fan out their feathers or call to each other across the gardens. It felt like walking into a living painting. One of my favorite areas was the tropical greenhouse. The variety of plants and the humidity inside made me feel like I was deep in a rainforest. The waterfalls, orchids, and vibrant greenery were stunning. I also loved exploring the desert garden with its unique cactus and succulents—it’s amazing how they manage to thrive side by side with lush palms and water lilies just a few steps away. The historical Queen Anne Cottage and the lake nearby are must-sees. The cottage looks straight out of a movie (and in fact, it has been featured in several!). The lake area is so peaceful, with ducks gliding across the water and peacocks strutting along the path. I found a shady bench under a tree and just sat there enjoying the view for a while—it’s the kind of place where you can easily lose track of time. What really stood out to me was how clean, organized, and family-friendly everything was. The pathways are wide and easy to navigate, so it’s perfect for strollers or wheelchairs. There were plenty of rest areas, clean restrooms, and signs that make it easy to find your way around. I also appreciated that the staff were friendly and knowledgeable—they were happy to answer questions and share interesting facts about the plants. The gift shop was another pleasant surprise. It’s filled with unique garden-themed items, books, and plants you can actually take home. I picked up a small succulent and some local honey as souvenirs. The café had light snacks and drinks, which was great after a few hours of walking. Overall, the Arboretum is a perfect spot for nature lovers, photographers, families, or anyone needing a peaceful day outdoors. Whether you want to take a scenic walk, learn about plants, have a picnic, or just unwind, this place has something for everyone. I left feeling refreshed and grateful that such a beautiful, well-kept garden exists right here in Los Angeles County.

A-MAZE-ING Arcadia Escape! If you haven't been to the **LA County Arboretum in Arcadia**, you are seriously missing out on Southern California's best-kept secret—if that secret included 127 acres of pure tropical chaos and roughly 200 very loud celebrities. It is absolutely gorgeous. You can wander through a primeval jungle (where they actually filmed *Tarzan*!) and then stumble upon the historic **Queen Anne Cottage**, which is famously the house from *Fantasy Island*. So basically, you're hiking through Hollywood history with better air quality. But the real stars? The **peacocks**. They are everywhere, they are stunning, and they have zero concept of personal space. Expect to be dive-bombed by feathers and judged by their intense, glittering eyes as you try to enjoy your picnic. They are the most majestic, spoiled, and dramatic birds you will ever meet, and they are worth the price of admission alone. SN: Admission is free with Snap/Calfresh benefit card! **Go. Get lost. Take pictures. Just don't make eye contact with the peacocks, or you'll owe them your lunch.**

This place is beautiful. It's a big place that's great for exercising and looking at all the cool trees and plants. There are a lot of peacocks and geese. There's a nice big water fall in one area and if you walk up the stairs, you'll find a smaller water fall. You will see some fish and turtles. They have a big water fountain where the geese hangout at. Overall, I usually spend about 2 hours here. Wear walking shoes. Bring water and bug spray. It gets hot in the summer and the bugs come out at night. The free parking lot is fine until they throw an event. That's where you may have a hard time finding parking.

This place is really cool. If I lived locally I would be a member for sure. There's always more to see with the seasons. There are paved areas that are very easy to traverse and most of the unpaved areas are pretty smooth. There are ample places to sit and water fountains.

It’s very spacious and beautifully planned out. It has a calming vibe and plenty of spaces to sit with nature. I have lived in Los Angeles my entire life and I had no idea this place existed until a recent google search. I’m very grateful to have found this gem.

The Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Gardens is one of those treasures that feels almost impossible to believe exists in the middle of Los Angeles. Spread across 127 acres, it’s more than just gardens—it’s a living museum of plants, architecture, and history. You can easily spend an entire day wandering the themed gardens: the waterfalls tucked into lush greenery, the expansive succulent and desert gardens, the tropical greenhouses, and even the peaceful bamboo groves. Every corner feels like a different world, and yet it all flows together into one incredible open space that makes you forget you’re minutes from the freeway. It’s also a cultural hub. This weekend I attended the Inter-City Cactus and Succulent Show and Sale, one of the best plant events in the country, filled with knowledgeable growers, amazing specimens, and pottery that blurs the line between art and nature. But beyond the special events, the Arboretum is always worth a visit. The historic Queen Anne Cottage (famous from TV and movies) is a beautiful centerpiece, and the Baldwin-era architecture scattered throughout gives you a sense of California history alongside the natural beauty. Families will love the wide-open lawns and trails, kids are fascinated by the free-roaming peacocks, and plant lovers can get lost in the collections for hours. An annual membership is a no-brainer—it’s not just admission, it’s access to one of the most inspiring and restorative spaces in Los Angeles.

such a fun place. came here for father’s day. snack bar food is reasonably priced. you’ll want to bring cash to place bets. bring your own pen or pencil to mark your race day program. there is seating in general admission area but bring a parasol or big hat to keep out of the sun. this venue will allow you to bring in your reusable water bottle && they have stations where you can fill it with water for free.

Great history and grounds, beautiful day. Security staff was kind and helpful with information. Staff at South entrance was rude and unhelpful when we asked where we go to just see the park, we were aware it's off season but wanted to check out the area for fun. Also, grounds opened at 9:15 and we were unable to watch the horses breeze, contrary to what the website said (5:30-9:30 training should be open to the public)

i thought the horses were racing based on the website but they only race on weekends 😔 the security let me in for free and said i could roam around but security might ask me what’s up, so far no one has so that’s good. it was a little confusing to find the track and i found the betting room first, but the track has a cool mountain backdrop and the grounds are cute as well. it was really a 3 star experience but i think if the horses were there it’d be 4 so i’ll bump it up.

Beautiful venue with plenty of shaded seating. Came on a Friday and admission and parking was free. They do sell food onsite but know that the food prices are exactly as you'd expect from a sports venue. There's multiple TV's for viewing the race if you're not outside and they also stream races from across the country. Betting machines give you the option to bet on races not held at Santa Anita. Each and every race holds a level of excitement and the atmosphere always feels electric. If you've got the time and you want to enjoy something simple like horseracing, I'd recommend this track. Obviously, no expectations to bet but still enjoyable without putting money on the line. Note: There are two different machines. One for placing money on a voucher and another for actual betting that you insert said voucher into.

I went to Santa Anita Racetrack on Belmont Stakes Day! 6/7/2025. And they had a car show in the infield. I had no idea that this Bomb Club Car Show was going to be this Spectacular. There were 500 cars on display with tons of So Cal Car Clubs. They had vendors, food trucks, wrestling and live music. I like how Santa Anita has a huge screen with seating, so you can watch the races and we’re able to watch the Belmont stakes race. I will definitely be back. The whole day went smoothly and it was a major success.

We went to Santa Anita Park on a Friday afternoon since there was no school that day. Admission was free, which was a nice bonus. Because it was a regular workday, the place wasn’t crowded — calm and quiet overall. One thing to note: there was only one live teller on-site. Some machines were for vouchers only, and no one seemed to be using them, which made things confusing for first-time visitors. There weren’t any staff around to help explain how it worked, so it took us a while to figure things out. I put in $6 for my kids and placed a show bet. Their guess was right — two of the horses they picked ended up finishing first and second. It added some fun and excitement to the visit.

For Memorial Day weekend they had a carnival inside the track. My two littles had fun. We tried the food, we bet on horses, we met and touched some of the lead horses and even got to greet the outriders who were very friendly. They let us take photos. A kind lady had carrots and she taught my son to feed one of the horses. We appreciated that. We visited the gift shop and got two small horse plushies. The gift shop has so many things I would love to gift to my hubby!! Gave the kids the grand tour of the clubhouse. Got them a turkey sandwich for all of us to share - we couldn’t even finish it with the 3 of us - there was so much thick cut turkey! Rode all the rides, played all the games, were there from 1-7 ish. No line to get in, up front parking, easy betting. On the way out we were given two giant cotton candy bags from another kind lady, thank you.

We had a great time! The lines moved as we expected for a Saturday. The slides were super fun! Loss of star for two attractions being closed. The drop out slides and the pool where the Lilly pads are. Food was good, lots of choices for all lifestyles. Overall a great time!

I visited the water park recently, and unfortunately, the overall experience was quite disappointing. The park feels very outdated — a lot of the infrastructure looks old and definitely in need of renovation. The rides themselves were okay — nothing too special, but they did the job. Unfortunately, it was hard to enjoy them because the waiting times were extremely long. We had to wait between one and two hours for almost every attraction, which really tested our patience. There was hardly any shade or seating in the waiting areas, which made the experience even more uncomfortable. Overall, the visit was underwhelming. For the price, we expected a lot more — especially better crowd management and perhaps some more modern attractions. If you’re planning to visit this park, be prepared for very long wait times and a rather outdated experience.

A place that’s even better than I expected. Although the ticket price is a bit expensive and comes with various additional fees, buying a ticket that includes a meal makes it relatively more affordable. There are all kinds of water slides, and it’s a great spot to visit occasionally during the summer. Just be careful of sunburn and slipping.

My family had a blast at Raging Waters.💜We visited September 7, 2025. The parking was $25 and you ride a shuttle to the park. The ticket line wasn't long you scan it at a kiosk. The lines were kinda long but not as bad as some say. There is something for everyone to enjoy.Will come again next summer!

This review is based mainly on hygiene, food, and amenities. The park all in all needs a good cleaning. Since there aren’t enough places for people to settle their belongings, nor for grandparents to rest while waiting, one must search for an empty little corner, but what one can find is trash, food containers, and forgotten items. Not very welcoming for the elderly that just go along to be with family. The bathrooms are filthy and the stench of urine is terrible. Power washing is not enough with the amount of people they allow in. There are many good cleaning products for example Ajax with beach, Clorox, etc. and the work wonders when used with a brush. The food, we paid ahead with the ticket and we regretted it. First, the wait in line at Sharky’s was 45 minutes!!! For nasty, extremely salty hard french fries and dry chicken tenders. The waffles were toasted and there is nothing other than catsup for the $16 dollar average size hotdog. We only rode 3 slides, visited the beach and river for 20 minutes each.

Was a pretty cool water park. Gotta get there early to avoid the lines. Parking is a rip i think . $25 for general parking which is like a mile away. You have to take a tram to the park. Or 75$ for preferred parking which is right next to entrance.

There are a lot of different rides and slides, which makes it fun but you will always have to wait long lines (unless you have the expensive VIP tickets). It would be a 10/10 experience if we didn’t have to spend 75% of our time waiting in the lines. The staff were very friendly and helpful. You can rent the overpriced lockers to leave your belongings. There are plenty of showers and bathrooms.

Clean, well-maintained, and pleasant shopping experience · *Free parking:* Huge plus - no hassle finding a spot! · *Family-friendly:* Perfect for a fun day out with loved ones · *Great restaurants:* Outdoor seating areas make dining a delight Highly recommended for anyone looking for discounts and a great shopping vibe! I’m so down to explore Citadel Outlet It’s an open-air shopping paradise.

Citadel Outlet is one of the best shopping places in Los Angeles. There is a huge selection of brands, constant discounts, and great sales. The area is beautiful, clean, and designed like a fortress — it looks impressive. Parking is convenient and the staff is always helpful. Today I walked around the stores and found everything I wanted, and at great prices. The atmosphere is always pleasant here, perfect for walking, relaxing, and enjoying shopping. Highly recommend!

A very nice shopping place, where we visit frequently. It's adjacent to the 5 freeway. So for most of the time, coming here is not a problem. However, if you come late, you may have a hard time finding a parking spot. A lot of good shops are here. It's worth a visit, if you haven't done so

This a solid outlet mall. Basically every storefront is populated with major brands, there are some decent food options, vending all over, and - critically - large and clean bathrooms! The location isn't "convenient" per se, but right of the 5, we find ourselves at least passing it pretty often. Whenever we stop, we usually find something worth checking out. Mostly clothing and fashion, but there are a few housewares stores, cafes, chocolates, other luxury goods, and novelties. The major drawback is parking. The way it's laid out always kind of makes entering feel like a bottleneck. There's a big lot in the middle for valet, and you sort of have to either park in the structure near the front and walk, or drive through the whole thing to get to the surface lot. Either way, you're stuck going through this little entry drive. But once you're in, it's a good an outlet mall experience as you're likely to find anywhere.

A lot of good brands and clean restroom Less option for food and no sitting inside for a coffee if you are going in the hot weather. They just have tables and chairs outside Need more big trees to walk under the sun

Truly an LA favorite — awesome spot! Smart, dynamic, and super friendly service. We were treated well everywhere, every store. I’ll keep coming back. Best place around!

This shopping center was wonderful to visit. Many stores to shop and buy things. Very exciting experience. Easy free parking available. The mall has good restaurants and clean bathrooms. Everything you need in one place. Good location in Los Angeles for shopping.

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.

Had the best walk with my husband here today.. giant garden comes with a guided map, restrooms are available thru out, lots of benches to take breaks on and to admire the beauty of the park or to listen to the array of birds, watch the squirrels 🐿️ having fun and bunny rabbits enjoying their snacks. Def worth the yearly pass just to come take your daily walks at, bonus because it’s safe/secure! Wheelchair and stroller accessible 👍

Took my mom here for a Mother’s Day walk. It was nice to see the native plants and learn more. Plenty of areas to sit with shade. Would definitely recommend bringing water.

I went about an hr before closing and it was such a magical experience, despite being close to closing time. I’d recommend coming with enough time to take in all the sounds and views. There’s so much beauty to see and a secret around every corner.

The Botanical Garden is a natural haven for planners who want to incorporate lush greenery and serene outdoor settings into their events. From ceremonies under the trees to receptions surrounded by vibrant blooms, this venue creates an enchanting atmosphere. 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!

Love this mall which is mostly outdoors. The stores have cold cold A/C and the grounds were very clean for as many people were there visiting. We enjoyed our experience and found even the large parking lots accommodating and convenient.

Pretty awesome place. Youve got the Library to study at, the gym to workout. Then there's my favorite bar at dog house with a good bite to eat. The bass pro isn't far away and the movie theater is always an option too. Plenty of parking and plenty of stores to visit.

On a visit to nearby Express for men we visited a Chinese food restaurant called Seven Grams. The food was so good, you can taste the fine ingredients. The staff is very attentive and their smiles seemed genuine. The price was just right for the taste and quality and quantity.

We always love to come and shop at Victoria Gardens shopping mall. It's more upscale compared to other outlets. Many stores and food courts. Some cars cruise by with high speed! Make sure you look around before crossing.

Good place to walk and shop with family. During the Christmas season they dispense fake snow in the central plaza and place a ginormous Christmas tree with lights all around. Open late good selection of restaurants and fun activities around.

This is a fantastic outdoor mall location. Well placed with a great mix of classic well known shops, great eats and mom and pop shops. There is a theater and plenty of sitting areas, parking and fun things to see. There are surrounding stores and restaurants to visit as well. Ample parking and close to freeway.

This a Truly, amazing experience at Victoria Gardens, very very captivating during the Christmas season, with the trees and lights shinning in the night, songs Caroling, Shops busy and bustling with people, as we're approaching to the end of the year 2025. Time does fly, but in the end, it's a really good memory you and all of you will never forget, and "*Most wonderful time of the year*"

Amazing NASCAR Experience!!! The NASCAR Racing Experience is one of the best NASCAR schools in America! For anyone who wants speed and thrills, come to this experience! The team is really awesome and nice, and the drivers are great! And the experience itself is really awesome!! For anyone who wants speed, come to this experience! It’s a ton of fun!

The roar of the engines is defending and the gush of wind that follows is tremendous while more than you can count race cars go flying across the track at 180, 190+ mph miles per hr. It's hardcore entertainment.

Have you ever dreamed of getting behind the wheel of a real NASCAR race car? Well, believe it or not, this is a dream that can come true with a visit to the Richard Petty Driving Experience in nearby Fontana. During this incredible experience, you’ll drive an authentic NASCAR race car. These cars have been driven by NASCAR greats, and you never know, you may end up driving one that was driven by one of your racing heroes.

So much fun

Never go here. Horrendous service with shady last minute cancellations and no refunds. Crazy that a place like this is allowed to operate a business.

🏁🏁🏁🚘

This is no longer here regularly , try rusty wallce racing instead

My friends and family went. We were a group of 35. Very accommodating. I think the staff had a hard time to pinpoint who the leader of the group was. There was a miscommunication with the picture taking. The food was alright, I like it better at Medevil Times. The show was good and long too so it's great for kids especially. I would recommend and come back again. I'm not sure if I would come back as a group of 35 again.

We had such a fun time at Pirates Dinner Adventure! From the moment we walked in, the energy was high, the atmosphere was exciting, and the staff was welcoming. The show was action-packed, full of acrobatics, sword fights, and even some audience participation—which the kids absolutely loved. Our whole family (kids ages 5, 7, and 14) was completely entertained from start to finish. The performers were engaging and kept everyone laughing and cheering. Surprisingly, the food was also really great! Everything came out hot and well-prepared. We especially enjoyed the roasted chicken and the dessert was a nice finish to the meal. Overall, it was a memorable experience that we would highly recommend for families looking for a unique and fun night out. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in the area!

Great experience! The show, atmosphere, drinks, and service was great! The food was alright. However, they do have options if you are vegetarian, vegan, and/or have dietary restrictions. My husband and I were asked to be a part of one of the games during the show and that was a lot of fun. The alcoholic drinks are strong! You get the keep the glass the drinks come in and if you decide attend another day, bring the glass and you get your drink at the refill price. I would definitely see this show again. I highly recommend it!

Look, the only reason that I'm giving the food a 4 out of 5 stars is because I wish the main dish was a bigger portion. Other than that, the food was delicious. It's a good thing (for me at least) that you can order various appetizers to add to your meal. And the 6 appetizers that my family and I tried here were equally as delicious. I especially enjoyed the fried calamari. As for the cocktails, I enjoyed a few rounds (since my wife was driving this evening) and each cocktail was just as delicious as the previous. Also, each one was made with double shots, so they were particularly potent... for all you out there who enjoy a nice, strong drink. The show and entertainment are the biggest draws here. The various acts and performances were all entertaining and delightful to watch. The musical numbers were all well done and were a joy to watch as the performers did their absolute best during each act. The overall story is a tad predictable, but I still found myself engrossed and entertained by the end of the night. It was especially fun to see all the audience participation during the show, with extra fun as I watched all three of my kids get in on the fun as they were called up to the stage to assist during various acts. (A big shout out to Antonio, the Yellow Pirate, whose section we were a part of this evening. He was particularly fun to watch and cheer on.) One thing I especially want to point out was the quality of the service we received. On this particular night, our server was Wendy, and she did an excellent job in getting us out drinks, meals, and desserts in a speedy manner. And she was cheerful and delightful every time she came by our table. Hopefully, when we return, we'll have the pleasure of having her as our server once again. (Seriously, a big thank you Wendy, you were the best!) A family night out here can get a bit pricey, but for the food, entertainment, atmosphere, and overall experience you will have here, I think it's well worth the price. My family and I left the show already planning for a return visit before the end of the year.

The show was interactive and fun, food was mid but i really enjoyed the tender roasted turkey leg. The mash was boxed and veggies, frozen. Service and performance, excellent. Great for children and families. Used the discount code and got seated in the far left corner, with the worst view though.

this dinner adventure is amazing. the atmosphere is so detailed and the stunts are beyond fantastic! the actors are so fun and great with both kids and adults- kids are constantly let into stage/boats in a great, interactive way! definitely worth the cost- additionally, surprisingly, it’s a musical! fantastic singers, actors, and especially stuntmen! the strength of these actors are unbelievable!

Such a wonderful place! The staff and actors are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The show starts right on time (or very close to it), and everything runs smoothly. I recommend arriving at least 15 minutes early to really take in the atmosphere. There’s a gift shop at the entrance — not the cheapest, but full of fun items that add to the experience. We purchased VIP tickets, and they were absolutely worth it! Sitting up front kept my 3-year-old and 1-year-old completely entertained the entire time. The food was good — not Michelin-star level, but definitely solid and satisfying. Overall, a great outing for families with little ones. Highly recommend!

What a fun experience! We had a great time. Food could use some help! Good thing Porto’s is next store lol. The staff was amazing. All the little extras are nice and all the sword variety was kinda cool to see. Definitely be prepared to spend money on the gift shop!

My husband and I took our four teens to dinner. It was quite pricey, but alot of fun. The main meal was pretty good and we all enjoyed it. The servers were quick and the food came out hot. The dessert however was very lack luster! Normal meals got a small eclair which was terrible. I upgraded our tickets when we arrived, which included a dessert upgrade to cake. The cake was also terrible. It was a dry vanilla cake with gritty frosting on it. I was pretty disappointed as the upgrade was pretty expensive. The show was a fun idea; however, i did note that more than one horse seemed overly stressed. However, I observed the riders regularly reassuring them and giving treats. I did not see any inappropriate handeling of the horses and they were all of good weight and appeared healthy. It is EXTREMELY loud! I wouldn't spend the money again, but it made for a fun memory.

Was seated with Res Knight. He was the clear dominant knight of the whole group. Despite revealing his rebellious association with the Catalan off shoot he really screwed up the reveal and ended up having all the knights turn against him. If he was smart he would have behaved himself during the joust. Then, when the time was right he could have snuck behind stage and slayed the king. The Queen clearly wanted his D so she would have probably been ok with it. Instead his hubris got him slayed and he didn’t get the girl. Also, it’s ridiculous how much money. Medieval Times is printing. The novelty of the utensiless food was fun as a child but coming back as an adult, my $75 experience was probably a $3 meal. If you are going to continue with that, that’s fine but I think they should replace all the amplifying recorded music with live musicians. They can certainly afford it and it would really go a long way to help with the immersion. Plus I am sure everyone would love to jam with a talented bard.

First time here and I really enjoyed it. Food was good, service was excellent and the show was awesome. My 8 year old and I were screaming and cheering the whole show. Definitely would recommend to go check it out.

The seating was tight but the food was good. The atmosphere was fun and entertaining. We had a blast with our school group. There are fun extras you can purchase like swords, hats, drinks that glow and tons more!

My family and I have been coming here for years. I have not been since they have redone the story. So this is as of Nov 8th 2025. This was the best show I have ever gone to. We paid for the VIP for my son's birthday and got front row. We had the black and white knight. Dude was Jon snow but the American version. He picked up on our energy (first timers read: Get loud, have fun, cheer non stop) food was amazing! I don't know if it's nostalgia but I could drink a gallon of the soup. Fights were longer and seemed better choreographed. The king and queen were top notch, falcon showing was way longer than in previous years and they really got close! The whole thing was amazing. Also our chancellor dude was like 7' tall and you could tell her wasn't feeling all that well but he put on a great show. (As a fellow tall person it's great to see tall knights) I had so much fun, my family had so much fun, our knight gave my daughter a rose and a sash.. she won't stop talking about it. Just the best time. If you can afford it, please treat yourself. It's absolutely amazing.

My children and I went on a field trip with our charter school recently and let me tell you, those kids had so much fun! It was so interactive and entertaining. They got to eat with their hands and scream at the top of their lungs cheering. So they had a great time, would recommend to families who had kids who can handle loud noises, darkness at times and RP fighting.

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.

Candlelight performance was better than I thought. Really cool atmosphere and music. Beatles theme tonight. Cool performance with a mini bar. Easy parking and getting in.

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.

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!

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. This is always a fun event and not our first time with Candlelight Concerts. Young and old were there tonight and we look forward to seeing another show from Fever and Candlelight Concerts.

Attended a concert at the Nixon Library in Orange CA. The quartet played Fleetwood Mac and they did so beautifully! The candles made the venue look all the more cozy and dramatic, the whole experience was wonderful.

We celebrated a birthday. Food is $40-50 per person. Very few trees, and we had to sit in the sun all day. That's the only unpleasant thing. We waited for a few hours for a place under an umbrella to become free. A boy started drowning in the waves, and the rescuers saved him. They did a great job. You can trust children! Thanks to the rescuers.

We visited Knott’s Soak City on a Sunday with our three kids. Overall, it was fun — but there are a few things to know in advance if you want the best experience. Parking was a challenge. It cost $35, which we expected, but by noon it was completely full. We spent nearly 20 minutes circling the lot, and the one-way parking lanes were poorly marked and confusing. Our kids got discouraged thinking we’d have to leave, but luckily we caught someone leaving and followed them to their spot. The park itself is lively but packed, which is understandable for a hot summer weekend. We started with the Lazy River — unfortunately, it wasn’t very “lazy” without a float. Only about 20% of people had access to float tubes, and the rest were standing around or wading through. The real issue though was the flooring: the surface was extremely rough. My wife and I both got cuts on our toes, and all three of our kids had scrapes or cuts on their fingers. It felt like walking on coarse sandpaper — something we’ve never experienced at other water parks. That said, there were still plenty of enjoyable areas. The slides were exciting, the wave pool was great for the kids, and the splash zones were well-designed and shaded. We noticed some families brought in their own food and drinks (smart move), but we didn’t — and paid high prices for basic snacks and drinks. If we return, we’ll bring water shoes and pack our own cooler without question. Final verdict: There’s fun to be had here, but you have to plan ahead — especially for float access, food, and foot protection. The park needs to address the flooring issue seriously; safety shouldn’t be compromised. That said, our family made some great memories, and with better prep next time, we’d be more ready to enjoy it fully.

Fun in the sun and it couldn’t have been more perfect for my kids since they love the water, me, not so much! I recommend coming to the water park on weekdays as there are less people and you can get more rides in. Park open at 10 and most people are lined up by 930. Parking is 35, if you are local, probably uber there is cheaper. I recommend getting a food pass for 51$ as you can get food every 90 minutes and drinks every 15 minutes. Once’s you get in find a place to park your stroller or wagon. They do allow you to bring in food and water , which is so good because my kids find American food harder to chew bc it is drier. Plenty of smaller playground for younger kids. Get on all the rides first thing and then do lazy river and wave pool. Pack extra towels and a picnic blanket bc there is a place to do that! We barely used the chair bc after being in the water, the kids were cold and needed to dry out.

We visited Soak City on a weekday during the summer and it was very busy—seemed to be at full capacity. We arrived later in the day, so finding available seating was tough. I’d definitely recommend bringing your own chairs and an umbrella for the grassy areas. Getting through security was a bit of a hassle—my keys, phone, and the zipper on my toiletries bag triggered the scanner and turned the process into a full 5-minute ordeal. Once inside, the atmosphere was fun and family-friendly. We enjoyed the lazy river, and although there was about a 10-minute wait for floating tubes, it wasn’t bad. Food-wise, the pizza line was long, but the cafe with burgers and fries moved much quicker. Unfortunately, my phone got ruined—next time I’d bring a better waterproof pouch or just leave it in the car. Overall, we had a great time and I would definitely visit again!

Main themes: tidal wave, floating village, lots of fund with little kids facilities, various straight and spinning slides, recommend a seasonal ticket, be prepared with a soft wet flip flop, walking on all pool areas seemed spiky and get bleeding easily, maker sure you get sun burn protection, drink lots of water, stay safe, security teams were sufficient and reliable.

So much fun! Season passes to Knott's and Soak City are definitely worth it. The kids love it every time we visit.

Had a wonderful time with my kids. The wait in line was no more than 15 minutes on some slides. The food was very expensive. I do not recommend eating there, especially if it is a big group. The pizza was $66! Our favorite ride was the Lazy River and The Wedge.

I smell a strong odor of propane coming from the back . This can't be safe

Great delivery as usual.

Smells horrible

Yucaipa Regional Park truly lives up to its "huge" reputation, offering a vast expanse for a variety of outdoor activities. The park provides ample opportunities for recreation, from numerous ponds and walking trails to a swimming pool with water activities. You can even enjoy paddle boating for an additional $12 per hour. For those who enjoy angling, fishing is also an option, though it comes with an extra fee. Entry to the park is $15 per car, with the same fee applying if you wish to use the swimming pool. While the park boasts many public restrooms, their cleanliness leaves much to be desired, which is a significant drawback. On a brighter note, there are well-equipped picnic areas with BBQ facilities, making it an excellent spot for a family outing. The park offers beautiful scenic views, enhanced by several large pine trees that add to its natural charm. You'll find plenty of free parking, and the overall atmosphere is quite and peaceful, making it a relaxing escape. It's also a pet-friendly environment, so your furry friends can join in the fun. For families with children, the park offers kid-friendly activities, including soccer playing areas and dedicated playgrounds. Yucaipa Regional Park is a good choice for those seeking a spacious outdoor park with a wide range of activities. Its size, scenic beauty, and family-friendly amenities are definite highlights. However, the cleanliness of the restrooms is an area that significantly detracts from the overall experience and could be improved.

Great humongous beautiful Green park and campground with fishing ponds that don’t really seem to contain any fish. But the facilities has paddle boats and entire water park section with a beach that hasn’t been used in over five years and the snack bar even has all dusty spiderwebs going from the windows to the counter showing how long it’s been since they’ve actually used these wonderful things they built when they built this park. And perhaps maybe stocking the pond with actual fish might be smart sometime soon since there were others fishing there that spent money on their activity and came to this location for recreational fun camping and fishing, and they seemed quite disappointed as was I.

Excellent work and professionalism I am very happy with the work that JC Wallpaper Hanging did in my house. From the first contact they were very friendly, punctual and attentive to every detail. The installation of the wallpaper was impeccable, with high quality finishes and just as I imagined it. You can see the experience and care they have in their work. I recommend them 100% if you are looking to give a special touch to your walls!

Had never driven through this park before after wanting to for many years. $10 entry fee gets you lots to see and do for the day. RV Camping: overnight area was ok but not too convenient to any of the lake areas. Tent Camping: $100 gets you a large camping site for 20+ tents. Too bad there aren't any smaller individual campng areas right next to a few of the fishing lake spots. Overall a great park to spend the entire day relaxing or family outings. Water slides looked fun. Will definitely come back when I have the whole day to stay. Just did a "drive thru" to check it out and on one of my stops around the lake had a bald eagle fly right over my head.

Beautiful place ! Absolutely beautiful, you can ride your bike, walk around. Is a safety place , awesome atmosphere, nice parks for our kids , lakes , trees 🌲!! Just visit this place , your family, kids and pets are going to love it 🥰

Yesterday, Sunday, we were there. A very, very excellent place. You feel very comfortable with the blazing sun and the water at an excellent temperature for swimming.

Excellent park for a walk in nature with lakes, big trees and hills. Lots of parking and restrooms available.

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.

Drove all the way from San Diego, Visitor Center closed. They should have listed it on their website CLEARLY. WE ARE CLOSED DUE TO COVID !!! The security guard that met us at the entrance said “I keep telling Maria to change that “ Very inconsiderate

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. IS THIS WHAT FENDER HAS BECOME??? Anyway it looks terrible, not the quality you would expect from Fender.

Even with covid restrictions lifted fender does not want the public to tour. I don't want to buy from them then. No where was it listed they are closed to the public and they don't offer a phone number to call.

Awesome! Amazing to see the dedication and hard work that goes into every guitar and amp.

When you see the craftsmanship, it is impressive. My fellow Americans should see made in America at work.

(Translated by Google) A sacred place for guitar lovers. I think the tours were every Thursday. Be sure to make a reservation. 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. (Original) ギター好きには聖地そのもの。 見学は毎週木曜だったかな。かならず予約して行きましょう。 たまに日本人のガイドがつく事もあるそうですが、基本的には工場のスタッフがガイドしてくれます。 サンダルでは入れないのでご注意を。

My Father is here and the entire property is so beautiful. The office managers and those that manage the grounds are simply wonderful and keep the entire area the way in which one could only imagine. Heavenly blessings to us all

BEAUTIFUL to see how our Beloved MILITARY are honored. I can't visit my Grandpa's cemetery right now so coming here I can pray for him and all our Loved ones. GOD bless our Country and thank U to ALL our Soldiers! 🤗🩵✝️🇺🇲

A beautiful cemetery. Well-kept and beautiful landscape, waterfalls and the employees are very helpful, kind amd respectful. We had our family members ceremony here and the entire process was amazing. I love how its huge and right next to the museum as well.

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.

Absolutely gorgeous grounds, very peaceful and serene. It would be nice if location (section) markers were a little bit more visible, but I understand they are trying to maintain the natural beauty of the land.

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

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.

All I can say is go and check this place out. If you love planes and military artifacts it’s a must see. The guys who work here are some of the nicest people I have met! Took my son who is 14 and we had a great time! The amount of things they have at this museum is unbelievable!! I would highly recommend a visit!! Thank you gentleman it was a pleasure!

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. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in our Air Force and military defenses. It's a great place to bring kids and learn invaluable history. 10/10 would recommend.

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!!!

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.

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.

This is a good place to visit if you are interested in California mission history. The original building was destroyed by an earthquake in 1812, and the church ruins and a variety of other original elements remain. Renovations in the 1970s brought reproductions of the many buildings, rooms, and a small chapel. There are beautiful gardens, and a museum gift shop. The swallows don't visit like they used to due to so much activity in the area. It cost $15 to enter, and we were there for about an hour

Alright California!! This Place is Cali Gold. The Historic Value of this place is Second to None. There is so Much History in its relationship to the Development of California. The grounds are very very well kept and the Guided tour is a must to get the most out of this Mission. Visit the Chapel on sight and the Ruins of the Original Chapel. Wow it's incredible. Great for Photos, a Date Day, and exploring for the whole family. Don't miss it. It's incredible and a must see for everyone!

We had the opportunity to photograph S & K's first look at Mission San Juan Capistrano, and it was truly a dream setting for capturing timeless portraits. From the soft stone textures to the iconic arches and bell wall, every corner of the Mission offered a stunning visual backdrop. The light was beautiful throughout the day, filtered, warm, and natural, ideal for both candid and editorial shots. There’s a peaceful, historic charm to the space that elevated the emotional energy of the first look, creating a moment that felt private, sacred, and cinematic. We would highly recommend the Mission to couples looking for a location that combines California history, natural beauty, and elegant architecture. It’s a gem for storytelling. — Anastasia

Mission San Juan Capistrano is one of my favorite places to visit because it holds a lot of fond memories for me. There have been many changes to the mission - especially after the pandemic. The East Gate is no longer open. You have to go through the tour to get into the original chapel. This was the side entrance we used to enter through when we went to Sunday morning Mass as a family. I love that the original Serra Chapel is still intact so visitors can marvel at the intricate details of the altar, handpainted walls, wooden pews, and the St. Peregrine Chapel. The grounds are also well-maintained and I especially love every bit of Mission San Juan Capistrano. Some of the newer things I liked was how they cleaned up the fountain and added koi fish. Overall, I love MSJC and how much of its history is preserved to this day. It’s a beautiful site to visit and to pray. I also always end my visits with a trip to their gift shop. The ladies who work there are wonderful.

What a beautiful, well maintained mission! Although there is now a fee to enter, it’s well worth the price. You can spend an hour or a day just walking the gardens and visiting the chapel. At the exit, there is a church store fulled with books, cards, collectibles, and other artifacts. It’s a fun outing! We are glad we took the time to visit!

This is such a beautiful mission. My kids had a fun time walking/running around and exploring. We were on vacation for my son’s Birthday and they gave us a discounted price because of that ❤️ Some of the areas were not easily accessible with our stroller - so my husband and I had to lift the stroller and carry it up the stairs to get around to the area on the path (the walkway was blocked due to set up for an event). Thankfully we could do that. We probably spent about 2 hours here. I do want to revisit with my kids and see the things we didn’t spend much time looking at. There is plenty of parking around - outside you just have to drive around to find it.

This is a beautiful and well taken care of Mission. Lots of stories told here about the indigenous people and how this Mission was successful and created things for trade. This place takes you back in time and explains the story of the swallow. I live in the area now and bring friends here to enjoy the beauty!

again, I'm not your typical reviewer who gives out 5 stars like free bottle water... it must meet all categories for a park to be considered superb. 1. ample parking! and also for motor home and trailers 2. Great walk paths within the park and extending south to capristrano beach, in and put of the water canal trails leading to mission viejo. for all bikers, Joggers runners and walkers. 3. a great eatery thats seeves beer and drinks and local plates right on the besch front. 4. tables and grills are widely available 5. life guard stations manned and ready 6. break water that's accessible and provides extraordinary views sounds and resting points. 7. for all ages, kids adults and for seniors. 8. surfing, paddling, swimming and sunbathing 9. downtown area provides places to grab some grub siteseeing , and window shopping 10. couple hours of entertainment for the family or by yourself a strong 4.5 to 4.75 missing... beach firepits, water fountains and more shower spots closer to the beachfront .

We had such a wonderful time at Doheny State Beach! We came with our 3-year-old son and it was the perfect spot for a family day. The beach is clean, safe, and easy to access. The waves near the shore are gentle, which made it great for little ones to splash and play without us worrying. There are plenty of picnic areas with shade, which made snack time and breaks really comfortable. Our son loved running around in the sand and watching the surfers further out in the water. The bathrooms were well-kept and convenient to get to, which is always a huge plus with a toddler. We also appreciated the family-friendly atmosphere—lots of other kids and families enjoying the day, but it never felt overcrowded. It’s such a relaxed environment, and parking was simple too. We’ll definitely be coming back. Doheny State Beach is now one of our go-to spots for a safe, fun, and stress-free beach day with our little one! 🌊☀️👶

We stopped there during our morning walk to the beach, and while used to the coastline beaches, we really enjoyed our time here. Besides being conveniently located within Dana point, it has a decent surf spot, highly frequented though and a few good amenities (picnic area, toilets…) - there is also a large paid parking in case you drive down there.

Beautiful beach, clean, safe and easily accessible. The waves are not too strong and there are some volley ball courts on the smaller side of the beach. Picnic tables are on the lawn side. Great spot!

There is a lot to love about this beach. Super clean restrooms, easy access to the cafe, loads of picnic tables and bbq pits, and more. We absolutely loved our time here and will be coming back. The only knock is the beach is very rocky if you plan to get into the water you need booties.

Beautiful clean place. The staff here is on the money when it comes to keeping the areas maintained along with the people. No craziness here. Everyone kept to themselves and maintained a great environment for everyone

Spent the night in my van at the campground. I had a doctors appointment in Laguna and instead of driving home, hour and a half, I spent the night and metal detected. I had a front row, closest to the water, about $75. Worth every penny. I managed to get about $3 back metal detecting 😂😂 _/🚶🏽.

This is my favorite place to go. It helps me recharge and just enjoy the view.

It is a very pretty pretty harbor and great to walk for your health, while enjoying the scenery. But you do have to pay for parking.

We visited Dana Point Harbor while we were staying at the Waldorf Astoria Resort. It was nice walking around the harbor, shopping, eating, and seeing a bunch of boats. There is a lovely park at the harbor as well, so we got to see a bunch of dogs while we were there which was fun. It was nice to see people out and about on water and on land. If you are looking for a nice place to walk around in Dana Point, the harbor is a great place to go.

My favorite place to relax! Animal life watching, walking paths, and peaceful waters.

An awesome place to visit. Good landscape and clean.

Great place to take care of the day. Beach pass.

Lovely place to wander around and take in some of the boutiques and eateries. Not too pricy, given the location and plenty of free parking available. Also get glimpses of fish, crabs, pelicans, cormorants and maybe seals.

Got engaged on the balloon tide in the morning. Had a two for one deal on wine tasting. Leo was very knowledgeable about his company's wine and others as well. This was my fiancé and my first wine tasting and LEO was able to assist with any and all questions. He made our first experience worth it and will be back to do again. Thanks Leo.

Family owned and operated vineyard and winery. Very small, 2,000 bottles a year. We are taking a bottle of their Rhône style Blend -The Republic, and a bottle of their Zinfandel. The young man behind the counter was very knowledgeable of their wines. If you want to visit a small vineyard with excellent wine, not a big fancy building but in a rural country setting then go and visit them. You won’t regret being there!

The definition of comfortable and down to Earth Space: only outdoor seating and I love it. Wjy come to a beautiful vineyard to stay in a bricked off room. Shaded seats via umbrella but I understand if it's a hot day (it was comfortable at 75f). Beautiful seating makes you feel like you're sitting in the garden, and a great overlook over the vineyard. Service: So friendly and chill. Nothing against the more "polished" locations, but casual clothed, friendly, knowledgeable and personable is great. Wines: Delish, unique wines. Everything was abovr average with a few standouts (Cab and Cabernet Franc). We were lucky to come on a day that they had a special tasting menu. A little more on the pricey end ($30 tasting and $16 pours) for Temecula but if you're looking for a great hidden gem, definitely a standout.

The wines are well presented and full of flavor. The vineyard and outdoor tasting area is delightful. My favorite was the Merlot, but you'll need to taste them all to make your own decision. Enjoy!

Overpriced. Lovely staff and pleasant ambience, fully outdoor. Wines on the tasting menu were quite average. They charge $45 for a 5-wine flight although they only had 4 kinds available so we did their flagship red Cowbell twice. You can do 6-wine tasting flights at pretty much any of the other wineries for around $20. Visit only if you would like to support a family owned small boutique producer, otherwise not a top pick.

Great service and amazing Guy Lemon wine. This place is great for all sorts of crowds including singles, couples, and groups. I'll definitely be back soon.

Such a great time here. Called ahead to find out more information but didn't get anyone on the phone so decided to just venture through anyway. Upon arriving into view of the vineyard I received a call back which set the mood for the entire experience. This small winery takes special care of each and every guest, making sure the story of each wine is shared as well explaining most anything to a novice wine drinker such as myself. With multiple terrace areas and seating, it felt quite intimate with passionate workers to share the fruits of the father/son's labor.

Stopped by on Labor Day afternoon and had a great experience. The wine tasting is $25 per person for any six wines, which offered a nice variety to choose from. Seating is outdoors, surrounded by vineyard views and cooled by gentle breezes and mist fans—perfect for a relaxed afternoon. There was even a live country band playing, which added to the fun and lively atmosphere.

We have been members for about 9 years and 2025 is the first year that we have started to actively attend dinners and events. Everything is always great. From the wines and food to the staff and events, everything is always the best. This latest Sunset Sips is no different. Just an awesome experience as always. A special shout outs to Erica, Chris, Cameron, Conner, Nick, Josh, Star, and Nisreen for always being so welcoming. And thank you Cane and Rebecca for always making this feel like a home away from home. Attached are some of the events we have attended this year so far.

What can I say? Beginning with Star, our waitress who also doubles as a bartender, our experience was amazing. Sunday funday was an unexpected surprise given that we only wanted to stop by for an early dinner and to pick up our wine bottles. The ambiance and the merriment was enough to give us all a reset that we much needed from our daily drudgery. Faith in humanity restored!

Went on a Sunday, and it was just way too loud especially with the DJ set up so close to the dining tables. There was nonstop yelling, games, and raffles, making it hard to have a normal conversation or enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. Not sure if it’s always like this, but it definitely wasn’t a calm dining experience.

We’ve been going Miramonte for years and we have continued to be a part of their wine club because of the great service. The atmosphere, live music on the weekends, the location, and the food is bar none.

As always Miramonte Winery, bistro selection of food is very good. Their bbq chicken flatbread, harvest salad, hot wings, their special of the day- turkey sandwich with fries, were all delicious. Our servicer, Josh, was outstanding and very attentive, as well as Connor, with the wine tastings. We brings family and friends here and have always received amazingly delish entrees and appetizers and outstanding service. The ambiance and views during lunch time are awesome. Peaceful and serene. Keep up the good work and we thank you Miramonte Winery!

So much fun last night on Member Social. I brought my sister and we both won the raffle’s prize. Food and wine was amazing along with all your team members that gave us a good service. Thank you

Atmosphere, staff, and overall experience A+. The wine wasn't anything I would say was exceptional, but good for the price. The food was also good but not excellent. Overall, it was a good experience with no real complaints.

Small Crowd, Great Food and Bottle service Thats a winning combination. The Greatest music venue in Southern California.

I think it's crazy that they have a whole parking lot that ends up mostly empty at the end of the night while there are people with walkers and canes forced to park at the bottom of the hill. I was told it's for the season ticket pass holders but why can't they RSVP or something so other people who cant walk the hill dont have to struggle. We pay hundreds of dollars to attend the concert on top of food. I walked out during intermission to see over 10 parking spots not being used. The dinner package is not worth it because apparently its not the same as VIP who is the season holders. You still have to park at the shittiest dirt parking and get treated poorly. I recommend go to any other winery with parking.

Great venue for music and summer events. Menu is limited during concerts. Wine by the glass or ny the bottle is available along with bottle water and soft drinks. Plan early for parking and general admission seating and bring a jacket as it cools off in the evening once the sun goes down. Enjoy.

This is such a conflicting review. I just want to start by saying that the concert and band covering Santana was exceptional and really set the mood for the evening. The wines and the food were also good. Albeit the prices are exorbitant. 34$ for a cheeseburger? That's just too much. The negative about this experience was the service. It seems to be a recurring theme in a lot of the other reviews I've read as well. First. We were seated, and nobody even acknowledged or came to take our orders until 30 mins sitting down. It took an hour for the food to arrive. Our server only came to check on us one time during our 3 hours at the venue. Our entire party wanted to order additional items, and we had to flag whoever we could find, which in turn they had to find the server for our table. All in all, it is a terrible service experience with outrageous prices from an otherwise wonderful concert Performance. I can't return here in good consciousness with such poor service. Maybe the experience is better when there isn't a concert going on

Came here on a Thursday afternoon, beautiful scenery, and outdoor dining. Our waiter was attentive, and always pouring us our next glass of whine/water as soon as he saw our cups near empty. Food was delicious. Overall a great winery, and excellent service.

I wish the weather was better so we could have enjoyed our tasting outside. Because of the rain - we had to do our tasting seated in the cafe. Ambiance was just ok…but the chocolate wine tasting was absolutely delicious. The goat cheese was very good as well.

We rented two surreys to bike along the one-mile strand, $70 for one hour total. The weather was sunny and breezy. The walk along the pier was gorgeous, and we got to watch the surfers catch some waves. Parking was a challenge in the area.

Oceanside Pier is a must-visit in Southern California. With panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, sandy beaches, surfers riding waves, and the Oceanside coastline stretching for miles, it’s perfect for photography, walking, or just relaxing. These shots were taken from the pier on a clear summer day, showing the vibrant blue water, wide sandy shore, and the bustling beach scene. If you’re visiting Oceanside, CA, the pier is ideal for sunset views, ocean breezes, and classic California coastal scenery.

Fun Stop when in Oceanside. I grew up coming to the pier in the 1970's. The buildings and businesses along the shoreline have changed but the Pier is still there. Multiple interations of the pier have stood for decades. The pier has been beaten by storms and most recently fire. The end of the pier is still closed but most of the pier is open to the public. Fishing is popular for many and the pier provides good spots. Rental equipment is available if you want to wet a line and don't have gear. Maybe, some smoked fish will soothe the call. Paid parking is available just south of the pier. Public restrooms are also available. The "Top Gun House" is across the street from the pier area. Take a walk down the pier and breathe in some sea air. You might spot some sea lions or even a dolphin.

The Oceanside Fishing Pier is a fantastic spot for a relaxing walk by the ocean. Whether you’re visiting during the day or at night, it offers breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere. At night, the pier is beautifully lit, creating a calm and romantic vibe that makes it perfect for an evening stroll. It’s one of those places where you can truly enjoy the sound of the waves and the fresh sea breeze. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Oceanside!

I lived in Oceanside in the early 60's, when I was just a young child & my boyfriend & I come back every now & then to fish on the Oceanside pier & he loves fishing on the jetty, too! Before we even met, he told me he spent about a decade of his childhood & teens back in the 70s, staying in a condo in Oceanside, right on the beach, every summer! He just loved it, as it was nice to get out of San Bernardino County, where he grew up, to be by the ocean!

Stopped by the beach and pier for a date night. Beach was okay, but the pier was nice. It was pretty crowded near the pier when we went. Parking is a pain, Parking lots are a good walk from the beach/pier and cost by the hour. Otherwise, we still had a good time walking the pier and watching the surfers and people fishing.

It’s a pier but a little rough. A lot is going on but it’s not super dangerous. Keep your eyes open. It’s not pristine but it has a cool SoCal vibe. Visit at your own risk because on a good day there are thousands of people on the pier and around there. Closer to the beach is more safe but as you leave and you got few blocks away it all feels sketchier but it’s not exactly dangerous.

Small office with limited seating. Reopened 10 March. Great place to be out of weather. If you need to buy tickets or change them this place is a lot easier to use than online or phone.

Nice place to stop bye.

They have good stores. The general layout is not much that goes easily around, but still manageable. Because of location, near the shore, the weather is nice!

Awesome upscale shopping center in beautiful Carlsbad california. Perfect weather even on hot days, due to cool pacific ocean breezes. The mall is open air, ADA friendly and pet friendly. Every major brand is represented here. While it is not cheap, you can find everything under the sun. EXquisite dining options abound from ice cream vending and kettle corn to fast casual up to fine dining. Truly a paradise to behold. Highly recommended. Parking is tight however, so best to go off peak.

Pretty nice mall with good selection of outlet stores. As a surfer I particularly like to shop at O’Neil, Hurley and would always love to check out the cosmetic company store too. They have la mer in a 40% to 50% off regular priced items.

It is a nice place, to buy clothes of good brands as well as premium brands. Nike shoes, Gap, Levi, and premium things like Swarovski diamonds, etc. Adidas, Puma, Banana republic, and many other brands.

If you haven't been here for a while, you should go take a look around and explore all the different shops, either inside or outside. If you need shoes from your favorite brand, the outlets are definitely a great place to go look for the ones you love. Lots of quick spots to eat and casual shopping for what you love in your wardrobe!

Carlsbad outlet mall is where you get everything you need under one roof! Multiple brands to shop at right for shoes sandals to apparel’s bridal party and casual wear to makeup to watches everything you can name. I loved their food stalls kiosks in between and my favorite was their Hagen Daz ice cream! Loved shopping here!

If you want premium shopping at fantastic prices, don't hesitate to stop by the Carlsbad outlet. I ended up scoring several items at kate spade, and at chico, the parking lot is well patrolled.The mall is very clean and terrific location.And they are all ready for the holidays!

What a beautiful place! We went on a Friday and it wasn’t very crowded. It was just gorgeous! The flowers are so pretty and fresh! We went into the butterfly room and it was pretty magical until my one year old grandson had a butterfly land on his lip and he tried to eat it! Luckily no butterflies were injured! The sweet pea maze was fun, we actually got a little lost. Everyone seemed happy who was there and the people working there were very nice! We went earlier in the day and took about 90 minutes, by the time we left the sun came out and I was overdressed. We can’t wait to go again next year.

I’m giving The Flower Fields Garden four stars. The garden was beautiful with a stunning variety of flowers, and the presentation was lovely. 😊 The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which added to the pleasant experience. 🍦The on-site ice cream and cotton candy shops were a delightful touch, and the food options were nice as well. 😕However, the washrooms could have been cleaner, and the butterfly section was a bit overcrowded; I expected to see more butterflies. Overall, it was a good experience, and we enjoyed our visit.

The Carlsbad Flower Fields are a great place to visit, especially during peak bloom. Start early to beat the crowds and bring water, sun hats, or even an umbrella. There is a lot of walking and some dust from the parking lot, so be ready for that. The flowers are beautiful, but be mindful not to step into the fields so they stay protected. There is sometimes live music which adds a nice touch. The food options are not the best, mostly hot dogs and basic snacks, but they are edible if you are hungry. Lines can get long so patience is key. For kids, there is a fun scavenger hunt that takes them around the whole field. Afterward, you can stop by the Carlsbad Outlets nearby to do some shopping or grab ice cream. Overall, it is a great seasonal outing if you plan ahead.

My sister and I had a nice visit to see the May blooms at the Flower Fields in Carlsbad. We got there early, around opening time, on a Sunday. Parking was easy, there were a lot of spots available at that time. The flowers were beautiful and they even had a couple of small aviaries. We enjoyed seeing all the flowers in bloom, the swallows flying above the sweet pea maze, and the beautiful sculptures that were part of the Glass in Flight exhibit.

🌸✨ The Flower Fields in Carlsbad are absolutely magical! 💐🌼 It was so beautiful to explore and see all the flowers blooming in vibrant colors 🌷🌻. Loved picking fresh blueberries 🫐 and capturing stunning photos 📸. Perfect spot for a fun day out, relaxing strolls, and making memories 🌞💛. Highly recommend if you’re in SoCal! 🌺🌿

Awesome place and definitely worth a visit. My 3 year old daughter loved it!! Much more than just flowers. I drove by this place many times and my daughter always pointed to it, but I thought it was just walking around looking at flowers. I finally looked up the place online and seen it was much more than walking around looking at flowers. We slowly walked around, checked out most of the free activities, and enjoyed our day out. FYI, your shoes will get dirty, I wouldn’t wear some new kicks. You have a variety of food and drinks options, including some much needed coffee.

I’ve seen it from the freeway in the past, but I have never been here the experience in the history behind 125 year-old working farm with millions of beautiful flowers over 50 acres what an amazing experience and venue if I lived in California I would definitely consider a wedding or a shower or an anniversary party here. The staff was very friendly and informative. Absolutely beautiful phenomenal afternoon.
