Little Grand Canyon
Hiking area
👍👍 Beautiful trail under 4 miles but I would rate this more towards the difficult side than moderate. There are a couple of beautiful overlooks and creek crossings but at around midpoint, the path got too wet and there was an area where we needed to jump down a huge boulder to be able to continue down...

Pomona Natural Bridge
Bridge
👍👍 Such a cool naturally occurring experience. Worth the winding drive. Nobody else was around so it was truly a great experience. It's amazing to see what nature can provide to people to enjoy. The road out there was narrow, drive slowly in case you meet another car. While out there, stop a great w...

Inspiration Point Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 This is a quick hike - we're both out of shape and were able to get in and back, plus stop for pictures, in about 20 minutes before the thunderstorm broke loose. The trail is pretty easy, but there are some loose rocks and mud at the end going down to the point which make it a little tricky. The vie...

Feather Hills Vineyard and Winery
Winery
😐 We arrived on April 15, 2023 on a rainy day. Live music was entertaining, and the wine was very good. The area was exceptionally clean. We bought 3 bottles of the Saluki Riesling after our tasting, which we really enjoyed. The only negative is they overcharged us $15 for 3 $19 bottles. Watch y...

Oak Grove Cabins
Cabin rental agency
👍👍 I had a wonderful stay. I came with my family, including my dogs. It is so hard to find a good pet friendly place. The owners were friendly and the place was clean. I have absolutely no complaints. The fireplace was wonderful after a cold day Saturday. I will easily book again.
