We want your visit to San Luis Obispo to be worthwhile, so we took the time to visit a few places. Here are some places we loved during our visit, and we hope you'll enjoy them too.
Solvang is a cute small Dutch town mid-way stop, between Los Angeles and Solvang, serving great food, beer, and pastries. It's a nice stop to refuel your tummy and play tourist for a few hours.
A very cute barn, about five minutes from the venue, where you and your children can feed barn animals, eat ice cream and pie.
Montaña de Oro Bluff Trail is a beautiful, easy 4 mile hike on the coast. Hints of blue, purple, and yellow wildflowers surrounded us. Take the time over the weekend to enjoy a coastal view, feel the flowers, and feel the sea water breeze on your face.
This about 20 minutes drive from the venue. This park is mostly flat for easy walking.

A short hike close to Avila Beach where you can enjoy the cliffs and a small cave.
A steep but fun hike along the cliff of Avila Beach. There are a few swings you can swing on.

Downtown San Luis Obispo, with many cute shops, restaurants, coffee shops, bars.
