Enormous amusement park filled with high-speed roller coasters & rides, plus wildlife attractions.
It’s good, sort of feels smallish compared to some other parks I’ve been to. For example, I like the Arlington TX Six Flags Over Texas slightly more.
Medusa is a great warm up ride, having a good blend of speed, smoothness, and g-forces. The Superman and Batman rides are a touch more intense, and both excel in different ways. Superman has the speed and a “flight” feel. Batman is crazy in all the different forces, and seems to fit Batman’s style.
I was excited about trying Flash but… closed. Same for Wonder Woman, also down for maintenance once we got in line.
Joker is the most bonkers, and turns it all up to 11. When we went, this one had the longest line by far. If you’re in the area and have the time… wow. Check it out
Bathrooms were clean. The food at Johnny Rockets was actually good, the Burger and chicken strips didn’t task like park food :-)

We went on a weekend :/ First mistake. But, we live close and ended up splurging for the season pass as after 2 uses it pays for itself. Next outing with be during the weekday. Lines were pretty terrible. When you start looking around the park more closely everything is covered in weeds and cobwebs. The overall appearance of the park is run down and dusty. Disney would never let their parks get so run down. Flow of parking was set up really well; although it was a haul to get to the park (you’ll definitely get your steps in just getting from the parking lot to the park!) They do offer bus service we just didn’t want to wait for it. You can bring in food and beverages we saw many strollers bringing in their own items. They also have refillable water stations so we will absolutely bring our water bottles next time. (We spent $30 in just water alone). Overall, it was a fun experience but we have some tips and tricks to have a more enjoyable experience next go.

We love going here for family time...especially during the holidays! Fun watching the kids stretch their boundaries and try new rides!
Do wish there was a schedule of which rides were open when with all the staffing requirements/schedules, and wish park was cleaner (rides and show seats especially), but overall ok.

I went today! I have been before, but I have never been on any of these roller coasters until today! This park is doing so much better! I only got to spend 3 hours in the park due to the hours being cut short. But I still got 2 Joker rides, a Superman ride, and a Sidewinder Safari ride! The cool part about being there in the rain, there was hardly any lines! I think the longest I waited for a ride was like 15 to 20 minutes for Joker! Joker! The one that always has long lines! The park was so dead! And they did give us free tickets since they cut our day short. So I will definitely be back!

This place have lots of potential. If they make everything new and put more rides and more of there rides to be active. I promise more people will come. This park is kinda sad. Most rides are not working and everything looks really old. Please bring the park back to live so more people can enjoy it. I hate to see parks likes this look like this. Although they do have some cool animals.

Really fun place. It was pretty hot but later in the day turned out fine. Lines really long but maybe it was due to 4th July weekend. There was some really wild rides. I think the Joker was the ride to go on everyone loved it even our youngest of 9. Firework show was fantastic.
John Ferreira — Google review
For a late autumn day, lanes were really long. In a whole day (10am-6pm) we rode 5 rollercoasters, otherwise, we were srtanding in the lanes. Some areas of the park were closed. The rides were fun, but waiting for 2 hours and then seeing rides going around half empty was really annoying. Introduce the single passenger fast line, and make the experience better for everyone.

We had a fun first experience here during Oktoberfest and the kick off of Fright Fest.
It took some time orient ourselves but we got lots of walking in and toured the entire park. No paper maps available just digital.
Being the first night Fright fest haunted houses were a bit delayed and staff was confused about the one you had to pay extra for (which was a big disappointment after spending so much already) and we didn't get to see that one. The houses themselves were done well with some scare actors inside. Some lines moved quickly and some were very slow. The halloween park decorations were pretty good overall.
Oktoberfest food kiosks were incredibly slow. One person taking orders, money AND getting the food while others were around but not helpful. And the next day we bought the sampler pass but when we came back in the evening everything was closed so we didn't get to use it. :(
Overall the butterfly house and big coaster were our favorite, it was nice they were close together. We'd go back, you can do most all of it in a day.

The kids and I had lots of fun when we went during black history month last year in February 2022! The lines weren't too bad, and the price of the food was just a tad bit pricey but not too heavy on my pockets, lol! We got season tickets and can't wait to attend again for a family trip!

We just went to the park for the first time this year over spring break.
We have been coming here for years. We get a season pass which makes sense for our family since we live close to the park.
We also do the season dining pass, which if you go a lot this is a good deal rather than buying a meal each time at $20 each. This pass has changed since we started coming to the park. It used to include a snack and the annual refillable drink bottle. Now it is only 2 meals. And the park has closed a few of the food venues in the last couple of years so mostly burgers and chicken wings is what is offered around the park, with the exception of the food court.
The park no longer takes cash so you need a card, or have to purchase a park card at guest services.
Quite a few of the rides were closed as well, but I assume this is due to school still being in session so not as many employees.
Naomi Alfaro — Google review
There wasn’t any long lines that really needed the flash pass besides Superman which was my favorite ride there. It is cheaper to buy online that way you know what day is available including on blackout dates. We were able to feed sea lions with a purchase of food and see the other animals available

Absolutely wonderful! The park has so many accommodations for people with special needs. My daughter had fractured her hip and can’t stand or walk for long periods, and my son has severe Tourette’s, making going out sometimes very difficult.
The line for an ADA pass was long, but a worker heard my son getting louder and louder and helped us immediately. The workers at every ride were polite, friendly and were mostly all smiles! And very patient!
I actually lost my ADA pass, but the worker could see my daughter was in a wheel chair and let them right on the ride while I got another pass.
With the ADA pass they had little wait times which made it possible for us to go! If it wasn’t for this pass we wouldn’t be able to go. Most workers looked at the pass and let us right on! They didn’t make us feel uncomfortable for using the pass!
Only downside… food is pretty horrible and overpriced and very long wait times…. But again the staff was very friendly.
Only problem we had… I could see my daughter and she needed help, but where she was, was turned into an exit, from the last five minutes I was with her… He staff would not let me go up to help her… they made me walk a mile around to where she was… and actually laughed that I had to do that… so although most workers were amazing, these 2 women had no empathy or compassion. So six flags still has work to do with a few employees! Thank you for a great time six flags!
Also after the dolphin show they let my son hang out five minutes and interact with the dolphins! My son rarely uses his words and all he could talk about when he got home, was how he got to train the dolphins… it really made his night and it will be an experience he will always remember! They were awesome with him.
Also FYI, I couldn't find any family restrooms...My son is a wonder and needs a companion with him at all times, so he had to use the female restrooms...

We use to love 6 Flags before Covid. Now everything is more expensive but nothing has changed. It takes 30 minutes just to get from the freeway to park. Another 30 minutes to a hour to get into the park. And then half the rides are closed, the lines are long, most of the restaurants were closed even on a Friday during spring break so the lines to get food were crazy at places that were open. The app to buy food ahead still had a 45 minute wait and a long line to pick up. On top of that it wasn’t working and wouldn’t let you check in even when you were there. Even the bottles they sell for drinks are smaller. We paid $38 for a refillable cup which is about 2/3 the size of the old bottles. My mom and I walked around and looked at what’s left of Marine World Africa USA and did enjoy our day which is why I still rated a 3. But the kids only rode 2 rides in 5 hours (lines too long and the last one which would have been the 3rd ride they got to the front and it broke down after a hour and a half in line.

Despite the outrageous prices of EVERYTHING nowadays we took our daughter here to spend a couple of days for her most recent birthday and there was something for the whole family. It was our toddler’s first time going and he LOVED IT. Our daughter had been before but was very hesitant about rides — but this time she got on all of the looney toon seaport rides AND took on most of the moderate thrill rides! As a parent it was very cool to watch her have so much fun and evolve. Season passes and dining passes made the experience more affordable and the new additions to the amusement park - more animals, excellent animal shows that were educational, and rides - made it a great place to have lots of fun. Plus the firework show was fantastic! We spent two full days there — one where the park was open later for the fire work show and one where it closed on time — from 11 am to closing and we STILL didn’t experience everything there was to see! We will definitely be going back and hope to try the new hurricane harbor also.

Went for our friends bachelor party. Rode the Batman and Medusa; great rides. $15 beers not exactly worth it. Free shows were definitely worth it. Got to see one of the workers scream at kids feeding the sea lions. *Don't dangle the fish, just drop them*
Ryan Alexander — Google review
The park isn't what it used to be, but they do have incredibly fast roller coasters and definitely worth the discounted ticket price of $40 during a weekday! I hope they bring back the Looney Tunes show for the kids and fix the broken rides. Some rides need more than 1 employee working it because the line moves really slow... like on the Gorilla Ride....
It's a great value for the family, for sure. Every kid would love coming here especially during summer break.

I bought the diamond passes for my kids and husband. I also bought a speedy parking pass. Which I learned comes with the diamond pass, so I wasted money. It wasn't clear online what came with the pass! I had a few different employees explain it to me, and they were incredibly nice about it.
We arrived at the park 15 minutes before opening and we got through parking super fast and we left at 6 pm.
We fed the sea lions and pet stingrays and saw lots of different animals. The staff are very well educated on the animals and their names. We were talking with a sweet old lady(employee) at the puma and Wolf's, and she was telling us all these amazing facts and had my kids engaged and excited.
We waited between 5 minutes to an hour for rides. We got to ride most of the rides.
We had so much fun exploring the park, and there are lots of places to sit down and rest. If you're not a fan of rides, there is still lots to do between shows and animals to see!
I'm very excited to spend the summer with my kids here!

It's been about 10 years since I have been to this theme park, and today I came with my daughter for her first time, she had a blast! She is just above 48inches tall so she was able to ride a handful of rides except for Medusa, superman, wonderwoman, and 2 more she will need to have a summer growth spurt for 😊 The theme park was clean and customer service was wonderful! Merchandise and extracurricular gaming and activities are priced fair! Shows and kids entertainment was fun and sighted some characters here and there! I suggest going in the morning to see animal engagement, but overall a family fun experience guaranteed.

This was from October 2023 visit.
You cannot walk in to purchase tickets. You have to purchase online. The weird thing is, I tried several times to get tickets online but the thing is, the website is not accepting my card. They should do something about this and either accept payments upfront (what the hell are the terminals there for?). But they did make consideration for us when I explained to them that the site does not accept my card. So ⭐️ for that.
Some employees were lazy… some were constantly checking the time and saying outloud that she’ll be out in 2 hours. I mean, come on, it was not a busy day.

I want to be clear that the location and the attractions are all very good. This Six Flags has some great rides and the animals are great. However, it is very irritating that because of mechanical or other issues that we were only able to go on three or four rides total during the day. Multiple times we stood in line for more than an hour just to have the ride shutdown for some reason unknown to everyone. To compund matters, some rides did not ever open so the lines for the rides that were running were very long. We will not return to this Six Flags or any others. We'll stick to Universal Studios or Disneyland/Disneyworld. This place is definitely not worth the money if you are not able to go on more than a few rides on any given day.

My family and I live in Idaho and visited Sacramento during Covid where lots of places were shutdown. The park wasn't in full operation.
We Bought the tickets online. Two adults tickets and two for our kids.
We tried to get there per the schedule on our tickets.
For unknown reasons they weren't going by that schedule time on the tickets.
We thought were trying to control crowd by giving out those schedules.
I'm not sure why the tickets have those time slots if they're needed.
We arrived late afternoon and they were done with almost all of the shows for the day.
We were lucky to enjoy the dolphin show. We loved to watching the dolphins display so we decided to put it on our to do list anytime we visit Sacramento again.
We were there again in 2022 .
This time too we missed our favorite dolphin show. The did the dolphin show earlier that day were visited. We were sad that on two different occasions we never got to enjoy to the fullest.
I recommend if you want to visit the place and get full benefits then plan to go early regardless of the time you see on your tickets so you don't miss some of the shows.
Plant to spend the whole day there should in case you have to stay later to enjoy all the shows.
I will suggest the management put the schedule of their shows for each day online so people can plan their trip accordingly.
Aside the rough schedule,the kids enjoyed the seeing the marine kingdom

Easy to get to park, general and preferred parking is pretty close to each other. $50 for parking, food prices are ridiculous $20 corndog and fries. not sure if you could bring food but definitely find out. Dippin dots were $10 each. I guess thats normal sur charges for amusement park.
Rides are great. Didnt wait too long for each ride but arrived when it opened.

Great roller coaster park. Friendly staff, great rides.. but as expected.. Food cost isn't cheap. If you are only going one time, pack a lunch and grab a locker just outside the gate (or keep it in your car)
Or if you have a season pass, and are going to go 4-5 times.. get the food pass and eat up!

I've never experienced such community love. Every Wednesday they get together for a community wide "festival" That is held at the plaza. Food trucks, live music, nearby stores attract over 800 people with their lawn chairs. Chairs the main attraction is each other. Folks just sit down and start talking. Enjoying the food and the music. This is what downtown's across America want to look like. Diverse, united, fun.

Visited this Plaza recently. Although I'm not sure I would call it a plaza because it's really a small kind of downtown historic area. There were so many options for food, ice cream and quaint little stores. There's a beautiful Park located directly in the center where I saw people laying in the grass and reading, children playing in the park, people walking their pets. It was very well-maintained and a beautiful place to visit. The weather was just amazing and it just allowed for such a great little visit. There's a tiny little water area that had Turtles and birds. Everything about the visit was just great. Would absolutely recommend for a visit!

If you like historical sites and/or taking pictures you should consider dropping by the plaza. The court house, Presidio, Mission, Blue Inn and Bear Rebellion Statue are all right there. The General Vallejo Home and Train Depot Museum are within easy walking distance of the square. Presidio has nice displays. Mission has some displays, a chapel and mission paintings from the 1800s. The Square has lots of shops and eateries. Went on a Friday in April and place was busy. Imagine weekends would be pretty packed.

Sonoma is a beautiful town in the Valley of the Moon, just over the hills from Napa Valley. It is one of California's best wine regions. The center of the town is old and beautiful, with a green central park surrounded by shops, restaurants, wine tasting rooms, a theater, and more. There are some historical places of interest right in the center of town: the Sonoma Mission, and Presidio of Sonoma where the Mexican army gave up without a fight in the Bear Revolt to claim California for the US. There are many great wineries in Sonoma Valley, with an emphasis on zinfandel. A visit to Jack London State Park is recommended.

Summer // Tue Night Farmers Market with live music. Charming.
Throughout plaza park goers (couples, families, small groups) gather- laying out blankets, chairs, some with their own mini picnic tables, others go all out decorating with e-lamps, flowers. Pack picnic food/wine or enjoy pop-up food/beverage vendors or grab “to-go”from local restaurants on square. Also lining plaza are pop-up stands: Farmers market produce, jewelry, soap, local crafts, etc. Relaxing Tuesday summer night in wine country.

This plaza is nice. Inside the "square" / plaza there is a park with pond and there are ducks during our visit...don't know if they are there all the time. There are two playgrounds. The playground we were at has sandy ground..be prepared the tiny feet to track those sand inside shoes/socks 🫣 lots of shops and boutique. Nice and clean bathroom behind the historic building. Please support the boutique to keep them afloat.

A short drive from Santa Rosa through the beautiful wine country, my wife and I made it to our destination at a store in the Sonoma Plaza. It was a great weekend excursion that even a rainy day could not dampen. The square has many shops and restaurants to explore. There were many people enjoying the day and parking was not too bad. Alot of people were walking their dogs there and
Pets and people were all having a spectacular experience.

Always a nice place. Haven't been in 3.5 years, but felt right at home when we got here. Walked the square to see what was new, had a quick bite and then headed out for done wine.
It's like being in retail heaven. There are so many options to choose from. Name brand stores of every kind from clothing to handbags to perfumes to shoes and home furnishings and so much more. There is literally something here for every member of your family from the tallest to the smallest. You get high quality items at a fraction of the normal cost. There are public restrooms and places to grab a refreshing beverage to quench your thirst or satisfy your sweet tooth. There is ample parking but be sure to wear comfortable shoes if you want to experience everything this outlet has to offer. To ensure a safe, healthy and enjoyable shopping experience face mask are required at every store for employees as well as customers so come prepared.

I enjoy shopping at a few of the stores here. They keep up the property pretty well with bathrooms available. I've to unfortunately give a lower rating due to removing the benches from the property. Not everyone can stand for long periods of time while the rest of the family continues shopping. Many of the patrons here are of senior age as well. Recently they also added a huge dumpster to the main parking area next to charging station that makes it difficult to park and navigate. With online shipping it's becoming harder to justify coming.

Their sales are great there if you have time and want to shop this is the best place for deals this is the place to go man women and children baby clothing in all sizes the best thing is you are outside so you can get fresh air while shopping several bathrooms they are always kept clean and parking if you have a large vehicle you can always park in the back of the store area. The only Improvement that I can think of is if they had more benches for elderly to sit down and rest that can't walk long distance or stand very hard to sit on curb

This place has become a tradition for my wife and I. We will come once or twice a year and the deals are always great. we were able to get most of our holiday shopping done and although there were a lot of people there, we found parking and found exactly what we were looking for. I always enjoy a day here and its worth the drive!

Didn't have a chance to go to all the stores, but there were a lot of places to go to, plenty of parking, and much fun to be had. Not a bad place to go at all.

I love this place as it has everything you want! I wish they did have more deals during holidays and closeouts. It's still a great place to pick up quality clothing at a fraction of what it would cost in a retail store! Park over at Sam's Club and walk over as there is more shade in the summertime, so your car won't be scorching hot when you return!

Last time I visited this outlet it was more than 10 years ago. Back then this outlet you can find quality products with discounted price!
It was quite a disappointment when we drove by and stopped to checkout again! Most of the name brand stores are still there but can’t find any decent stuff anymore, most products are low quality or not appealing, even with 15%, 30%, even 50% off are still not attractive at all!
It is very sad to see this mall become, the traffic reduced so much, even the Starbucks been shutting down!
Parking are very easy, vending machines also available in many corner near the restroom’. Not interested to stop by again when we drove by next time!

Under armor from vacaville premium outlet will make your day miserable. I grabbed a size 4 curry basketball shoe places under a $29 sign and checked out. They were charging me $75 instead. When I asked why, they said Under Armor made size 4 men shoe and it was misplaced on youth shoe shelf. It is a men shoe so it is more expensive despite it is literally look like a size 4 kid shoe. I said okay and asked if they have boy Curry basketball shoe, they pointed me the pink curry and told me it is unisex color. I said okay and grabbed a pair to check out, they charged me $49 again, when I asked why it is not $29 as their sign shows, they said sign is for other shoes, this pair does not have a sign and it is $49. I said ok and grabbed some youth sneakers from back wall where it says youth clearance at $19, they charges me $39 at check out and said those are men shoe which are misplaced by clients. I could not believe it and showed them there are three same shoes all put in the youth wall, how come all of them were misplaced by clients? they said no, we cannot price men’s shoes as youth prices.at the end, I asked if I can turned my gift card into cash and leave the store because I don’t want to anything from this store anymore, they said no.
Guys, It is a great way to waste time and energy shopping at under armor store in Vacaville premium outlet. The retail team was poorly trained and has million ways to try to charge you more at counter. I recommend their products but would not recommend their service.

First time here but just for a transit .. get down a car and get into another .. but in that wait of 30 mins with my family. I brought a coach and a Michael kors ... that’s the shortest time of 35 mins spent - 250$.. it’s a guarantee and I like it

Love this place !! Only issue I have is that the close at different times. Or when you lookup the store hours online and it will say a store is open til a certain time but when you arrive the stores are closed or closing. So basically several stores need to update their store hours online.
I was under the impression that all of the stores closed at the same time. But this is not the case.

If you do only one winery tour while visiting Napa, this should be high on your list! Because all phases of the wine making occur in this cave, you learn about each of the processes while touring a really cool facility! And the wines were magnificent! A definite must do!

We visited Napa Valley for the first time and want to visit several wineries. We visited Jarvis the first day and 3 others the next day. We made reservations weeks in advance which is recommended. They were all different and all had their pros and cons. Jarvis was very unique with the winery underground. It was very classy and upscale. The wines were very good but also out of our price range.
Our tour guide (forgot her name) was excellent! Very informative and very friendly.
This was our favorite wine tour and the most unique. Highly recommend!

Jarvis is one of the best wineries / tours we have ever been on. We've been members here off/on - no doubt about it - it IS exclusive and expensive. But it is oh, so worth it. This is an experience that is worth the tasting fee. The estate is magnificent, the doors into the caves simply breathtaking and the caves themselves are just..... there are no words. OK - maybe.... Magnificent. We have never been disappointed here. I don't know what was going on with some of these negative reviews, but for us - every time has been beyond amazing. The tour, the caves, the wines, the cheese. If you are looking for an experience that you can talk about for years to come - this is it. Ask for Rob - he's great!

Nestled in a ridge in beautiful Napa, this winery actually extends over 1300 acres in different locations near the cave. I promise you, you will never experience such unique time with the guided tour. $100 will get you the experience of the guided tour full of details about the history of the owners and how they acquired such property back in the 80's. Their unconventional methods of producing wine is what makes them so unique and interesting. The tour consists of taking you inside the man made cave where they explain their wine producing methods, a showcase of their gathering room for private parties and of course the wine testing which is very private, and informative. You are placed in a room with cheese and crackers and six empty glasses at which time, the guide will start with the first wine, explaining the characteristics of it as she is serving it. For each subsequent wine the guide will do the same, placing attention and care to each wine. At the end of the tour you can purchase a bottle. These are high end bottles of wine I highly recommended it follow me and my adventures ig @sin_aguayo_canelito

Our absolute favorite Estate Winery in the Napa region. If your in the area and are a true wino this place is a must.
They are reservation only and definitely on the pricey side, but its well worth it. Came here in March for a private tour and had a great time.
The Wine cellar itself is located in a man-made cave located in one of the hills on the estate.
The cellar is huge, cool, and something I've never seen before.
Now as for the wine, there all delicious. Your tasting is paired with a yummy French imported goat cheese, crackers, and assorted nuts.
The wine tour guide was fantastic and taught us not only about the property, its history, and wines; but also wine history and pairing it.
Overall a must if your in Napa, cheers!

As a frequent wine drinker I don’t get amazed as frequent these days. But the Chardonnay and Cab Franc is truly world class. That is the only Cali chard I think is worth $175 and I am not even a white wine lover.

Wow, the cave tour was really great and having the opportunity to see the production areas, the waterfall and the ballroom was really special. The tasting was great, I felt like it was slightly rushed towards the end, but I guess it has to end at some point. Overall great tour, great cave and great wine. We took a few bottles home to enjoy in the future.

Today my best friend was there because I did recommended he told me they delivery I just want to say thank you for everything and keep the good wine coming For those people that don't know their Tempranillo and Chardonnay aside from their signature Cabernet are so amazing

Sonoma Valley is beautiful! It has a very friendly and walkable downtown square with so many options for eating, sipping wine, and shopping.

Graton Resort & Casino is a vibrant hotel that boasts contemporary accommodations and a spa, as well as various dining options, two bars, and an outdoor pool. Guests can also take advantage of the full-service spa and casino facilities. The front desk staff is available 24/7 to assist with inquiries, dry cleaning/laundry services, concierge services, and luggage storage. Free parking for RVs, buses, and trucks is also available on site.
The service in this Hotel is excellent!!!! Neat and clean with their friendly and accommodating staff. The Marketplace which is the food court has variety of good restaurants to choose from and open till late night. I also like the fact that they are strict with the Covid protocols like masking and the screening upon entrance. I will definitely come back to try the Spa Salon next visit.

Great nearby location to take your chances with lady luck. Reasonable priced restaurant offerings at their food court.
Main complaint I have is their non-smoking section. Definitely wish it was a larger area. Or better yet, make the whole casino floor non-smoking. I don't mind the drinking and the partying, but the smoking gets quite obnoxious, especially in this day and age.

We went for the pool on this 88 degree day; had reserved a day bed. There was NO awning over the bed, only side curtains, and no way to secure the curtains from blowing in the Wind. Consequently we hadn't any shade! Service was poor. We had a small fruit plate (came with the bed rental), I had a couple beers, but the server never bussed the bed. We moved to a couple lounge chairs by an umbrella despite having payed for the daybed so we could have a little shade. Also, they played obnoxious party dance music non-stop, and after an hour they CRANKED IT UP WAY TOO LOUD!! Couldn't hear each other talking. The pool is nice but they drove us away with the music! Total waste of money.
An Update - The next day we contacted the resort, explained the disappointing situation, and asked for a refund. They explained their policy about there being DJ music at the pool on weekends, which we didn't know about, that they were sorry to hear of the poor wait service and would pursue retraining, and they issued a full refund for the daybed rental! SO, I'm adding a star for this customer service response. I'd recommend that if you experience a problem it is worth contacting them.

This review is for the casino and event space as I never stayed in the hotel. Every time I go the place is really clean and will maintain. The staff are also super friendly and nice. The only time we have issues is when we bring someone along who looks underage and they seem to question us every 2 seconds so that gets a little frustrating that they don't have a wristband or something for those kind of people. As I understand they're doing a job but eight people don't have to ask us the same question within the matter of 5 minutes. Most people are pretty courteous about the smoking and non-smoking sections so you can use whatever section you want and not have a problem. People also are generally considerate if you're waiting for a specific game or table. Also, the machines make everything super easy with the vouchers and cash. I've been to a few casinos recently where you have to sign up for a rewards card first and then transfer your calf to points and then transfer the points to the card and they don't make the process. Very easy but luckily here it is. Super simple and I would highly recommend. Parking is super convenient as they have their own parking structure as well as a parking lot

We haven't been to Graton in about 7 or 8 years. The property has grown and is just beautiful. The hotel is new since we were there last. We stayed one night and we wished we had stayed longer! Everything was top notch from the time we pulled up to the valet to the moment we were leaving. Everything was so clean, the staff was very attentive, helpful, and approachable. Our room was absolutely beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The food court had a nice variety of options which was helpful since we had 3 people from our group of 7 that were vegan. I also was personally happy that there was an in house Starbucks 🙂 We can't wait to stay again.

We did not stay here, only came for a show in the ballroom. I stayed one night several years ago and was very pleased with the room.
I already wrote a review on our experience seeing shows in the ballroom. Briefly, from what I saw it was all floor seating, in dining room style chairs and there are no cup holders. There are two large video screens which help - especially if someone tall sits in front of you. The restrooms are close by and very nice - they have a fancy automatic toilet seat cover. There were several 'bars' set up around the doors to the ballroom so you could get a beverage, including beer and cocktails.
We also did not gamble or eat. The one place we may have stopped in for a bite after the show was closed. I don't know if they have anything open later in the evening. There is plenty of parking, including a multi-level parking garage.

This Casino is beautiful! I’ve been here a couple of times. We went with the purpose of gambling hopefully be one of the $888 dollar winners for the Chinese New Year weekend event. But we didn’t. However, we sure had a blast. We might have not won the $888 but some of us won some $$$.
We did not stay at the Casino/Resort this time. Because it was a weekend and it was packed. If you don’t like crowds, I’d say show up in the weekdays or a weekend with no events going on (but that might be a small chance lol). So, although it was crowded, we were still able to find parking. I really hate a place with no ample parking so that was a major plus for me!
The casino had a food court which I loved so you don’t have to go anywhere else to get food, there was plenty to choose from. We’re coming back again!!! Hopefully win more :).

We stayed at the hotel this past weekend and had a 5-star experience. I really came with no expectations, and boy was I surprised. The hotel was impeccably clean and well managed. The doors were opened for each of us, with smiles all around. The pool area was spotless and we felt as if we were somewhere else, not south of San Francisco! The poolside wait staff was friendly and the food was fantastic.
The room was spotless and impeccable, and the beds were a little too soft but comfortable.
We felt safe in the casino and felt like there was enough security around. The energy was nice. My ONLY complaint was the cigarette smoke. I guess there is no getting around that not even in the "smoke free" section.
All in all it was a great getaway and now we are planning our trip back. Kudos to the management! A few hotels in Vegas could learn a thing or two from you!

Coming home from San Francisco, we decided to check out this casino! It is really beautiful and was so crowded with people having a good time! It's a little smoky, but it's really good size, and we had a really great time hanging out here for a couple of hours. The food court has a lot to offer, and everything looks so delicious! Walked past the steakhouse, and it's gorgeous in there!! I was unable to see inside the Italian restaurant, but I bet it's just as spectacular as everything else! I was totally impressed and look forward to our next visit! Oh, and I had a new experience when using the restroom, I thought it was so neat, no toilet seat covers, because it's all automated... I've never seen this, and so I took a small video. Super modern and cool!

The food we had at one of the restaurants was excellent. The casino itself is so full of video machines that I feel I could get a better experience online. I was shocked that people could still smoke indoors and it made for a poor experience. I am also 90%sure I saw a bartender spit into a drink he was making.

The location is super easy to get to and navigate within the casino. I've been there several times and have only ran into one rude employee, a bartender named Autumn (who skipped over me after me waiting almost ten minutes for a bartender to help two guys that walked up within seconds.) The dealers are fantastic and usually pretty fun if you get them talking. Security are nice, helpful, and always there if you need them! The rooms are clean and spacious. There really aren't enough good things I can say about this casino! Highly recommend!!

Awesome casino, has all my favorite games, roulette, blackjack, poker, etc. The spa is fantastic. I get my hair cut there 3 times a month for $20 and it gives you access to the spa all day with sauna, ice room, steam sauna, jacuzzi, showers, tranquility room, food, water, etc. At this point, I'm a regular here. I don't even mind losing money anymore because the amenities are so good. Not to say I haven't won big! ;)

I never made a rating the other day, as Google posted.
GOOGLE fills in the ratings on their own without my permission.
So if I have to rate this place. I see that they never let African American people win on the slots. I know people say it's just LUCK. But we all know they control who wins, and on what day's. I just enjoy the drinks and the different people I met from the East Bay and San Rosa area.
They also only give you free play amounts based on HOW MUCH you have invested in the CASINO. My overall thought is to each of its own thoughts about here and good luck all who read!

Didn't stay in a room, so i couldn't rate them, but I would like to do so soon. Enjoying the games too much!! Wish they had regular craps but it's on the ballot again for 2024 to bring back regular craps to California!!! Vote the right way!! Regular craps and roulette are still best.

Graton used to be fun and pay, what happened?
Also, they offer free electric charging, but. It enough spots and currently the new ones installed do not work.
The casino is making room for a new addition of hotel and casino. It feels like they are not paying anymore, but connecting to pay for the new buildings. I’d wait until those building s are finished. Otherwise, you’re throwing money away.
I no longer recommend this casino.

These people complaining about losing should stop going to a casino. We never plan to win. When gambling set an amount, you want to lose and have fun.
I loved the bathroom covers but didn't appreciate a man in the bathroom. The tacos were amazing. Only request would be more planet moo games.
We gamble 5 figures on cruises it was nice to only lose 1k.

I've never stayed in a room here and this was my first time coming to this property. I play poker and even though I lost a lot of money playing this was a very fun and enjoyable experience. The property is amazing the staff was exceptional and the food options were great. And I love how they have a 24-hour Starbucks. Although the workers didn't seem to move with urgency once the line got long but it is what it is it was probably 3:00 in the morning when I went. I definitely plan on going back and staying in a room to really get the full great and experience.

Our first visit to this casino left us thoroughly impressed. Nestled in the middle of nowhere, it's a gem waiting to be discovered. The casino exudes a newness that's refreshing, with everything functioning properly.
The staff deserves special mention for their exceptional friendliness and willingness to assist patrons, especially for those new to gambling. They were always ready to help, making our experience enjoyable and stress-free.
Additionally, the hotel attached to the casino is a delightful retreat, offering a plethora of amenities for guests to indulge in. And let's not forget about the restaurants – they exceeded our expectations with their diverse offerings and impeccable quality.
Overall, our experience at this casino was nothing short of fantastic. We look forward to visiting again soon.

It was a very nice casino but it took forever to find a drink cart person just to get a water! We even asked a manager and he said we were better off ordering a drink at the bar. I just wanted a water while I spent money on the slots. I did have ice cream at Scoops which was delicious but a ridiculous price. 5.45 for one scoop. I can get a whole gallon for that price. The people at the rewards card area were the best part of the whole visit. Very polite and helpful.

They had some shady looking people there. I guess because in SF, they pick up people from shady parts of the City ( i.e. Tenderloin)
I didn't stay in the hotel so I can't rate that part.
As expected the food was overpriced with not much quality food to choose from.
The location is good, it took about an hour to arrive there.

We attended a concert there last weekend. The casino is very nice and the parking is easy. They have a smoking and non smoking slot machine area, however, no one seems to pay any attention to it so the casino is foul with cigarette smoke smell. The concert venue was located in the Ballroom which is just a large open convention type room with a stage. The arrangement of the chairs is good, however all the chairs are a one level and the stage isn't very high so it is difficult to see anything especially with many standing at concerts. We didn't stay at the hotel due to high prices but glad we didn't since it was laden with cigarette smoke. We see around 50 concerts a year but won't be back here for another.

Wow! I am still on a high from yesterday's Tree Tops adventure (pun intended). At the beginning, I was nervous, but the beauty of the forest and the fun of zipping quickly put me at ease. I was very impressed with the processes that ensured our safety and the care by our guides, Aidan and Dan, to keep us safe; even though there was much laughter and talking, our guides were ALWAYS focused on the equipment. Our group developed a fast camaraderie, which was really nice.
Being up in those peaceful treetops was incomparable, and I plan to go again in future. I highly recommend, *as long as you are comfortable with heights*. This is not for the meek, but if you are feeling brave, it is so worth it.

I can not thank the folks at Sonoma Zipline adventures enough. The experience was great - but what was even more amazing was watching the guides work with my autistic son to make him comfortable.

With a couple of zipping options, we chose the Tree Tops Tour and had a blast! Our leads were detailed, helped every step of the way where necessary &/or needed, complete with purposefully corny jokes! While all zip line tours seem to end far too fast, I def recommend this specific tour if you want to experience the fullness of the Redwoods! There are some steps to climb in the beginning, which may be challenging to some, but other than that, easy-breezy! Plenty of parking, drinks avail before and after the tour. If you want to bring your camera, wear a fanny pack or have a spot where it's secure! If you drop it...well, it's just gone!
Have fun!!

The Charles M. Schulz Museum pays homage to Charlie Brown and his iconic characters, Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts gang, through its wide range of exhibits about the art of cartooning. The museum also has a gift shop and regular exhibitions that explore different aspects of Schulz's career.
There's fun for all here. I arrived around noon on a weekday and the museum was populated mainly by adults. There are changing exhibits as well as permanent ones (like the recreation of Schulz' office/studio). Right now one of the exhibits shows who the people were that inspired the various Peanuts characters. Very enjoyable. There's also a large room with kid sized tables and supplies for drawing. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

My family visited today and absolutely loved it! Our youngest is 15 and we enjoyed the whole thing. The displays were very fun and also very educational. Absolutely loved the way the comic strips were incorporated into everything, including the bathroom walls!! And there is nothing more fun then putting four adults in a room and seeing who is capable of folding a red dog house and drawing the classic Peanuts characters!! What a great place for people of all ages!

Great museum to explore especially if you travel with kids. We had to change our road trip plans because of the weather and luckily weren’t too far from Peanuts or if you prefer Snoopy’s birth place. You’ll probably spend between 1-2 hours here strolling around the exhibition, watching cartoons, gifts shopping and even ice skating ⛸️. Yes, you got it right, there is an ice rink across the street where Mr. Schulz the creator of Peanuts liked to play hockey. Parking is free, also there is a small food court at the rink in case if you get hungry.

This is a cool museum with great employees. If you are a student don't forget to bring your student ID. There was no wait and all the route was filled with interesting facts and beautiful comic strips. This is a great place for kids, there is one room where you can color and learn how to make some origami figures. There is also one room where you can see movies! I saw Charlie brown in love with the little red hair girl. It was beautiful and really funny. There is one gift shop and just across the street there is one ice skating rink and one coffee shop.

Interesting and informative visit to this museum of the Peanuts cartoonist which ran from 1950-2000. Great displays of his work, and a replica of his work space. Docents were friendly and knowledgeable.

No trip to Santa Rosa is a complete without a trip to the wonderful Charles Schulz Museum, which does a terrific job of showing that Schulz was not just one of the best cartoonist of his generation but also was an incredible observer of human behavior and a believer in our best nature. The comics on the wall are so relatable because they depict scenes and situations that we all have experienced at some point in our life (waiting for a school bus, a class trip, playing with a dog, etc.). You cannot help but leave the museum with a smile on your face and a deeper understanding of the beauty and wit of Schulz's work.

Such a well put together museum, it’s not very big, but just big enough to definitely spend at least 45 minutes or more in. Depending on how much you’re really taking in everything. Theres a few cute picture spots to try out. Plus tons of little comic strips. They also have a really cute art studio upstairs that you can spend so much time in. All supplies is included, you can sit down and color a picture there’s a cool light table to trace characters on. Plus an origami instruction activity. I definitely could have stayed a few hours. It was such a cute time, adults are $12 per person which is also also super reasonably priced. There’s also the ice-skating ring next-door and across from it is a bigger gift shop. The museum gift shop is a little small. So I definitely recommend checking out the big gift shop next to the skating ring.

Did a side trip to this place from Rohnert Park on a girls trip since a couple of them are big Peanuts fans. Very cute museum to see which includes a little video discussing Charles Schulz. There are lots of original comic strips he drew and a creative room upstairs where you can color, draw, or do origami. The kite-eating tree is on the patio and lots of figurines of Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy, and of course Snoopy.

We loved this museum. If you’re into Peanuts and the history of how it all began, you’ll love this place. So much great information here. The gift school could be bigger! We did enjoy the gift shop across the way though near the ice rink. This really isn’t a place for little kids.

After a day of drinking wine, we needed a break so headed here to the museum and boy were we excited! My husband and I felt like kids again looking at many of the comics and pictures. What's best, is the movie theater where you can watch some of the Charlie Brown toons! There are so many opportunities to take pictures and walk the grounds.

As you walk into the first floor, a huge work of art greets you. Even though it is a small museum, the place is great for people of all ages! It has a lot of art. One can find art all over the place from the first floor to the second floor, walls, patio, parking lot, and bathrooms. The staff was friendly. Also go with enough time to enjoy the place so you can see every detail.

This is a nice little museum celebrating Charles Schultz and his Peanuts Gang. It takes around an hour to walk through and enjoy all the comics and history. The gift store is small but you can head over to the gallery (3 minute walk away) for a bigger selection including reprints of the comics. It is worth the $12 entry fee.

This was a small museum with some interesting info but not as much as I would have liked. Appreciated the comic tiles in the bathroom and the large ceramic pieces outdoors. Was hoping to learn more about each Peanuts character. Also hoped for a bigger and better gift shop.
Parking is plentiful and adult tickets cost $12. Not a mask in sight but there was space to spread out as well as an outdoor area. Was in and out in 30 minutes.

Loved it! Stop here and pay homage to all the wonder of Charles Schulz and his Peanuts legacy. We learned so much about this remarkable man, artist, and community builder. The Warm Puppy Cafe, ice rink, and museum are a great way to spend 2-3 hours or a whole day depending on your interests. We had hard to impress teens with us who had real smiles and a spark of enthusiasm here. That is a true 5 star experience! So much to take in from the history of cartoons, to the life story of "Sparky", and the Peanuts as cultural icons and truth speakers. Lots of engaging tour guides and volunteers around eager to share antidotes. Seeing the actual studio of this artist was a real thrill. Lot of cool interactive surprises here like the kite-eating tree and great photo spots with Peanuts characters and cartoon moments. Really worth a stop for people of ages, even if you are not a Peanuts fan, you will be by the end of this visit.

A small but really fun and interesting museum detailing the history of peanuts and its creator Charles M. Schultz. The exhibits featured lots of his original drafts and panels and is a really fun insight into the origins and creation of the comics. The exhibits rotate every 6 months, so there is always something new to see. There are activities such as a movie room for watching peanuts movies and a room to learn how to draw peanuts characters. A lot of photo opportunities both inside and outside the museum.
There is an ice skating rink across the road and a gift shop that also has some really fun peanuts pieces from the past.
Staff are some of the best I've seen at any attraction and will go the extra mile to make sure all your questions are answered.
I was surprised at how much fun I had here and will be coming here again in the future!

The most absolutely adorable museum paying homage to Charles M Schultz. It's a small museum packed with a lot of information. It's reasonably priced. There are items in this gift shop that they don't carry in the other Peanuts Gift Shop located by the skating rink. They also have an auditorium that showcases some of the cartoons depending on what's playing that month. It's a great experience if you decide to come out this way and plenty of parking. It was also nice to be here on a weekend, but with not a lot of crowds.

A lovely diversion on a beautiful California day. We were pleasantly surprised at how much this reasonably small museum has to offer. We had a great time and would recommend anyone who has a passing interest in Schultz’s work to drop by for a visit.

Love this place! Such a hidden gem. so many people didn't know it was so close to Sonoma and Napa. A great place for kids or grown up kids who grew up with snoopy. Takes about 3 hrs to see the museum. next time will go skating there. there's a large gift shop on the campus that's in addition to the small one in the museum.
Mumm Winery is Napa Valley's most well-known and respected sparkling wine producer. They have both indoor and outdoor tasting rooms with stunning views of the valley. If you enjoy your bubbly, this is a must-see winery!
One of our best tasting experiences in Napa! A sparkling wine selection that can't be beat. The Oak terrace is beautiful and peaceful and just the perfect atmosphere! Our host Maddie was so knowledgeable and helpful and she answered so many questions and made our experience very memorable! Truly wish I could go back again and again!

Pricey? For someone out of town, sure. Delicious and amazing? Absolutely. I would definitely recommend this place. The staff was very accommodating and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was surprisingly relaxed while tasting some wonderful sparkling wines and some amazing cheese.
Allen Jackson — Google review
The wine is great of course but I was very disappointed by how unaccommodating they are. We had a group slightly larger than their 8 person maximum (we were 10) and they made us sit at separate tables despite being easily able to join tables together.. because of ‘policy’ (a policy which they weren’t able to explain). AND they denied entry to our friend because she had her 6 month old baby with her. They suggested maybe leaving the baby in the car if the parents wanted to join. She opted to drive all the way back to SF rather than risking her baby’s life for her friend’s birthday celebration and a glass of sparkling wine 🤷🏼♀️

Friendly staff, incredible wine, and the outdoor tasting patio with magnificent views make this a top winery to visit in Napa. Our hostess, JoJo, was great! She was friendly, knowledgeable and created an amazing tasting experience for my wife and I. As others have noted, the wine is exceptional and the prices reasonable. I highly recommend visiting this wonderful winery!

First time I was here was in 98/99 while in college. Great memory then. Not a mature palate. Fast forward to now. Times have definitely changed but Mumm was still able to make life better with bubbles. Have a couple or 5 tastings of delicious samplings. Take a a bottle or some for the memories. Knowledgeable staff, clean and cool tastings. They even have a photo gallery to walk through before your reservation. Come try it out!

Mumm Napa was by far my favorite wine stop! They sat our large party together & gave us personal attention. Great pours of wonderful sparkling wines. The covered seating takes advantage of the lovely setting while you sip your sparkling wines. Highly recommend 👍🏽

We came here for my birthday with a reservation.
It was raining really hard that day but even the outdoor space was covered with heaters. Luckily they were able to move us to an inside table.
There was a bit of a wait to get seated but we came with a small group of friends so we didn't mind just hanging out and chatting.
Kat(Kathleen?) was our server and she was great. She was friendly and knowledgeable.
We all tried different wines (some of us got the sets).
And we picked a bottle to take home.
Excellent service and beautiful location.
They gave us all chocolates and (another) complementary drink at the end for my birthday.

Gorgeous views, delicious tastings, and friendly staff, what else is there?! Andy was such a delight, despite being very busy, we were treated with bubbles, chocolate, knowledge, and bottles to take home. The reservation process was simple, the grounds are gorgeous, and as expected, the bubbles were delish. Highly recommend visiting, but keep an eye on your debit card, I had such a great time, I lost mine 😂😂😂 Now that, is a good sign 💜

We recently went to Napa to visit different wineries. We made reservations for the ones we thought we would like the most, at the end of the day we had some extra time so, we made reservations for Mumm. As opposed to the excellent time , attention and experience we had through the day this experience was horrible: they didn’t communicate properly, and kicked us out of winery rudely and without warning.
If we consider our next vacation based on this last experience we never get back to Napa.

Beautiful grounds and ample seating makes Mumm a great place to bring a Napa first-timer. Their selection is vastly bubbles, which I love, but despite doing a tasting only one stood out to me - the rose.

Great experience. Me and the fiance enjoyed a wide variety of sparklings. The temperature outside was 100 and we sat indoors in the tasting room. The tasting room is full on window view with a good look into the vinyards. On the trees you can see humming birds. Mia was our server and took great care of us! We strongly recommend visiting any time of the year 😀

Mumm Winery, who doesn't love delicious sweet bubbles (or dry if you prefer that) Service is always professional and friendly. The gift store could use more help, though. The restroom is clean. Plenty of parking.
The patio has a fun atmosphere, with enough seating with beautiful views of the vineyards and mountains. Make sure to visit Mumm whenever you're in Yountville. However, reservations are highly recommended for members and definitely for non-members!

If you only have time for one or two tastings + love sparkling wine, Mumm Napa is a MUST!
We had to book super short notice + snagged a 10am slot on the Oak Terrace. Drinking before noon is 💯% underrated. 😆 The bits and baubles from local cheeseries were such a pleasant accompaniment to the wines. Def didn't regret paying extra for the Terrace.
You will definitely enjoy your tasting at Mumm Napa. 👍

Wonderful champagne, but would have been nice to have a formal tasting. We would have made an appointment if the website had indicated it was necessary. Making the best of the situation we all got different champagnes and shared...it worked for us!

Great wines, tepid welcome, bad service. We stopped by for a tasting and they told us they couldn’t give us one because a sommelier was on lunch. Granted there are two other tables with people in the entire winery. We were given the option to by a glass, and we paid it up front like we were at a cafeteria. Then entire time we drank our wines, nobody came to check in on us, and no one gave us a menu of wines we could purchase. We left when we were done, and uninterested to purchase bottles. We’ll never go back but their wines are exceptional.

Came to grab a quick glass to toast our engagement. Called ahead to let them know our Uber was running late. They said they could stretch the tasting reservation 20 min but could maybe grab a glass beyond that. Arrived 5:29 (9 min past) and was greeted at the host stand by the manager that they’re closed (open until 6:00 pm). Apparently, they “sent their bartenders home” (before they were closed and with patrons still dining).
I explained that we called ahead and our Uber was a 25 min drive ($35). I assured her we would only stay for 15 min and would be happy to just buy a bottle and close out the bill and be gone before 6:00. The manager still refused and said they sent an email to let me know not to come. After confirming there was no email, her response was “well we were going to”. Which would’ve been fine if it did come through, but instead we wasted 45 min at $60 for the drive, which was treated as ‘well that sucks’
No communication, no flexibility and zero accountability. I’ve worked in food/bev for a very long time. This was quite possibly the worst experience I’ve had. There was no effort to acknowledge their bad communication/organization and no attempt to provide a voucher for the mistake and/or reschedule our reservation for the next available time and day. The attitude of the manager was dismissive and just overall disinterested.
Looking at the other comments here, seems I’m not the only one to have this issue….
Tl,dr… Just buy a bottle.
Tyler Campbell — Google review
Clearly trading off the Mumm brand only. Tasting was awful. We were left 15 minutes before anyone even came and welcomed us, another 20 minutes until the first tasting was served. Then our waitress served us flat (warm) sparkling, claiming that is how it came, and only after I insisted she fetched another bottle then she admitted the last serving was in fact flat.
Then there was a calamity around her dropping a cork somewhere which seemed to be more important to discuss then actually anything about the wine or vineyard. The only fact we got was that they sometimes seat upwards of 500 people a day. I agree - The experience was like being on a factory conveyor-belt line, and not a very organised one at that.
We left there agreeing that this was the worst tasting experience we had tried, by far.

We arrived at Mumm just shy of 1 hour early for our tasting. After check in, the staff informed us that they would not be able to seat us early and we could see that They were busy. Since most vineyards are by appointment only, we didn’t really have a choice but to wait around. Not too terrible since it was a beautiful day. We explored the shop and made our purchases, walked to the vines for photo ops, and even visited the “art gallery” which is more a collection of digitized photos. As our appointment time approached, a random down pour of rain began. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to enjoy the terrace for the Oak Terrace tasting, but we were sat inside due to the rain and about 15 minutes after our time. The wines were nice and the pairings of cheese etc. were ok, but overall we felt the cost of the experience did not justify the quality we received. The one positive part of the experience was our server’s, Eric, knowledge and recommendations. Overall, we wouldn’t recommend Mumm based on our experience, but would recommend the sparkling wines to those new to drinking wines.

Man the sparkling bubbly is very tasty. Man very flavorful and unlike many of the dry and vinegary wine I have had in the past. It was simple to go in and picked up a few bottles. The base wines they sell are just as tasty as the high end bottle so mixed it up. Customer service people were kind and attentive. This wine is a little sweeter than most brand according to colleagues who live in the area. The sweetness totally work for me enjoy!!

The “Oak Terrace Tasting experience” was amazing, but recommended for special moments because of the price. The wines, food, artisanal cheese were all great, and the gluten free toast was very kind (I'm celiac). Excellent service, very comfortable space and beautiful landscape. Tips are charged.

We went here as part of our honeymoon back in September 2023 and had the worst service ever. It was hard to flag down the wine server for the next tasting in our flight every time and he seemingly profiled us as he was keen to cater and service a different table but ignored us every time he passed our table (which was right by the door to go inside). He seemed rushed and short worded with the tastings. This was by far our least favorite tasting experience on our honeymoon and first time in Napa.

We had reservations here and they canceled in us due to weather. However, the weather turned out fine and there was no need to cancel. In addition, I called to try and fit us back in here and they turned us down flat. No ability to accommodate after they canceled on us. Truly poor customer service.
Whitney Knight — Google review
Mumm sparkling wine was wonderful. Our charcuterie plate was wonderful too. However, the gentleman that was our tasting host seemed bored with his job. He was very robotic about his presentation and totally aloof. He poured the sparkling wine and said “let me know how you like it,” and rushed off. We felt like we were a burden to him even though we were the first and only people there. We will continue to buy your wine because we like it. As a representative of your beautiful winery he needs to be more engaging with your customers especially being a manager. The one star is because of him.

Service orientation amongst staff is poor, almost as if they are doing a favour coming to work. The staff show little flexibility to meet customer requirements - we wanted a table in the sun but they wanted to keep it free in order to help in serving the next table! When we took the table in the shade both the gas heaters did not work. The staff fiddled around a bit but left without fixing, without even a word of apology. The server opened a couple of bottles almost in the face of one of our group, showing little regard for personal space.

V. Sattui Winery is a renowned wedding venue and winery situated in Saint Helena, California, at the heart of Wine Country. The winery provides house wines that can be tasted in their tasting room or enjoyed with gourmet takeout on their expansive grassy grounds. With Dean and Deluca conveniently located nearby, visitors can enjoy snacking on tasty treats while sipping wine under the sun.
Did an impromptu picnic lunch and bought a bottle of wine, a sandwich, cheese and Crackers. Ate under the shaded picnic area. The weather was perfect! A very pleasant experience. I love their wines and a big selection of food. I Will definitely go back again and again.

I don't know what else to tell you except that I love V Sattui. Been coming here for over 20 years. They have a good store with gourmet goodies, cooked, cheeses, meets, breads, olives, etc. decently priced for the most part.
Perhaps buy a bottle of wine or three in the wine tasting room. Note it costs $45 per person per tasting. And you're going to have to make reservations because they're so busy. But you can of course buy without tasting.
Then take your goodies outside to their grounds where you'll find picnic tables and benches. Beautiful scenery and trees, lawns, and just pure joy.
It has really changed a lot over the past 20 years. They're catered to the picnic goer and out in so much more parking and seating.
They sell their standard wines as well as master class. It's really a great place to spend a few hours on a sunny weekend.

Great wine tasting and selection at V. Sattui. Lots of people were here when we went on a Sunday afternoon. Definitely make sure you have a reservation for a tasting. This place seemed very family friendly; we noticed a surprising amount of children here. Lots of parking available and is easy to navigate. Good variety of wines available here. V. Sattui will definitely have something everyone/anyone will like. Would recommend to families on vacation, couples that are just starting wine tastings and wine lovers alike.

Great wines! The person who assisted me was Carlo, he knew the wines to perfection. He asked me a couple of questions and he knew exactly which wines I would like. I enjoyed the place and almost all the wines except for the desert one, I didn't like it. I ended up tasting about 10 different wines and i was only supposed to taste 6 I believe. You also get two chocolates while wine tasting. The place has sandwiches which are make there while you look at it. The parking lot was full and it was free however I was told that you need reservations, which I already had but I thought you may like to know if you never been there. One can also get married here the place has a little area for the ceremony and reception. It has beautiful white roses, green grass, and it also has a patio area with benches where you can enjoy your sandwich and more wine of your choice. Some people were dress to impress I wear jeans, white t-shirt and sandals. 🤷🏾♀️ the bathrooms were clean, the place itself was clean. Enjoy and have fun!

V. Sattui is the place to go for anyone looking to hangout and have a good time! Not only do they have a wine tasting room, they also have a market and deli with a plethora of wine to choose from.
Food: They have a market and deli here with sandwiches/pastas and easy eats. They also have lots of cheese, wine, and cracker choices.
Atmosphere: I haven’t been to the wine tasting but I have family who went and thought it was enjoyable. I truly enjoy the outdoor seating with picnic tables under the trees. It is a beautiful and spacious area, however it does get crowded very easily as this place is incredible.
Price: Prices are normal for everything here because it’s Napa Valley prices but worth it for the vibes.
Parking: Parking can be tricky when it’s super busy but they have lots of parking to the side and back of the building. You don’t have to pay for parking.

This is one of the best wineries in the Napa Valley. The good part of this winery is they accept walk-ins. You have the option to buy wine from their store and drink in their common area even if you don’t have an appointment. Their winery tour do require appointment and would advise to get it in advance. The winery is really beautiful and plenty of seating and walking space. Their architecture is very good with plenty of parking space and overall we had a really good time.

Very nice gift shop. Deli food for sale inside including a huge variety of anything you might want for a charcuterie board or wine night. Beautiful outdoors area. Only drawback was you can't just buy a glass of wine. Either have to buy a whole bottle and drink it outdoors or purchase a tasting package at the entrance.

We were able to do tasting without making reservations. Carlo & Joe were great and we had a really nice time trying out the different wines they offer.
Heating available if you choose to do the tasting outdoor.
Surprised that their Madeira is really good. Kindly note that they only sell their wines here. So grab whatever you like while you are there. We were offered 10% on 6 bottles (able to mix)
They weren’t pushy on sales or the membership/club.
Overall we enjoyed our visit, had great time exploring the compound and dont skip the marketplace too as they have lots of treasures in there!

Came here with a group of 4 and what a fun experience!
Good:
- We got extra pours since we had 2 birthdays! Thanks Ed!
- Each wine was really good quality and I liked the dessert wines a lot
- It’s very pretty inside, there’s a fountain and the inside of the tasting room is well lit too
- Price isn’t crazy per person either
Bad:
- A little busy so it might take time for you get served!
Overall super happy with the trip and getting to try out all of the different types of wine.

Would’ve really appreciated if there was a winery tour as well.

V Sattui was such a lovely experience for my wife, baby and I. There was lots of sitting spots in the back and in the front picnic areas. The deli is not crazy expensive and you get really good stuff. You can definitely tell ingredients are high quality. We arrived around 12:30ish on a Friday and it was already busy, so definitely our next visit will be earlier! Try the Spicy Italian sandwich 🥪 it was so goooood!

My most favorite winery so far. The experience was wonderful, the wines outstanding and the service is OMG I have no words. Alicia has so much knowledge and her carisma makes everything special. You sit outside and the view is amazing. They have a market where you can find delicacies, souvenirs, wines and more.

Very nice winery. Oscar explained the history and assisted in our wine tasting. We purchased wine, bread, olive oils, and cheese. Took nice pictures. The property is amazing and great for weddings and grippy events. The staff I interacted with was Julianna, Oscar, and the cashier, who was not very pleasant after it advised her that she overcharged me for bread, had an attitude, and questioned my request. Unprofessional!
Parking was adequate.
Nice place for photos hoots. Best place for kids interested in knowing about plants..

Cool place to take a stroll with the family. Brought wife, baby, cousin, and grandma along on a nice day while some plants were in bloom. Having an app like PictureThis isnt a bad idea if you want to identify and catalog different types of plants. Not too many people here on a nice Saturday evening. Local and nearby shopping and restaurants arent bad and the local college students are mostly respectful of the area and passerbys. Will be back

The California State Capitol Museum is a long-standing museum that documents the history of California in exhibits, artifacts, and more. The grounds of the Capitol are considered to be one of the most beautiful state capitol grounds in the country.
Clean and beautiful. I didn't go inside as I thought I've been to the one in WA DC, so let's save time for something else. However, I was awestruck by the lush green and delightfully fragrant orange trees laden with ripe fruits. They line the pathways and stand tall against the tall palms and buildings in the background. They smell lovely. The rose garden is also breathtaking, there are many varieties. Some people were there to take wedding pictures and Instagram videos, because it's so warm, beautiful and pleasant here. There are hummingbirds hovering above the salvia bushes also. Love this lovely place!

Bad impression at first: the museum is closed. All of it. The rooms, the tours, the store - shut down. This is my third capital building and the least inviting. Every door was closed. If it wasn't for the open session and beautiful architecture, I would have been sorely disappointed. I was able to sit upstairs and listen in on the session which was a treat. I felt a measure of restored faith in humanity. They questioned finance on expenditures and voiced their concerns regarding project deadlines. All without trying to win a vote or hidden agenda. I'm not even a resident in this state, but to hear these politicians speaking up on behalf of the citizens was a breath of fresh air. If you have an hour, take the time and listen in.
Side note: they have wall display cases for each county. Some are elaborate, some a simple and some are a disaster. It's the capital building - do better.

Title: A Historic Gem in Sacramento
The California State Capitol in Sacramento is an absolute must-visit for anyone passing through or residing in the area. As a history enthusiast, I found this landmark to be a treasure trove of political and architectural significance.
The majestic architecture of the Capitol building itself is enough to capture your attention from afar. Upon entering, you're greeted with beautifully maintained grounds and gardens, providing a serene atmosphere amidst the bustling city.
Inside, the rich history of California unfolds through informative exhibits and guided tours. From the legislative chambers to the governor's office, every corner echoes with the stories of past decisions that shaped the state's destiny.
The highlight of my visit was witnessing democracy in action as I observed a legislative session. It's a humbling experience to see the intricate workings of our government firsthand.
Whether you're a history buff, a political aficionado, or simply seeking a tranquil escape in the heart of Sacramento, the California State Capitol delivers an unforgettable experience. Don't miss the chance to immerse yourself in the legacy of this iconic institution.

It's a state capital, full of history, its free. My children love to run around here, my older children and myself got an opportunity to watch the State Assembly in session, that was pretty amazing to see how it all worked. It's beautiful inside and out. Last we went they are doing construction so we only saw about half of the capital. It's worth a visit.

Video should make you giggle but I was serious. I had a great tour of the capital. Security was a breeze. There are some reconstruction happening so beware if that. It was wonderful to see the old offices but I was most impressed with the chambers. I didn’t get to see any actual legislative personnel but I got inspired. You can find paintings of all the known governors of California. Never been a black one, apparently. You’ll love the architecture and strong feel to the building. It’s like a bunker. There’s security and guides all over so you won’t get totally lost. The cafe was closed when I visited. I did get to visit the store. I decided to grab a tie.

It’s beautiful and majestic, well maintained. Visiting this place could help us to have a better understanding about the United States history and how the government employment work back then. It’s renovating different sections of the building so very limited areas we can see. I’m glad we went there.

I really liked that there is a transparency and openness when you come to a Capitol. First, check what are the operating hours. I took a tour at about 12pm. The guide was a very friendly and emotional person. He told amazing facts about California and capitol itself. Just keep in mind many parking lots in downtown are not free.

The number one tourist place in Sacramento, CA, is the State Capitol. As the state capital, it is full of rich history. The entrance is free, and both the interior and exterior are exceptionally beautiful. It is definitely worth a visit, as you can have great historical experiences here. They offer free tours, but it's advisable to check their website for specific days and times. If you're in Sacramento, don't miss the opportunity to visit this wonderful building. The pictures on the walls depict the history of senators. The building is maintained perfectly, and the architecture is commendable!

Beautiful building of a Californian government and museum under one roof. The whole building is A/Ced and you can get some refreshments from the bistro on the ground floor. If you like to find out more about California, put your name down on the list for a guided tour (free of charge). We really enjoyed our time over here and I can recommend it to anybody.

We were visiting Sacramento and decided to check out the California State Capitol. It was built in a Neoclassical style by prominent architect Reuben S. Clark in 1874. At one corner there is a Capital Mall and on another side, there is Capitol Park. The Capitol Museum is on the grounds of the Capitol. It is free to enter on weekdays.
We couldn't enter the museum because it was a weekend, so we roamed around the park. Remember to check out the website before visiting about closures and reservations.
Old Sacramento is a historic area situated along the riverfront, featuring buildings that date back to the Gold Rush era, as well as cobblestone streets and horse-drawn carriages. The region hosts several museums such as the Sacramento History Museum and state Railroad Museum, which provides train rides for tourists. This district also offers souvenir shops where you can buy T-shirts or antiques. Moreover, there are various upscale restaurants and bars that attract college students.
The California State Railroad Museum is a must-see museum in Old Sacramento that features 21 restored locomotives on display. The museum also has exhibits on railroad history, railroad workers, and the diversity of people who work on railroads. The round trip train ride takes visitors along the photogenic Sacramento River and is pulled by either a steam or diesel locomotive.
Museum was absolutely awesome if you have any interest in history, locomotives or transportation. Absolute love scale model trains, transformational (although mostly automobiles) but still found this museum to be a perfect fit. Also caught a docent led tour which explained some of the important pieces. A particular highlight is they have a railroad stake made with pure gold in the display case. Also got to step inside of one of the steam powered trains another docent explained the controls and history. One more docent led exhibit was the mail sorting train cart and it was awesome to see how mail got efficiently transported throughout the country.

Went here 10/22 with my family. Everyone really enjoyed seeing the trains. We went early on a Saturday morning and had a great time. The docents really make the exhibits come alive as they tell the stories of the era. They have a bunch of exhibits telling the stories of the immigrant workers. There are train rides during the day and various events. Upstairs they have a number of hands on exhibits as well as play area for toddlers with train themes. They also have an extensive collection of model trains which was almost as interesting as the real trains. They are remodeling part of the museum when we visited but it didn’t get in our way.

It was the most beautiful concert I have ever been to in person with live instruments. The candles definitely set the mood although they weren’t real candles. It was definitely better to have fake ones that last at all night with no heat in the room since it was already hot in Sacramento, the musicians were phenomenal. The music performed was very exceptional and delightful. I had the best time ever definitely worth the 2 Hour Drive

What a wonderful place to be! My son, daughter and husband LOVE trains so this is always as easy stop when we are in Sacramento! I would definitely give 3-4 hrs to explore and have fun! If you can stay for longer there is plenty to see and do in and around the museum. On top of seeing full size train engines there is a lot of history, displays and trains you can actually get inside and walk around. One even moves said your currently out on the rails. Don’t miss the upstairs! A cute little play area for younger kids, an interactive miniature train village and some STEM play as well. You can also arrange to go on ride as they have a train that goes a couple times a day. It goes down a couple miles then comes right back. I highly recommend stopping by! The gift shop is alot a favorite of ours!

This is a great and well-maintained museum of railroad history in Sacramento, California. We visited on a weekday morning, and there was no rush. Different tickets are available for adults and children. This museum appeals to people of all ages. On Level 1, there is an extensive display of locomotives and carriages from the transcontinental railroad era, providing a fascinating glimpse into railway history. The top floor (Level 3) houses an amazing collection of toy trains, with several of them operational. Additionally, there is a designated train play area for kids. The docents are welcoming and knowledgeable, offering a wealth of stories and information.
While excursion train rides are available, it's important to note that these are separate from the museum entrance. Be sure to check out the gift shop, which offers a wide range of collections including toy trains, keychains, books, coins, caps, cups, and more. I highly recommend visiting this museum; it's a worthwhile experience for everyone.

This is a fantastic train museum exhibit wise. Many train museums have a lot of rolling stock including a lot outdoors where as the amount of rolling stock here is more limited but the restoration quality on most of the cars and locomotives is excellent. The layout and displays are in depth and cover the important rail history of California in particular but also generally. In addition to the ground floor displays including a handful of cars you can go through there is an extensive display of model railroads on the third floor. A small children's play area and a 5 car train on tracks on that same level as well. For the price a really great value and place you can spend a few hours with young and old a like.

Everyone should take a railroad ride, it doesn't cost much. The trip is short but fun, especially when the train changes tracks on the turntable. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and happy-go-lucky. I would recommend this excursion to everyone. This was my first ride. It was exciting to discover how it works. Bring the kids. They will truly love it.

The Smithsonian of Sacramento. A joy for grown ups and kids alike documenting a key industry in US history. The numerous volunteers stationed amongst the trains and carriages dressed up in railroad regalia provided excellent commentary. Well worth admission with multiple interactive displays.

Such a great day! We got there when it opened, best because way less people. The kids had so much fun with them whole place. Loved the chalk, loved the toy trains, loved the dining car. My ten year old son loved asking all the questions and the attendants were so helpful and sweet. Great place to take kids. There is something amazing about kids just wanting to learn about the mechanics without having to prompt them. Trains are awesome! I've been before so today I just followed so the kids around and let them explore. Magical day!

I really like this museum and it's a big deal if you like railroad history. I first came here five years ago and have returned. I rode the train all the way from Detroit to visit it and it's worth the trip. They have equipment you won't see anywhere else. It's known around the world by railfans and it is easy to see why.

The museum is a great Wealth of information about Railroads, the history and very interesting artifacts. Ground floor has covered many historical events and trains while top floors has great toy trains collection etc and some fun play areas. We especially liked the experience of walking through those train compartments that have the effects to mimic the reality. There were employees dressed as the train staff in the exhibits. They were very patient and answered many questions from children. This visit should be included in field trips if school children. The gift shop is cute but the books were a bit expensive. There’s no food in the museum. The paid parking garage in front of the museum was very good.

This museum is one of the finest in the country. There are certainly larger railroad museums. But this one displays it's artifacts in a stunning and accessible way. They are objective and humane about the terrible experience of the Chinese immigrants who built the railroad across the Sierras.
I highly recommend this museum for rail fans and California history buffs alike.

This place is an absolute gem! Don't let the unassuming entrance nor the vaguely disinterested ticket sales clerks fool you, this museum is absolutely amazing! Anyone would enjoy this place, regardless of their affinity for trains! I was truly impressed with every single exhibit. But, my favorite was the train we were able to walk through that had the sound, look, and feel of a train in actual motion. This place is astounding!

This is not only possibly the best railway museum in the world but also one of the best I've been to (maybe because I love old trains :). All possible trains, historical moments related to railways, especially in America, are represented. Everything is very nicely made and extremely interesting. It requires a lot of time to go around slowly, without rushing.
Borislav Bajkic — Google review
Lots of locomotives and cars, some of which you can enter, along with static exhibits devoted to the history of railroads and railroad people. It looked as though the kids in attendance were enjoying themselves, but there definitely are exhibits that older attendees will appreciate more.
The Museum not only celebrates trains as amazing machines, but also reminds us of the importance of railroads in our history and culture.
It is a member of ROAM, which means that you may be able to obtain free admission if you are a member of a museum that also is part of the ROAM network.

First time I go to a railroad museum, but he exceeded all my expectations. If you like learning about stuff or like trains, this is definitely a must stop to do. They have great history from the first train that existed in the United States now to the electric ones. You also learn how the Cole miners used to transport the Cole back in the day.

WOW! So much to see - definitely give yourself at least 2 hours (3+ if you want to read everything). Well worth the $12/adult we spent - I would have paid twice as much if not more. Incredible artistry and museum flow. One of the best museums I've ever seen. There are a few different floors (there is an elevator), one of which is all about toy trains. Gift shop had some really cool stuff as well. Afterward, give yourself plenty of time to explore the area - there's so much to do!

Loved this place. Everything is indoors now (last time I went was a few decades ago). The museum is very clean, and it has multiple restrooms inside the show room. There are multiple floors, and there are wheelchair lifts and elevators, but walking through the train cars is a tight squeeze. They have a free scavenger hunt for a little prize. There is a small gift shop with lots of train memorabilia. Parking is paid street or garage, and it's only a short (underground) walk from DoCo.

Went on a rainy week day so not crowded at all! Always so exciting to see old trains, they look classy and elegant. I particularly enjoyed the ones that's open for entering, not something you can do everyday unless you have a ticket, really gives you a brand new immersive lesson than just signs or videos alone. Although most of the mannequins other than the Chinese section were white dudes and I got spooked by a staff who sat in the car waiting to explain to guests. So beware of white dudes here, they could be real. They also offer the Polar Express train ride around Christmas time which we missed this time. If you're interested get the tickets as soon as you can!

This museum is amazing and very interesting and informative about both the good and the terrible in our history of the railroad tracks built across our country and the trains made that changed how people and goods could travel. The museum is very honest about everything that happened to the workers of all cultures, and gives credit to those who were unrecognized, dismissed, and who didn't survive in that era of such hard labor. I feel proud of all the women and those from other countries that showed their strength and grit and worked just as hard as the men leading them, and continued that work when American men went to war. You can listen to the stories and get on the trains in the museum and witness the beautiful and the tough that happened. Docents are throughout who add to the good and the bad stories. I highly recommend this museum. There are also kids' play areas and many small but elaborate train sets for kids and grownups to enjoy viewing, and some to purchase in the gift shop. I highly recommend spending hours at the museum, plus it's located in a great part of old downtown Sacramento with boardwalks, restaurants, music, and shops for taffy, candy, drinks, and much more.

Castello di Amorosa is a winery designed in the style of a 13th-century Tuscan castle, complete with towers, turrets, and even a dungeon. Visitors can take guided tours of the castle and enjoy tastings of Italian-inspired wines alongside artisan cheeses. The winery offers a mix of Italian and Bordeaux varietals for visitors to try during their seated tasting in the Il Passito Room.
This place was absolutely stunning. The architecture and history behind the castle is incredible. The location is stunningly beautiful and the experience at this winery was superb. I highly recommend taking the Diamond Estate Tour & Reserve Wine Tasting and add the chocolate tasting. Also, I highly recommend requesting to have the tour with Amy as she is an impressively amazing tour guide that makes the experience even better. The wine tasting is excellent and worth experiencing. We definitely plan to return again to enjoy this winery.

Great experience. Castle, Wine and great service what else do we need in hospitality. Views are amazing. Wines wonderful and warm hosting staff. We did the wine tasting tour we were offered a list of wines to select for tasting we had to select 5. If you are new to wines then you can ask the server they will help you select the wines to maximize your experience and tell what to observe while tasting wine and how to enjoy wine with different snacks cheese or chocolates.
They have some really great wines I really liked their Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.

TRAVELERS TAKE NOTE! This place is beautiful but BUSY! I am so glad that I made a reservation, as they have a gate keeper that will not allow you on the grounds unless you have a reservation to be there.
Pros:
-This place is very unique! This castle was built over 30 years ago, however, the owner/creator wanted to create a castle that looks like something out of old world Italy. Everything is hand crafted, and aged to create a wonderful feel of stepping back in time.
-This place has a great wine selection, no matter what your preference is.
-This castle is set up on a hill with beautiful grounds that are well maintained that have a great view. Additionally, they host lots of barn yard animals which is unique.
-They are staffed extremely well, so you are never waiting long for your next wine to try.
Cons:
-SO BUSY! There are large crowds here. If you don't like being around large groups of people on vacation, then I don't think this place would be for you. Trying to carry on a conversation in the wine tasting rooms is difficult.
-I think some of the best parts of the castle you are unable to see unless you pay for the full guided castle tour, not just the self-guided tour and tasting.

Thoroughly enjoyed the wine tasting! Our host was very knowledgeable and had excellent recommendations. The chocolates were very tasty.

Our family (2 adults and 2 kids) had a great time here. We purchased the wine tasting (5 labels per guest) and our server Jeremy E was very courteous and knowledgeable of the castle’s history. When we left the castle, there were several animals (hens, roosters, ram, lambs, goats and emus) for the kids to see. No petting or feeding. The kids still enjoyed it.
We ended up buying 4 bottles and a very decorative pour top (a lion and they have about 20 to choose from in silver and gold) to take home. The castle was beautiful and we would visit it again perhaps to learn more about the castle with a guided tour.

This is the best wine tasting experience that I have ever had and thanks to our host Grace. We really enjoyed our experience. She was very knowledgeable, patient, fun and made us truly comfortable. They have a wide variety of wine for all kinds of wine lovers from sweet to semi dry to dry. We ended is buying quite a lot of bottles cause it’s really good. The best part is they have home delivery at reasonable cost. Don’t forget to try their grape juice in between the wine cause it’s too good. The castle itself is very beautiful. You can opt for a group guided tour or self guided. They have wine tasting in a closed room and in open space too. But you are not allowed to get up in between the tasting to roam around in the castle. Plan your visit for around 3-4 hours cause you will take that much of time to enjoy the tasting and then explore the castle. Lot of picture perfect spots which you don’t wanna miss. It’s a busy place, so plan your visit. Definitely a must visit winery in napa.

I loved the castle experience! Having never traveled to Europe the fairytale lover inside of me was jumping with glee. We purchased the self guided/standing tasting for $50. We drank our wines quickly and then set off to explore the castle and grounds. If I was going to rate the wine I’d give it 3 stars, The Castle 5 stars and the service 3 stars. Our wine server was polite and friendly he just lacked enthusiasm. It was as if he knew the wines weren’t that great and that the best thing about The Castle of Love was the building itself and not the wine. The most expensive wines are delicious ($100 a bottle) but the cheaper wines, (anything less than $100) are meh.
People who payed to sit and taste wine waited a long time to sit in the courtyard, bake in the sun, and drink marginal wines. I highly recommend the $50 route. They take you down to the cool cellar with fans blowing to sip your wine. You have to stand the entire time but you don’t get heat stroke. The $7 chocolate addition was totally worth it in my opinion. 3 delicious fancy chocolates in a lovely gift box. Even if you don’t eat the chocolates on site it makes a lovely souvenir.

This is a must when visiting Napa! Make reservations far in advance! If you don’t have a reservation, they will not even let you on the grounds. The venue is spectacular in and of itself! You can roam the castle! And there’s goats and animals too! Once inside when you have your tasting, they are really accommodating, knowledgeable, and the customer service is impeccable! My family, friends, and I had such a good time here! Definitely get the cheese and the chocolate! Food and wine divine! Their wine stoppers are pretty cool if you notice them! They also sell them in the shop as well as many other things and it’s fun to look around down there! We definitely got more than our moneys worth, and will definitely be back when in Napa again!

Absolutely stunning castle located at beautiful location. Great selection of wine. Our host was super friendly, interactive and knowledgeable about wine. Overall experience was nice. We had booked tour online. Reservation included tasting of 5 wines along with self guided tour.
However, most of the area was restricted for tour. Also, sitting outside on a hot sunny day was not super fun. Overall, I think it’s a lot of money for such a short experience.

We have been here many times but now they require reservations and tasting tickets. It is $60 per person which includes 5 or 6 tastings and a self guided tour ( basically you walk around the castle). It is different from other vineyards and tasting rooms due to the lovely Castle that was built by bringing stones and other artifacts from Italy

Winery with this majestic castle!
Unfortunately it was pouring when we went but still the castle was gorgeous and decor inside was beautiful.
They make American and Italian style wine and we could taste many different kinds of wine there; you can choose which wine to taste from the list and your party can choose different ones.
Their wine is only consumed at this wine tasting since they have so many visitors and what they make is just enough for them. Visiting there during holiday season, the place was super crowded and the rain did not help at all. But we still had a good time.

Reservation in advance is a must. Beautiful castle where you can do a self guided tour in certain areas while you have to have a paid guided tour to visit the dungeon and other parts. La Fantasia is the best wine they have. Nice staff and some of them are from Italy.

Interesting castle, okay wine. As long as you only see it as a tourist attraction, you will like it.
Chris was our host. He's nice, welcoming, and knowledgeable.
+ Nice looking castle, good for taking pictures.
* The castle's outer surfaces are made of stone, other places are a mix of stone and bricks.
- The wine tasting experience was okay. Our group was a little too big for the host to take care of everyone.
- We had to stand for the whole wine tasting (30+ min)

The castle and grounds are absolutely stunning there is no denying that but for the price we paid we were just expecting more.
At the very least we were hoping to like the wines but we really weren't blown away by them at all, the only one we both really liked was the Oakville red priced at $80 a bottle.
It just felt underwhelming considering we paid so much money in comparison to other wine tastings. I am pleased that we went as it was good to experience it but the actual wines were not all that. Also the vast majority of the rooms and areas of the castle is closed off to private tours which we were not aware of prior to our visit so it felt we had quite restricted access. At the end of our tasting we asked if we could purchase more wine to drink but they said no which we couldn't understand as the area was very quiet...

My husband and I came here for our wedding anniversary and we loved it! Do come 10-15 minutes early to get situated with parking and soaking it all in. The drive up was beautiful. Eva was our tour guide, she really educated us on the wine making process and knew her stuff. Because of the group size and large rooms outside and upstairs there were moments where it was very hard to hear her. It is a very busy place and there are constant tours taking place, one right after the other. Once we got into the castle and in smaller rooms it was much easier to hear her. The property was absolutely beautiful! It felt romantic, cozy and gave me European vibes. The wine tasting was good - the pours were a bit on the small/average size but I did enjoy the wines! If you pay extra for the chocolate at the end, it will not disappoint it was delicious! This is also a great place to take pictures with amazing views.
Safari West is a unique and upscale tented accommodation located in a 400-acre wildlife preserve. Guests can enjoy safari tours and a complimentary breakfast during their stay. Although the tents lack modern amenities such as locks on doors, light fixtures in the toilet and shower, air conditioning, refrigerators, microwaves or tubs, visitors are captivated by the experience of being close to nature without any distractions.
This is one of our favorite place to stay. It's the unique experience that you can't find at other hotels. There is no lock on the door of the tents. No light in the toilet. No light in the shower. No air conditioner. No microwave, no refrigerator, no tub. The sink is very small. In addition, there are mosquitoes, and flies.
About 10 years ago, we visited this place in December, it was very cold. This time, at the end of April, it's hot in the afternoon, and still very cold at night. The Internet is very slow.
So, why should we re-visit it? We love wildlife, especially, the beautiful birds. The Jeep tour makes me feel like we are in Jurassic park!

This places was so much fun. Took my 10 year old for a Christmas present. He loved it! The tour was fun and you get up close to the animals. The tent we stayed in was right across from the warthogs and antelope. Although it was cold outside we stayed warm in the text, thanks to the space heater they provided and headed blankets. Would definitely go back.

I have been here once before, and my family and I really enjoyed it. First off, the food is absolutely amazing. A couple things to note, the food isn't available to people who Haven't made a reservation. Even if you are camping in one of the tents, you still have to reserve dinner. Next, the Rooms are really great. They're a little hot during the summer days, but nights are still a little chilly. They have a heater, but we found it unnecessary. The only thing I would say about the rooms is the water is well water so it smells a little funky. If you're not comfortable drinking well water, buy your own bottles outside of the resort. Activities are definitely one of their strong suites. I have to recommend you buy a Safari in advance (2 months prior to your reservations).Notes on the safari. We brought water, sunglasses, and sunscreen. I highly recommend sitting on the top. If you want to sit on the top, make sure to tell your staff member leading your Safari. I really do recommend this place even though the prices are pretty spendy.

We came to Safari West for the behind the scenes tour,(which is only available by calling, not available to book online). I was worried it would be too much for our kids, 2 & 4) in way of walking, it wasn't at all and it was easy to push the stroller around.
In the behind the scenes tour they allow you to feed some of the animals. Kelsey was great at explaining how to feed them and keeping my very enthusiastic but scared 4 yr old safe and happy (and keeping the animals safe from him).
Each person on site was so nice to us and treated us like royalty. I will definitely be recommending this to anyone going to the area.
Most of all, the animals seemed happy and very loved for. They all had ample space and clean enclosures. Each animal has a name that all the crew knows. It was endearing to hear Kelsey tell us each of the animals names and what their personality was like.

So disappointed! Only a handful of animals on the property. Several in old small cages. Bird aviary tour is short, but I like birds. Our tour guide, Sara did a great job. She was very knowledgeable about the few animals on the property and their history. The park's tour bus fumes will almost kill you they are so strong. No walking by yourself in Safari West. You'd be better off going to your local zoo.

We had a great experience with our 2 year old bud. First we spent the night in one of the tent where you can see the animals from the window and the bed was heated and there is a bathroom attached.
We had also the dinner which was like home cooked meal followed by s’mores and that was fun.
Then in the morning we had our breakfast and did the safari.
The safari itself is amazing and we were so lucky to have our guide Richard he is well knowledgeable man and has a sense of humor. He put all his energy to make sure that everyone enjoy the tour. Totally recommend it!

Safari West was a great experience, one that I highly recommend you experience with your family and friends. The ideal time to spend would include an overnight stay at the nature reserve and a tour during the day. You can spend your extra time during your stay looking at all the wildlife and nature around you. It’s also a great opportunity to go for a nice walk, especially during sunset. During the tour, you can learn about all the animals at the park while going on a nice drive on a van and getting a close look at all of them.

Info on endangered animals was fascinating. Tour guide was great and you could tell the staff really care about the animals and birds.
Very hot weather that day. There were multiple water stations with ice cold water available.
Worth the price for animal lovers!

We LOVED it here. This has been on my Bucket List for 15 years, and it was SO worth it. We went as a group of 7. It was rainy and stormy when we arrived and cleared up overnight for our Safari Tour the next day. Bring warm clothes if you get cold easily. The tents are a GREAT experience (we chose the Hillside tents), and while the canvas tents keep warm, the attached bathroom is cold! The animals and birds are super chatty all through the night, so we didn't get much sleep (we didn't expect to get much sleep anyway, though). Staff are helpful and friendly. Dinner was great (even for me as a vegetarian and a guest as Gluten Free), the conservation talks are informative, the included breakfast was wonderful (including Easter Egg dying because we went Easter weekend), and our Safari Guide, Carson, went above and beyond our expectations. He was enthusiastic and passionate, and we were super impressed. You can tell he LOVES his job. You can see all the animals are very well cared for. We all had a great time. Thank you!!!

A friend and I enjoyed a tour last week. It was a wonderful opportunity to capture some great shots of animals and learn more about them from the tour guide. I lived in Santa Rosa for 25 years and drove by the place hundreds of times but never went. What a treat!

I was super excited to take my daughter here but mildly disappointed. The 3 hour tour is roughly 2 hours in the Jeep and 1 hour of walking, which you can do on your own. The jeep ride was fun as we sat on top. Our guide was also great. The number and type of animals seen was disappointing. Two Rinos, about a dozen zebras, buffalo, some giraffe and lots of variations of antelope and birds. I expected Hippos, lions and elephants and a bit more African type safari. The walking section is basically a small zoo and doesn't take an hour unless you want a thorough education. Basically an overpriced zoo with a bit of a safari. Money was better spent on a Disneyland ticket. My soon to be 13 year old who loves animals gave it a 7 out of 10. Perhaps younger children would enjoy it more.

Arrived at park without reservation due to not realizing we needed one. Upon approaching the girl at the front desk we were greeted with rudeness. Trying to allow time to see if the attitude would change, I asked if my family could get in later and was given more snark with a price sheet as if insinuating in silence “are you sure you can afford this?”. As another person approached, we were again rudely asked to MOVE aside. It was like torture trying to get out of her another opportunity for us to visit the park. We ultimately decided to leave. Our departing comment from staff was to firmly insist we don’t take it upon ourselves to wander around the park ourselves. SERIOUSLY?!?! Who would do that? For future reference to management, if they bother to read this, I would suggest training the staff to ask in this situation for any other future openings with even a hint of politeness would be helpful. This park may be wonderful, but we will never go back to see after this experience.

This review is for the Safari West African Tour. This was such a great experience! Our tour guide was Kimberly and she was so awesome. She really kept me engaged during the whole tour and I learned so much! She also gave us opportunities to ask questions which just added more to the learning experience. The tour it self is about a 2.5 hour drive where she stops and speaks about the animals/plants in addition to being right in the enclosure with the animals. The second part of the tour was the walking portion where we got to see additional animals and walk through the bird sanctuary. Everything about the tour is spectacular. Kimberly even went as far as getting the kids who were sitting on top an umbrella from another tour guide. That was so sweet of her to go above and beyond. I will definitely plan to come on the different seasons or book an overnight stay. I highly recommend checking out Safari west!

Our safari trip was amazing, fun and your guide Nichole was very knowledgeable and fun! Room on antelope alley was cozy and view great. Fresh fruit plate while waiting for a fun buffet dinner was a nice touch. Smores later in the evening at the grill pit was fun. They have great attention to detail. Highly recommended stay-cation or vacation tour/stay. Newer Automatic gate for the safari vehicles worked perfect!!

Went here on a day trip/standard tour with the family and loved it. It's pretty much like going to your local zoo, but smaller and a whole different experience. You have to book your tour time online, check in at the main office. Arrive at least 15 minutes before your tour start time. Depending on the guide, you might load up on the visible vehicle right away and do a walking tour of some animals/bird aviary after, or it could be reversed starting order. The vehicles have a top seating section that guest could take turns on if there is more than one group that wants to sit up top. Guides will stop at several locations and talk/give information about animals.

I surprised my partner for his bday, it was a wonderful experience all the way around. Miranda was THE BEST driver/guide, she obviously has passion for the job and is so well informed about all the animals. She answered every question asked and shared some of her favorite things about the animals and working at SW. The tent was great; very clean and though it was cold the heated blanket kept us toasty warm. Highly recommended Safari West!

Visited with my wife and 6 year old for the Safari tour and it was one of the best experiences with animals we ever had. Not only you feel like you're in their habitat but you also learn a ton about each animal in your way. We had a couple of amazing guides and it was clear how each staff member cared about us having a great time and, more importantly, about all the animals there. We booked lunch right after our tour, which was convenient and delicious. Highly recommended!

We took the 2 p.m., 3 hour Safari tour. It was a lovely trip and worth the cost for us. The animals were beautiful and it was fun to ride around amongst the beautiful green rolling hills. We booked on a Friday in the winter, so although plenty of people and full, I could see how the summer months could be stifling and feel overcrowded. We went after days of rain, so the hills were green, the creeks flowing, and the animals excited to be out in the sun with the new spring growth. Thinking it was a midweek, and less crowded, the process of splitting people into groups for the tours, seemed to take longer than it should have. We were told to check in at 1:45 & we didn't get into our tour to close to 2:30. Maybe during the busier times, they have more employees and it goes a bit faster.
We also booked the buffet lunch before the tour. The lunch was tasty enough for the price, and you get plenty of food. For vegetarians, there wasn't a lot of extra choices. However, there was plentiful green salad & asparagus with mushrooms. My husband said the asparagus was too salty. The potato salad was full of mayonnaise, and they put sugar and pineapple in the ranch beans. If you're a meet eater, there was plenty of BBQ chicken and pulled pork, with little white rolls that you could make sandwiches out of. The tea, coffee, and hot chocolate was included. The plus about eating lunch there is you get more time to look out at the animals, which is really what you're paying for. Again, all of the outside tables were full, so busier times you would have to eat inside.
The cost for booking on line, tour and lunch came to $274.27. Somewhat pricey for an afternoon. The bonus is, you can walk around as much as you want for that price. So we got there early and viewed all of the animals that were caged. Pretty much what you will get to see if you spend the night. Although, I'm sure the sunrises and sunsets looking out at the animals is beautiful. They put the giraffes in the barn at night, so you won't be looking out at them. Santa Rosa is close enough that you could find more cost effective lodging if you're worried about the expense. If money is not a concern, I'd be into spending the night. More time watching animals is always a good thing.

I wanted my grandkids to get a taste of what it's like to go to Africa. Safari West exceeded all my expectations. The guides were fabulous! Loved the whole experience. Now I'm sure the kids WILL someday go to Africa and it will bring back wonderful memories of our mini vacation at Safari West. Thank you all! P.S. In my trips to Africa I never got to see rhinos with horns (they had been cut off to discourage poachers), so I was thrilled to see your rhinos with their magnificent horns.

FABULOUS. We did the 3 hour afternoon tour and the entire team working there were so organized and welcoming. The animals were stunning.

Dry Creek Vineyard is an estate grower that uses sustainable and low-impact practices to bring out the unique characteristics of each small lot in their bottles. Visitors have praised the helpful staff, particularly Ian, who provided just the right amount of information without pressuring them into wine clubs. The indoor and outdoor setup at Dry Creek is highly recommended for those in the area. Guests can enjoy a beautiful setting with excellent wine selection poured by knowledgeable staff.
Great atmosphere. I enjoyed the wines and the experience. The salami, crakers and cheese were delicious that I had to bring some back to Texas with me to pair with my wine purchase.

Had a great Bordeaux tasting at Dry Creek this week. Nick was excellent and we felt welcomed from the moment we stepped out of the car (even with being late for our reservation). Initially had a table inside but they graciously moved us outdoors, which made it easier for us traveling with an infant. Both wine and service were fantastic! Don’t miss out on Dry Creek when coming to the Healdsburg area!

Stopped in on a whim and was thoroughly impressed. I’ve “known about” Dry Creek Vineyard for years and have enjoyed some of their wines but for whatever reason had never stopped in. Today we had some time between other appointments so decided to pop in and holy crow I am glad we did. First of all the place is just gorgeous. Like pack a lunch and get comfortable kind of gorgeous. Lots of shaded seating outdoors with nice views and a totally relaxed vibe. Second - the tasting is more of a guided tour through an impressive portfolio of wines that you can only get at the cellar door. I had NO idea. The staff are all well informed, cheerful, and incredibly friendly and down to earth. No snobbery or condescension here. An absolutely fantastic visit and on the list for a return for sure.

Great wine and beautiful winery! The 4 stars only is because I was pretty surprised by the winery staff. I don’t believe all of them were this way but our person was mostly absent, took over 30minutes between pours, and didn’t seem super interested. Could of been having a bad day so I would still recommend stopping by and enjoying the wine and atmosphere.

Thoroughly enjoyed our wine tasting experience at this beautiful winery. The wine selection poured was excellent. Our pourer was very knowledgeable and truly enjoyed sharing her wine knowledge.

They have gardens to wander after the tasting and the views of the vineyards add that special touch.

The sprawling and stylish Francis Ford Coppola Winery is a must-visit destination for fans of the famous family and their renowned Godfather movies. Drawing inspiration from Copenhagen's Tivoli Gardens, the winery offers a sense of being in a children's garden with beautiful theater pavilions, peacock-feather-painted curtains, little ballet performances, rides, cafes and refreshments.
Beautifully manicured, with great views of the vineyards, lots of memorabilia, book in advance if you want to use the beautiful clean swimming pool. I did not do any wine tasting as I buy Coppola wonderful wines already but I did sit at the pool side bar and had one of there yummy cocktails and some lunch. Thanks Coppola family that we can just walk around without wine tastings to enjoy your beautiful grounds, have lunch etc. I came just after the 4ᵗʰ July, so I can imagine it gets pretty very busy. CG

Electric Lemonade by the pool is all I need to say. This place blows the other wineries out of the water!

If you are in Sonoma County I highly recommend to check out Coppola Winery! Of course you will get to taste wine but you’ll also see Oscars that Francis Ford Coppola was awarded for his achievements in movie production. If you are a big fan of his movies you’ll absolutely enjoy seeing costumes and some other things that were used in the movies such as Dracula and Apocalypse Now and etc. Restaurant on the property is such a convenience! You can’t go wrong with pasta 🍝 and wine 🍷

Opened in 2010- it has not lost its luster in 2023. The food is not cheap- but I thought it was actually worth the money. The pork Milanese on the bone was the juiciest I have ever had- ask for an extra lemon to squeeze on top and you will be in heaven. This is a great place to treat yourself or take out of town visitors to. During the hotter month, the swimming pool is a great hang out. The cabanas vary from $180-280 depending on the day of the week and season. They have multiple tasting room options and an outside bar. It feels like a wine and hospitality amusement park. A great place to spend a few hours!

Good place to visit. Actually it is a large giftshop wirh an interesting museum. You see very important props, costumes and pictures of Coppolas movies, his Oscars and other prices and can buy wine and souvenirs. The prices starts at about 20 Dollar per bottle. They also serve food and of course there is wine tasting, but don't expect anything to be a bargain! Sadly they don't have books or autographs of the master himself.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Francis Ford Coppola Winery, and I can't say enough about the exceptional hospitality and dining experience we had there.
From the moment we walked in, we felt like honored guests. Their warmth and generosity set the tone for an unforgettable visit.
Our wine-tasting experience was elevated by Sarah, whose knowledge and passion for the wines were truly impressive. She took the time to educate us about the different varietals, enhancing our appreciation for Coppola's outstanding wines.
But the real star of the show was Nathan at Rustic. His welcoming demeanor and personable nature made us feel right at home. The food at Rustic was nothing short of amazing – from the delectable wine flight to the mouthwatering risotto and meatballs. Nathan's attention to detail and dedication to providing an exceptional dining experience left us speechless.
What truly stood out was the impeccable service we received throughout our visit. Our friends were equally impressed, and we're already planning our return trip with family.
The Francis Ford Coppola Winery is a gem, and I can't wait to celebrate more special occasions there. I'll definitely be leaving a 5-star review on Google as well to let others know about this hidden treasure.
Thank you, Lillian, Rose, Sarah, and Nathan, for making our visit so memorable. We can't wait to return and create more cherished memories at your winery!

My friends, for any Brazilian who likes to go to São Roque in São Paulo, you should know this place. I feel in the same atmosphere and with excellent wines from the Napa Valley region.
The place is beautiful, extremely set for Coppola's films, with vineyards in the background and always full of people.
The food is American style, but pleases with its quality and flavor, logically enjoyed with glasses of wine from the region and Coppola's fields.
It's worth a lot if you're visiting San Francisco, to visit Napa Valley and also the Geyserville region.
An obligatory stop for those who like wine and good mountain air.

So today was our first time . So happy we did this. The guy who helped us was named Steve and he was so nice and full of great information. The property is filled with memories from Francis Ford Coppola, a restaurant, a pool open all summer long for guest by reservation, and much more. It was $25/ person for the “at bar” tasting including 1 white and 3 reds. If you choose the outdoor specialty tasting (for the reserves where you can only purchase in house) it costs $40. They of course have a wine club where you can purchase the level of your choice. The staff was very friendly, educational on both the wine and property, and our overall experience was an A+. Also, the property is close to many other vineyards, so this can be one of your many stops in the area.

If you are a Coppola fan, this place is a MUST STOP. There are so many great places to sit and enjoy a drink here - outside or inside, and lots of gift items for sale inside. Since I was short on time, I just cruised through the exhibits of movie memorabilia upstairs and down, which is worth the visit alone. I appreciate that this place (unlike Inglenook and most others) allows you to drive in and walk around without a reservation, and there is ample parking outside. People working here seemed friendly and welcoming too. I'll definitely be back to spend some more time here!
Amazing experience, amazing people! The energy was very similar to how I felt at summer camp as a kid. It gave a lot of "unapologetically ecstatic to learn" vibes.
We held the Screech Owl, the smallest one, got to feed it chopped mouse, and then got a photo opportunity. They made sure everyone (9 total people) got a chance to hold, pet, and get photos.
10/10 suggest everyone goes.

An amazing, one-of-a-kind experience. Even with the 2+ hour drive to get there from SF, and the considerable price tag, it was well worth it.
They offer all kinds of experiences with the various types of raptors, and we opted for a private hawk walk (it's possible to choose 2 out of: hawks, falcons, and owls, and I reckon some would enjoy the variety, but we really wanted to focus on getting to know one bird and the hawk sounded like the most interactive one).
After an extensive and informative introduction about the history of falconry, the types of birds they have, their habits and characteristics, we (my fiancee, the 2 falconers, and myself) went out to the wooded area behind the farm with a hawk named Mariposa. We learned the proper way to call her to our glove, and throughout the experience could more or less go where we wanted, call her, walk around with her for a bit, and then have her take off to perch as she pleased. There were also a few specific "tricks" we got to do with her and all kinds of photo ops, but to me the best part was probably just casually strolling around with a bird of prey on my arm.
It's something my fiance had dreamt of doing since she was a kid, and she came out feeling her expectations had been more than met.
We'd seen falconers at Renaissance Faires and such, but getting to actually interact with them is something different altogether. Something more people should definitely get to experience.

The Hawk Walk was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Being so close to these animals and learning so much from the incredible team was an experience I will not soon forget. Excellent people doing excellent things. Education is the frst step towards conservation and these folks do it EXTREMELY well.

This was an amazing face to face experience with hawks, falcons and owls. Seeing them up close and handling was a magical experience. They are very knowledgeable about the animals and actually use them for hunting. We saw little training toys they use and how these birds of prey are trained to hunt with their human partner. Of course taught to call birds to yourself with guidance and even walk down a trail with hawk Isla on your arm! Overall would go again and take different family with me to experience this as well.

We had a fantastic morning with Kate, Amber, and Morgan leading us on the falconry & hawking adventure of our dreams! It is such a unique experience to get so close to the birds - falcons, hawks, owls, vultures - and to see them fly free. The interaction that they can provide with their licensing, training, knowledge and location is amazing! I would recommend this to anyone - those who know they would love to know more about these birds and those who've never thought about it at all. I hope we get the chance to go back again. Thanks so much for the best day!

West Coast Falconry is amazing! I visited with my sister and did the triple raptor experience. We interacted with a falcon, a hawk and an owl, learning interesting facts from the raptor experts. I highly recommend visiting West Coast Falconry. It exceeded expectations, and I expected it to be a wonderful experience.

Enjoyed the Owl encounter. We had one one one time with about 5 owls. We learned about them. Got to touch them. The Owls flew to us. We seen them eat. We had great picture time. If you are fascinated by owls, this is a great experience. The 2 instructors were amazing! They knew alot about owls ans were able to answer all of our questions. We flew in just for this experience!

West Coast Falconry is an incredible business! I've done several of their classes and absolutely loved every single one. The birds are spectacular and Kate and her staff are so knowledgeable and helpful. I enjoy them so much that I wanted to include them in our wedding. A falcon was included as part of our ceremony was truly beautiful. Kate and Leah stayed after the ceremony with a Eurasion owl and a falcon for the guests to interact with and get photos with. It was an absolute highlight of our four-day wedding event! I can recommend West Coast Falconry without hesitation!

Bought my daughter the Triple Raptor Experience as a birthday present and she loved it. Erika and Faith were fantastic, made sure everyone had a turn with the birds, and were very willing to answer all our questions. We would definitely come here again.
Serene park with lots of tree-shaded paths for walking & biking, plus picnic sites & a playground.
It made me want to move there! And we were just at one spot of the 11 mile journey!! Loved it.people were way nicer than in my hometown.much love and respect for the area!!

Such a beautiful park with tons of shaded areas and space for the family. During the summer they have lifeguards. There is a snack bar, restrooms for you to rinse off, a nice creek next to the pool and a toddler area (water is very low for kiddos to enjoy 🥰). Plenty of picnic tables and you have a park next to it plus plenty of hiking and paved trails

This is a review for the amphitheater only:
Extremely impressed! I go to around 25-30 shows a year and have been to literally 100s of venues. I know this is the first year of operation for this amphitheater and I know there is some kinks they'll work out. However overall it was VERY well done.
The sound system here is obviously brand new, and is very high end. It sounds incredible for the size of this venue, and the owners did not skimp on building it.
The security staff was impeccable! They did a amazing job of keeping people out of the isle and from standing at the gates in front of crowd blocking paying front row ticket holders views( this is a major issue at many places) they staff was friendly and did a good job of discerning between people blatantly breaking rules and people respectfully have a good time.
The only issue here is parking and traffic control.
The parking could potentially be fine with some or ANY parking control people on staff. There was literally not a single person directing traffic in or out. The did not close lanes or make one way traffic to flow the crowd out or in. People were moving and breaking barricades and blocking others. The walk from the rear parking lot is over 1/4 mile from the entrance and dirt.

Needed a pet-friendly room on short notice. Reservations were made quickly and easily with Bonnie by phone, who was friendly and knowledgeable about the property.
Arriving very road weary, Jerry was patient and understanding, made check-in easy, plus he offered a special treat for our small canine traveling companion.
Our room was clean, modern, and honestly nicer than I expected.
Brewery had a nice on-site brewed cold beer ready for me, and the kitchen made a surprisingly decent Cobb salad.
We are very pleased overall and will definitely stay here again.

It's my favorite casino on the western half of the US. Plenty of restaurant options, all of which are great. Customer service is always great. Drinks aren't horribly expensive. The win / loss ratio is very good. Rooms are great ( north tower ). Overall, must stop if traveling I5.

A nice spot to rest when you travel north, a lot of slot machines, RV parking and you can bring your horses here, friendly and the food is very good, they also have concerts and comedy shows, if you are lucky you can see the wild turkeys dance 🦃 around the area.

Attended a private party at Rock n brew in the back room. Great space. The wait staff was wonderful. The bartender was great when we asked for big beers with olives. I highly recommend the restaurant.
We were here on a Saturday night, and they had a great DJ at the main bar on the casino floor. I danced and had a wonderful time.
Later in the night, however, my husband did not have a good experience. Someone bumped him at the bar and spilled a bit of his drink on the floor. After setting the drinks down, he saw a staff member with a rag wiping the bar. He touched his elbow so as not to startle him by coming up behind him. He told the guy about the spill to be helpful so no one would slip and get hurt. The staff member instead yells at my husband not to touch him and walks away. The bartender who witnessed this apologized and asked if he wanted to speak to the supervisor. He did, and after waiting a long time for him to show up, he explained the situation and showed him the spill. The supervisors response was to tell my husband not to touch his employees. My husband was dumbstruck. The supervisor walked away. Patrons sitting nearby asked if my husband was okay because he was just standing there wondering what the heck he did wrong. They stated that they watched the whole thing and he didn't do anything to deserve to be treated like that. And guess what? No one ever cleaned up the spill.

So. This review is most for the Amphitheater and their security for the great white/ slaughter concert.. security was a joke!! Wouldn't let the paying customers sit under the cool down misters to actually cool down. But instead kept kicking them away from them, and just walked under them as their own way of power or some sh×t!! My family and i have had many great concerts there, but after this horrible experience, and especially in an extreme heat wave that we had. Unfortunately, we will not be going back! Ever!

Talk about a 5star experience. This place actually FEELS like a Vegas casino now since the remodel and update. Every employee I have come into contact with seems to have costumer satisfaction as their #1top priority. .... And the concert venue?!!??!!! Absolutely LOVE it. Their selection of machines to play and food to eat is an experience in itself that I highly recommend, and if u can stay in one of the hotels, I recommend that also. If your a golfer, U will NOT be disappointed in this challenging yet user friendly course just Make sure u bring LOTS of sunscreen as there isn't much shade!!! Their EQUESTRIAN CENTER hosts all kinds of horse events/classes And last but not least be sure u fill up on gas before u leave the casino as their gas is the CHEAPEST around for hundreds.... Yes, HUNDREDS of miles!

We really enjoyed our stay. Our check-in, with Gerry, was a positive experience. He recommended some great menu choices at the restaurant in the casino, and he had a great demeanour!!
The rooms are clean. The beds are comfy and the rooms are quiet and have a fridge and microwave.
We played some slots in the casino and had a wonderful dinner at the rock and brew restaurant.
The only negative was the lack of parking around the south tower, and the grouchy front desk girl, at the travel center in the morning.
We would definitely be back and highly recommend this Resort.

Main entertainment attraction in the area I visited. Newer slot machines, video craps and roulette, 5 active card tables (last time visiting at around 11pm), multiple eateries inside and live entertainment (as scheduled). Can't be mad at the location, turned out positive on my visit. For a not so frequent gambler definitely makes me want to come back for another opportunity!

Rolling Hills would be the best casino in California's northstate IF they had a poker room.. I understand Poker doesn't bring in a large sum of money but it would bring in many people who would hit the main floor before or after playing a tournament. Overall great atmosphere (they aggressively clean the air so it's not too smoky) lots of slots, I think 3 bars in total so drinks are never far away. Fast dining options plus a sit down steakhouse that is sound proofed from the noises of the floor. I greatly enjoy Rolling Hills and It would be my #1 place to gamble IF that poker room existed.

A good sized modern Native American California Casino that's well lit, unlike many other versions that I have seen. It has many different slot machines available, for the gambling type, so you'll have a chance to pick your poison, so to speak. Additionally, they have a few different food options that are priced similar to other non-casino restaurants. Additionally, they offer a gas and diesel filling station on the South side of their property that has about 8 pumps, so it can get crowded fast. The good news is the fuel cost is usually a little less than other gas stations near by.

Rolling Hills Casino truly is the friendliest casino, just like they advertise on their billboards along the 5 freeway. 10/10 would recommend, the staff always delivers top-notch customer service every time we visit. All the employees are great but a few of my personal favorites that I feel should be acknowledged are Josh and Justin at the bar with all the whiskey. They both make a mean old-fashioned and at the front of the house, the best casino host award goes to Michael Gonsalez, he is always attentive and greets both my husband and me, with a great smile. We have been to the concert area and the comedy show, needless to say, we had the best time each time. My husband also played at the golf course and took some friends over, they loved it. Thank you Rolling Hills for making our weekends fun and exciting!!
P.S
I will be bringing my family and friends over whenever they come to visit to experience Rolling Hills as well💵🔥
Additional info: on the south side, they have diesel and regular fuel(diesel a few cents than at a regular gas station). They also have eletric chargers on the back north side, they are a little hidden but they are there. If you have a Tesla u will need your adaptor to charge FYI.

I recommend this place! Especially if you are travelling northbound, it's a perfect stop to relax at! Great Casino & amazingly beautiful, clean, new hotel!! At under $100 per night you can't beat the value! They have a nice handful of 'fair' tables and plenty of slots... Excellent food, never overcrowded anywhere in here. Can Casinos be cozy??? 😉All staff & dealers are super helpful and friendly. Well cleaned and kept....all in all 5/5!

Lassen Peak, also known as Mount Lassen, is a 10,460 ft. mountain and active volcano offering a popular hike and climb to the summit. The area features the famous Bumpass Hell trail, showcasing Yellowstone-like volcanic landscapes with boiling mud baths, gas expelling fumaroles, and colorful rock formations.
I really enjoyed hiking to the top of Lassen Peak as it offers a lot of great views along the way and the signage throughout the hike is very informative! Although it was foggy, I really enjoyed it regardless! I recommend coming early as this hike will take up between 3-4 hours to finish!

Summiting Lassen Peak is exciting. It's a relatively moderate to strenuous hike with a relatively steady initial climb, a couple of switch-backs around 10,000ft and a final scramble to get to the summit! It's about 5 miles in total from the parking lot and back and around 2000ft in elevation gain. The views once you get up to the peak are certainly spectacular since the summit itself is at around 10,500ft, pretty high when compared to other nearby peaks. There are views of the valley and Bumpass hell as you climb. Recommend lots of water and electrolytes for the hike!

I did this hike on 11/17/2019.
Lassen Peak isn’t easy hike because a lot of elevation changes,
Only a little over 5 miles RT.
But it starts from 8,363 to 10,321 feet, each of the mile is almost 1,000 feet.
Good workout.... trail is so nice, well maker, very detail,(thank to Lassen park).
Spectacular ,panoramic,uninterrupted view.......
Up only haft mile, I’m able to see 3 lakes,(Helen lake, Jupiter lake, and one more but I don’t know the name of this lake).
Up one mile,I’m able to see Cinder Cone.
Mile and a half up, I’m able to see Lava bed,
And up to the top, I’m able to see Mount Shasta.
On the way down,I’m able to see sunset in Lassen National Park.
Love this trip a lot.
I will come back to Lassen Volcanic for different hike.

Been on the list for a long time. Hiked on July 20.
We went up to the top of Brokeoff Mountain the day before. Much more difficult and less traveled than this trail.
Conditions were beautiful the day we went. Followed suggestions of other and got on the mountain early while the snow was firm. Bottom third was covered in snow. We used trekking poles and micro spikes and felt comfortable in the snow. Those in tennis shoes were slipping and falling. Some places would be dangerous slipping around.
Once you get to the switchbacks, it’s easy peasy. Very groomed and even has stairs! The top was gorgeous. We came to the peak just as a marriage proposal was happening! She said yes!!
Be sure to make the scramble to the actual highest peak if you want to be on the top top.
Great hike.

Climbing Lassen Peak is a nice, non-technical hike on a well maintained path. We did this in July and there were only a couple of very short patches of snow on the trail up, and the walkable snowfield at the top. There was no rock hopping until the 100-yd summit scramble up from the large level top area where most hikers stopped. The view from the top is very nice, and Shasta 70 miles away dominates the northern view.
Parking was easy at the trailhead at 9am on a Friday, and the trail wasn't too crowded. We spent an hour at the summit and were down by 1pm.
Bob Frommer — Google review
Hike is only about 5 miles round trip but the 2.5 miles up include 2000 feet of elevation gain. First mile is the tough one as you're getting acclimated to the elevation. After that it's just a series of simple switchbacks to the top and a short scramble at the top. Lots of folks on the trail on a Friday, fortunately almost everyone wore masks. There was a large patch of snow at the top in late July but it does not hinder the hike at all. You can even see Shasta from the top.
Turtle Bay Exploration Park is a large natural history park that offers visitors a range of attractions, including a museum, botanical garden, and forest camp. While the museum may be on the smaller side and can typically be explored within an hour, the vast park requires several hours to fully explore. The playgrounds are great for children and feature zip lining activities. One of the highlights is feeding the lively parrots or lorekeets.
Amazing park and museum to spend few hours. Museum is quite small and can be done within an hour. The park is huge and takes couple of hours. The playgrounds are good for kids with zip lining and all. Lorekeets /parrots feeding is a blast and definitely do that

Edited: Nice place for kids to learn new things and explore...
Some things didn't seem correctly priced ... $3 for a stick to attract the butterflies... I saw better butterflies outside in the wild! We barely saw 10 simple butterflies that day... maybe it was the heat, it was 110°... Other people's reviews and pictures are 100x nicer than our experience. While it was so warm kids didn't want to play in the park. I'm sure they would have loved it if the heat wasn't as scorching.
The parrots seemed more worth the money... it was $2 for a nectar cup and parrots came straight to you when you get those cups.
The Tutankhamun exhibition was nice... it was scary for the little one though (3 year old, got scared of the animal figures) but the teenager loved it all.

Calling this lovely place a park is an understatement. It is more like an amusement park: a zoo, a museum, several hiking trails, a botanic garden (closed) as well as adventure-style playgrounds. A great place to learn and play with kids. This place is full of love and support from the community.

Took the Family to Turtle Bay Museum for the tree house exhibit. It was so much fun and so many activities to do. My kiddo made a binary bracelet with his initials, chalk art, dressed up in scientist and engineers clothing and got to play in the tree house. The marine exhibit and art gallery exhibit was amazing to view. Our favorite activity is to vote for what to see for future displays. After, we like to go walking to the nursery.

Iris Herron — Google review
I let my assumption of it using the word turtle…that I would see more then 2.
Is this a cool thing to do with kids, yes.
Should you spend 4 hours here for your moneys worth, yes.
The cost is around the same amount I would pay for a zoo with 2x the animals. So I do think the price is a bit stiff.
The building itself didn’t have much animal wise to see. Thus assuming that’s the museum part? But it’s called Exploration park? Which the park (play grounds) is attached to the museum an only accessible via museum tickets. So it shouldn’t show up as a separate google maps pin an parents assume it’s just a park to go to.
That being said. The staff were all wonderful.
The animal show was cool. We loved that they walked the animals close by. Highly recommend if your child can sit for 35 mins an not move nor eat.
Bathrooms, ✔️
There are two play areas an unfortunately people do not know how to read signs. There was a family with larger teens throwing water bottles an jumping in the toddler baby section with their parents. Leaving the area unfortunately unsafe to let the little kids explore safety. There needs to either be a larger more obvious sign or a staff member.
The parrot feeding was super cool. Respect the staff an what they say. If you know your kids can’t handle direction don’t set them up for failure an walk them inside.
The map they give makes it seem like it’s massive an large when it’s really small an the font is hard to read. We missed tons due to time an unsure of where to go.

An excellent spot for families, ideally children.
The inside of the museum is focused on local history, such as the Wintu, Redding in the 20's, local biodiversity, etc.
There's a dedicated hands-on section in the back that's good for young kids.
The backside of the museum is the actual park and quite expansive. There's a sizeable playground for families and an area to interact with exotic and local birds.
Further down is a trail that extends for a mile or so and you can check out small caged areas for hawks or the bobcat.
Definitely an easy way to spend 90 minutes to get an idea of the area.
It's also common to find stray cats nearby as the locals pointed out that there's a gentleman who tends to them.

It was a very rainy day as I stopped by the museum to
visit the aquarium and the
local history exhibits.
The museum has a nice
exhibit on the Wintu tribe
that has lived in the area
for over thousand years.
You will find an exhibits
on the building of the
Sundial Bridge, an aquarium with beaver and fish, a
urban watershed river lab,
and local history.
It was raining too hard to
visit the other parts of the
park including a botanical
garden, arboretum, and
a forest camp with a parrot house.
I did stop at the bistro for
lunch and had a nice Asian
Chicken Salad.
Located on Sundial Bridge
Drive along the Sacramento

botanical garden, a old time
forest camp with animals,
and much more.

Stalactite- & stalagmite-filled caves accessed by tours that include a boat ride on a scenic lake.

Love, the cavern caves!!!! It's such a great experience!! 👍 Here are just a couple of notes; Buy your tickets the same day. Arrive 30mins prior to start time. Purchase your ticket at the gift shop. Then you walk about half a mile down the hill. To the river. You catch the ferry. To get across the lake. After, you get on a bus that takes you up the hill. To the Cavern caves. Pinkie was our tour guy. He was very informative and very patient. With 5 crazy girls on his ferry and trip.

This is the time to go. Don’t put it off any longer!
We’re local so We waited till Shasta Lake was full before we went and boy are we glad we did. We didn’t have to walk the half mile to the boat - just down the steps outside the gift office and down just a little where we boarded the boat. Awesome 10 minute boat ride across the beautiful Lake Shasta in all her glory. Then boarded the bus up to the caverns. Even that was fun. We had a great tour guide, Melanie who was informative and you can tell she loves her job!
Inside the cave was something I don’t get to see. Another world. A little slippery but good sturdy shoes helps.A lot of steps! Coming off knee replacement it held but wow what a workout and I was lagging behind from the 80 steps till the end.
We saw bats who were sleeping!
All in all a most enjoyable trip. Now sometime in July, we’re planning to go on the Dinner Cruise.

Our tour guide Ashley was awesome!
She has and shared an abundance of knowledge about the caverns. She made it fun for everyone on the tour. Her personality and experiences in the caverns gives Ashley a unique insight that makes the tour feel as if the experiences were your own.
Tipping is a thing and I encourage visitors to tip your tour guide at least.
Our visit started with a ten minute boat ride across Lake Shasta. Our Captain Donna was fun to talk to.
Then we were bussed between 800 & 1000 feet above the lake on the mountainside to the cavern entrance. The bus driver shared a bit of history and lore along the route.
Tours leave every half hour.
The gift shop has cold drinks, shirts hats and treasures. The staff is very friendly and fun to talk to when they aren't busy.
No backpacks allowed, water bottles okay.

Great tour, and it's definitely worth a stop! Friendly and knowledgeable staff and guides. Boat ride over to the caverns was awesome, and on a nicer weather day, I could see it being really cool for spotting wildlife, etc. Bring warm hats and rain gear because if it's raining, there's a good chance you'll get wet. Caverns were spectacular! There's lots of great formations and picture worthy spots. On a side note, if traveling to the caverns via truck and travel trailer, the road to the tour site is narrow and windy, but we made it easily with our 30-foot trailer, and there was space to park.

Totally worth the visit! Get ready to climb lots of stairs. The visit begins with a boat ride, then bus all the way to the caverns, and then the climbing begins. Our tour guide was super informative and funny. A must for the whole family when visiting the area. I recommend packing a lunch since there is nice picnic tables available as you arrive.

Tourist attraction. The caverns are pretty amazing! The boat ride then bus ride up the hill is adventurous. The guides that work there are very friendly and knowledgeable! You definitely need reservations to get on their schedule though. It gets pretty busy

If you're looking for something adventurous, educational and exciting to do at Shasta Lake, this is it!
It starts with a scenic boat ride across the lake where you are guided to a bus that drives 8 miles up the side of a mountain to the caverns. Be ready to get your steps in. There is a lot of stair climbing involved but it is totally worth it. every step. I felt like Indiana Jones exploring a lost cave !
They have really great tour guides and the caverns are super cool with a lot of really great history. Everybody from the boat staff, to the bus drivers, to the tour guides are very customer service oriented and helpful.
There are some very cool things and really good deals in the gift shop. I recommend checking it out after you return from the caverns. We will definitely go again!

Amazing place for visiting with the cave!
Check in 15 mins before the appointment at the balcony next to the side gate of the visitor center, and then walk along the stairs down to the lake side for boarding. Match your number on the cover of the booklet with the bus to reach the top of the mountain. Another tourist guide will lead you to inside of the cave. It takes about an hour for cave visit. Nice view of the lake!

A beautiful day for traversing Lake Shasta and exploring the spectacular caverns. Every staff member we encountered was knowledgeable and friendly. From check in to the gift shop to the two bus rides, the boat ride and the actual tour, it was remarkable and delightful. If you want a full tour with guide we recommend you avoid holiday weekends. We will definitely be back!

Last tour is at 4p. They run every half hour. It was $40 for an adult.
Free parking. Some food in the gift store. You take a 10min boat to the actual cavern. Views are beautiful on the lake. Tour was about 45 minutes. A lot of walking. A lot of stairs. Weir good shoes. Tour guide was funny and informative.

Great tour that starts off with a boat ride to the other side of the lake, then a bus ride up the hill. Once you enter the cave, there are a lot of steps and narrow hallways, but it's very cool to experience the natural beauty of the caves. The tour staff were informative and friendly.

We got rained out during the tour but the views on the boat ride and up the hill at the cave entrance and exit were phenomenal! Our skillful tour guide, Tim, was also the boat and bus driver and was good at answering our questions. The caves were extraordinary and worth more than we paid. 11/10 would recommend and do again.

Amazing and very friendly crew! The cave tour was mind blowing, very beautiful rock formations. We had a tough time in the rain, be prepared to get soaked and cold even with raincoats. Ponchos might be a better help. Worth the trip though! Lots of stairs and walking, but nothing too intense.

The trip started with a fairy boat crossing the reservoir with the guide giving information on the changing water levels. This tour is not wheelchair friendly as it requires climbing steep steps. Lots of walking required but definitely worth it to see these great formations. The tour guides are very informative and answered all of our questions. Would highly recommend stopping by to visit if you are up in Shasta

We loved our experience! My dad is a stroke survivor, has limited strength and walks with a cane. We called ahead to ask details about the amount of walking and stairs involved in the tour. This is definatly not for the weak. We were given good detail about the stairs in the tour but not the amount of stairs and walking required to access the boat. It is a five minute walk depending on the level of the lake. And the decline to the lake is significant! My dad was determined and we took our time. Our tour guide Nichole was very kind and gracious. The experience was well worth the extra effort. But I would encourage you to know your limits.

This was my second time at the caverns. Really great value, especially if you'd never seen anything like this before. The rock formations are incredible and you get to look at them for about an hour and a half. Now I'd like to mention that if your tour guide is Joe, you're in for a treat! The man has an amazing ability to present facts and history about the caverns in a way that will really catch your interest. All in all, I highly recommend going on a tour.

Located amidist lake Shasta, its a natural beauty of rock formations. The tour takes approximately 2 hours including boat travel and bus to caves. The crew and guide were very friendly. Steps inside the caves are quite narrow and slippery so be cautious. The rock formations are incredibly beautiful and amazing. Worth every penny.
Forest landscape, marked by a 129-ft. waterfall, for camping, picnicking & hiking.
I have been coming here for most of my life. Burney falls is a fantastic place! There are hiking trails, lake access, and camping areas. The falls itself is an awesome sight.
There is an overlook and then a trail that leads all the way to the bottom. You can get right up to the base of the pool.
This is a place to visit for the whole family. The gift shop has plenty of keepsakes and even soft serve ice cream!

Managed to check out yet another waterfall during our latest trip, and while Burney Falls wasn't my absolute favorite, it was extremely impressive up close, and has a fun little hiking loop to take if you wanted to.
Got there around 8:15AM, and I HIGHLY recommend getting there as early as possible! We found a parking spot up close to the Falls, but by the time we left (around 9:45AM), there was a line of cars waiting to get in that stretched BOTH directions on the main road in. I'm assuming youre wait would probably be around a half hour at minimum, if there was even space to park to begin with (no idea if they cap the amount of people coming in, so they may well have been holding people until others left).
We had our dogs with us, which unfortunately, are unable to go down to the Falls. You are allowed to have them on the paved lookout platform at the top, but we were told the only other spot dogs were allowed at was a mile-ish long trail down closer to the lake by some campgrounds. We didn't end up doing that trail, and one of our group was fine staying with the dogs while we went down to the Falls, but just know be aware.
The hike down was pretty cool, as you have a view through the trees the entire time. There are some spots with stairs, but most of it is smooth pavement. There are some fairly steep sections, and the general area was covered in mist spray from the Falls, so it was pretty slick. Definitely don't recommend walking down in flip-flops...
The views at the base were crazy! The noise and power the water has was impressive to see and hear. There were some folks taking wedding photos down at the bank of the water, which is a bit of a bummer as they were ruining one of the better angles you could take photos from.
The path away from the Falls followed the water for a bit before coming to an small little half-moon shaped bridge. There aren't steps up and down, and instead it's just a smooth wood deck, so considering how slick it was, it was a bit tricky getting across it. It also felt very rickety once you were on it, haha. From there, it starts heading up hill at a decent clip, and while there are a few spots to see the Falls from here, it's mostly covered by hillside or thick tree lines. There are a few sets of steps once you get towards the top. It then stays fairly level, the view of the source water opening up once you get past the Falls, where you see another, much sturdier bridge you have to cross. Once you cross this, it's just a couple hundred feet or so until you're back to the start viewing area.
It was a nice little scenic hike, and was mostly shaded, so definitely nice and cool. As mentioned before, there are some other areas to explore there, but we ended up just checking out the Falls loop and then leaving.

This was my second visit here, so I'm very lucky! I took my friend here to show her the falls. We went on labor day and there was a crowd of course. The line to get in was a little long. The weather was perfect. It does get really chilly as you approach the falls though. The general store is great! There are plenty of restrooms here, right across from the general store. The visitor's center was closed due to the holiday. The falls are a blessing to see. The loop is only a mile or just over a mile. It's not too long and easy to do, worth it. Just An absolute must see! The standby bridge is just down the road too.

Where do I even start. I’ve been wanting to go to Burney Falls since foreverrrr ago and never had the time because it’s far from me… but let me tell you it’s def worth the drive! The entrance is only $10 per car and it’s valid until sunset.😊 If you’re putting it off this is def not a crazy hike it’s more of a misty walk down to the fall. If you do keep going the Falls loop that is all uphill but we’ll worth it.😊 The restrooms are located by the general store. They were really clean. We did get there at 8am and there was hardly people def recommend to be early to avoid the crowds.

What a marvellous spot to visit!!
Absolutely loved these falls and it was the star attraction of my Mount Shasta trip.
The falls are North facing so from perfect picture point of view, I don't think it makes much difference but mornings are the best time to visit when the sunshine can be on your face in an angle with the falls in the background.
I went on a weekday morning around 9 am, still there were atleast 10 people in the area. Luckily I could have some clicks without people in the background.
Entree Fee is $10 and you should take the Burney loop trail too to view the river, a cute bridge and the falls from the top.

Mount Shasta is an awe-inspiring destination that offers a challenging yet immensely rewarding mountaineering experience. Our group of five embarked on the journey to conquer its peak, and the sense of accomplishment we felt upon reaching the summit was truly unparalleled.
The ascent was undoubtedly difficult, requiring perseverance, physical endurance, and mental strength. However, the collective determination and support within our group propelled us forward, overcoming every obstacle along the way. The journey tested our limits, but it also pushed us to discover our true capabilities.
The breathtaking views that unfolded as we climbed higher were simply extraordinary. The rugged beauty of Mount Shasta and the surrounding landscapes took our breath away, making every step worth the effort. The panoramic vistas from the summit allowed us to witness nature's grandeur in all its glory, leaving us in awe of the world around us.
The satisfaction we experienced upon reaching the peak of Mount Shasta was indescribable. It was a culmination of our hard work, determination, and unwavering spirit. The sense of accomplishment that washed over us was overwhelming, reminding us of the incredible things we can achieve when we push ourselves beyond our comfort zones.
Mount Shasta is not only a mountain to conquer but also a place of profound beauty and inspiration. Its majestic presence serves as a reminder of the power of nature and our place within it. The experience of mountaineering on Mount Shasta is not just about reaching the summit—it is about connecting with the natural world, challenging ourselves, and discovering our own inner strength.
Whether you're an experienced mountaineer or someone seeking a transformative adventure, Mount Shasta offers an unforgettable journey. It is a testament to the rewards that come from pushing our limits and embracing the beauty of the world around us. If you're willing to embark on a challenging but immensely fulfilling experience, Mount Shasta is waiting to be conquered, offering stunning views and an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.

An inactive volcano, Mount Shasta is the fifth-highest mountain in the Golden State. 14,179 feet tall it dominates the landscape of this area of Northern California. I'm from North Carolina, which boasts the tallest mountain east of the Mississippi (Mount Mitchell, 6684 feet).
Allegedly, the volcano was last active in 1250 AD. No Yelp then to prove it one way or the other.
There is a fabulous vista point not far away on I-5. I'd love to catch it at sunrise but alas, I'm heading south this afternoon and can't stay to get closer to Mount Shasta. Instead, I'll just have to be satisfied with the great views of the mountain from the highway.

Very spiritual place to climb. I highly recommend that Read Julius Evola’s “Meditations on the Peaks: Mountain Climbing as Metaphor for the Spiritual Quest” before you visit. You know as Evola said
“Considering that today the mountain has been physically conquered and that there are few peaks that man has not yet reached, it is important to keep the conquest from being debased and from losing its higher meaning. Thus, it is necessary that the younger generations gradually come to appreciate action at the level of ritual and that they slowly succeed in finding again a transcendent reference point. It is through this reference point that the feats of audacity, risk, and conquest as well as the disciplines of the body, the senses, and the will that are practiced in the immovable, great, and symbolic mountain peaks, lead men to the realization that all in man is beyond himself. In this way these feats will be justified in the context of the spiritual revolutionary movement that is currently emerging among our people.”

Prakash Veer — Google review
The fifth tallest mountain in California and the second highest in the Cascades, second only to Ranier. But what really separates Mt Shasta from the rest of the mountains is literally its separation. The isolation, prominance, and grade make this a remarkable mountain that rises from the local 4,000-14,179.
Any angle you try to climb will be challenging, with slopes that are often 40-45 degrees, covered in scree and talus. But the views from the top of such an isolated mountain are worth it.

Summit back in July 2023. Weather was perfect! Ice axe and crampons are still needed. What a beautiful majestic mountain.
The volcanic plateaus of Upper and Lower Table Rock offer scenic trails adorned by seasonal flowers and pools, providing ample opportunities for sighting bobcats and lizards. While the hike to Upper Table Rock is shorter, it is a sight to behold during spring when wildflowers and trees bloom. The trail has several switchbacks that can be challenging at times. On the other hand, Lower Table Rock's plateau offers spectacular views but requires more effort due to its length and strenuousness.
Mind blowing views and surreal setting near Medford. Definitely worth a stop for the quick hike if you’re passing through the area. Can get a little more crowded on weekends, but once you’re at the top of the plateau there’s plenty of room to find your own way.

The hike up Upper Table Rock is not dangerous but the grade and switchbacks will burn your legs and lungs. The trail is shaded for much of the way, which is nice because it gets warm. Bring water. I enjoyed the plateau the most, for its view farmland and river, plus majestic Mount McLoughlin off in the distance.

Upper table rock is a shorter hike overall, but in the spring it is absolutely gorgeous as wildflowers and various tree's begin to bloom. It can be trying at times, as it does have a few switchbacks. Lower table rock is both longer and a tad more strenuous. However, the plateau of Lower Table Rock is vast with breathtaking views. You'll want water for both and prepare for a bit of burn (depending on your fitness level).

A beautiful day visiting at the Upper Table. It was a bit crowded on the trail but I don't think anyone minded...this is the easier of the two with regard to distance but the vista is equally satisfying. The terrain is a bit more rough in comparison to the Lower so hikers beware, especially on wet days. Both of these trails consistently remain on my favs list in the Rogue Valley.
Silver Falls State Park is Oregon's largest state park and offers a variety of outdoor activities including camping, swimming, picnicking, cycling, and horseback riding. The main attraction is the Trail of Ten Falls Loop which is an easy 8-mile loop that leads visitors through a basalt canyon filled with thick forests teeming with ferns, mosses and wildflowers. This serene park features ten waterfalls along the dog-friendly trail, as well as campsites and cabins for overnight stays.
Amazing,probably the most popular park n hiking trails in the states. Its tons of hiking trails with different lengths from easy to hard. Well maintain n managed. You could see lots of falls n great view.
You need state lark permit which could be bought online for a year or from kiosk in parking lots for $5 a day.
Even weekdays they are good amount of people all around the park

The best 9 miles I ever hiked. Covered all the trails. Bring good hiking shoes because it is quiet muddy, the trail is not at all difficult to do.
I love the north water fall and the south water fall.
The map is so confusing, it never tells you where you are. Better to download the hiking map to help you in forest because there is no service in that area. Park in the main parking lot.

Absolutely loved this hike. I've always wanted to go behind a waterfall. I think the lower south falls was my favorite, you're behind the fall and pretty close to the water too.
Ten waterfalls all in 1 hike! But give yourself a lot of time, I only managed to see 8/10 waterfalls. I think it took me about 3 hours I forget how long exactly.
And definitely go early, when I got back to the car around 12:30 there were a lot of cars waiting with no parking spaces available.
I went at the end of May and the waterfalls were still a wonderful sight to see, but I wonder if I went earlier in the year the water flow would be higher? Some of them didn't seem that big but I'm not sure if that's just how they normally are.
All in all, a great hike, not too hard in difficulty, but long in length, I love that it's a loop trail so you don't have to turn back around at the end.
Park is kept very clean, I think $5 fee to park there.

The trail from the South entrance was absolutely beautiful. The first two waterfalls are a must-see. Make sure to take water with you if you plan to hike the entire loop, or even half of it. Be careful for loose rock and wet slippery places. There are some steps, and the trail gets fairly steep in spots, both up and down.

I cannot describe what a wonderful experience I had here. My boyfriend and I were on a road trip to the coast and this was our first stop. We did the 10 Waterfalls hike and I was amazed during every second of it. The fact that we were able to walk behind so many of them just made me feel like I could really experience it. And all the moss everywhere was a dream. The trail is good with only 1 steep downhill and then steps to get back up or visa versa depending on how you hike it. The bathrooms were clean and even warm. They had many different kinds of buildings to explore, we didn't but you can easily spend a whole day there. 10/10 recommend to anyone who loves waterfalls.

On a Friday morning we decided to drive an hour from Portland and go for a “little” hike. We are non-hikers so the 2.8 mile loop was plenty of a hike for us. Easy, beautiful hike down to see the lower south falls but the switchbacks coming back up to the parking lot were brutal. We had to take several breaks. It felt good to complete the hike and we definitely would do it again though!

I planned to stop here just to see one waterfall and a short hike... 6 hours later, I didn't want to leave. It's truly stunning y'all. For those with mobility issues, it will be a challenge to get down to the waterfalls. The paths are fairly steep but well maintained. I've never been behind a waterfall and that was the coolest. They have an awesome shop and lodge too. Even cabins for rent! Can't wait to go back.

It was dope!

This place is a hikers dream. 10 falls in a 9 mile loop is simply heaven. I visited on 07-04-22. The terrain was shaded, cool, wet and extremely fun to hike. There was a slight elevation at some parts and some stairs throughout. There were a few bridges along the trail as well. Definitely wear water shoes for the hike and keep a spare pair in the car for later. Try wearing quick dry clothes.
Start by paying $5 parking fee at the kiosks.
Take snacks and water.
Take a hiking stick mostly for safety.
Be considerate of others while taking pics. Don't hog the trail and let other pass by safely.
Know your comfort level if you decide to get under the falls or in the water at all. Safety can't get to you fast enough once you are around double falls.
Keep your phone charged to capture the beautiful moments.
Take your time and enjoy to the fullest.

Didn't know what to expect. First time here. As busy as it gets for a Sunday, there was still parking available. With cool temperatures during the late afternoon, the lush nature and breathtaking waterfalls set the mood for the hike. The sound and streams of the waterfalls made it a very pleasant experience. The cafe and nature store in the park is a great visit. Felt the burn on the inclines, although challenging, it was manageable. There's bike trails and some paved paths. Great viewpoints and pathways. Will definitely return for the full loop.

I love this park as much as I love the Columbia River Gorge. You can see 10 waterfalls and some you can walk behind. Some are easy to spot from the parking areas but most waterfalls require a hike. There are stairs on the trail from South Falls to Lower South Falls so beware of that too!

We love this forest park. Very well maintain trails, easy to hike and easy to navigate. Beautiful waterfalls. Coming here in the fall is a must in order to see the fall foliage. Lots of good foraging spots if you’re into foraging. Come after a good rain and your guaranteed to find lots of mushrooms. (Bring a field guide!) Lots of parking in the parking lot. You will have to pay for a Oregon park permit or a day pass. (EV charging available). There’s also a nice bike only trail for you bikers. You’ll drive through a little farming town with fresh eggs for sell everywhere!

Our private tour with Allison was awesome - she was very knowledgeable about the vineyard practices and the wines even though she had only been on week 6 or so of working there! They had some wines we really loved - the Tualatin Estate Pinot noir was delightful - and others that were just okay (we were not huge fans of the whole cluster Pinot noir). They include a cheese plate with the tour which my husband enjoyed and they put together a vegan plate for me.
Overall we had a wonderful time and we really enjoyed Allison’s energy as well as the history she taught us about and the pours that kept flowing 😊

None of the photos uploaded are of the Willamette valley. This is not what it looks like none of these are accurate. Translated it means valley of sickness.
Nice place just not always nice people. You do not want to live anywhere that does not get sunlight at some point. Make sure you choose the right spot if you're going to live here.
If you have your own resources and you're good at staying to yourself this is The place for you.
Now if you want to live in a more populated area that's a whole different story.
Eugene and some surrounding areas are not too bad. Just stay away from Medford or Portland.
Be ready for any kind of weather at any point. Have a good day.

Born and raised in this place. It's rainy, and sunny, and sometimes all at once. But I don't wanna live anywhere else.

Lush farming Valley between the Coastal and Cascade Ranges in Oregon. Very close to the beach and the mountains.

Lived here my whole life, couldn’t think of a better place to grow up. The surrounding mountains, rivers, fields, and forests are beautiful.

Never been there, but I was fascinated about it, being shown and talked about it, on a painting show.
