Wine tasting: We’re in the heart of wine country in Monterey County. Many acclaimed wineries are within 20–60 minutes from us. Paso Robles wine country is about 1.5 hours away. Visit montereywines.org and pasowine.com for a comprehensive guide to both regions.

Stargazing: The Inn sits in a rare “dark sky” setting far from city lights — the Milky Way is visible on clear nights with stunning clarity, definitely not what you see back home.
Birdwatching: The Gabilan Mountains and the park’s 149 recorded bird species make this exceptional for birders. Odds are good you will spot a condor or two.
Photography: Dramatic rock formations, golden vineyards, wildflowers, and spectacular sunsets over the Santa Lucia Mountains offer endless photo opportunities.
