We were visiting the area and found out that the Lake had this little water park as well as an…read moreobstacle course with zip lines right next door. Such a great find for an afternoon of fun. This place is absolutely geared for the younger kiddo's. My 8 and 11 year old enjoyed the kiddo area and the 2 different water slides (one slide has 2 tubes) - but that is the extent of the park. They do sell food - you can only bring water in with you (they do search your bags), and they have cabana's you can rent. We were very happy with the time we spent here. Bathrooms were clean Plenty of open chairs around d the pool deck! Service was fantastic! We did order a pizza and nachos at the food shack it was good quality for the price, which was pretty affordable! In all this was an unexpected delight at Lopez Lake on our trip to the central coast.

This is the second summer we've visited the water park and it will definitely become part of the…read moreagenda for our annual vacation. It's the perfect spot for a low-key afternoon where you can take advantage of the good weather and enjoy some playtime in the water. There's two waterslides accessible to anyone who meets the height requirement of 42". They are so fast and fun. You really can ride them over and over for hours at a time. There's one extreme waterslide (also 42" requirement) and then a really fun play area with small waterslides and water fountains. The food and drink are not overpriced. There's plenty of room for everyone to move around and I think what really makes this place shine is that all of the staff are friendly and helpful and do a really fantastic job. if you enjoy water rides, but don't like the craziness of large water parks then this place is absolutely for you.

Great time had by all at Santa Maria Con. I loved seeing all the cosplay people had designed and…read morestrutted in. This was their first time having it in this location and everyone said they liked it there so much better. They had more room for vendors , voice actors and actors and food trucks. Luckily it was a cool day so I could cool down in my pleather. Santa Maria Con gets two thumbs up in Z formation. They let military, and first responders in for free. Other cons need to step it up. At least give a discount.

We LOVE this fair! It's small enough to get around to see the whole thing…read more We especially love the quilt raffle! I won a quilt with the Nemo fish on it. We also enjoy the craft works and art. There is nothing like an $11 corn dog and an $18 funnel cake! We went on Wednesday and waited an hour to get in for a $1. Good times!

Staff were so kind!

The fair was on the smaller side so very manageable to walk with little kids (we're used to the San Diego fair), not sure if it was due to Covid, didn't see any animals, just camel ride and a zebra?!

The Santa Barbara county fair is about as far in distance from the infamous party college town as…read moreyou can get. That's a good thing because this is a bonafide agriculture fair filled with hard working Americans. You wont see many BMWs here, only old cars and working trucks parked along the streets and the parking lots. The fairgrounds are kinda scattered around so make sure you get a map, they don't hand them out, but you can ask for one when you hand over your ticket. Walking through the livestock barns you get a good sense of the farming culture of this area. Every livestock pen was full of 4-H members tending to their prized animals or just being social with other kids.This was where all the kids / teens were hanging out. Some even pulled up a table and started playing cards. Totally different scene from the San Diego fair where the livestock areas were always empty of people. Food - Several standard fair options but it seemed like many of the vendors had multiple stalls selling the same items. The most popular appeared to be elote and a brick of curly fries. Carnival rides are expensive, a good one will cost you 4.50 a ride. You'll need to spend $30+ to get an unlimited ride wristband to make it worth your while.. Tips - The first few days of the fair have a dollar day discount. Locals don't park in the paid parking, they park across the street in the
