Visited April 5 2026. See my receipt as always…read more I belong to the wine club and love coming here to pick up my wine and a combo pizza. The crust is amazing! Because they do not allow dogs inside or outside in their patio area I had to wait with my car running and my air on high because I had my puppy with me. The owners are very nice and I understand about their pet policy. It would have been nice to have a glass of wine and a slice of pizza inside! It's still a very nice environment with trivia on Thursdays and all kinds of drinks ( try the ice cold slushies! ). Pizza is always amazing! I will try to leave my puppy with my friend next time I visit!

Then I tried one of their reds not great, so I'll move on to the pizza which had a pretty good crust going for it, flavorful however there was not much meat/additions on it (sparse). Tempting to give it three stars as the owner also seemed a bit offended when I asked about things (were they made from scratch, did they have much sodium, etc.) Since it's clean and new I'll go with the four for now and try them again.

I've passed this National Wildlife sign off the I-5 so many times and when I finally got to visit,…read morethe sheer size and uniqueness of this refuge far exceeded my expectations. Driving along the I-5 before, I've always wondered how deep the farms went. Well this refuge must've been hundreds of acres. I had no idea there was both a walking path and a driving tour. We opted for the self-driving tour. Starting out, it was kind of dry in May and I thought it was going to be those lame small areas to explore that takes like 20-30 mins. I didn't see anything but dry fields for a good while, but the deeper in we went, all of a sudden random ecosystems popped up left and right, lush greenery, and wildlife starting showing up. The gravel road took us on turns and it kept going on and on forever! The refuge was so huge it took me over an hour to get thru the whole thing. The driving tour takes you deeeeep into the refuge. It was nice you could stop at the pull-off areas to stretch your legs. There was even a viewing deck with built-in binoculars overlooking the creek and plains. We saw so many variety of birds, some rabbits and even spotted a deer. The whole experience was so amazing that I made a mental note to come back next spring and also take visiting family or friends.

I came across this park while staying overnight in Willows and looking for something to do. What an…read moreamazing place! There were so many different types of birds (we saw thousands) and I even spotted a bald eagle. I appreciated that dogs are allowed and the park is open until an hour past sunset. Purchasing tickets is so easy too. I'll be sure to come back with my SLR camera next time I'm in the area.

Oroville's Most Famous Couple- Jesse and Cornelia…read more Charles Lott was a lawyer who came to Oroville from Quincy, Illinois, in the mid 1800s. He came west with the Quincy Party in hopes of finding gold. However, he soon discovered that gold mining was heavy, dirty work. He decided that practicing law, settling claim disputes and other matters, was more lucrative than trying to "strike it rich." Charles became a pillar in the community. He ended up becoming a very successful lawyer and eventually became a judge. He went on to become Senator of California in 1851. Eventually, he bought the parcel of land on the main thoroughfare and began building a home there. Meanwhile, he returned to his family home and met Susan Heyer of Pennsylvania. They were married and came to Oroville just as the house was being finished. The Lott's had three children, Charles Fayette, also called Faye, Cornelia Deare, and Sarah Virginia. Sarah died of unknown causes just before turning three. The two surviving Lott children had obvious undesirable traits. Faye was evidently not the most intelligent man. He apparently shunned work but loved to gamble and go to the bars downtown. He would get all dressed up and spend his time in these venues. Cornelia walked with a limp and had some sort of facial tic, apparently as a result of her mother falling down the stairs during pregnancy. For these reasons, Charles felt the only reason anyone would want to marry his children would be for their money. So, he forbade them to marry. However, Cornelia fell in love with Jesse Sank sometime before 1918. Even though her father would not allow them to marry, they maintained a relationship. Susan mother died when Cornelia was 26 years old. Charles hired a seamstress he had met during his travels and she took over the running of the household. She sent Cornelia to finishing school in San Francisco and made it extremely difficult for her to visit home during holidays and vacations. Charles died in 1918, and Faye followed in his father's footsteps in forbidding Cornelia to marry. It was not until Faye died in 1927 that Cornelia and Jesse were finally able to get married. They bought a 1922 Buick and traveled to various places, a rarity of the times. They frequently went on picnics and were very community minded. Jesse spent time working on the house and garden. Much of it was built especially for Cornelia. Jesse installed the fireplace, which included a very special message. He also built modern bathroom for her. After Cornelia died, Jesse continued to carry out tasks that had she had expressed as being her wishes. When he died, his will stated as she willed- that the home and garden be donated to the city as a museum. The couple never had children, so even though the home is over 150 years old only two generations lived there. Some of the furnishings on display are original to the house. Some are not original but are of the times and were donated. The lamp fixtures in the Music Room are original to the house. The table and chairs in the dining room were bought from the old Hearst Summer House near Palermo. Among the artifacts is a drawing of a horse done by Cornelia. Various artifacts are rotated for viewing approximately every three months. Some of these treasures are Battenberg Lace, antique toys, and even a framed piece made of human hair. The Buick is still at the house as well, stored in a carriage house that was built sometime after the original construction of the house. Go back in time by visiting the Lott Home in Sank Park. See how the Lott's and Sank's lived and find out more about the amazing life of the family.

This is a restored home that was built in the mid-1800's by one of the original gold-rush settlers,…read moreand occupied by his family until the mid-1950's. It is a two-story building, sitting on about two acres near downtown Oroville. The outside, which you are free to wander, is well maintained and surrounded by some garden plots and a few outbuildings, one of which houses a restored Buick from 1922 that you can view through a glass separation. The inside, which you can tour for a small fee, has been completely restored and has many pieces of period furniture, household objects, and clothing that help show what the home might have looked like when occupied. And the docent I met was very knowledgeable about the house and the town, so she added a lot to the self-guided tour. It only takes about half an hour for the tour, but if you enjoy restored old homes, it is worth the short visit.
