On the East Village off of Main Street, we always drive by this steep hill and have always seen the sign for "Santa Rosa Chapel & Cemetery". So this year we decided to drive up the hill and check it out! A great find to learn more about this town's history! The little chapel can be used for weddings! It was built back in 1870 and had been there since! An old cemetery is also located atop the hill behind the chapel. We took a stroll to check it out and was able to see a few familiar family names. And finally figured that Fiscalini Ranch Preserve was named after the Fiscalini family! I always wondered where that name came from!

My husband and I have been visiting Cambria once or twice a year for nearly 30 years. Not once…read morehave we been able to visit this Museum because, every time we go there, we are greeted with a sign on the closed door saying they are closed for one reason or another. We were in Cambria in April of 2021. I complained about this fact to my friend Diane who is a resident. She told me that the staffing problem had been resolved. I think she said they were replacing the wealthy volunteers who always had more important things to do with actual employees who would want to work in order to get paid. Yeah, right. In preparation for this visit, I went on-line and found that their hours are "Friday through Sunday 1-4 PM and Monday 10 AM - 1PM." So my husband and I drove into town and parked nearby. When he got to the closed front door, it said that they had closed in January due to COVID. (Two years in.) I get a lot of emails from the Cambria Historical Museum. They seem to open when a Local has a book signing or other event. But, boy oh boy, they are 'never' open to the public. Maybe if they'd open their danged doors consistently during posted hours, they'd earn enough money to keep their doors open. Maybe it's a Catch-22. I don't know but I do know that "they" (whoever is in charge) really should be ashamed at themselves for not making this Museum available to the public. Lest you suspect that I'm exaggerating, please notice that there are only two reviews. That is because the Museum IS NEVER OPEN!

If you're strolling around downtown Cambria, this is a fun little stopover. It's a pretty…read morehistorical structure, a fun little piece of history and yet another reason this downtown is so beautiful. We were first attracted to the expansive grounds where families were sitting on benches and enjoying a sprawling, well-maintained garden. I always love when a museum doubles as an open to all place to stroll and enjoy without some fee required. You'll find a plaque that gives you some history. turns out this was the Guthrie-Bianchini house, built way back in 1870, occupied many times over and then saved through the efforts of the locals. The structure itself is quite nice and matches the aesthetic of the other occupied houses and businesses around it. It's not much, but it is just another thing people might take for granted when exploring. Consider sitting on the museum grounds and having lunch while in the area.

You check in at the main office downtown, then hop on a tour bus to the ranch property. Our driver was super informative and entertaining along the way. The drive itself felt like part of the experience with bumpy ranch roads, multiple gates, gorgeous scenery, and a real behind the scenes feel of the property. Once you arrive, the staff gets you geared up with all the safety equipment and everyone was incredibly friendly, professional, and great with all ages. After gearing up, you take an old Army style jeep up the mountain and that ride alone was an adventure Super rickety, steep, and fun! We felt very safe the entire time because before every single zip line, the staff carefully checked everyone's safety gear and connections. There are 6 zip lines total and each one is different with spectacular views that change throughout the course. One thing to know is that you should be in reasonably good shape because there are mini hikes between some of the zip lines. There are lots of water stations along the course, which was great, but the experience is definitely active and you do not want to hold up the group. Totally worth it though and such a memorable Central Coast adventure for families, couples, teens, and adventurous kids!

It's a small, quaint town surrounded by nature, the ocean and the majestic pines. It's perfect for at least 1 night getaway (there are nice hotels in the area). The main street makes it for a perfect stroll with local shops full of color and personality (the fudge shop should be a must), lots of cute galleries and local artists. Very laid back, California style. Wear layers, it gets chilly in the morning and at night. Hearst Castle is near by, Moonstone Beach, so it could be a good base. Seems so remote from the hustle of LA and so relaxing. You can do hikes, day trips, or just stroll, shop and lounge at your hotel pool. Always a great idea to visit Cambria!
