Absolutely beautiful. You could spend a lifetime exploring this park. It is huge with many day use and overnight camping areas. Be prepared to drive, as all the sites are bit far apart. Bring plenty of water and snacks, there are none in the park and it IS a desert. Restrooms are at day use areas. Snakes are common in hotter months so exercise caution when climbing among the rocks. That being said there are lots of rock climbing routes, great for both bouldering and line climbers. The day use areas are the most family-friendly, with lots of non-strenuous hikes. Because of this, these areas are the most populated. If you're looking for less people, you can just pull over anywhere and start exploring. If you camp overnight, I suggest camping off the ground (just my own opinion) because scorpions come out at night. 😬 A word of caution: flash flooding is extremely common and it's best to leave at any sign of weather.

The best I.S. National Park for me, I’m a teen and I love climbing on rock piles! The rocks are so beautifully shaped and positioned in valleys and on hills, I saw giant rabbits with very long pink ears and lots of interesting desert plants. There are so many trails and they all seem different. It’s also very close to the town that has a yummy organic/vegan food place that is pretty crowded when L.A. people are on their weekend trips.

Best place to visit for those who love desert adventure. A huge park with beautiful roads & no shelters, no shades, no greenery. Lots of sand Trails. One can see are rocks of all shapes & sizes, cactus & desert trees only. Totally dry area, absolutely no water. Not a place to visit on a hot day and definitely not in Summer. Lovers of Rocks must & should dash to this place.

Had a great two day visit here. Lots to see. Easy access and great day hikes. If you’re here to climb you have already heard how good it is. Be careful on the dirt roads as there are stupid people driving trucks at out of control speeds.

This is a gorgeous National Park. I've visited a couple of times over the years and always have a good time. Beautiful scenery and great to get out in nature. Nice place to stop by if you are visiting the Palm Springs area.

Do not miss out on visiting this incredible Park! The landscape, fauna and flora are just extraordinary. The giant boulders are huge and beautiful - to climb over, under and aside is amazing. To stay at one of the campgrounds will be one of the best experiences. Drive, walk, cycle, run, but just make sure to spend time here! No cell phone service in the park but it just isn't necessary.

Unique landscapes, easy hikes, weird trees. I would say that most of the things can be seen within one day, but probably more pleasant to stay for a night in a town nearby and then devote two days. Most of the hikes are very clearly marked and don’t need special footwear. Pack layers as it gets cold fast in the winter.

Joshua tree National park is one of the best parks I’ve been to. I love that you can cover the most of the must see places in a day and at night you can stay at the arch rock to look at the starts. The park has plenty restrooms At multiple locations. It has 4 visitor centers on each direction. Roads are well maintained. Overall great place for getaway.

The resources and hiking opportunities at this Park are fabulous. The visitor center we went to was a little chaotic due to the number of people inside, and the campground was pretty worn down from all the visitation it gets. Stay away from the people-places and this Park is top-notch for desert-lovers!

I am in love with this place!! Great scenery, make sure to plan out any trails you are planning to explore in advance and that is according to your level. Take a lot of water, sunscreen and good shoes if you are planning on walking. And… please for the love of good take a camera with you. This place is worth so much more time to explore. These formations are amazing and if you have the chance to climb any please do so.

Very interesting experience! There are exhibits and areas to get out of the car all over the place. Very cool to see the Joshua Trees and nature. 10/10, recommend driving through if you’re in the area!

Great park to ride a motorcycle through, the roads in the surrounding area are also great. Do try to go early as possible to avoid all the cars. You can also camp here and see an amazing view of stars. Joshua tree is a designated dark sky site.

Hands down my favorite national Park to go to although it might be the only national Park I've ever been to. I didn't think I liked the desert until I was able to visit this park and it is beautiful beyond compare. I wondered how all of these little clumps of rocks ended up here. Easy to drive through without getting lost and I hope to return one day to camp just for one night.

Highly recommend Joshua tree park. Amazing day or night. Interesting ecology and lots of various sites to check out. Great spot for long exposure nighttime photography! Check out the visitor center in town before heading out there.

Absolutely stunning and otherworldly! Be sure to bring plenty of provisions! Extra water and snacks will be very helpful as you travel through the park. I saw a couple of people collecting vegetation so please be aware that this is strictly prohibited! Please preserve our national parks!

Joshua Tree National Park is a true desert wonderland, offering an unforgettable experience for nature enthusiasts and adventurers alike. The park's unique landscape, characterized by its iconic Joshua trees, massive rock formations, and clear night skies, creates a sense of awe and inspiration. I had the privilege of exploring various trails, each leading to its own breathtaking vistas and hidden treasures. Whether you're into hiking, rock climbing, stargazing, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the desert, Joshua Tree National Park has it all. One of the highlights of my visit was the opportunity to witness the remarkable sunrise and sunset views. The play of colors across the desert landscape is a sight to behold, and I found myself captivated by the ever-changing beauty of this place. It's worth noting that while the park offers an incredible experience, it can get quite hot during the day, so it's advisable to plan your outdoor activities accordingly and bring plenty of water. Also, be prepared for fluctuating temperatures, as desert nights can be surprisingly chilly. Despite the harsh environment, the park is well-maintained, with informative visitor centers and well-marked trails. The rangers are knowledgeable and helpful, ensuring that visitors have a safe and enjoyable experience. In summary, Joshua Tree National Park is a must-visit destination for anyone who appreciates the natural wonders of the desert. It's a place of solitude, adventure, and unparalleled beauty. Whether you're an avid hiker, a rock climber, or a casual observer of the wonders of the natural world, this park has something for everyone. It's a true jewel of the American Southwest and a testament to the remarkable diversity of our national parks.

Joshua Tree National Park is a mesmerizing destination that defies expectations and captivates the senses! As a seasoned traveler, I've explored many landscapes, but none compare to the unique allure of this national park. The endemic Joshua trees stand as sentinels, casting an otherworldly charm over the vast desert landscape. The alien rock formations add to the park's mystique, inviting exploration and contemplation. However, it's during the magical hours of sunrise and sunset that Joshua Tree truly shines, painting the sky with breathtaking hues and casting long, dramatic shadows across the desert floor. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, photographer, or simply seeking adventure, Joshua Tree National Park promises an unforgettable experience unlike any other in the United States.

One of my actual favorite places to visit! It has so many wonderful things to see, other-worldly rock formations to hike through, vast desert views, the cutest little local shops, and of course Joshua Trees! Always a pleasure.

Very different national park. It has marvelous rocks which kids enjoy climbing. At night we had star gazing which was so serene. The cactus was huge and shining at night. The trails are muddy but good to walk. Only thing I found a problem here is very few restrooms and water facilities. Carry lots of water and food as nothing is available inside park.

I have been visiting Joshua Tree National Park for many years. I am a professional Photographer and this is my favorite place to take pictures. The natural beauty of this amazing place is breathtaking. I feel so at peace when I am here. We love to go hiking on the numerous hiking trails. We also just enjoy driving through the park. Be prepared when you come with extra water and food. Make sure you have plenty of gas before you enter the park. The nearest gas station is about 5 miles from the entrance on the East side of the park. The gas prices there were very expensive, about 50% higher than other gas stations. There is no cell service inside the park, unless you have a satellite phone. The best time of the year to visit is February through May. The weather is usually really good during these months. We will continue to visit Joshua Tree National Park again soon. I love all of the memories we have made together as a family

Beautiful park! There is a little bit for everyone. There are dirt roads for some backroad trips, bouldering, rock climbing, hiking, or just chilling. You can just drive through and enjoy the scenery or spend days there.

I really enjoyed taking my family to Joshua Tree. This place was absolutely awesome. There is a lot to see because this national park is so big. I would highly recommend going to Skull Rock and take time to explore especially with kids. My kids loved running around, climbing rocks, and just taking in the views. Very memorable trip for the whole family.

What’s not to love?!? An incredible experience in a stunning environment. Some of the most enjoyable hiking we’ve experienced anywhere! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Wow, this park is like something from outer space. We enjoyed every minute that we visited. Hiking was gorgeous and not too crowded. It was early March, so not crazy crowded. Would definitely recommend, even for elderly or handicapped as you can see a lot of the main things by driving through if you just want a feel for the park. I’m not sure how summer would be though!

This park is def worth the hype! Great accessibility with a variation of difficultly in activities and hikes! It’s close to the town of Joshua tree which has accommodations like lodging, food, gas, activities, visitor center, and must see places! Navigating the park is easy, park rangers are knowledgeable, and the volunteers that we encountered on the trails and asked questions were also very knowledgeable! This park is very popular and can get extremely busy to the point that park rangers will turn people away to prevent congestion when there is no parking at a location. Get there early to avoid this and to avoid the unbearable heat and sun.

I LOVE this arboretum! What a wonderful experience. And the little cafe is a great place to get a snack and a cup of coffee and watch the peacocks in the trees. Lots of great gardens to walk through and take in all the sights and smells. Parking was easy. The coffee and lemon cake were delicious. If I lived closer I would consider getting a membership. I highly recommend this fantastic place.

My mother and I visited this botanical garden while we were staying in Arcadia. It was one of the best botanical gardens I have been to. The grounds were gorgeous and there were peacocks running around all over the place! We spent about two hours walking around and it was so nice and relaxing. If you enjoy outdoor activities, and are in the Arcadia area, definitely check out the Los Angeles County Arboretum!

Such an amazing place for a walk with family or the loved one. Every inches of the garden is a beauty. It took us almost an hour to drive from home but it was nothing after we entered the garden. Loves the Peacocks "the guardian of the doors", LOL. Tips: - wear comfortable shoes - buy tickets online!!

Been here twice, both visits were awesome. The house here is from a TV showed called Fantasy Island. The flora and fauna are not to be missed. The grounds are immense so wear comfortable shoes. The peacocks and peahens are plentiful. There is lots to look at and explore. Enjoy!

Beautiful park crawling with wildlife and captivating natural views. I love the waterfalls and rose garden the most. It’s spring so the animals are very active at this time and love to get close up to you. Be prepared for a lot of walking and heat but it is a perfect outing for the entire family!

It’s been a few years since I’ve been back and they have a couple of changes. For starters, the entrance is being remodeled so you now enter in the middle of the parking lot area. There are also some green houses that I do not remember seeing 4 or 5 years ago. It’s pretty nice. I bought tickets a month in advance and picked a later time in the day. I am glad because the weather ended up being pretty hot! Going at 4pm was still sweat-inducing and there isn’t much shade. What hasn’t changed are all the peacocks that roam around, needing to watch the ground so you don’t step on poo, and the water fall is still one of the main attractions! There is a nice view at the top of the waterfall of the tree tops and mountains. Queen Anne’s cottage is being renovated right now but we did see a cute turtle roaming around on the grass freely. Didn’t get to take the tram this time but the grounds are very expansive. Be prepared to walk a lot! Bring water! It’s fun to explore though.

Perfect arboretum to study different plant families and native trees! It's a walk, so we dressed comfortably. There are two parking lots, so there is plenty of space. The peacocks are so sweet, and the cafe had great lunch options. Hopefully, the gift shop will open up soon for our next visit!

The LA County Arboretum is such a nice place to visit anytime of the year. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and the Arboretum is always immaculate while maintaining its natural beauty. I love going and just meandering through the different areas amongst the peacocks, Canada Geese and other critters. Besides the amazing collection of flora, there ponds, waterfalls, sculptures and historical buildings & more to enjoy. It is definitely someplace that distracts me into a calm and content state. (At this time- The Arboretum participates in the Museums for All program and waives the typical cost of admission for anyone with proof of EBT benefits and photo ID and 1 guest)

A beautiful, fairly expansive and well-maintained park that also has Peacocks walkin around!! It is a great place to spend a couple of hours. I bought tickets online about 1 hour before going on a weekend. The citrus and rose gardens are absolutely gorgeous in early spring (do not pick, just admire!). Nothing very strenuous for the elderly or kiddos--all pretty flat and concrete paths.

Lovely, but not too many colorful gardens too see. I was expecting to see lots of different colored flowers. There are lots of trees of all kinds, cactuses, maguey, etc. Speaking of animals, we only saw ducks and peacocks. $15 admission fee per adult (must be purchased online) * we got to see a peacock pecking the front cars' tire, at the EXIT

We had our wedding here on 7/9/23 and we couldn't have asked for a better experience and a more beautiful venue. We had our ceremony in the gazebo on the Event Lawn, and the reception at the Peacock Cafe. We were able to take beautiful photos all around the arboretum. Carlos and Nicole who run the on-site Peacock Cafe also take care of weddings, and they were AMAZING! Carlos helped us set up all the logistics and made sure everything we wanted was able to happen. Nicole made us a completely vegan menu (dumpling-based buffet( that was DELICIOUS! She was lovely to work with and we couldn't believe this was her 2nd-ever vegan wedding. Everyone raved about the food! Altogether we were so happy with our experience here. Carlos and Nicole are incredibly kind and are excellent at their jobs. They also helped us secure a wonderful DJ and helped us plan a beautiful wedding while staying in budget. The whole staff at the Arboretum made the night go amazingly smoothly. I couldn't recommend them enough!

Lovely gardens to wander around during the daytime. Plenty of things to see. Parking is free and can get kind of packed so getting here earlier is better. You can buy tickets online or at the door. The arboretum often hosts events like wedding pictures so you might come across a neatly dressed group. There are some nice themed gardens to walk through, and there is a variety of wildlife such as turtles, peacocks, and ducks to enjoy. It’s a big park and worth coming back again. If you’re grabbing a snack or a drink nearby this is the perfect afternoon detour. Definitely recommend!

Haven’t been here for a while. Redid the entrance area, looks nice. Came with friend to see the bonsai winter show. Amazing details in this art. It really is an act

Less expensive than the Huntington Gardens and so worthwhile! Fantastic wildlife, vista views, and beautifully landscaped lawns. The garden/lawn with native flora was stunning with all the blooming poppies. The parking was full when we arrived, but we found parking down a side street, accompanied by plenty of peacocks showing off. We did not buy tickets in advance, although you can if you like. Thank you, LA Arboretum - can’t wait to visit again!

My happy place. A large arboretum with a variety of plants from all over the world. Wonderful birds, including waterfowl, parrots, hummingbirds, and various migratory species. If you live nearby, the annual membership is a bargain and you can visit during extended hours.

Ummmm first time to this event and I don't feel the need to go again. The lights are okay the food area was yummy pricey but good food. It wasn't a smooth trail a lot of traffic just standing there waiting as people held up the line taking pics. One of the sides had technical issues the music turned off, I just had high expectations and was looking forward to this but I could of passed

We had a lovely 2 hour walk through the whole arboretum, taking our time. It has different sections with different types of plants, a coach barn, a beautiful home, and even an old train station (we unfortunately were too late for the museum). Very calm place. Saw plenty of peacocks, and they even hung out in the parking lot and the nearby neighborhoods. We bought our tickets online morning of but I'm not sure we even needed too. On a nice day, parking is a bit iffy. We had to drive around the lot a couple times and wait for someone to leave to get a spot.

Went to the Lightscape Reimagined 2023. First time seeing this type of special event. Had friends visiting from Toronto. Went to dinner across the street at the mall. A bit crowded. Use the shuttle to park at the mall side. Nice walk through lit displays of lights and music. Really enjoyed the slow walk.

A wonderful way to spend an afternoon. There was no wait to get in 11am on a Saturday. Expect to do a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes, a hat, sunglasses, and bring water. So many places to sit in solitude and enjoy the scenery. We went during the Ikebana exhibit which displayed stunning Japanese floral sculptures. Don’t miss the Tropical Greenhouse or the Garden of Quiet Reflection.

It’s always a pleasure to be at the Arboretum. This is my first time back after the remodel. Didn’t get much pictures this time but I’ll be back soon 🌼 some of these pictures are from prior visits I made to the garden 🪴

If you’re into the outdoors or care about your mental health, you’ll appreciate the Los Angeles County Arboretum! There is much to see within the garden, including multiple paths, trails, bodies of water, water fountains, a waterfall, a greenhouse, an array of beautiful plants (tropical, native, and others), plenty of benches, old (historic) structures, wide open grassy areas (for children to run!), a cafe, three parking lots, and more! I know you’ll enjoy it!

Lightscape show was beautiful and fun to watch, took us about an hour and half to walk the whole light trail. Music was great and we had an amazing time, highly recommend bringing the whole family for the experience.

Beautiful lush forest like setting $15 entrance parking free there is small lake a waterfall and winding wooded path lush green pathways gardens birds and peacock 🦚 roaming the whole area peacocks are big attraction there nice little caffe excellent 2 to 4 miles hike amazing place must visit in spring San Gabriel mountains in the backdrop make it a great picnic spot to bring family kids friendly ducks 🦆 sone old barns and historic home on the property takes back in time love it 🙏

If you like horse racing even a little bit. This is the place, lots of events, especially fun events in the infield. We like to come up to the restaurant and watch the races from there at Silks. The people are great and the place. Is beautiful and an amazing place to watch. Horse races, 🐎 🐴 🎠 🏇 🐎 eat food and drink with friends and family.

So nice to be able to go back post-covid and enjoy this great historic horse racing park. I miss the donuts at Clockers Corner, but I love the early AM, crusty old guys, pre-computer era clientele that embrace the beautiful patio at Clockers corner, mentally processing the days racing lineup with a paper program of the day. Sadly, I'm sure some patrons succumbed to the COVID pandemic, remember them in your thoughts and prayers when you come to the races. This property should be guarded with one's life, I'm sure land developers lick their chops over their visions. Great that it is in the Registry of Historic Places certification, so that it's presence will remain on Southern California soil permanently. Amen.

I love horse racing and this was my first visit to a racetrack Stateside. It was magnificent. So authentic and original but with great screens graphics. Table service was excellent and the backdrop just amazing. We were in Silks. It was an incredible experience. For any racegoers just go and enjoy 😀

I had a really fun time here. It was my first time and I will be back. The fair was going on the horse raved the 5k run. Didn't get much pictures

State Fair ENT. LA. Admission + Parking + service fee is $27.50. No advance ticket needed. No cash used in the fair. I got there on Friday. Not many people than I expect. Really good place for family and couples. Didn’t see long lines for waiting. Very safe place for fun. Parking is easy. Tripod allowed. Recommend to go

The building is quite old and full of history. I went on Saturday, and there were not many people. The interval between each horse race was too long, usually at least half an hour, and the longest was more than 1 hour and 10 minutes, and each horse race was only 1 minute. It was too long to wait. I was there for 6 hours and only saw 7 races. It's fun to bet on. Quite excited.

Went for the celebration of life For Jerry Antonucci we had a private reserved and catered event. It was very nice and they dedicated a race to him and brought out the immediate family with the winning horse and jockey and took pictures and filmed it for us.

First time here and I was blown away by the retro ambiance. This venue took me to the races in the Wayback Machine. Can't wait to see it come alive for the Breeders Cup!

A vibrant place to be on a weekend with friends or family. Large racetrack and facilities with meaningful history. It’s just lovely to watch a horse race out here against the beautiful backdrop (and of course place bets if that’s your cup of tea). There were some food vendors but less than I was expecting. Plenty of seating/space both indoors and out. Some lingering cigarette smoke near the track so go further out for some fresh air. Lots of parking so just follow the signs. Loved all the little details like the trimmed trees and neatly arranged courtyards. Staff was friendly and helpful. There’s a place to greet the horses too. Tickets are $10 for nonmembers going in to the club house, past the security check. Would recommend you check it out if you’re in the area!

I always have fun times at Santa Anita Park. It’s a great place to take friends, family, & out of town guest. There are some changes they made post covid. Food ordering is from a QR code & they bring the food to your table in bags. The staff is really helpful in telling you where things are. Bring cash if you want to bet on horses. Since my party got Silks seating the race program was free. Look over the race program before you bet because my party didn’t see the professional picks until we were about to leave. “Silks” is outdoors, but if you prefer indoor seating then checkout “Frontrunner” restaurant. If your debating between regular admission or getting a table, the tables are worth the $20. I’m not sure if it’s because post covid or because it was a rainy day, but the race track was not packed at all. I know years ago the race track would bring people from all over, but it looks like attendance is dwindling. Hopefully more people come out & support Santa Anita Race track. I have made wonderful memories with family & friends here. Hope to visit again soon. Parking is free.

I truthfully came for the annual National Corgi Races - and based on that event (laugh, I know it’s funny) I give 3/5 stars. For the history it holds in the sport of Horse Racing, (ex equestrian here) you’d think it would be a bit nicer of a track. I likely won’t be back but it wasn’t the worst venue ever.

I went to the track on Derby day and there wasn’t much of a line to get in, but there were a lot of people at the track. The day was fun and the track was beautiful with the hillside course used for one race. Beautiful track.

This was my first time there and I enjoyed the show. We had 4 adults and two 14 year olds in our party and they all liked the show as well. Good acting and physical entertainment. Everybody was friendly and the actors worked very hard to make sure we watched a good show. Very, very, kid friendly.

If you’re visiting the Buena Vista area in Cali, the Pirates Dinner Adventure is a must. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was, especially the mashed potatoes. The adventure portion of the evening was very entertaining, lively and interactive. Movement all around and above. We had a blast and will revisit ❤️

A little pricy but a good time had by all! We had a group from 5 yearys old to 50 and all of us enjoyed the show. All the staff were friendly and polite. We will be back one day.

Great opportunity to have fun with the kids or just go enjoy it yourself. The story was fun to watch and extremely entertaining! The service was great and the food was pretty good as well. I enjoyed sitting there and watching the acrobatics and sword play while the story plot was very easy to follow. I will definitely be back

This is a must do experience for grown ups and kids! We had a blast! Things to expect This is a very interactive experience! My whole party was asked to participate. My daughter held the flag, I walked with a treasure, and my husband was asked to raise a flag. The pirates also come out before the show and interact with the guests. The whole experience felt very personal and special. There is literally no place to hang your purse. Mine had to go on the ground so I would suggest not bringing a purse if you don't want anyone stepping on it. The food was beyond gross. We had the chicken and it was okay. The mashed potatoes were just yuck. I didn't even try the vegetables. The drinks are bottomless and make sure you carry cash to tip your server. Seating We sat in the orange section. The view was great. I would say the worst sections are blue and green. Groupon had a great discount. I would order tickets thru them and save some money. We had such a great time. I would definitely go back and do it all over again!

We came for my son’s birthday and my whole family had a great time. The show was awesome, the crowd involvement is so much fun and the food is good. My major complaint is that the food portion for kids is way too small. I have three boys and all of them were still hungry after the meal. The main item of the kids meal is a slider the size of the palm of your hand. Unless the child is 6 or under there is no way it’s enough food for them.

Show was fun, but yesterday when we were there it took over an hour to get our drinks, food came first. I paid extra for the Caribbean beef, it was tiny, cold and tough. I needed to be able to wash it down but had no drink. When our soda finally arrived it was flat with no carbonation. We asked for water and she never came back. Made a fun experience awful.

We attended on Dec. 23rd and they had a Christmas show on with Santa, Mrs. Claus and a fairy. There was no disclaimer when we bought the tickets. As cute as it was to see an acrobatic fairy for 15 minutes we were there see PIRATES sword fighting each other with water blasting and a fire 🔥 show. That's what we were expecting and feel we were robbed from that. The Santa show got pretty boring quick. 😴 not impressed at all with the "show". Food was delicious and tasty. Server was nice and friendly but was MIA a lot. I had to ask other servers to send my server over 3 different times. 🙃 very disappointed with this pirate show. ☠️

Super fun event. Food was really good. Had the pork plate and it was very well done. Liquor prices are not bad. Drinks are very good. Staff was fun and attentive. They really focus on your kids so they have a good time. Show is fun to watch. Well worth the money

It was my Boyfriends and I first time going. We had so much fun . I took him for his birthday it was a Surprise he didn't know where we were going until I drove up. we were the first ones in line. So when I got to the window I asked the lady if i could upgrade out tickets to the treasure package. She said let me check with my supervisor and I mentioned that with my boyfriend's M Birthday so supervisor came in they were talking and then 10 minutes later she handed me our tickets she said here you go. It Was supposed to be 70 80 bucks to upgrade I was ready to give her my credit card shw said no it's fine .so the supervisor upgraded us for free. I thanked her and told her I really appreciate it. She waved us to go on and smiled. Now that is great customer service. Drinks were good prices.the atmosphere was fun had a great times. even though we were buzzed. We got to be on the purple side which is my favorite color. Wewould go again.

I recently had the pleasure of attending the Pirates Show in Buena Park and I must say it was an absolute blast! This show is truly a fantastic way to spend an entertaining evening with family and friends. From the moment we stepped foot into the venue, we were transported into a world of swashbuckling adventure and excitement. The show itself was incredibly fun and amusing. The talented performers truly brought the pirate theme to life with their energetic and captivating performances. The acrobatics, stunts, and sword fights had us on the edge of our seats throughout the entire show. It was a truly immersive experience that left us in awe. Not only was the show a hit, but the food offered during the performance was delicious. We had the opportunity to enjoy a scrumptious meal while being entertained. The menu offered a variety of options, catering to different dietary preferences, and everything was prepared with great care. The flavors were incredible, and the presentation was top-notch. Furthermore, the service provided was outstanding. The staff was attentive, friendly, and quick to assist with any needs or inquiries we had. They ensured that our dining experience was comfortable and enjoyable, providing a seamless evening of entertainment and relaxation. Overall, the Pirates Show in Buena Park is a must-visit for families looking to have a night of fun and adventure. The combination of the spectacular live show, delicious food, and excellent service make it a memorable experience for all. I highly recommend adding this show to your list of family-friendly activities in Buena Park; it is an absolute treasure!

Best evening entertainment I could ever anticipate. I purchase my ticket online and got the onion rings also turkey leg with mash potatoes and mixed vegetables. Be cautious, it’s real big and juicy I couldn’t even finish it all. But the free chocolate dessert was not bad at all, I enjoyed cheering on my green pirate winning over the mermaid’s favor!

5⭐ for the performers/show! Drop to 3 because of food. Our first time. Try Groupon or another discount first! No one said anything about paid parking (when made reservations or called to ask a Q).Didn't see it mentioned on tickets either. $8 to park in their lot!!! So didn't bother buying a pre-drink as intended, out of principle. $8 is nuts on top of tickets. We did get a drink for our Goddaughter, it was her bday. And the bartender gave for free for her bday. So THAT was great! 5⭐ bartender! Gift shop n small bar area beforehand. Then high ceiling room, before enter show area, and it's decorated great! Fun pics. We went for afternoon show so not crowded at all. We got front row seats. Ok con FOOD. Choice was chicken or pork. We all picked chicken. U get salad or soup to start. Salad was iceberg, mostly all the white end parts. So blah. Then chicken, mashed potatoes n veggies (squash n carrots) of the 3 of our chickens only one was cooked decent. My piece was super small n dry. Husbands was decent sized but also dry. Her's was decent size n less dry. Super disappointed. Cake was ok. You can pay extra for various appetizers n of course alcohol drinks. We didn't bother. As soon as you sit pirates are coming up to you. We each were asked to participate. If you get asked do it... have fun! They want you to cheer loud for your pirate/section. The singing was amazing! The stunts/fighting etc was GREAT again 5⭐ worth the show part! Next time I might eat first

This was a very unique experience. Went with my daughter and parents, we all had a great time. We attended the halloween show, so the entire place was decorated in the Halloween theme. Getting there an hour before show time is a good idea as they have a full bar, souvenir store and a counter that sells replica swords from popular movies. The show arena is large and you are seated in color themed groups with your own pirate to cheer for, much like medieval times. The stage is a large ship, so if you are in just the right spot, a ship maste may block your view of some performances. The food is good, not fancy gourmet, but a decent meal; upgrades are available. Servers check on you regularly and bring drinks from the bar for you. Over all we had a really good time and plan to attend again in the future.

Cast: The cast is very good at interacting with the children and the rest of the audience. They definitely work for their money. The cast was amazing and very attentive with the children. I applaud them. They make they provided special attention that was much needed at the end of the show for a child who was non verbal. Especially the blue pirate that played Ben. I really appreciate it. They definitely deserve a raise. We were able to meet everyone after except her favorite character the princess unfortunately she wasn't able to be seen after the show. Check in: Check in before the show starts. They'll give you your seating areas, what group you'll be in, groups are based on pirates colors. If you pay for a package you'll receive a colored flag for your team and colored necklace (It just looks like Mardi gras beads). You can also pay for your parking at The check-in window. You can your upgrade your package at the window and had things. *If you book over the phone for your reservation they charge you have the price on the phone and the other half at check in. Food: The food wasn't good (Yuck), but salt and pepper is at the table which helps a tad. But I'm surprised because before COVID you received more food and way better tasting food. Idk what happened. But if the food tastes gross again I'm bringing purse snacks, lol. Sorry but it's true. For people who don't know they give you an adult option of food or a child's meal for children. They give you dessert I believe if you pay for the dessert with your package. I might be wrong. But they gave us this chocolate cake like thing. It was cold. It had like a glaze icing light brown kind of coconut flavor thing on top. That's how I feel like it taste. I may be wrong. Parking: Plenty of parking. Paid parking. $1 less if you pay in advance. Birthday's: I believe you have to make a reservation. Birthday person gets in free on their birthday month. But there's other fees for additional bday stuff. Bathrooms: Clean Bar: There's a bar inside when you walk in. And someone comes to your seating area and provide you the opportunity to order drinks through them. I don't drink alcohol so I can't say what the drinks tastes like. Gift shop: They have lots of items you can buy there for souvenirs or gifts. Pirate, princess and mermaid items. Face painting: There is a face painting area at the lady's really nice. If it's your birthday you get one free face painting. That's what's going on now I don't know how long that will last. Photo booth: not photo booth per se but when you walk in they take a picture of you and your group. You can pay for the photo and I come around you're seating area. Two photos was around $42+ and three photos was around $62 +. Have to show you're also welcome to take pictures with the cast with your own phone behind the face painting area. The front door staff is boring and dry but once you get in there after the photo it's fun and the vibes start up. I think that's it. I hope this is helpful.

Love the set and actors. Actors did their job well and professionally. Now little issues with the show,there long and because they try to involve audiences it was hard to follow the story or what they are trying to do. However, awesome effort, when someone new comes visit , it will be one of the spots to visit. Oh, food was ok, don't get the chicken.

Excellent show, somewhat absent server (took forever to ask for a refill, and then he forgot about it), good food if a bit small serving. Very talented performers!

If you’re looking for a fun experience, go across the parking lot to medieval times. The performance is less corny, the waiting area and gift shop area and bar are better. This kind of seems like a crammed little tiny building with acting that is so over the top you kind of just wanna leave because it’s not good. Food was ok.

Amazing staff. Amazing performance. I absolutely loved it here. They did an amazing job making me feel welcomed and safe. The food was not nearly as bad as some people say. The characters/performers were professional and despite some hard questions they remained in character and answered honestly. If you are a tourist or a local Medieval Times is a must. 100% would recommend for the young, old, and every age between.

The show was really fun and exciting to watch and we got to cheer our knight. Our group was the yellow group and it looked best and gentle to the eye; thanks God that we were not in the red light. Luckily, our knight was the best one; he was acting very well, charming and frequently interacting with his audience group. I felt like we were in the ancient movies. The server was attentive and nice (and you're gonna be expected to tip quite generous for this service) Food was a lot but so bad to our taste, it was below average in our opinions. We had plenty of leftovers. Our server gave us two big boxes for to go but we did not bring home any 'cause we had no appetite to eat it again. However, we liked the lemonade juice, it tasted refreshed and tasty. I like how they decorated their building and looking at my posted pictures and videos here you can tell the ambiance looks really beautiful and cool. Parking was plentiful. Something we noticed at the entrance was the strike. The previous actors there were on strikes trying to tell other people that their ex-employer abused them and all the horses. Not sure if it's true or not but we could see how sad and depressed the horses looked. We enjoyed the show but also felt bad afterwards.

What a great experienced! My husband and I went here for to celebrate our Anniversary week! We enjoyed our time here, servers and staffs are very friendly! Food was included when you purchased ticket. It was delicious. They gave you a wet wipes to clean your hands. * gotta use your hands though to eat, you can ask for utensils as well if you are not comfortable* The show and the actors are so great!!! Go green house!!! 💚 Parking was easy.. Over all, I will definitely recommend this place!!

Amazing dinner and show! Everyone stays in character the whole time and really give you an experience of a lifetime! The dinner is served while watching the show. They have a few accommodations for meals and seating. Before the show, you can walk around, buy stuff from their many counters of trinkets, Enjoy a beverage or two from the bars, see the horses, possibly meet the royal family! I know with Covid, things have changed a little, but they make the experience great any way.

For the performance, I give it a five, for the food a 4.5. The performance was amazing. Lots of interaction and sword fights and audience participation. Definitely a lot of jokes given from the queen and her right hand man especially about the “oranges…who doesn’t bring oranges” had me laughing! The horses were beautiful and be sure at the end of the show you go to the right of the exit and you can look through protected class them. The knights do engage well with the audience, and the harder cheer the more your knight fights for you. Be prepared next day to be a little horse. No pun intended. As for the food, it was definitely an experience as you dive into the theme. The chicken was a bit dry, but the potatoes and corn were great. And the soup was a great starter; be sure to let it cool it comes out super hot. You do eat with your hands so be prepared, you can ask for a fork if you wish. I will definitely go back to Buena Park location, it’s definitely my first time going to this type of show and although it’s more focused towards the kids and family; it’s fun for all ages. Loved it!

I recently went to Medieval Times with a group of friends and it was an absolutely amazing experience! The show was spectacular, full of action-packed jousts, sword fights, and amazing horsemanship. It was an incredible experience to see knights in full armor compete with each other on horses. The venue itself is also a great place to celebrate a birthday party. The atmosphere was festive and lively, with a great sense of camaraderie from all the guests. The staff were helpful and friendly, always making sure we had everything we needed. While the food was okay, it was still a fun experience to eat with our hands like they did in medieval times. We all enjoyed the chicken, potatoes, and soup. Overall, I would highly recommend a trip to Medieval Times for anyone looking for a great experience and an incredible show. It's perfect for birthday parties or any special occasion, and you're sure to have an unforgettable time.

We took our family to this and they all LOVED IT!!! It was such a fun and unique experience for them. The service was amazing, the gift shop was great to let the boys feel out the swords they wanted, the atmosphere was wonderful! Thank you for giving us such a fun night!! PS~ My husband enjoyed all of this but I think his favorite part was heckling the protesters out front. That made his entire night!

Perfect place to bring family and enjoy a good show with delicious food! Family and I came to celebrate my dad for Father’s Day. Greeted by friendly staff that provide you with your crown. Great places for pictures before walking into the show. Anywhere you sit you get a good view. We loved the experience and our color blue won, which made the experience 10x better! Definitely would return with a different group of people for the experience. The horses were beautiful and looked healthy. Highly recommend this place.

Either for a family, friends or a date. This place is pretty cool. I took me girlfriend then now wife on date. And not too long ago, it was just my daughter and myself. The entertainment is non stop and the food was simple, yet awesome. Staff was great as well. A must do, if in the area.

First time seeing the Medieval Times and it did not disappoint. I came here for the experience so I didn’t really expect much for the food. The food was filling. Soup was cold, Chicken didn’t have any flavor but huge, corn tasted good and dessert was great. Your meal comes with fountain drinks or water. They also sell other drinks. The drinks were good but a little pricey. The show itself was entertaining. Family friendly. Kid friendly. It was a bit too scripted but overall, a great experience. There were ample of free parking spots. They sell souvenirs and you also get to meet the cast and take photo ops after the show. I am aware about the strike and I hope they get to settle it. Also, it is unfortunate that the horses are tied up and crumpled up in a small space. Other than that, it was okay.

We had an amazing time!!! The customer service was great, all the people were polite and very welcoming. The food was EXCELLENT, well cooked and flavorful, I enjoyed every bite of it. As well, our waiter Ashley was very sweet, and she was always checking on us, we really felt like royalty! The atmosphere was really nice, also. Great show, performance, the actors were engaging and very professional. This was an amazing experience and we will definitely go back to Medieval Times! ❤️

We took our daughter here for her birthday and we all had a blast! Staff and actors were phenomenal and made it a real treat! I would highly recommend taking your family and friends here for a dinner and a show! Thanks everyone for making the day so special! Make sure you know how many people are for sure in your party. You can't add more the night of the show.

Second time here and I absolutely love the place! I go during summer camp field trips in a nearby city so the experience is different than most. You have no food selection but just what they gave you which is some really really dry and unseasoned chicken that me and my family didn't much enjoy. Half of the baked potato was decent. Red apple had something off about it on the taste I can't describe. Garlic bread was sooo soft and good! Grandma's sealed cookie bags were great! And a regular water bottle. Entertainment was AMAZING!!! 10/10!!! Staff was really friendly & helpful 10/10!! Really just the food that we couldn't change. . . 2 of my family members starved the whole trip due to refusing to eat the food that was provided.

Great dinner! The food was so good! You eat with your bare hands and it adds to the fun medieval experience. You can let them know prior to the show about vegetarian options to get the soup (also yummy). I brought my lover here for his birthday and we both enjoyed it. It was pretty awesome our knight won the show too!

We went today and we loved the show. The actors, servers, staff, horses and animals were all lovely. Everyone did an awesome job. I loved seeing how nice the staff was to the horses. I am so glad we went. Such a fun time! We will go back again.

Hadn't been in about 15 yrs, this time was the best! Dinner was outstanding! Our compliments to the chef and servers! The entertainment better, more scripted and theatrical! The animals were beautiful! Overall experience was worth it!

Plan to eat with your hands! In medieval times, they didn't have forks and steak knives. The food was pretty good! Roasted Dragon (tastes like half a chicken), corn on the cob and tasty roasted potato...no variations unless you let them know you don't eat meat or have allergies. It's a visually beautiful, authentic experience with a powerful queen and some gorgeous horsemanship. Turns grown men into 9 year boys. Very fun to experience. We upgraded to VIP and were glad we did for photo taking.

Came here to celebrate kids bdays. They had a blast. Our waitress role played with them and they believed they were eating baby dragons. Adults loved the horses. The place was surprisingly clean and not dusty. I expected to smell the animals but it was very minimal. We will definitely bring the kids back. Only complaint was the bathroom. They smelled strong of urine and there only seemed to be one.

I thought this was a FANTASTIC show!!! I really loved how they interacted with the crowd and how the moment you enter MT, they would immerse you from that era! I thought everyone was great and treated us well! There are lots of souvenirs to choose from and at the end of the show, the cast will come out for a photo shoot! I would watch this a second time! *An important note that the price you pay to enter does NOT include gratuity. And from what my family has experienced, the servers worked very hard! So please don't forget to show your appreciation which can either be done by cash or through Venmo, which the server will provide at the end. Thank you MT for making it so much enjoyable for my family!

Medieval Times & Tournament is a captivating dining experience that transports you back to a bygone era of chivalry and valor. From the moment you step inside, the staff's warm hospitality sets the tone for an unforgettable evening. The cleanliness of the establishment adds to the overall pleasant atmosphere.The highlight of the visit is undoubtedly the food. Each dish is prepared with care, offering a taste of medieval fare fit for a king. But what truly sets this place apart is the immersive entertainment provided by the knights tournament. As you feast, you're treated to a thrilling spectacle of combat and pageantry, making you feel like a noble in the midst of the action. The energy in the air as guests cheer for their chosen champion adds an exciting element to the dining experience.Overall, Medieval Times & Tournament never fails to deliver a fantastic time. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply looking for a unique night out, this establishment offers an unforgettable blend of delicious food and thrilling entertainment. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable dining adventure.

Fun place, great show and experience. Clean facilities. Seating staff not very polite. All other staff members were welcoming. I did not make a purchase from the souvenirs store/gift shop counter, high-priced knick knacks. Cups w/drinks are nice to take home. Would come again.

Great place for the family. Fun filled, action packed experience. Great example of dinner and a show. Food was really good, really not much of a selection, what they serve is really the only thing you get. But it's a lot of fun for everyone. Customer service is good, everything is served in portions so that's really the only time you see your server, but they do try to be as attentive as possible. I would recommend this for a family dinner and a show.

Our friends invited us to go, and wow it was a fun and enjoyable night. Food was great (honestly I expected much worse; but everything was super delicious and big) Cleanliness is great and all people working together to give you a good time. Show was good too! Horses were amazing. Parking is super convenient and free. I highly recommend it.

I booked general admission tickets for a party of 12 for my kid's 18th birthday. Always wanted to go & check it out. It was a good experience. The food was decent, you get a soup and bread ( which our bread came out about 45 minutes after the soup ) you get the main meal ( we got chicken, a potato and corn ) which was good! Especially the potato! Drinks which one of my kids didn't gets hers for a good 45 minutes. Coffee and dessert. Which was also good. The server we had was very slow or maybe just overly busy but our food came out slow. We were given a piece at a time and it would take 15 to 20 minutes just to get the next piece...I prefer to eat my food all together. As expected the extras are pricey. No matter where you sit you have a great view. The show was awesome and horses are beautiful. All in all, I would probably return.

The place is a good place to visit with family and friends, to have fun in the water, the rides are good... Just that making a line for so long! It's crazy, by the time they close, you don't enjoy all the rides, maybe a few, and if you want the line to be faster, you have to buy a pass that is a bit pricey 🏊🏼‍♀️🌊💦⛲😎☀️well other than that my family and I had fun, did our best to enjoyed as much as we could

It's Raging Waters. How can you not have fun? The chicken tenders are definitely expensive at $15 but they're really good if that's any consolation. The fries are also good. The lazy river is fun as long as you're in a tube. The water is very dirty so you don't really want to get in it. The rides are all great and the staff is friendly. It's a good time. Alot plenty of time for parking. While they have several shuttles and a bus, it's alot of people to move around.

I see that there’s a lot of negative reviews on this place but that is not the case on my experience. We had a great time here with the kids. The food is descent but if you want to bring your own food you can. Staff were always friendly to us and helpful. When we went it was clean and the stores were organized. The bathrooms were clean and there was always someone in there cleaning the bathrooms. Overall it was a great experience and would return for summer!

Love working here! Definitely a great team dynamic, plenty of room for advancement, and effcient way to earn some income during the summer months. Also grew up coming here as a guest with family and friends and have made some amazing memories along the way. Seen the transformations and improvements of the park over the years and hope to continue seeing the park provide guests with fun-filled experiences. I recommend a season pass!

Cool family spot but there are a lot of negatives. Pizza at the cabana sucks. Preferred parking is $50! Like wow. Ice was not cold in the drinks. Tubes in the lazy river are first come first serve basis. Waves in the wave pool are not even high. Lol But I would come back tho.

We got the tickets online the night before, there was a Labor Day sale, one adult ticket was $39.99 plus a service fee around $4 ($8 service fee for 2 tickets). We also bought the standard parking ($25) and H2Go standard pass ($55). The parking was fine, we got there early as the park was opening. You have to ride a tram so I would recommend getting there early if you buy standard parking. We thought the H2Go pass saved a lot of waiting on a Saturday and allowed us to go on more rides. It was not overly crowded. A Beyond Burger w/ fries was around $18, so was the small locker which fit one backpack. It was fun! Lots of enjoyable water rides, my favorites were High Extreme and Bombs Away 😎

Nice and relaxing day once we were permitted to go in area for Cabana we reserved! Gates opened at 10am, wasn't allowed in area to check-in for Cabana til after 10:15am,then not allowed in Cabana area til 11:00am... Wasted time just standing around. Need better procedure to accommodate guest.

A summer day perfectly spent with kids and friends! Pristine wave pool , kiddie pool, and those big slides huh!! The big slides are more than enough for your adequate adrenaline flow... Please remember of the long lines you will be experiencing for all big rides.. This was my second visit in 4 years and as always I found 2 to 3 rides were under maintenance. Make sure you have enough of sunscreen and a sunglass. Food inside is too expensive ,and not that savory , if you are taking premium parking $50, you may bring food and keep in cooler. Have a waterproof mobile pouch or keep it in locker. Complete park is now cashless. Njoy

It's a great place. If you are looking for fun for a day, this would be a perfect water park for you. But if you are looking for something very exciting, this may not be the best place for you. There's a shuttle bus for a USD 20 parking pass. Not too far from the park. We arrive at 1120, leaving around 1700. Save your favorite spot to the last could save your time on queuing. The summer sale of USD 39.99 per person is a great deal. I believe that the raging racer is the best facility for those who like exciting facilities and dislike queuing.

Group of 6 friends and I came on Father’s Day and it was -awesome- no long lines on any of the rides, we managed to do every single ride in the park. Snacks and stuff were pretty $$$ but that’s expected at any theme park. The wave pool had very small waves, but the lazy river was fantastic.

No outside food, coolers, or chairs allowed. But was fun! Great family environment. If you map your drive be sure to type " Raging waters parking" it will save you some miles!

Raging Waters Los Angeles deserves a resounding 5-star rating for its exhilarating water park experience. While the $50 preferred parking is optional, I highly recommend purchasing it for the convenience and ease it brings to the day. The thrilling water rides and attractions make a waterproof cellphone case an absolute must-have, allowing you to capture every exciting moment worry-free. However, finding available lunch tables can be a bit challenging as some visitors leave their belongings on them without renting lockers. Nevertheless, this minor inconvenience pales in comparison to the overall enjoyment the park offers. While the $20 slush with one-time refill availability may not be the best value, the fun-filled activities and joyous atmosphere more than compensate for it. Raging Waters Los Angeles guarantees an unforgettable and splashing good time for everyone, making it an ideal destination for families and thrill-seekers alike.

We went to the water park . The service was good and the slides were fun. The lines were decent in length. At the worst it was a fifteen minute wait. Biggest advise is to arrive before 10 in order to secure a table for your family. Do be aware that they have college students as lifeguards and workers at the water park. They were very a good people and friendly . We also had problems with the parking which will cost $25 . But the bus was so fast to pick up. The food was kind expensive and not every thing they have as cappuccino they don’t have….

Pros = This is the best water park in SoCal, lots of different slides for all ages, a good lazy river, big kids play area, decent food and amenities. Cons = The $50 "Preferred" parking lot is bullshizzery! You used to be able park close to the entrance if you got there early for the standard fee, but now it doesn't matter, $25 puts in the overflow lots a mile away and you have to wait for a tram, the preferred was half empty all day, that sucks especially for people with little ones. They also could use some more shade structures around the food area, standing in line for 30-45 minutes in direct sun is brutal at 90+.

Unless you pay $50 bucks for preferred parking, the experience is terrible. Even though it’s no where close to being sold out the tram comes once every 20 minutes. It’s also not very well maintained, slides have holes, speakers are rusted.

Great place to keep Kool on a hot summer day but they have a lot of issues, one day they didn't have parking. It's a cashless park and their whole system was down not able to take payments at the front gate when purchasing tickets. Lines to purchase food can take up to a couple hours to get your food. They need to improve these things and the experience would be better.

Very bad organization! There is not enough parking space for cars. very long queues for rides and for food. there is not enough space to put your things! no free tables to eat. if you bought a parking lot for $25, get ready to take a bus to the park and then back, there is a very long line back, so it's better to get out early. The food is not very tasty, it is better to take something with you

A tourist attraction in Yorba Linda worth a visit. The presidential libraries system is a nationwide network of 15 libraries administered by the Office of Presidential Libraries, which is part of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). These are repositories for preserving and making available the papers, records, collections and other historical materials of every president of the United States. So at the Nixon library, there are exhibits showing the historical events during Nixon’s presidency. Nixon was credited for opening China. There is huge poster with life size bronze status of president Nixon and China’s then premier zhou shaking hand. For those of you that are interested in finding out more about the Cold War, many unclassified documents disclosed a lot of interesting intense moments between Russia and the West. Nixon’s presidential helicopter is also on display on the side yard of the library. It’s cool to see the inside of this flying machine. I thought it would be more plush. It’s a bit of a drive for me to get there but it was worth it to visit at a piece of history in person.

My first time visit. The main reason was to attend an Artism Foundation Exhibition at one of the halls. The garden was amazing. We took a tour to visit President Nixon old house. Quote “I believe in American dream because I have seen it come true in my own life.” Richard Nixon, July 19, 1990. This visit was marvelous!

As the owner of Splashes of Time Photography (splashesoftime.com) I must say I love weddings at the Nixon Library. There's so many great photo locations and the staff is amazing. Highly recommend!

Visited Nixon Library on a weekend with friends. Great place to come visit and relive country's past history. Nixon life story with history of politics he was involved with. From Nixon's childhood all the way to his final days. Great place to check off anyone's bucket list. If you love history and want to revisit when we were all younger growing up.

Time helps us understand history. The Nixon Presidential Library helps us all put the past into perspective. The story of some of the most turbulent times in our Nation's history is very well told here. Obviously Watergate, is told in detail, as are such milestones as the return of America's Vietnam POW's, the negotiated peace and exit from Vietnam, and Nixon's leadership in environmental and worker protection, and greater integration of our races and genders. As a male born in 1972 I knew only part of the story. I knew each of the events but had never had their interconnections drawn. I failed to see the diplomat he was as a President and the elder statesman he had become after his Presidency. I am so glad we came here. I would not recommend it for people under the age of about 15 because there is just a lot to absorb but I will definately be returning because there is still more for me to take in. The museum is very well curated and the docents are incredible. Oh and where else can you sit behind the Presidents desk in an exact replica of the Oval Office?

A hidden gem! Who would've known Richard Nixon accomplished so much such as founding the EPA, signing the Clean Air and Water Act, and ending the Vietnam War! The list goes way beyond the three point I made. Before the museum I only knew Nixon for Watergate, afterwards, I know even more about Watergate, but I also know a lot of great things Nixon did. In my opinion, this is the most informative and opinion shifting presidential library. Showing both the malevolence and benevolence within Richard Nixon Definitely recommend!

My second visit to a presidential library. Nixon's colorful history with his groundbreaking cultural diplomatic visit to China, ending the Vietnam War, and the infamous Watergate Scandal. Taking the opportunity to tour Nixon's childhood home on the library grounds, seeing a lifesize replica of the Presidential Oval Office, walking along the beautiful gardens, and immersing myself with the historical exhibits were great experiences. I admired how Nixon's demise with the Watergate scandal were presented in great detail and accuracy.

A very well-organized museum. It's quite enjoyable as it has extensive collection. If you did not know about the the Watergate, thus is the place to learn about it with multimedia experience. Recommended for students as they can look and feel 60&70 in a few hours.

I had wanted to see this library for years and I was favorably impressed. It would have been nice to be able to walk through Marine One, but just seeing it up close was an enjoyable first for me. The museum content seems to fairly reflect the good and the controversial, and like all presidential libraries, there is a LOT to take in, so allow plenty of time. Being able to engage with the surroundings of the Oval Office was also a nice first since usually you are only allowed to view this kind of political sacred ground from behind the velvet ropes.

Learn about President Richard Nixon as well as many other Presidents. Very spacious and wonderful exhibits. See the gardens, his original home he was born in and the two wings of the library. Beautiful and informative. Plan on spending 1.5 to 2.5 hours to get a look at all it has to offer.

My expectations were kind of low for this visit, but I came away feeling like this was a very worthwhile experience. My biggest concern was that the whole Watergate affair would be whitewashed or minimized. It wasn't. There is an entire room dedicated to the matter and his staff farewell address on a loop on one of the displays. I knew there was, what I assumed, was model of his boyhood home on the grounds. It's not a model, it's the actual home that his father built and the museum sits on the site of their orchard that was established in the early 1900's. A lot of the furnishings and accessories are also authentic as his mother had the wherewithal put their belongings in storage when the family relocated. They also have *the* helicopter that he boarded on the day he left the Whitehouse after the resignation.

Milhous was a dynamic leader whose accomplishments have been overshadowed by one moment in time. He provided consultation and advice to Reagan, both of the Bush's and Clinton. He is responsible for SSI, he funded the EEOC, he created OSHA and the EPA, he signed two landmark arms control treaties with the Soviet Union, he opened the world to China, he made the U. S. military a volunteer service, he oversaw the desegregation of southern schools, he gave native American's the right to tribal self determination and opened the door for women in collegiate sports by signing Title IX.

As a student of history and politics, it is always an enjoyable experience to learn more about a historical figure. The museum does a wonderful job in displaying details about a very complex man. Pat Nixon's Garden is absolutely beautiful and tranquil.

I really enjoyed the Candlelight tribute with Taylor Swift. I like the way they set up with the performers in the center, giving everyone, even with the low priced seats a good view of performers. The Richard Nixon Library is beautiful and with the candles set all around was absolutely breathtaking. Would love to do this again at this venue since its convenient, simple parking and easy to get to.

President Richard Nixon Library and Museum Recently refreshed the museum has 70 Exhibits and 30 multimedia events plus hundreds of pictures. It also includes his birthplace. Admission 25.00 Ticket The facilities are clean and well lit. It is Handicap Accessible in its parking, entry and bathrooms. The site has ample parking If you are a history lover like I am browse the exhibits and soak in our nations history.

My friend found this event on the Fever app. My friends and I wound up going to the Candlelight concert with the orchid quartet playing tribute songs of Taylor Swift. We had a total blast! If you never been to a classical candlelight concert surrounded by candlelights with your favorite music artists played by the orchid quartet, I highly recommend you check them out. The orchid quartet is music to my ears. I would totally go to their concerts in the years ahead. Thank you for making this night a memorable experience!

The concert was absolutely amazing and filled with so much emotion! It was an incredible experience for my friends because it was their very first string quartet performance. They were completely blown away and couldn't find the words to express how they felt. Let me tell you, the Richard Nixon museum venue was the perfect choice for this show. It added an extra layer of charm and made the whole concert even more special. I can confidently say that it was one of the most beautiful and emotional concerts I've ever been to!

I've photographed several weddings at The Nixon Library throughout the years, most recently this past year for Kaye & Linh's big day. This venue never disappoints, it's beautiful both inside and outside in the gardens. I highly recommend this wedding venue.

I had the incredible opportunity to photograph a heartwarming wedding at the Richard Nixon Library and Museum, and it was nothing short of magical. The historic charm of the venue provided the perfect backdrop for a day filled with love, style, and cherished moments. The bride, groom, and their two little angels, Axel and Delilah, made the day truly special. Every corner of the library and museum seemed to come to life with their laughter and love. I would highly recommend the Richard Nixon Library and Museum for any couple seeking a venue with historic charm, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to be part of this unforgettable day. Five stars and beyond! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It is a hit and miss - I had a friend that liked his tour. But, for me, it was unforgettable in a bad way. I went to the tour in 2016. The tour guide (I wish I remember his name, but he can be seen in one of the pics, wearing a olive green shirt) was terrible! It looked like he hated that job, or he was replacing someone else. There is a wall with some historic guitars (including some early days Fenders), he didn't allow us to stop and see it. He was constantly ironic, sometimes impolite at people. He mocked my accent (I'm Brazilian) in front of people when I asked a question. He was rushing people. Despite that, I saw a Limited Edition guitar what was about to be launched and I asked if I could buy that guitar. But the purchase experience (with the same guy) wasn't nice, so I gave up. Also, when you enter the main tour hall, there is the ModShop room (place where you can assemble your own guitar, putting different parts together) and the professional on the charge of that room was also rude. Factory-wise: it's just a factory. Nothing different from other regular guitar factories. The pics I'm posting here can prove my point. Something good: at that time, there was a room with most guitar amps made by Fender, and anyone could give them a spin. On the other hand, there wasn't a lot of guitars to be played. Anyway, I used to be a Fender fanboy when I was a kid, and that tour was the last straw, shaking my relationship with the brand. This is my experience and I wish I had written it immediately after my visit. PS: the smile in one of the pics was taken before the tour, when I arrived at the facility.

Drove all the way from San Diego, Visitor Center closed. They should have listed it on their website CLEARLY. WE ARE CLOSED DUE TO COVID !!! The security guard that met us at the entrance said “I keep telling Maria to change that “ Very inconsiderate

My 2015 Fender American Standard Stratocaster (olympic white) has aged nicely, however the polyurethane paint is starting to show through and I can clearly see that it has 4 pieces of wood glued together. IS THIS WHAT FENDER HAS BECOME??? Anyway it looks terrible, not the quality you would expect from Fender.

Even with covid restrictions lifted fender does not want the public to tour. I don't want to buy from them then. No where was it listed they are closed to the public and they don't offer a phone number to call.

Awesome! Amazing to see the dedication and hard work that goes into every guitar and amp.

When you see the craftsmanship, it is impressive. My fellow Americans should see made in America at work.

They are hiring.

I love coming here during the holidays to see the Christmas lights and browse all the shops they have. It does get very crowded and parking can be difficult to find even in the lots outside the mall especially on the weekends. Some of my favorite food spots here are Lucille's, The State, and The Dessert Bar. The mall has a little grassy area towards the center where kids usually play, and during the holidays they can catch a train ride or a picture with Santa. The streets and sidewalks are also wheelchair/stroller friendly, though since it gets crowded it can get hard to navigate inside a smaller store.

I think Victoria Gardens is a great place to shop and eat. It's got such a good vibe and a lot of the great stores. Plus it has a gravity to it. If you're in the Rancho Cucamonga area for any reason, you'll be drawn there. I was in the area to attend Rolling Loud California and needed some extra warm clothing because of the unseasonably cool weather. I got what I wanted and a great meal all in a place that truly felt alive and vibrant.

I'd you love good food, good shopping, and a great atmosphere then make your way to Victoria Gardens. This place has it all and then some. From fast food to upscale dining, lounge wear to formal it's here. My favorite time to visit is the holiday season because of the decorations and the big beautiful Christmas tree in the courtyard that brings smiles to so many. Great place to take a walk and window shop or people watch with a nice warm cup of coffee or hot cocoa. Fun for people of all ages. Come and enjoy what the IE has to offer. Tonight we celebrated our anniversary at Paul Martin's. Beautiful restaurant with a great menu, bar and staff that makes for an excellent dining experience .

I’ve been visiting this outdoor mall recently and I found fantastic. So clean and organized. No matter how busy it is you always find parking. There is a little real mini train so kids can ride on it, that is so nice!

Victoria Garden is the landmark in Rancho Cucamonga especially around the holiday season. The Christmas atmosphere there is simply magical! It is a great place to hang out with friends and family, take a walk or enjoy a good meal in a relaxing atmosphere. However, there have been some safety concerns lately such as car windows bring smashed or cars being broken into. Like in any other places, always be mindful of your surroundings especially when you park your car.

A great outdoor shopping center, with brand name shops and eateries to browse and dine at. I like it much more than Ontario Outlet Mall.

The mall is gorgeously lit up with xmast Decoration. This is an outdoor style of mall so layer up in Fall/winter. You might need to cross the intersection a lot for stores hoping which I personally don’t like it but the mall has a great ambience and selections.

Lots of great shops, I hate walking but walked a ton this day and loved it! Beautiful setting, mountain backdrop, clean, tram rides around center, great food. Simply beautiful day

This mall feels more high-end than the one down at Ontario. The streets are decorated, and you can drive through this mall which makes this mall feel like a small town on its own. This has a very similar feel to The Americana back home.

Love this outdoor mall, can be busy but always able to find parking. Love the shops and restaurant they have to offer, love the cobble stone sidewalks, fun just to walk around and people watch as well. Lots of benches through out the property. Lots to do even if you don’t wNt to shop, like train and water pad for kids, farmers market available too.

I wish I knew about this fun place when I first moved out here. It is so fun, has so many brands and stores to shop at. It feels like a small town/village where u walk outdoors to all the different restaurants, shops and stores. It is very festive this time of year with beautiful lights and decorations

Quite possibly one of the best times that I’ve had in Cali was at this shopping center. I don’t know that I can call it a shopping center. It appeared to be so much more than that. There were a plethora of stores that were appealing to myself as well as my mom and other family. There was no way we could finish this in one evening. There were too many stores and restaurants to name. I plan to conquer this mega-outdoor mall upon my return because I will not be defeated. Plenty of parking and the best thing about it was that it was outside.

It's an outdoor shopping center. Good selection of restaurants. Also there is a movie complex here. Luv the old signs and ads spread around the place.

Victoria Gardens is a great place, lots of stores for sure, so many that couldn't take pictures of all. From regular to fancy stores.... WOW !! The parking is huge and if you are lucky you get to find parking by the streets where stores are at. There is an AMC theatre in between all that, many nice restaurants of all kinds of food as well. Also a little train ride for kids. Be prepare to walk a lot...... it's worth it though.

Multiple blocks of outdoor shopping. Restaurants, pastries, entertainment, clothing, toys, and specialty stores. You also get a beautiful view of the mountains.

I love coming here to shop and eat. I live 30 min away, we don’t have anything like this in my town. There are so many shops and restaurants and the streets are always clean. You can park on the main streets where the shops are but they can get filled up quickly. There are a number of parking lots close to shops and restaurants.

Amazing NASCAR Experience!!! The NASCAR Racing Experience is one of the best NASCAR schools in America! For anyone who wants speed and thrills, come to this experience! The team is really awesome and nice, and the drivers are great! And the experience itself is really awesome!! For anyone who wants speed, come to this experience! It’s a ton of fun!

The roar of the engines is defending and the gush of wind that follows is tremendous while more than you can count race cars go flying across the track at 180, 190+ mph miles per hr. It's hardcore entertainment.

So much fun

Have you ever dreamed of getting behind the wheel of a real NASCAR race car? Well, believe it or not, this is a dream that can come true with a visit to the Richard Petty Driving Experience in nearby Fontana. During this incredible experience, you’ll drive an authentic NASCAR race car. These cars have been driven by NASCAR greats, and you never know, you may end up driving one that was driven by one of your racing heroes.

They asked us to arrive 25 minutes ahead of time & we ended up waiting 2.5 hours

Never go here. Horrendous service with shady last minute cancellations and no refunds. Crazy that a place like this is allowed to operate a business.

They took out the drag strip

The last stop for the Elite Military service. May their souls rest in peace. Decent place with excellent service for them men and woman who have served our country.

This is a beautiful cemetery. Everyone that works there are kind and truly care about you and your loved one that is put to rest. They are very compassionate throughout the entire process. It is a very peaceful place now that I go back frequently to visit both my parents who have passed away.

This area is wonderful because it's a great idea to go for letting their feelings out for the respect of fallen soldiers and retired armies (all branches) and their family members who served to fight for our freedom! We'll always be coming back to visit! It's definitely recommended!

Cemetary is always kept in pristine condition. Staff are very helpful with supplying data they have available. More info on burial permits, larger list of pastors and local florist familiar with funeral set up/ time lines would have been of great assistance. Van Buren florist offered no miltary discount & much higher priced than other local florist. We went through Willow Branch Florist on Indiana Ave flowers were fresh excellent ontimarrangement.flowers

What a lovely cemetery with ponds, trees, ducks and wildlife. It is an honorable resting place for those who have served our great nation as well as their spouses. People please be respectful and keep your dogs in your car, it is disgraceful to see someone’s pet doing their “business” on American soldiers plots 😡. It is kept up by volunteers and they generally have served as well so as please just be courteous and respectful to all 🥰

I love this place. It is a beautiful place to be buried and my oarents are both there. They have various events during the year. If you are looking for a grave my suggestion is you do it online, before you go, because internet is not very good in there. They have a computer look up system, but sometimes it is.

We laid my fiancé’s grandfather to rest here and everything turned out beautiful. The military honor ceremony was so nice. The TAPS music playing, the gun salute with rifles and all the small details were just what we needed to say our final goodbye and pay our respects to our proud veteran. The staff was all very kind as well.

Beautiful place horrible service!! They disrespected my loved one too the fullest. The services were rushed, lasted 15 min at most and was rudely interrupted by one of their workers!! Our party got separated by the workers and we didn't even get to say a proper goodbye. I've never been to a funeral that was handled so poorly. Heather who was a point person was all over the place and rude. When we asked her what just happened and why did we get separated she simply said, pin your location and have your siblings come to the grave site. I informed her that they didn't have their phone on since it was our father's funeral and she said, well you can walk to go get them. Then she said, I have another service to get to so if you have any questions you can email me.. I emailed them to complain and of course I never got a response. Horrible service

Thank you for allowing these wonderful people to ride through and honor our heroes. ***Updated*** On my recent visit, I noticed this new statue that will be installed. Absolutely beautiful. It's a shame that funds are still being raised for the installation.

Very well maintained cemetery for veterans and families. Unfortunately recently electronic signs are not updated. Make sure you check at the entrance booth for current information. Open sunrise to sunset.

Beautiful Very scenic and scerene

We came to visit and teach our children about Memorial Day. This cemetery is vast and beautiful. I have learned that the Riverside National Cementary is the largest of all in the United States. So many stories one can learn from reading the several placards scattered throughout the cementary. Even on a busy day like today you can find areas of tranquility. The memorial to the medal of honor soldiers is a sight to see. I would recommend good walking shoes and parking at the entrance off Van Buren. I was told inside the administration office there are several war artifacts however it was closed due to Covid policy.

I was so embarrassed when they ask me to sign where my husband was lay to rest, which it was in the same gave his first wife is buried. And than Riverside noted he will now be with his love of his life. And the tomb stone will read Tony and his wife name. I wouldn't mind if it wasn't done with friends present. Now it is being talk about.

It is a beautiful cemetery with fountains and ponds. The grass is spectacularly green.

My Father-In-Law (Albert) passed in 2009 and was laid to rest at this beautiful quiet and warm cemetery. The staff assisted Tina's uncle and myself when making the arrangements for Albert and must say ... Was deeply IMPRESSED.

What an incredible experience. You don’t have to be aviation fan to enjoy this beautiful museum. Amazing technology created decades ago. You get to see the SR-71A Blackbird the worlds fastest aircraft up close. And the magnificent B-52 which is a monstrous aircraft. A very broad selection of fighter jets. There’s a lot to see at this museum so plan to take your time if you want to fully appreciate world class aviation.

March Field Air Museum was a fantastic surprise for me, as I just happened to be in the area for business. They have several dozen classic military aircraft on display, and many in the process of being restored - I actually got to see a technician working on an F-4 Phantom as well as an F-86. Any military aviation enthusiast will love this facility. It’s a little more rough around the edges than more major air museums, but I loved that about it. You can tell the museum is a passion project for those involved.

Having been to a bunch of aviation museums, including Dayton AFB, the USS Intrepid, and the Smithsonian, I would put this up there as one of the best. They're very well stocked with tons of cool aircraft, and the staff is really enthusiastic. Plus they're right next to an active airfield with F-35, F-16, F-18, and Predators. I wish I had more time and will definitely be going back next time I'm in the area.

March Field Air Museum is Incredible! - Was there for the Ulises Cabrera For Mayor 2024 Campaign Kickoff and Birthday Celebration. It has changed dramatically since I was last there with many outstanding new displays and friendly staff members. I encourage everyone to visit March Field Air Museum!!

This place is wonderful for the family. We loved every part of the exhibit. The museum is well curated and maintained. The vets working in there are amazing and kind. We had a very good time.

My family had an amazing time here! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable with first-hand experience. So much to do and see. Nice gift shop. A wonderful history lesson!! Just wish we had more time to stay. I would plan on spending at least 3 hours to see and do everything!

This museum is fantastic if you ever wanted to see the Blackbird (The 'top secret' fastest plane in the world) up close and personal this is the place to go. I suggest you do not use the coupons mentioned on the first page. Check picture number two with the admission prices.

March Field Air Museum was absolutely fantastic. Generally admission is $15 but Veterans get a discount. They have a gorgeous SR-71 inside with the canopy open so you can get a look inside the cockpit. Totally awesome. The flight line outside has a wonderful collection of aircraft from many decades of service. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and a joy to talk with while visiting the museum.

This place is truly a hidden gem, offering more than just the opportunity to see airplanes and artifacts; it provides an unforgettable experience of meeting former pilots such as the great Walter Fus. He shared captivating anecdotes and tales of his journeys, showing us pictures that filled us with pride for our men in uniform and the Air Force. I learned a tremendous amount from listening to him. Witnessing the dedication and effort required to maintain these engineering marvels was eye-opening. Exploring the cabin and being surrounded by controls, switches, and buttons was an exhilarating experience. This place is at the level of the NASA Visitor Center in Florida. Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity to bring your family and friends along and take advantage of this fantastic place where you'll create great memories that you and your family will cherish forever.

If you live in socal, you owe it to yourself to visit March Field Air Museum and learn some history about such an important location that's been the home to some of the most famous aircraft in history. To live so close to such a historic place, it'd be a disrespect to our veterans and currently serving men and women not to visit. One of the coolest museums that I've ever been to where you can be within breathing distance of some of these iconic aircrafts. Oh and before I forget, yes they have dessert and they serve that as soon as you walk in in the form of the SR-71 Blackbird and it is magnificent.

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome! So glad I made the drive down here. Worth the traffic. Parking is easy and the museum has plenty of air conditioned indoor space. It can get very hot and, other than under wings, there is little shade in the outside areas. This whole facility is way more than I expected it to be. A huge selection of aircraft, vehicles, uniforms, and much more. Covers all the major conflicts, space, and civilian aviation. The inclusion of memorabilia from other nations is a really nice touch as well. On par with the Air Force museum in Dayton, OH.

From my point of view, this air museum is one of the best among similar establishments in Southern California. It has a vast collection of military aircraft, including WWII and decades of the Cold War. My favorite airplane at this museum is SR-71. It was a unique reconnaissance aircraft capable of cruising for hours three times faster than the speed of sound. It carried incredibly sofisticated photo cameras and various advanced sensors. Visitors can see this amazing airplane from a close distance and even take a look inside of its two cockpits. There is a nice gift shop inside the museum. The museum's personnel is very friendly and knowledgeable. They also have many volunteers who are happy to answer any questions. It's a really nice place for any aviation and history buff.

March Field Air Museum is one of the larger museums that I have visited. There are quite a few.modern warbirds. Sadly most are in terrible condition. The paint is peeling, wind screens are cloudy and many have flat tires. I would rather see preservative plastic on the glass than what I saw. When you can see the cockpits, they are in a decaying state. It would be wonderful if someone could clean up the interiors. Not a lot of prop driven planes, mostly jets. I did enjoy watching KC-135's doing touch and goes. Plus a pair of F-16s took off, that fun watching. March Air Museum is a great teaching location. Children will learn about military aviation throughout history.

Thank you, Mike, for the best tour ever!! Very fascinating information. This place was so much larger than we had expected, and it is really well done. Don't hesitate to stop by here!

Awesome museum! Super friendly people. Love the exhibits up close and free to touch most of them. Hands-on experience on may exhibits. Super Awesome flight simulators are free to use. Bring your good walking shoes. You'll need them outside for their extensive collections of well maintained military aircrafts. If you don't feel like walking, that's okay. They offer a guided tour where they do all the driving and will stop at every aircraft and give you an excellent description of every aircraft. Love this place!! S

Fantastic visit to March Field Air Museum! A treasure trove of aviation history with engaging exhibits and friendly staff. Great for all ages. Highly recommended!

The March Field Air Museum is a great air museum with a vast and interesting collection of aircraft and other items. Highly recommend visiting if in the area, and the numerous planes outside the museum are a great sight to see.

The workers are very nice, very friendly, professional and above all they answer all your questions about the place. In fact, I think most of them have been working there for a long time because they know a lot about it. There are two areas. The inside area is history and The outside area has all the airplanes you can imagine. I really loved the museum.

Stopped by the Museum on our way from Joshua tree to San Diego. My kids had a wonderful time doing a scavenger hunt for critters inside the museum/hangar. It was wonderful to see retired aircraft’s and learn about their history. Bring your kids along and have a blast…highly recommended!!

Outstanding museum, if you like airplanes or want to learn more. The mini bus ride around almost every plane is a must do (about 45 minutes). The military radio history is pretty good also. The people that work there are mostly volunteers and really enjoy what they do and are very knowledgeable. This place is a great tribute to those who served. Real glad we went.

I’m impressed with the amount of aircraft that are on display. The docents are so willing to share their knowledge and sometimes experience in the exhibition. I recommend you a lot time to see the vast amount of aircraft on display.

Never met a man who’s so disrespectful and impolite and Ignore me just because I have 15 mins before close time. His name is James . Super disgusting and disrespectful. I had the guys that fix the beers Sergio before him . They called him and he walked up and said I’m not serving you. What kind of employee does this: he hid behind the bar after asking his name multiple times .

We were there Saturday September 28th, 2019. 10 dollar cover charge with players card. Limited seating and the BOE (Best of everything Band) was great. DJ Gary is one of the better old school DJ's that you will find. We had an Excellent night out! Will be back to visit soon.

Nice lounge, dancing music - mix of Latin music and r&b. (Went on a saturday night 1130 to 130) Drinks are very weak. Go to rock and brews first, they have strong, good drinks.

Horrible. Went for what I thought was a free concert then found out we had to pay a fee. Super Small area. I was willing to pay the fee but then was told that I was not allowed in because the dress code doesn’t allow sandals without a heel strap… RIDICULOUS!!! It doesn’t even say anything about their dress code on their website OR at the place!!!!

I am having a bad experience right now. Waitress Ibeth spilled drinks on us just because she got distracted by saying hi to her friends ..even tho she brought the drinks we didn't ask for. It's been 30 min and we haven't had what we asked. We complained about it with "Jorge" twice ... he did NOTHING about it. Don't come to this place. They charge you to enter and for the table that is not even worth it.

I can't say enough about how TERRIBLE this place was. What a waste of money!! Those teenage looking managers were on a huge power trip and were so rude,They desperately need a course on customer service. I Celebrated my 40th birthday with a huge group and had to pay $20 a person just to enter another $50 just to sit and $8 for each little 1/4" shot in a Dixie cup. $300 later they CHANGED rules half way through the night to force masks WHILE we were all dancing. I called ahead to reserve a table and wasn't told any of this before hand. Such a disappointment

Good place for live music and to associate with others or get togethwr with friends. Good waitress. Not enough bartenders and the bar is too small for the actual needs of crowed. Drinks are served to perfection. Not all bartenders are good but the times ive gone they been really good.

Outdoor amphitheater are always fun and great arts and culture surrounding it!

The Redlands Bowl is an outdoor amphitheater located in Redlands, California. It hosts a free summer music festival featuring a variety of performances including concerts, plays, and dance shows, showcasing both local talent and renowned artists.

Came for the opening night for the summer season. It was wonderful to be there, listening to the orchestra, the amazing singer, and relaxing under the stars. My grandfather Bill Gollan used to play here many years ago as a concert pianist when he owned three local music studios (Gollan Keyboard Music Studios). He had one on Orange street, one in Banning, and a third one I forget where. My first job was at the Smiley Library, and my High School Graduation in 1988 was held there. I love Redlands, the culture, the preservation of history, and the gem that Redlands is. Thank you for a fantastic evening!

We’ve lived in the area for so long and finally attended a music event here. Although we got there after starting time, we were still able to enjoy the music while sitting on the grass. I can imagine people arrive very early to find a sitting spot on the benches, or in the grass, where you can still get a good view of the stage. Hoping to come again soon.

Very fun experience free with donations! Bring your family and have a nice outing this summer. Different performances of plays, bands, singers, and orchestra to name a few. Check their website for a brochure on who is performing and when. The fact it's free is a gem of our community and should be protected, cherished, and supported.

Love bringing the family here, had a great evening watching Hello, Dolly! the other night.

A free concert to watch the famous Spinners, I'm there! Great venue, good acoustics (I sat in the lawn way in the back too) and generally a great community.

Large outdoor space with benches and grassy areas for a picnic. The real 5 star experience is the summer Bowl season. It is the best, even compared to the Hollywood bowl because it is free. What a great way to bring together a community. It starts at 8 pm so make sure the little ones are comfortable.

Wish I knew about this outdoor venue sooner. Nothing much happens in the area but this is cool. Free concerts and shows. Tips and donations based. Parking on the st. Or the lot down the block at the old mall. Food and drinks served sometimes. Icecream is 3bucks. Come early for good seats. Bring picnic blankets, food and snacks and hangout with friends with live music.

The Redlands Bowl is a gem right in the heart of the city. Saw Little Mermaid performed there last weekend for FREE and my family loved it. We came early and brought a picnic. It was our first time ever going to the bowl. But now that we know how fun it is, we're going to check out more of their shows. Planning on seeing Sergeant Pepper's Bluegrass band this week!

Incredible that the community puts all this together - and for free! It’s what community is supposed to be all about - access for everyone! We went to hear the Mariachi Divas and they were delightful.

Always a great experience! Hello Dolly was amazing and their 100 year extravaganza was epic! I love that it's outside.

What an amazing first time experience in Redlands Bowl! People of all ages gather together to watch Taiko Drummers in their heart pounding performance-literally and figuratively. Their performance was like a perfect marriage of music and martial arts. The performers were very enthusiastic for enormous crowd. Takes time to get used to it since the pandemic. The cherry on top was you get to watch it for free. Bring your own picnic mat and folding chairs. I just frown up some folks living their trash in the seats. Kindly be responsible and help this long standing free summer open air music for other people to enjoy. Programs every Tuesday and Friday at 8 pm. No registration required. Hour long performances from artists

Great place to do a variety of things with the family. From the slides, the coaster, water slides, zipline, video games, and food court. Be aware, that if you tried to do everything in a day, you may spend more here than you would at Disneyland. But, if you're looking for some fun in the mountains, this is a great stop. We went on a Sunday, I'm sure Saturday's are much busier. There isn't any entry fee, you pay for each individual ride you decide to participate in. So it's nice in that aspect especially if you're on a budget or just want to do a quick ride on one thing and move on.

Awesome place. At the time it is $9 per slide and 5 slides for $40 I think (forgot). You have to sign a waiver just in case you fly out so expect to add maybe 10 more minutes before you can even slide. After that you take the lift to the top and choose your cart to go down with. They look worn but it didn't matter when I used mine. At the top, you can choose from 2 lanes. One is meant for slower sliders but it's the same parallel track. They instruct you how to use the brakes and you're off. That simple. Just as a note, it can pick up speed quick so careful not to fly out the track and have fun! I didn't record going down but I'll update it next time I go for sure. Worth it and you can gain some speed if you really want to.

Hours of entertainment with so many different options here. It's not cheap, but worth trying. They really stepped up there. Summertime, non-snow activities. While the Alpine slide is still a blast, the new mineshaft coaster ($20) is fast, exhilarating and surprisingly long. Go karts and other attractions add to the fun.

Wanted to go here on our visit to Big Bear because of all the great attractions and great reviews. It was snowing and the only attraction open was tubing. But that is the one thing we wanted to do as we didn't go skiing or anything. It was so much fun! The hill was just the right size and was exciting. I went about 4 times! The kids loved it! The price was about $10 more then should be, but I'm cool with it. Will have to come during the summer next to experience the other attractions!!

Very fun. It's one of the best things to in Big Bear. However the prices are very steep. Like Seriously, 12$ for a short Zipline Like experience and the coaster was also highly priced. Though it was an enjoyable experience that I think you should go if you can afford, just keep in mind that if you do most of the activities with a family it can get very pricey.

One of the very few places to go snow tubing during the winter when there's no snow, thanks to their snow machines. Came here for the snow tubing. Everyone loved it. It gets busy pretty early. By noon, the parking lot was full. Entrance for tubing was $45 a person. It includes tubes and lift. Hanging out in the food area and outside the play area is free. They do have other types of rides. Went in the Coaster and it was amazingly fun, way better than a ride at an amusement park. There wasn't much seating in the eating area for how busy it got. But the food was a decent price and good for a small snack bar. It was well worth the time and money to get away from the city. The drive was beautiful, with lots of trees and a huge lake. You could also spend part of the day at the city center. I would recommend this place, especially if you have kids. They seem to love the snow.

This place is pretty awesome! I would advise getting there early before they open if you visit on a holiday weekend like I did. The parking lot was horribly congested. The coaster and luge are pretty fun. The coaster is expensive for one ride — $20. The lines move slightly faster than you’d think, but they really should make it easier to sign the waiver. It holds up the lines. Otherwise, there are also some other attractions that I didn’t bother with. But, it’s worth a stop.

This place is an absolute blast! In my honest opinion, the mine shaft coaster is a must if you visit Big Bear Lake in the warmer months. It gets a little pricey with paying separately for the coaster, alpine slide, go karts- but it's worth it.

Overpriced and overrated. $20 for one ride on the roller coaster. $9 per go cart ride. $9 per slide down the hill. $9 per trip for snow tubing. You will spend as much as you would at Disneyland. No good food options. One particular staff member made me so mad, I was almost willing to catch an assault charge but there was no snow this Thanksgiving week so I had no choice but to let my kids play all day there.

This was such a great place to spend the day with the family. They have great snow tubing and other rides also. There is a roller coaster, zip line, bumper cars, and slide long slide to go down on a little sled. There is a place to order food and drinks and a restroom inside. Everything is a separate price and the lines do get long in the early afternoon. Go early to beat the crowds.

We visited on New Year's Day and waited 45 minutes to sign the waivers. Then we went and bought tickets which was a quick line. Only thing is you buy the day pass for almost $50 and then the chair lift is an add on, as is the rollercoaster. So it is not an all inclusive ticket. It could get very pricey with all of those combined. The arcade is lacking with approximately only 10 games, several of which were broken. The inside is small and basic, some picnic tables outside. But they sell churros! Yum! (I think $4 each). All in all it felt like a bit of a rip off and the long wait did not help. But hopefully it is shorter and quicker on a non holiday. The kids loved the tubing and chair lift to the sledding tube, however, so all was not lost!

We had so much fun! The activities were a little pricey but definitely worth it. We spent one afternoon tubing and the next day we rode the eagle and the alpine coaster and all of the activities were a blast! Sign your waivers before getting in line or they will not let you participate. We got a cabin within walking distance so we didn't have to hassle with parking which seemed pretty full on weekends.

I'm giving them a three because it is frustrating that you have to go to 3 different places to buy tickets. They should have one designated area to buy tickets for all the events. It feels like there are three separate owners working on one location. From a business standpoint, they would be able to make more revenue by creating package deals if there was oly one area to buy tickets.

It's a little pricy for what you get but the kids love it, tubing, alpine slide, some old video games, snack bar, DON'T FORGET TO SIGN YOUR WAIVERS before getting in line for the rides

I liked the atmosphere and the games, but the tiring thing is when you waiting to take a line to get a ticket for ride and when you take the line for waiver, is very long, it takes an hour and more , and in the end you will play one game a day, and at 4 pm they close . we played in the snow for one hour for three persons . It cost $140.games are expensive there.

Crowded lifts, lots of people and snow can be slushy. Can be ok if you must ski in so cal. Avoid fresh snow days as it will be packed wall to wall. Better to just drive a bit further so you can enjoy your day more. Other than the the resort is nice but needs to update older lifts. Addition of 1-2 more all mountain lifts would help to eliminate issues with lines. Needs better snow making capabilities to take advantage of snow making days.

It had been years since we skied here. We typically ski in Mammoth. We have the Ikonpass and Big Bear is only 2 1/2 hours from home. This was our first ski trip for this season and we went at the end of January. We went on a Friday and we didn’t realize that they charge for parking close to the resort. There is free parking farther down and there is free shuttle service. There is a long wait for the shuttle. Snow Summit is bigger than Bear Mountain & the lodges are nicer. There seems to be less snowboarders than Bear Mountain that I like.

Nice place. Wish they had night time runs during the week. They also really do give you free lift tickets If you are there on your birthday. My wife skied for free our last day. That was an added bonus.

We came here for downhill and it was worth every dollar. The bike rental service is excellent: bikes are high quality and they give protection for elbows, knees and head included. The lines for the summit lift are very quick and smooth. The trails are of 4 different levels, all super nice and various. Best downhill experience I have had so far.

Had a great time. Rode the lift up. Had a nice lunch. Beautiful views. Rode down with gorgeous views of the lakes. Big bear and Baldwin.

I started my skiing career here! Skiing is so much fun. I met a lot of interesting people! My friends and I took snowboard lessons and the instructor was very experienced. He was super great and taught me exceptionally well! My other friend didn't have a very good experience with the lesson she signed up for though, she didn't feel like she learned a lot. But we all had a great time!

Visited snow summit on a Friday for a hike. Bought a ticket for myself and my daughter. I used my ikon pass all day for food and got one round trip on the chairlift.... summit turns into a bike park during the summer and also has lots of hiking trails. Did a couple trails and picked up lunch on top of the mountain. We had Burgers and fries and it was perfect, lunch with a view. Also, at the bottom they have activities for kids Zipline, Rockwall, bungee trampoline, and you can pan for gold....fun day if you're looking for something to do while I big bear

What's not to love about this place. Snowboarding only 2 hours away from Los Angeles. Night time was very icy but the day was good. I really enjoy the mix of runs available with ramps and boxes to try different things. You can also enjoy the beautiful lake as you head down the mountain.

I love skiing & this is my local ski resort so I really want to give it a higher rating but the experience has some challenges. Parking & traffic control is almost always a mess. It’s gotten worse the last few seasons. Most people have to park off site & shuttle in. We buy the premium parking pass, but it’s still a challenge most days. The lines can be really long in the base area at tickets & rentals. We buy passes which helps, but it can be a maze to get through to the snow. When there is good snow & good grooming, the lift lines are usually pretty short although chairs 1 & 2 can be long. I recommend lessons for beginners, otherwise there aren’t a lot of runs for those without basic skills.

Great place for mountain biking in spring, summer, and fall after the last snow and before the new snowfall occurs. Great also for wintersports, of course. The summit restaurant serves good food in a pretty simple sports dining hall atmosphere. The views from up there are beautiful and so is the lift ride, up and down.

Mountain biking to the extreme. Very fun, but can be very dangerous. Know your limits and have fun. Start with the green runs and work your way up. Very, very addictive and fun!!!

Rode mountain bikes here and it was fantastic...first time here, usually go to sky park or snow valley. Plenty of trails, good variety even for the greens and blue riders...will have to bring my son next time.

I loved the place, I went there with my dad, and brother. We all had a fun time, saw the “Red Cross” people skiing down the hill pretty often to ensure safety. Also saw snowmobile used as an emergency, si place is really nice a safe. Only thing I wish is the prices were better when renting equipment, other than that! Great place!

I visited snow summit for the first time on a Friday and luckily it wasn't packed. Food was pricey and okay. Drinks were pricey but better than the food. Lift prices are a bit high but for every once in a while, it seems fair. Pretty views of the lake and helpful employees

I am an intermediate skier and went solo for the first time. It snowed the day prior so enough snow I didn't have to worry about scraping or anything. Runs were well manicured, with lifts all open, and not crazy busy. I did about 15 runs without incident. The people were friendly and overall pretty curious on the slopes, so a great day! Did I mention the view? Wow. Snow, lifts, lake, just beautiful. Nice warming restaurant - buffet pick up style, quick food, and a fire all inside should you choose. Outside has Adirondack wooden chairs around to "chill" in. Lol. Lift ticket pricing, well... You know everything can't be perfect.

Beautiful place for snowboarding specially after a snow storm, bring chains for your car if needed, check weather conditions, paid parking Friday to Sunday check website for availability, plenty of parking on designated parking lot.

Great resort. Stayed for the night session and was pretty well lit, some shadowy areas but just remove goggles and be fine. Way less people after 4 so highly recommended doing night session.

I have some positive reviews to leave for my families lesson on 3/09/24! Firstly, the kids academy was absolutely outstanding! From the morning when I addressed concerns about my son on his first time skiing the staff put me at ease! After that first session, my son came back and told me “ I love this and can’t wait to do the afternoon session.” The second session he had Rick- and he was absolutely amazing with Conner! First impressions are so very important to a child adapting to a new sport, and this academy did an absolutely wonderful job of making a positive first experience outstanding!!! Thank you to the Kids academy!! Now for my experience, I had not went skiing for 35 years. I went to the second timers class. Within 5 seconds of getting off the magic carpet I was in the snow. Glen O. came over and helped me. He became my teacher for the next couple hours. He helped me overcome my anxiety, calmed my nerves and taught me in an outstanding fashion! After my lesson I actually went up to Summit Run x2 and only fell once! It was because of the excellent teaching that I was able to do this comfortably and with confidence! My husband had Lyle- who taught him fantastically as well! I can’t speak highly enough for all the teachers we had on 3/9/2024!

First time on the slopes as a beginner. They have a Starbucks, a restaurant, and a fire pit outside to warm up. The staff is friendly and they have lessons for beginners for a separate fee. You can rent gear as well.

We love the new Alpine zoo. Heads up though- the gift shop is closed due to the county COVID order. This may not affect too many people however our kids love to shop the stuffed animals as they’ve done every year. All of the indoor exhibits are also closed. However, still a great time walking around, watching the animals and occasionally hearing some insights from zookeepers as they feed the animals.

An inexpensive adventure to take in few bears, birds, and a variety of other mountain type animals. Was a bit of a warm day and the animals weren't that active. Recommend going in the morning. Heard some of these animals were recovering. Would have been great to read some background on them. My 2 year old spent half his time playing on the playground equipment 1/2 way through the enclosure. Had a nice souvenir shop. Very nice employees throughout the zoo 👌

Small and cute zoo, we finished in less than an hour. The highlight was the shiny racoon! I also love the QR codes that lead you to the stories of the animals. Although kids there were a bit out of control, pushing people aside so they get a better viewing spot, howling to the wolfs and stuff, while the parents just stood there and took videos. Please respect other people who also paid to enjoy the zoo.

This is a small zoo/animal rehabilitation center but my kids loved it. We came in January and were still able to at least see all of the animals. It's clean and the animals seem well taken care of. There is a nice picnic/play area on the opposite end of the entrance with tables and a small playground. Decently priced especially considering the money supports animal rehab.

Very nice and well maintained small zoo. I remember coming to Big Bear and seeing this place near the ski place many years ago. I think it used to be called a sanctuary before, now labeled a zoo. Everything is new and the animals appeared to be taken care of. Nice place to visit with the kids when in the area.

We enjoyed our visit here. Yes, it's small and yes, the enclosures are way too small for the predator animals like the Mountain Lion & Coyotes. But it's clean and there is a variety of animals to see. The staff were nice. It's a little pricey, but the money goes to a good cause!

I loved seeing the animals!!!! My kids and I saw a lot of animals we've never seen before, up close too was so cool!!! There were a couple animals that didn't have a description or info on them I was disappointed about that but nice Lil zoo with a cute kids play area :) we were there for ì'd say an hour ish? And omg we saw a blonde racoon!!! Lol

I love zoos and this one did not disappoint. It’s a small sanctuary where the animals can live out the rest of their lives in a safe environment. The zoo was very clean and informative. The front lady was also very sweet.

Enjoyable experience for the family. 15 dollars for adults. Lots of parking in the lot.and free. This is the new location! Construction on roads can be difficult to find the entrance even if youre right there looking at the zoo. Needs better signage. Had to drive all the way around. Costs about 15 for adult tickets. You can see bears, ravens owls foxes wolves coyotes, raccoons, deer, eagle hawk snow leopard. No shade in here only by restrooms. Bring sunscreen and water. No water provided. Children have a small playground inside. Gift shop available. Small zoo. I'd say you can see all the animals in 30 to 1hr taking your time. But its cool to see 👀 ravens tear apart mice during feeding time.

Nice little zoo in Big bear! It will be fun for kids and usually takes less than an hour to walk around! There are many animals and birds to see but keep in mind that they will be in the shadows if it’s too hot when you visit!

Great place to take the kids, small but very nice Zoo with bears, birds, deer, and foxes. Small playground is an added bonus. I suggest going early in the summer months as it is in the sun. Small gift shop with very reasonable prices. I look forward to going again.

We had a blast with our two year old. It’s a small zoo nestled in the mountains and the views are GORGEOUS. It’s set up so that even toddlers can have a great view into every enclosure and there were a couple of play places. This zoo provides the opportunity to get the closest we’ve been to bears before. Very cool.

I've been to many zoos small and large and this one had the saddest looking animals, with the smallest and most barren enclosures. The bears seem to be the star attraction and they're kept in dirt and concrete with a few trees and a water feature. The four owls in a single enclosure with almost no shade was depressing as well. The only animal remotely happy was the fat squirrel. Again I've been to smaller zoos before, but the animals had much more shade/privacy, usually the great frustration with zoos is that the animals are tucked away and hard to see, not here though, completely exposed.

Alex was such a friendly and welcoming staff member that provided incredible fun facts about each of their animals. Definitely a great place to visit any time you're in the area.

It was a very nice day. It is a very small zoo. It was a beautiful day cool weather and it felt like Winter. I must say the animals were very sluggish. It wasn’t very expensive free parking and $11 dollars for seniors.

Nice zoo with a nice path to see all the rescued wildlife animals. There were so many animals, owls, eagles, raccoons, bears, foxes, coyotes. Very clean a lot of traffic but easy to maneuver around. Gift shop was way to busy to buy anything. I will be back.

The staff was really nice, well maintained.Clean restrooms. Small snack shack. Free parking. They have QR codes that you can scan and read the history of the animals. We were there for about 1.5-2hrs.

Only been here once (March 2024) and loved it. It's not a giant zoo but you see a lot of animals and the playground for children was in great condition, my kids loved it. My favorite was the birds, especially the Golden Eagles!

The staff was really nice and the place was well maintained. I noticed all the animals were well maintained and well taken care of. My husband and I really enjoyed our time at the zoo and also learned a couple of things about each animal(QR you can scan) which we found really cool

It’s an outlet as you know. Many stores with lower prices than we thought. Some stores had a line outside of them. Very clean and neat place. It’s right before Morongo Casino if you come from LA. It has huge parking lot. You can see a tall Mt. at background. There are many windmills around.

The Outlet Mall is filled with plenty of places to shop and buy. From food to clothing. From shoes to sunglasses. From A to Z. Look for the best deals. Plenty of places to choose to eat at. Make sure you see everything. The mall extends across the street. Over 130 stores to shop from. Great place if you just want to walk around and enjoy the outdoors.

Less than 10 miles from Palm Springs, but always feels like an adventure when I go there. This time of year, it has so many sales...some as high as 70%. Top Designer brands can be found here. The food court appears to be upgraded, now has Boba tea. Lots of benches for those that feel a need for a break. Lots of parking.

Desert Hills Premium Outlet is close to Palm Springs and it takes more than an hour to drive from LA. Traffic is pretty heavy during rush hour. This outlet is one of the largest outlets with many luxury brands. You could spend a while day shopping at this outlet. Some stores offer great discount up to 75% off.

Outlet Mall has the weirdest parking (parking garage in the back). Some of the Outlet entrances have been barricaded. Put on your walking shoes!!!! Lots of stores, good luck finding a directory/map!

It arranged excellent and the distribution is very excellent. My goal was to buy from Italian brands such as Gucci, Fendi, and others... I think the experience was excellent, but the prices were not enthusiastic and the assortment of goods was acceptable. Important note: 🔴 There is no wifi and signals the mobile was not excellent

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE this place! High end outlets or shopping areas are hard to come by in the suburbs-this place fits the bill! Gucci and Versace had folks lined up like a mob! This was January 2nd AFTER Christmas!! Crazy!

This outlet is surrounded by hills, amazing view. It houses many luxury brands such as Prada, Burberry, Coach, MK and the list goes on. Food and drinks are available. I have a great time shopping here.

This place has all the fancy stores and the not-so-fancy stores. There are so many options but very few directories. They attempted to make this sign (in picture) a directory but it’s so vague. You’ll end up walking around for hours so prepare yourself. The people in this mall are very uppity. I’m sure that most are tourists or vacationers but a lot of them have a stick up their ends. With this in mind, please prepare especially if you’re of color.

Great selection of shops, especially the high end brands. Pretty, outdoor mall with great water features.

There are various outlet stores. There are a lot of extra sales at the sale price. One thing that's disappointing is that there are not many restaurants. There are some restaurants on the street that sell in tents, but it's uncomfortable to sit down and eat.

One stop outdoor mall for all major and popiular designer brands. If you are looking for duscounts this is the mall to go. Lots of parking but weekends are packed. There is a limited food shops for snacks and fast food. A must visit in socal for fashionistas and bargain hunters.

Always a fun place to come and shop! Enjoy a smoothie inside the food court, pizza or burgers. Great place to get your walking in.

If you love to shop, this is the place to go! This shopping center has almost every store in one place. It's a great place to walk around and it's kept very clean. They don't have restaurants but they have a few food stands.

A lot of good and not most common stores. It’s hard to find an outlet for certain brands that I find here. Very chill environment and most as crowded every single day like some. Love it. Coming back!

These outlets are Amazing. Clean facilities with great parking and so many stores you can't count them all. Smiley happy employees ready to help everywhere I went. Discounted items in every store as well so be sure to ask what is going on with sales. Cool place to shop! Something for everyone!

I had the best time at Cabazon and I do not like to shop. We arrived right as they open, so there were no crowds and it was a bit cooler. It started getting busy around noon, so that is my cue to leave. Plenty of parking, mobile carts for kids, plenty of shade and benches. All the stores and the outside common area are very well taken care of. I also could not get over the bargains. I will be back sooner than I should. 😂

Everything you need in the clothing department. Great atmosphere awesome stores. Definitely a good Sunday with the family.

I love this outlet so much !!!I just wish theres more shades around coz standing in the line with a 10000° outside lol but other than that very nice and clean surroundings.Hope they pay attention to food court and decided to put more restaurants around and not just panda or in and out,maybe a cheesecake factory or something lol ✌🍿

Nice outlets but too many luxury and french brands. Not enough food places. 20' away from Palm Springs

A very attractive and clean shopping area. I only visited a couple stores, but the deals looked very good. I did find a pair of joggers at the Under Armour store at a great price. I would love to come back to check out more stores.

We stopped to charge our Leaf. They had chargers from several different companies and they were all in working order. The best part of our May have been checking out all the new EV models that were there. Our only complaint was that the chargers were located on the road that led to the parking garage, so it was a bit busy which made if difficult for some of the owners, especially the guy who pulled in and then discovered he needed to back in for the cable to reach. We walked around the outlets while the Leaf was charging. Most of the stores were open. We tried to buy yogurt at the Pinkberry machine but it wasn't working.

Cabazon Outlets is a must-visit destination for any shopping enthusiast visiting the Palm Springs area . With its close proximity to Palm Springs (only 25 minutes away), and a wide range of big brands available at unbeatable prices, Cabazon Outlets is a great place to get some retail therapy. Whether you're looking for clothing, shoes, or accessories, you're sure to find what you're looking for at this shopping destination. The discounts are significant, making it a great way to save money while still getting the best brands. Overall, we highly recommend visiting Cabazon Outlets on your next trip to the Palm Springs area!

I always take my mom to Brighton as it is one of her favorite stores. Today, they didn't greet us as we entered. One of the clerks followed me all over the store as if I were going to fill my pockets with their stuff. She made me feel uncomfortable. I've never played the race card, but today I will bcuz she let the white women roam around freely. 😠

shopping hub for famous franchises. Takes a day to visit even select shops. Good collections at discounted prices. Enough parking with washrooms at places. Food court is not enough. However, starbucks and Blaze Pizza I enjoy every time I visit. It is better to go early by 11 in the morning to avoid the crowd.

This place is great! There are so many clothing stores to choose from.. however, the ice cream I got from the vending machine tasted half expired and didn't even come with the chocolate drizzle I ordered! 6 dollars down the drain for absolute disappointment. I would recommend NOT getting the icream from the machine and instead get some ice cream from the other food outlets!

Phenomenal place with great varieties of great stores. Fun to pass the time shoppers delight. And tons of great deals with great brands. There are small shacks to buy food and drinks. There is enough parking and even security​ patrolling. And the bathrooms are decent.

The Cabazon outlet mall doesn't disappoint and delivers on name brands!!! 👛👜👗👖👚👡💍💄🏷. So if you're in high-end fashion, this is definitely the place!

An excellent outlet experience. Clean with lots of shopping choices and friendly staff

Good selection of stores but the Nike store needs help. The lines are RIDICULOUS, a ton of employees but act like you are bothering them if you ask a question. The women's selection of shoes usually has size 8 to 11.. not everyone has that size of foot it would be nice to see some size 6 and 6 1/2

This is my favorite outlet. It is very big and has lots of luxury boutiques. Prices are good. Most of the stores have extra discounts on National holidays days.

Plenty of trails to choose from, including the PCT and some fun routes to Mt. San Jacinto!

Hiked to the tram area with son. Starting at 4am we made it by noon taking many breaks to love the views. Weren’t prepped to go to peak -another 5 or so miles but will be going again in few weeks,weather permitting to bag that peak!!!!

I visited here in January 2019. While palm springs is desert, the top of mountain was covered with snow. And tram which automatically turns around was fantastic.

Please clean up after your family fun, visits , hikes, drives, and picnics! Enjoy!

Super cool mountain

Visiting my niece and grand nephew. It's beautiful here

The peace of mind and Beauty!!!!!

First time here. Amazing views. A great hiking trail at the back end of the top. The temperature difference is a good 40*F between the bottom and the top, so prepare accordingly if you're going to be hiking. The Ride & Dine pass is definitely worth it. Otherwise, you have different options for food as there are two other restaurants available. Oh, and bring quarters to use the telescopes! I wish I had known that.

What an incredible experience! Absolutely breathtaking vistas surrounded by the gorgeous scenic mountains. At the peak of the mountain is stunning. I just love the view from way up there. It can get a little busy waiting for the team to take you in either direction, but once you get to the top, there's a beautiful hiking trail to conquer before heading back down. I am looking forward to coming back in the near future, especially in the winter.

Come when it raining/ snowing. It's amazing and fun. Cost $30.95 per person round trip (no reservation) Arrived 11 am, there was a line, bought tickets at 12 pm and waited 1.5 hours for the 1:44 pm slot. There is a little park/dirt area with benches at the back (past the cafe), gift shop, and cafe. Small nature trail view hike is 0.75 miles round trip. Opens 10 am There is three floors when you arrive at the top of tram. You exit at the bottom floor to get to the hike. People brought sleds but didn't see anyone using it. Didn't buy tickets ahead of time, arrived at 11 am , parking lots go from A to J. Was slotted for parking H. If you coming in January, bring winter jackets and proper shoes. Shoes will get wet and it's cold. Family friendly, fun to experience.

One of my favorite places to visit for some snow! Honestly, it’s a bit better than going all the way to Big Bear. It’s just more convenient. I went on March and we got to see lots of snow!!!! It was snowing as well!!! So beautiful. As for tickets, online might say their sold out but if you arrive early when they open which is at 10:00am, they sell some tickets until they sell out so make sure to get there early.

It gets pretty packed in the weekends but a definite must for first time Palm Springs visitors. The views are incredible from the top. Things I wish I had known before going: There are a few hiking trails up there. Bring appropriate shoes as they are very rocky. It's a nice place to enjoy a picnic if you bring your own food. Bring a mask if you're uncomfortable being in very close proximity to people while riding up. Tram cars are standing room only and the next person is less than a foot away. There is a 20-30 degree difference in temperature, so bring a jacket. It wasn't too bad in late April. I can imagine it's pretty windy and chilly in the winter. Hope this helps.

Loved the experience! The staff is very friendly, polite and knowledgeable. Would recommend getting there around 7:30-8am if you do not have tickets and need to buy them for the morning. The revolving tram was fun and our little toddler loved it! The view was amazing. We didn't get to venture out into the play area as it was extremely windy for us. We love snow so enjoyed getting to touch it a bit. Will certainly be back in spring to enjoy what else there is to explore.

The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway is a must-visit for anyone who is interested in stunning views, challenging hikes, or simply a unique way to experience the desert. The tram ride is an experience in itself, and the views from the top are simply breathtaking. There are trails for all levels of experience, so you can find something to suit your fitness level. And after a long day of hiking, you can relax and refuel at one of the many restaurants or shops at the top of the mountain.I highly recommend visiting the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway if you are ever in the area. It is an unforgettable experience that you will never forget

Would love to rate this better. That actual tram experience was great. Fabulous staff member and great musical descent coming back in dark (recommend). We booked the tram and dine evening with our two kids. Had a lovely tram ride up, walk around. The film about the tramway was over 20 years old and really needed updating. However, the food in the Pines cafe (including in our ticket) would warrant a 1/5. The service similar. Menu sounded nice but in reality had been sat there for a while. My unfussy 7 year old turned his nose up after trying. The corn on the cob has been in liquid for hours and was revolting. The bread was stale. My beef was inedible. The soda drinks tasted like pipe cleaner. The best bit was the basic salad. Really disappointed. Would not recommend booking the package.

This was our first visit back to the tramway since before the pandemic. We decided to do the ride and dine ticket, which is a great value. The views were fantastic, and we took a short hike in the state park at the top before dinner. Also watched the restored movie of the original tram, The Miracle of Palm Springs. This was our first time taking a return trip at night - we could see the lights of all the desert cities. Overall, it was a great experience.

It was a nice trip. I paid for $15 entrance fee (or parking lot fee) and $31 for the tram ticket. The best thing of the trip was that I could see Palm Springs city from 8,500 ft above. The bad thing was that each tram was super crowded. They tried to arrange few dozens of people into a small round tram. Surrounded by tall people prevented short people like me from seeing the landscape outside (even the floor of the tram could rotate 360 degrees).

I went a couple weeks ago for the very first time! I had a very great time and the view is beautiful! I will for sure be coming back!😍 My visit was last minute planned, so we waited about 2+ hours to get on which is understandable. But it was worth every second!

Our family had a great time at the Aerial Tramway. We had a meal at the summit and took in the views of the valley below. My kids and I played in the snow for over an hour at the summit. We explored through the massive trees and was experience we will truly treasure. I would highly recommend if you're a tourist in the area, check out this place. The views are worth it!

Awesome experience and a unique aerial view of the Desert from 8,514ft. We got tickets at the station on the day. Plenty of parking at $12 per car. The tram was fun, 10-15 min ride, floor revolves while moving. Little daunting but fun. Lovely cafe, restaurant and bar at the summit but not cheap. Plenty of look out areas and hikes to avail of

This tram is such an awesome experience. My other favorite is at Snowbird in Utah; but that tram does not rotate like this tram. The rotating tram gives you a great view up and down this mountain. Don't worry about the rotating floor. It's slow and smooth. At the top of the tram is the Mountain Station which has food and beverage service; including a bar. There is only one negative about the experience and that's the cost of food and beverages. Just like sporting events and amusement parks, this place charges way too much for food and beverage. A small bottle of water is almost $5 and soda/pop is the same. There's a museum type thing on the lower level and food is on the upper level. If you exit on the back side there are trails to walk and hike. It's $12 to park so be prepared to pay. Other than that folks, enjoy an awesome day and get out of the desert heat 🇺🇸

Really nice ride up and very scenic, When you get to the top, there's an 8K' view and a forest to explore. The visitors center is informative, have bathrooms and food in case you forgot your snack. Worth checking out.

Everyone must take this team ride to 8,516 elevation. It is so crazy high and only takes 10 min to get up to the top. Amazing views. Best to go up during the day to hike and then come down in the evening to enjoy the lights of the city below

Highly recommend!! Make sure to buy your tickets online including parking pass and print them-this part saved us a lot of time. We went on a VERY hot day in Palm Springs. The tram ride was crowded, but it rotates so everyone gets a good view at some point. The tram itself is not air conditioned, but the windows open and it moves right along, so you get pretty good airflow - it only took about 10 minutes. We went up at 4:00 and bought the "Ride and Dine" package, which was a great deal. It was at least 35 degrees cooler at the top. Ate dinner early-limited menu but food was fine. Then we looked around the multi-level building with multiple balconies and picked a place to watch the sun go down. We stayed until after sunset and watched the l8ghts of Palm Springs start to twinkle. We rode the tram down about 8:15 and got an even better view of the lights. I really recommend a similar schedule...it was a really magical evening!

This was a great place. We visited on a Thursday, had to wait 2 hours to go on the tram ride. There was a lot we do as we waited for our turn to go on. It's cheaper after 4pm (approx $3 less). The cafeteria hot chocolate was great to keep us warm. Kids loved the short trails. 😍. The wait to go back down was pretty long... approx 1 hour.

What a great way to spend a day. The wait was long but there was enough to keep us occupied while we waited. The ride to the top was fun but the views from the top were the highlight of the day.

Awesome trip on the Aerial Tram from 2,643 feet all the way up to 8,516 feet. The tram ride is a quick 10 minute ride up with trams scheduled every 20 minutes up and down from 10 am until 8 pm. I drove out after work and enjoyed watching the sunset while going up and seeing the city lights at night and enjoying a wonderful dinner at the mountain top restaurant. Great way to end the day on top of the mountain with a cold beer in hand!

Very scenic ride. The tram can feel pretty crowded on a busy day. I rode the tram back down when the crowd was a bit smaller (before sunset) and I enjoyed the ride a bit more that way. The hiking trails at the top are beautiful and I enjoyed the hike. My father, son, and I went during the 1st week of April and got there around 11am. The wait was already 2.5 hrs by 11am. Probably best to go earlier.

What a cool experience and a must do if you visit Palm Springs. Make sure you pack accordingly because it is a severely different temperature at the top. We got to hike though fresh snow which was a magical experience after leaving the desert floor. Don’t be discouraged if the wait time Is long. There is a gift shop, food, drinks, and some beautiful spots outside to spend your time while you wait on your boarding group. We got to there at about 7:40 on a Saturday morning to no car line wait and were able to purchase tickets for the first 8:00 tram up to the top. If you want to avoid crowds I’d suggest the earlier time on the weekends instead of the 10:00 tram during the week. You could also do the after 4pm passes which sounded nice, and look out at the lights of the city as the sun sets. My husband and I had a great experience and would totally go back for our next visit to Palm Springs.

We didn't get tickets in advance and had to wait approx 2 hours to go up but it was totally worth it! The ride up/down itself is very cool with great views. Then up top there's a beautiful forest! Made me feel like I wasn't even in California. Remember to bring warm clothes though as it's cold up top! We ate at the restaurant (Peaks) for lunch which had a very impressive view and had reasonable lunch prices all things considered.

Fun ride up & back, great views and with rotating cars you get to see from all angles. We had 1pm tickets on a Thursday, slower day so parking and getting around was easy. Bus picks up & returns at parking lot (F at least). The snow fall makes the top a winter haven. We didn’t purchase pictures taken (think $35 for 2 + digital access is package + add ons if you want) Worth the $30/ea + $15 parking to see.

Awesome experience to go 8,000 feet from desert level up into the mountains in a slow spinning tram! There can be a bit of a wait on peak days/times but there are cute little trails behind the tram station, a place to eat, a little waterfall and an aerial tram viewing deck. Up on the mountain side, there is a steep path to go down and explore, if so desired, as well as a visitor center and a restaurant. Definitely an experience I recommend!

No words to explain how amazing this place is!! It’s a very surreal experience, and the people who work and volunteer there are wonderful. There are many workers there who were soldiers themselves, and hearing their knowledge is something I’m grateful for. The planes are breathtaking and the displays of knowledge and artifacts engage oneself. They also have a library of Life magazines, how cool! Highly recommended taking anyone there!!

Very impressive array of aircraft and simulators. Kids are free which is especially easy on the wallet. The F-117A is definitely the highlight of the selection. The B-17 was also impressive and the guided tour for the kids was great. Could have spent much more than 2 hours there. Highly recommended for plane buffs and visitors in general.

I used to love going here as a kid, and the place has really grown. We definitely enjoyed our time there. The docents are quite knowledgeable and many are veterans. They have a sizable collection there. We really enjoyed seeing some of the planes fly. You can actually pay to ride around in some of the aircraft. They have adequate parking, so you shouldn't have any issues there. Plus, they also have a number of aircraft out front for you to view for free.

This place is amazing! Such a great location for a flight museum. The view is stunning during sunset! $20 per person, open till 5 pm. So many cool airplanes and the history behind each of them. Very well layout from indoor to outdoor. Highly recommend checking this place out when in PS!

Well appointed aviation museum focused on generations of military and general aircraft. Ample parking space. Visited in the bright July sunshine! What made things interesting were the knowledgeable vets across all exhibits who proudly shared their stories as well as those of the aircraft on display. The outdoor displays were superb too, as was the ‘stealth hangar’ Well stocked souvenir shop. An aviation geek’s paradise! 😊

The Palm Springs Air Museum is a popular aviation museum located in Palm Springs, California in the desert! It houses a vast collection of vintage aircraft and exhibits that showcase the history of aviation. It houses WW2, Korean War, Vietnam War and War on Terror. Great way to learn about their significance in military and aviation history. All planes are in flyable conditions. Coolest airplane is Nighthawk. It's a fascinating place for aviation enthusiasts and history lovers alike! Definitely a fun activity for families and kids!

Absolutely an amazing experience. We were lucky enough to be there when Col. Robert Lilac was there. Each week, the museum opens a plane for guests to sit on the cockpit. Knowledgeable, charming, and informative, we had a wonderful time. The museum is outstanding. It’s filled with treasures that are not to be missed. It makes you proud to be an American to see these artifacts. The museum offers a respite from the heat, with food and air conditioning. Do not come to Palm Springs without a visit. The interactive offerings, the beautiful displays, and the top notch staff make it a once in a lifetime event. Go!!

Great museum with amazing detail. You could spend a full day here going through all the exhibits and displays. Lots to see and do for all ages. You can tell the volunteers and mechanics/engineers have spent a lot of time restoring aircraft. Well worth a visit if you are in the Palm Springs area.

Clean, neat, well curated. I've been to a lot of air museums across the country, and nothing is worse than seeing a bunch of dirty, run-down aircraft with no information signage. That is not a problem at the Palm Springs Air museum! The staff and volunteers are present, and clearly take pride in their treasures. The aircraft are fabulous, and even while in maintenance they are on display, so you can see cowlings removed and neatly arranged, smell the oil and lubricants, and just get the whole experience. Thanks to the staff and volunteers for a few hours of quality plane and history time.

We visited here a few years ago and loved it! Not only did they have a huge selection of WW2 planes they had lots of post war planes that were really impressive and well kept. They also had docents that would guide you and tell you all about the aircrafts add other memorabilia. I recommend this for anyone interested in aircraft. Simply fascinating. UrbanCowgill January 2019

2022-Oct. Lots of parking. The staff are really nice. There is a Cafe, souvenir shop, flight simulator (extra $25 for about 10 minutes) and restrooms inside. Lots of war planes that was beautifully maintained! Please give a thumbs up if this review helped you. Have a great visit!

When I told a friend I was coming here he suggested this museum. When he told me you could tour the inside of a B17 I was ready to go! This place has an amazing collection of planes from WWII to modern times. It also has a large staff of knowledgable volunteers than know their stuff about them. The walk through the B17 was truly humbling, what these incredible young men did to preserve our way of life. The other highlight was the F-117 Stealth Fighter. too many other spectacular planes and exhibits to mention. If you are an aviation buff like me this needs to be on your bucket list!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Palm Springs Aerospace Museum and I cannot say enough good things about my experience. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted by friendly and knowledgeable staff who were eager to share their love for aviation. The museum itself is a treasure trove of aviation history, with an impressive collection of aircraft and exhibits that span the centuries. From the Wright Brothers' first flight to the cutting-edge technology of modern jets, every era of aviation is beautifully represented here. One of the highlights of my visit was the chance to step inside some of the aircraft and experience what it must feel like to be a pilot. Being able to sit in the cockpit of a fully restored vintage plane was a dream come true for any aviation enthusiast. The museum also offers a variety of interactive displays and simulators that allow visitors to get a hands-on experience of what it's like to fly. From flight simulators to virtual reality experiences, there was something for everyone, regardless of age or level of interest. The staff at the museum are clearly passionate about their work and their dedication shows. They were more than happy to answer any questions I had and took the time to explain the history and significance of each aircraft. Their enthusiasm was infectious and made my visit even more enjoyable. Another aspect that impressed me was the attention to detail in the museum's exhibits. The aircraft were meticulously restored and displayed in a way that allowed visitors to fully appreciate their beauty and historical significance. The museum also had a great selection of information boards and signage that provided context and a deeper understanding of the exhibits. In addition to the impressive collection of aircraft, the museum also featured rotating exhibits and special events. This meant that even if you have visited before, there is always something new and exciting to discover. Overall, my visit to the Palm Springs Aerospace Museum was an incredible experience. The combination of friendly staff, stunning exhibits, and interactive displays made for a truly memorable day. Whether you're a die-hard aviation enthusiast or simply curious about the world of flight, this museum is a must-visit. I highly recommend it and can confidently give it a well-deserved 5 stars.

I was a great place to visit with a couple of friends as they are history and aircraft enthusiasts. There were only a few staff there but they were very informative and friendly. I was expecting to stay there for about 90 mins, but we ended up nearly 4 hours in total. We loved the fact you could walk and touch the planes, and there were a lot of them!

This museum is just incredible. If you have family that were veterans and served, there is an incredible pull to what they went through and such a feeling you get. It's indescribable. The planes and all air crafts were mouth dropping. The artwork and symbolic drawings in the planes were beautiful. The members who served and survivors from wars were all so moving. There is so much history. It was such an honor to visit. We loved it.

Way bigger than I expected, thought this would be a quick stop and spent almost 3 hours here! They have a sizeable collection of planes including an F-117 which was amazing to see in person! They also had a B-17 that you could board and climb through, and they offer rides on a variety of aircraft including a P-51. Though rides were not in the budget it was really cool to see the planes actually flying. Definitely worth a trip, may have to come back and splurge on a flight someday!

Great experience. Very helpful volunteers. I actually spent about 3 hours here. An informative diorama about Pearl Harbor. Lots and lots of planes. They have a great WW2 exhibit, a women in flight exhibit. They even have a Walt Disney plane exhibit.

The Palm Springs Air Museum offers an enriching experience for both kids and adults alike. The abundance of World War history, especially surrounding the pilots and crews of the B-17, is truly captivating. The volunteers are incredibly helpful, enhancing the overall visit with their knowledge and assistance. Having recently watched "Masters of the Air," the experience was even more profound, gaining a deeper appreciation for the sacrifices made during WWII. With so much to explore, it's advisable to allocate a few hours to fully immerse oneself in the museum's exhibits. Overall, a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and families alike.

Went here yesterday with my nephew who is a commercial airline pilot. We loved it. There are so many classics and beautifully restored planes and the volunteer staff are all so helpful and knowledgeable. This really is a first class air museum - definitely worth a visit.

This is an amazing experience, the guides are extremely knowledgeable and fun. The planes and exhibits are in fabulous shape. This is truly a spot you have to visit and support. I am amazed at what these veterans and teenagers went through for our country. It helped me to have a different feeling and meaning, "Thank you for your service."

Definitely a Must!! Huge variety of top-notch, rare planes, helicopters and cars. They are one of a few museums to have a Stealth 117 Nighthawk airplane and a B-17!! A wonderful collection. They also have magnificent, knowledgeable, friendly docents around each exhibit area! (Plan accordingly, a lot of outdoor planes to see, might be Hot during certain months.) Enjoy, and appreciate those who served.

Very nice museum with many war planes and showcases the history behind them. It had a f14 and a stealth plane f-117 as well. Those 2 were the highlights for me. Very friendly staff.

Long-time-visitor of Palm Springs, first-time-visitor of the PS Air Museum. We visited upon opening (10a) on a Sunday - which afforded us no wait to get in, and tons of attention from the friendly staff. Each of the volunteer guides made us feel like we were VIPs, especially our 2-yr-old who got a sticker-wings around every corner. HIGHLIGHTS: 1) We got to see several vintage planes actually take-off and land during our visit. 2) we found old cockpits and vehicles that our 2yr old could climb into, he loved it.

Breathtaking. We came up on mopeds from Cap Rock- about 5 miles. The view happened to be clear and expansive this day. From one side, we could see all the way to the Salton Sea.

Phenomenal scenic view, excellent for photos. Be aware of aggressive bees.

If you ever have the opportunity to visit Joshua National Park, make sure you make time and save a bit of your energy to watch the sunset 🏜 at Key's view, you will feel as if you are in heaven. You can see the Coachella valley, Palm Springs, and even the San Andreas fault in front of you. One of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen in my life.Joshua National Park

You definitely want to check out the spot on a clear day. You can see for miles and miles and miles and you are on top of the world, it is very windy. Definitely want to have a hat or ear covering of some sort. Best sunset spot you'll find

This is an amazing view. You have to drive a bit to get to the spot. It's definitely worth the drive. On a good day you can see Salton sea and may be Mexico. Very peaceful and serene. Tranquility at it's best.

There's a spectacular viewpoint of the Coachella Valley from here. There's a medium-sized parking lot here with a toilet. We were unable to use the toliet because it was infested with bees. This viewpoint is handicap accessible.

This is a good place to see the desert valleys and the surrounding mountains. We captured the strong sand storm in the valley around Palm Springs.

This is a wonderful view point. We can see Palm Springs from this point with binoculars. We can also see the San Andreas Fault in front of us. Even clouds blocked most of the west view, but the sunlight shone colorful rays and painted the sky colorful, it felt like we were in heaven!

Oh My! What a phenomenal view of Joshua Tree National Park. A short 10 minute drive off the main route and you go from the valley filled with amazing Joshua Trees to the top of a mountain with a spectacular view of the entire region. In the winter time you can see several snow capped mountains as well as the Salton Sea. This is a very popular place! So parking can can difficult. Be warned if you are planning to view the sunset... get there about 45 minutes EARLY! Or you may not find a place to park.

Great views of the valley, we were there mid morning and there were several people visiting. Still some parking but I can see this spot getting busy!! I loved the overview maps explaining the view, well worth the drive!!

BEAUTIFUL outlook - but also extremely windy and cold in October. The wind was so bad during my visit that you could barely walk up to the outlook. Walking into the wind felt like I was about to gain some lift. The desert dust added a unique hazy look to the mountains though. A wonderful view of the San Jacinto mountain. Definitely recommend driving up here if you’re visiting Joshua Tree NP and only have a few hours to spare.

Easy access to a 5,100ft overlook. Road to Keys View is nice but parking limited. I felt lucky getting a spot as it was about 90% full. I noticed people would get there, get a photo & leave pretty quickly so if the parking was full a spot should open up quickly.

Mind blowing views from this place. The haze between the mountain is everything. The little walk to the top is paved and walkable. 100% recommended to not miss if you’re coming to Joshua Tree National park.

Photos can’t do anything like this justice. This is one of those places you have to experience with your own eyes. Sunsets here are proposal-worthy. Worth it, no question.

It's a different side of Joshua Tree National Park. You will have a view of Coachella Valley. It was my 2nd time and still amazing and still cold 🥶 😄. There was a cold breeze from the top viewing area. It is beautiful views up there though.

This is the best place in Joshua Tree to see the sunset. The view is absolutely gorgeous. At this time of year there is snow on the mountains and this is a beautiful contrast to the desert landscape. The trail to the viewpoint is paved and very short but it is very steep and could be an issue to people with mobility. However, there is still a beautiful viewpoint that can be seen from the parking lot. If you do go to the top be careful of very high winds. I've visited this place a few times and it can get extremely windy. Parking can also get full quickly especially during the sunset. I would recommend getting there a bit early to get a spot.

You could spend an entire day at the Hall of Horrors and Keys View. Our family, including 4 young children, spent the day exploring the Hall and had a great time. The ones who weren't tired and ready to head home, went to Keys for some of the most beautiful views I've ever seen.

Visited in April 2015. Hitting the spot early morning at 6 am was truly worth it. The amazing sunrise painted the stunning vista at Keys View. From this vantage point, you can take in sweeping vistas of the Coachella Valley, including the shimmering Salton Sea, the rugged Santa Rosa Mountains, and the towering San Jacinto Peak.

Keys View is the best place to watch the sunset in Joshua Tree National Park. You can also see the stunning panoramic mountain view. There is an easy 0.2-mile loop paved trail. We reached there just before sunset. We sat on a rock and enjoyed the peaceful sunset. The single Joshua Tree from the parking lot gives the absolutely beautiful scenery that will be in your mind for a long time.

We’ve been to 4 or 5 hikes in Joshua tree now and happy valley is one of our family favorites. It’s an easy 1 mile loop, although our hike turned into about 1.5 miles due to the amount of climbing we did. This is such a fun hike with so much variety in what you see and can do. There’s limitless possibilities in bouldering. Our two kids, ages 10 and 12, loved climbing and exploring. We saw families with toddlers who were running and climbing off steam. Try and get there early as the parking lot tends to fill up by 10. We got there at 10:30 and we’re lucky someone was leaving. The rangers were redirecting people to another lot when we left at 12:30. There are pit toilets and many picnic tables for lunch at the parking lot. Easy drive in and out as well. Take sunscreen and water and enjoy the peace and calm of Joshua Tree!

All Trails: 1.34miles, 118ft elevation gain, 56 mins. This is awesome trail! Not too difficult and saw two park volunteers hiking as well and they were very knowledgeable. Lots of prickly pear cacti which I loved! Tons of places to do some boulder climbing or watching the real rock climbers 😅 There is no shade! Bring sunscreen, more water than you think you need (1L/hour/person), and layers. A bunch of variety of cacti and we found the “throne” of hidden valley 😂 Have lunch at the picnic area after your hike! This is a very busy attraction! We arrived at 9:50am and got what seemed to be the last parking spot. Left around 12:30pm and there was a ranger at the entrance not allowing people to enter.

I loved this "trail." It really isn't a trail, more of a gentle walk through nature. It is short, well-marked, and doesn't have much in the way of elevation gains/declines. So if you're looking for a true hike, look elsewhere. That said, this little walk packs a ton of beautiful sights in a really small area. You're sort of in a bowl here, with rocks surrounding you on all sides. Inside the bowl there are really interesting rock formations all around you, and the flora here is very different than you see in most other areas of the park. Apparently this area is a bit of a microclimate due to it's geological features, and there are tons of signs throughout the park explaining the reasons for this. It is an amazing combination of easy walking, beautiful scenery, and signs containing really good information about what you're seeing. The one downside is this was the most crowded area I saw in the park with the exception of Skull Rock, so you will be sharing the trail with hundreds of people. But unlike Skull Rock and some of the other crowded areas of the park, the crowds here didn't really bother me. This was the highlight of the park for me, without a doubt. Although there are other hiking trails I'd recommend over this one, there is no other attraction in the park I'd recommend more highly.

Easy hike (1 mile loop trail). We went there early ~ before 9am and easily found the parking lot. Would recommend to arrive early to avoid the traffic… saw long line cars waiting to enter the gate on the way back. This hike is suitable for families, mostly flat, rocks for kids to climb (not dangerous). Be aware of the cold. It was end of Dec when we were here and we wish we would have worn beanie and gloves.

Easy loop with some really great views of the rocks and Joshua Trees. Make sure you wear lots of sunscreen when you're here! One of the first stops on the trip and one of the better ones as well!

$30 to enter Joshua Tree National Park with a car, valid for 7 days. There are bathrooms and porta potties right when you enter the park. This is an easy trail if you stay on the flat path. My friend, and I ended up climbing over some rocks, and it was fun but quite difficult and not for children (8 out of 10 difficulty at times).

Plenty of toilet paper!!! We got here early after turning away due to crowds the day before. Nice quick early morning hike with great light and fun views of rock climbers. As with every spot in the park, this gets filled up and parking becomes very difficult. We took the opposite direction on the loop and it was nice having folks pass us in the opposite direction rather than following or being followed.

Hidden Valley trail was recommended to me by a ranger at the Visitors centre. I arrived later in the afternoon and wanted to 'see it all in a short time before the sun went down'. This trail delivered. The trail is a loop that starts at the carpark and makes it around a relatively easy area within the park. You get the see the best of Joshua Tree national park. The Joshua trees are very unique and unlike any other trees that I have seen elsewhere. The fact that there are SO many of them and ONLY them is a really cool sight to see. This track will take you around some very interesting rock structures that are unique to the park. Depending on the time of day, you may see amateur and professional rock climbers taking up the challenge. The park can get HOT in summer so be sure to take more water than what you think you will need and stick to the track.

One of the easiest trails to do. Lots of Joshua trees to see and good scenic points to take pictures. The trail is big so we went half way through and came back. NOTE: PLEASE CARRY A LOT OF WATER.

I love this area of JT so much parking space, picnic tables, restrooms and a lot to explore around hidden valley. You will even catch a glimpse of some rock climbers in this area. I Captured Jaime & Yesenia engagements here at the hidden valley trail.

Easy hike with a clear path. Some rock trails but they are well-defined. Lots of nature to see but very little shade. Keep an eye out of lizards, birds, kangaroo rats and ground squirrels. Kinda cool being surrounded in the valley.

You'll be immersed in the tranquility of the hidden valley, shielded from the outside world by towering rock walls. The unique geological features and the untouched beauty of Hidden Valley make it a captivating experience. Whether you're seeking a peaceful stroll or a place to connect with nature, this trail offers it all. Don't forget your camera, as there are plenty of opportunities to capture memorable moments amidst the breathtaking scenery.

Nice place to hike for 1-2 hours. Thieves used to hide their stolen cows in this valley and got this name. We saw two groups of rock climbers on two sides of the valley. We saw a few big birds and quite a few smaller birds.

Great hike, my wife and i were out there at sun up....as the sun came up the shadows and lite wer neat to see. It was cold when we first got there, but once we got moving we warmed up quite a bit. Joshua tree is an amazing place and we are already planning on going back

A beautiful trail. We did this 7am in early November. It could not have been more pleasant and wonderful. We took time to walk around. We are not professional hikers by any means. It was the perfect length with one mile loop that is easy to follow.

This trail has a mix of flat terrain to walk and rock steps to traverse, with minor changes in elevation. You can expect to see some wildlife. Mostly birds, lizards, and desert rodents. The blooming cacti were really pretty.

This is definitely one of the best bang for your buck trails at Joshua Tree. I haven't been to them all, but so far If I only had time to do one, this would be it.

A super short and easy 1 mile loop trail. It took me less than an hour to complete with several stops. There aren’t too many Joshua trees on this one but the rock formations and various cacti are cool. A bit chilly in October in the shade. The wind was also blowing hard. A great first introduction trail to Joshua Tree NP.

As you drive up and see a few dozen cars, you think "yeah... Hidden... Riiiggghhhtt" (sarcasm). But then you get it and start going down the paths that break off everywhere, seeing hikers, people rappelling,and kids playing on rocks on to of rocks. Then you climb the rocks and see the amazing view, truly a Hidden Valley. 🤩😍

We went here for the bouldering they had and also did a short loop trail. The bouldering area was a bit hard to find but there was plenty of people guiding us the correct way. There’s also a little tiny sign showing you which way to go!

This trail has a variety of things to enjoy. There are petroglyphs, wildlife, the dam, cool rock formations, cacti and Joshua Trees. For those who love to climb rocks there's plenty of opportunities for that. The most challenging part of this trail is at Barker Dam; you'll need to traverse some stone steps and such. We saw a snake in some bushes by the trail.

No water as of Nov 2023. The hike is 1.1 mile long loop

Great place to visit, lots of rocks, trees and nature. I always love coming to this place gives me peace and tranquility. I would highly recommend you visit this place.

Very impressive rock formations and a fun trail. It’s short tho only like 1 mile but worth it. It’s one of the prettiest spots unfortunately no water when I went but still impressive and beautiful with the exposed areas. A bit crowded since it’s one of the most popular hikes.

Dam is completely dry. I could only see water marks on the rock. Trail was great though. Unique rock formations and plants all around. Trail direction can be slightly confusing so wouldn't go when it's dark. Plenty of parking space!

Great hike, amazing views of the desert and rock formations.

Don’t trust beautiful pictures😁 We were there in October and it was drought. Easy trail, also you can move forward and see petroglyphs, but then need to hike longer to the parking lot.

We visited here around 11 AM. It was quite hot. Dam was completely dried but trail was very good. Attached lots of pictures of the trail. Need 45 minutes to complete the trail and come back. Should visit here if visiting Joshua Park. Joshua Park is quite big and entry is 30$ per vehicle (if you don't have annual pass for US national park which is 80$). I prefer to buy annual pass since there are so many beautiful national parks in US.

So stunning at sunset. Great view for star gazing as well. 🫶🏻 great place to stop by at Joshua tree park

My first time to look at the Cholla Cactus! What an exotic and mystic beauty!! **Never touch or step on the Cholla!** It is indescribably hurting!!!!! Watch your step while not on the wooden trail.

One of the most magical places on this planet. You see nature's magnificent work at its best. Hundreds and thousands of cholla cactus standing proudly in the windy air of Joshua Tree National Park. The best time to visit is during sunset or sunrise when the entire place is cast with the golden light of the desert sun. Now, be careful to keep a safe distance from these 'teddy bear' cacti and don't try to wander off the trail.

If you’re going anywhere in Joshua Tree, make sure you add the Cholla Cactus Garden to your list! We went a little before sunset and it was perfect because you could see the Cholla start to glow more and more as the light dims. Incredible experience and pretty easy to find parking around 5pm.

Went at sunrise and it was totally worth it. Amazing views. The golden fiery look is unlike any other. Worth the morning drive!

I have mixed feelings about the Cholla Cactus Garden. On one hand, the chollas are absolutely stunning and unlike any other cactus I've seen before. But on the other hand, they're incredibly dangerous. One wrong move and you could end up with a painful and difficult-to-remove cactus spines stuck in your skin. I always try to be extra careful when I'm around them, but I still have nightmares about accidentally falling into a chollas.

Really a pretty place to stop in Joshua Tree National Park! The sun hitting the cacti was so pretty and the colors are lovely. They're serious when they say don't touch them though, the spines will really stick you. We loved visiting.

A cute small looped trail, perfect for the family. It does feel far from the other trails and attractions at Joshua Tree.

Good trail to wonder in the desert and admire this amazing plants. It may get bit too hot during summer or during afternoon. I would suggest carrying a small water bottle just in case. Also, please do not touch the plants as thorns are sharp and can hurt.

This place within Joshua Tree NP is an incredible natural phenomenon within a park full of amazing natural phenomenon. I recommend the drive down to this spot.

Beautiful forest of interesting cacti. Short loop through the garden. Good secluded stop towards the southern side of the park.

It was beautiful. Make sure to be before because of parking and because the glowing starts just before the sun touches the cactus. If the sun touches the cactus directly pictures aren’t going to be so good.

Beautiful specially in the evening around sunset. The unique plants in the nature. They have limited parking. Make sure you don’t go off the trail/wooden path. The thorn are dangerous and can give you a lot of trouble. So avoid touching or stepping on them. They penetrate through shoes and clothes as well.

This is my FAVORITE spot in Joshua Tree National Park!! This 0.2 mile flat loop is gorgeous, fascinating, and mesmerizing garden full of Cholla (Choy-ya). I would go at sunrise or sunset because the Cholla look like they are glowing and it’s so magical! This is a must stop!! Parking is minimal. We got there at 7:20am and the parking lot was half full.

Cholla Garden is a mesmerizing enclave that transports you to a different planet, offering an unparalleled experience unlike any other place in California. To catch the breathtaking sunrise, an early start is essential, with a recommendation to arrive at least 30 minutes before the scheduled time. Spending a minimum of an hour in this enchanting landscape allows you to capture the captivating transformation of colors in the surroundings – before, during, and after the sunrise. Each moment presents a unique palette that makes for stunning photographs. While navigating through the cactuses, it's crucial to walk with caution. The spikes on these plants are akin to a formidable machine, easily attaching themselves to clothing and causing significant discomfort. Despite this prickly challenge, the awe-inspiring beauty of Cholla Garden makes the experience well worth the early wake-up call and careful exploration.

Amazing place to visit. There's so much cholla that you can just keep walking. Just be careful not to get lost as the parking lot does disappear as you walk further in. There are a bunch of cactus balls on the floor that can cling into you. The wind can blow needles onto you as well. If you stay on the trail provided, you will be okay. If you go off it, just make sure you don't get prick. I didn't see any bees when I was there in late March during the day. There were lizards and birds flying around.

This place is amazing. One of the best spots on the Joshua Tree National Park. It’s the first place we went to. It’s a beautiful garden of cactuses. You can walk around and take pictures. Be careful with little kids as there are a lot of fallen cactuses on the ground and you could easily get hurt.

Gorgeous little cactus garden! Take the quarter mile loop and enjoy seeing sweeping views of the valley. Parking might be tight during busy times of year, but also not very busy closer to sunset (when we went) it’s worth it!

Well worth stopping here to walk the path and see (and take photos, esp during sunset or sunrise). Pronounced "choy-ya" (NOT cho-la). Could spend 15 - 60 mins here depending on how much time you want to take photos

Magnificent place to stay the casino is fun the water slide is awesome the boat launch is nice and the parking area by it is well lit and easy to see from the rooms. the water slide is huge. The kitchen was under renovation but the grille restaurant had a limited menu that was still very accommodating and the continental breakfast was impressive. Only complaint is the strict mask rules

Machines seem very tight. Not a lot of people there. Food options are good hence the 4 Stars. We went for prime rib night and it was decent. Not 5 Stars but good for the price. I do not recommend the scalloped potatoes though. I grew up eating scalloped potatoes and those were the driest ones I ever had. Not very good. We are trying the fried chicken tonight. Fingers crossed 🤞 .

My bf and I are regulars here at Bluewater and we love it! The casino pays out pretty good especially for it being on the smaller side of most casinos. The staff are wonderful and it's just an all around good vibe when you come here.

A nice hotel to stay at, I wouldn't say the best though, the rooms were nice with a little balcony, the location is just a little drive off the 95, and grocery stores are just little ways away. The Bluewater Grille was okay there, I got the Patty Melt there, and it tasted like frozen hamburger patties from Wal-mart, and the fries were okay, under seasoned much. The main deal is the beautiful pool! The pool is excellent place for kids and adults to have fun! There is a slide for anyone to go down, and the staff down there are helpful when you have questions! They also have a good variety of casino games, so adults can have fun too! There is also a dock for your boats to park, so if you don't wanna go to the pool, you could always take your boat down and use it, cause the casino is right next to the river! Overall, the hotel wasn't a bad place! It's a nice place to stay if you need a quick place to rest or if you just feel like going somewhere!

The place was nice. My first time there and just stopped in for a bite and to play a bit. Food was good in the restaurant, but it took a long time to get it, but it may may have been that I ordered a steak. Prices were good, and we will go back again.

This casino is fantastic because there's no smoking!!!! It has a great pool with a slide! I love the staff and everyone was super helpful. The 4 stars is only because the food could have been better. Our steaks had a lot of fat and gristle and my mom's chicken fried steak's sauce tasted like it was made from a powder. I would definitely come back again!

We were pleasantly surprised, last time in 2019 it was not a great experience. Had the all-you-can-eat spaghetti special and it was really good! Great friendly staff in the restaurant; the staff at 'THE Club' desk could be a bit more enthusiastic...fun slots with lots of variety.

This place has absolutely disgusting rooms. We came here for my husband's birthday so I booked a junior suite for a bigger space. When we walked into the room it smelled like filthy dirty laundry. The carpet was so badly stained and dirty that we would not walk on it barefoot. The room shown on the website IS NOT WHAT IS SOLD TO YOU. The desk chair was missing, there was one patio chair, one nightstand was missing (so items had to sit on filthy carpet) the two casual arm chairs were gone and the bed sagged in the middle. We went and spoke to management and they refunded us one night and upgraded our next night to the "honeymoon premiere suite" she had me look at the room online beforehand and it looked amazing. Well, upon packing up and moving rooms we entered a room that looked NOTHING LIKE the room she showed us. And this room was FILTHY TOO! We have decided to just deny charge on card. Deli employees are incompetent to the fullest extent. They burned me with hot coffee as he didn't know how to secure a lid. No apology, no empathy, no towel to clean off my arms and clothes. Just stood there looking as stupid as he was. They don't even know how to make the drinks they sell. Slots also stink. Boring, not one person won a dime while we were there. I see lots of complaints about this in the reviews. Will never be back. Place is horrid now. Photos of both rooms. The blue carpet, filthy dining table legs, spilled food, broken microwave and grey dirty couches are the honeymoon premier suite they upgraded us to.

We always stay here when coming to Parker. It’s our family vacation spot for the past 5 years and we usually would never question staying at this hotel. After this last time, we won’t again. First off the Wi-Fi was down so the whole week we didn’t have service because it’s in a dead zone. The rooms cleanliness was absolutely horrible. There were spiderwebs filled with bugs all over. There were baby black ants EVERYWHERE. We couldn’t get anything but sheets for our hide a bed for our kids to sleep with. There was broken glass down the whole hall to our room. We filled our trash, because we were there for 6 days, and asked for a new bags and got tiny ones brought to us. We were just so disappointed in how down hill the management has gone down in the last couple years. Those things never use to happen. Little things make big differences.

I went to spend the day watching football. I had been there several times before and enjoyed free parking. However this time I was charged 27 dollars to park my RV and was told to park in a certain area that wasn't as close to the entrance. No amenities were offered, just a spot in a parking lot. If you are in a car or a van, you aren't charged.

Place is now a toilet. After Covid, nothing has improved. It just got worse. Many machines have buttons that don't light or function in any way. Never have enough items for promos. Seems the more friendlier employees are gone. Hopefully, to better jobs. A gold mine going to waste.

Bluewater Grill: Their daily specials are cheap if you're a club member, everything else on the menu was about average priced. We tried the all-you-can-eat spaghetti for $7.99 and basically it was worth about $7.99. Nothing special, but not terrible either. The utensils were all plastic, making it feel a little cheaper. They are really strict about covid precautions, so that's probably why they're using plastic. The staff was friendly and made the experience more enjoyable.

We went to try an afternoon special, but it was potroast. Not our favorite, so we had one of their 1/2 lb hamburgers instead. They always do a good job on that. It's just not near as good of a price as they used to have for that item. The fries were good also. We'll go back when we're in the area.

Mostly everyone that worked there had a frown on their face bad attitude I felt like something was in the water out that way. The cafe terrible service terrible. The bartender not sociable , another frown. They erased our name on the reservations for our Boat slip But luckily there was one left. They don't give you drinks When you gamble. The pool attendant did an exceptional job and I must say the maid was great. I must say the only reason I will go there is to slip the boat I will never eat there again.

This hotel was recommended by Nick with Wet and Wyld Watersports. The room was very clean and comfortable. The Bluewater Grille restaurant was very nice. The hotel has an indoor pool with a waterside which was great fun for me my daughter and granddaughter. I would recommend this place!

Was there for the Boat Races thanksgiving weekend. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were nice, good view of the river/marina. Cantina had good food. Didn't get the chance to eat at the restaurant.

Lovely. Overnight RV . Dry camp, but it has food, restrooms and slots 👍Get a players card, and get a little free play. There is a charge for RV overnight. $27 with a players card. Odd, as there's so much free dry camping on BLM land nearby. Had to revise my review. 🤷‍♀️ Nice dog stop. 1st time there, I will be back.

Ate breakfast at The Grille. Food was good, but the waitress we had was terrible. Asked for a refill of coffee 4 times and never got it. Saw the bloody Mary advertised on their menu and online for $5 and when we got the bill, it was $6. Waitress said they'd fix it at the register. They said they just work here and couldn't do anything. Talked to the manager and she said that's been the price for a year now and wouldn't change our bill. Well then, how about you change the ad then! False advertising, and it doesn't seem to bother them.

Clean rooms, decent prices and solid food. If you're staying in Parker it's the best place to stay. Beautiful indoor pool. Good variety of casino games. There is also a marina and movie theater.

We liked staying here at the RV park. The spaces are a irregular size wise and the layout of the park is a bit quirky but the location is good, amenities are good and the staff is friendly and helpful. Office hours seem irregular so keep trying if they don't answer the phone. The Casino is smoke free, has restaurants and a movie theater with attractive pricing. $5.00 senior movie day is every day! The deli has a pretty good burger and fries for $5.00 too. And it's right on the river. I hope to stay there again next year.

4 of us stayed 3 nights up to New Year’s Eve. Had a great time. All staff that we encountered were pleasant even when busy Rooms were clean and comfy. Great shower and bed. Food was great and reasonably priced. Gambling is Gambling. Pool and hot tub were working fine and clean. People that wrote bad reviews must have stayed in a different place We will be back again

This is the second time we tried the restaurant. The first time service was lousy , we were over charged and food was incredibly dry. Decided to give it another chance and had to wait 67 minutes after we ordered for food. Food was OK but not worth an hour wait when most tables were empty. A neighboring table had a dog on it and not a single employee asked the people to put the dog off the table. Not sure if it's worth another try to get a good meal here.

Awful establishment booked online and was denied because I came in from the beach in a tank top I suppose or possibly because of my race not sure but two valid state identifications cards was not enough evidence to book a room here, I've never felt so judged and disrespected by an establishment by the big lady up front with the pirate walk, horrendous personality to have up front supposedly welcoming guests she should have her awful judging personality somewhere hidden in the back or cleaning toilets.

This is a small casino so don't expect a lot of slot machines, with that said I did win a few hundred dollars and this was my first time at Bluewater Resort and Casino. They do have a gift shop and a Cafe. The overall vibe was decent, I didn't stay at the motel so I have no clue about the rooms. When passing through Arizona I will stop again I have no complaints about this casino. One other thing they do have plenty of on-site parking for big rigs, RVs etc.

What an adventure!! The road in is heavily washboarded and has some "fun" spots. Sure, you can do it in a car, but you'll wish you didn't. If you see a line behind you, please pull over so we can all pass. This place is huge with 2 bars (at least one full bar) plus 2 food stand options. We got there at noon, the parking lot was half full. Lines at every stand. Hard to find shaded seating with dogs but if it's just a few people you shouldn't have a problem! Live music is good, people were dancing! The views out here are gorgeous, the entire place is wonderful! Paid $24 for strawberry funnel cake and garlic fries. Was $7.50 for a champagne mimosa, I passed. We brought water (and you should, too!) What a party!

One of a kind place to visit. 5 mile of rough road going in and same road going out. We came prepared so it was all good. They are only open on weekends from 12p-6pm and they are closed on certain months. Food was delicious and the bar has plenty to drink. Lots of friendly people to talk to. The place is in the middle of the desert and it's very unique. You can ride your ATV around the place. They have live music which added a great atmosphere to enjoy a beer or two with your food. Highly recommended to visit.

Neat place! It is a great place to gather with friends; the road getting there is rough, depending on what you are driving. Slow & steady it takes about 30 minutes for the 5 miles. I recommend visiting at least once. We ate a hamburger 🍔, nothing fancy just meat & bun 😆 but the grilled burger had a real good flavor. People there were friendly and greeted us.

Great place the owners are good folks too. Great food, drinks and entertainment. Lots of fun to look at the different rides that come and visit. Killer trails in and out OR fallow the graded dirt road in out but that’s no fun

What a cool place to visit! The food was great (albeit pricey), the live music was good, and the venue itself is fun, unique, and gives you plenty to see. It is a long dusty ride to get there, though, that requires all wheel drive at a minimum! I look forward to going back again next year.

Sooo worth the drive out here! The food was delicious and the drinks were strong and so good! The live band was amazing and there's such a fun and lively atmosphere. We will definitely be returning!!

One of the coolest bars I have been to! I would recommend riding in on a side by side if possible! Any type if vehicle can make it out to this amazing venue. Get here early and hang out. My son loved climbing the rocks! We could sit and watch him and the band at the same time! Bring cash!

Fun trip, a must for anyone down around Parker Lake Havasu City. The road is a washboard dirt road accessible by any vehicle; cars will have a little slower drive. Great atmosphere, drinks, & friendly staff. The bar is cans & bottles, nothing is on tap. Love how rustic it is. Many places to sit so if close to the band is not your thing look around and you will find seats above or to the right of the bar. Take cash

Very cool and quirky bar in the desert. The life band was great. We had a great time. The road is a bit rough. The issue is not, that you need a 4x4, but it has a lot of wash board. So a 4x4 is not needed, but it would be not good with a very low clearance vehicle of any kind!!!!

Very interesting place. 5 miles down an unpaved road. A large outside bar with a band.

It was definitely worth the 2 1/2 hour drive to get there. Next time we will get there earlier and camp out overnight to get two days worth. The food was decent and the band was great. It was a perfect, beautiful sunny day. If you’re in the area and don’t mind going off-road a bit, definitely check this place out. It’s so unique and really cool.

What a cool and unexpected experience! The view is insane! And the journey there is an experience in itself.I am looking forward to returning! This is a MUST Try! I have a challenge for all of you. I have included a picture of a cactus. The challenge is to find it and get a photo of it.

This place is great!!! Stuck out in the middle of the desert miles from anywhere, so cool, pack up your quad and sandrail and head out into the desert 🏜️

Went for the day and had a great time. The band was a lot of fun and played great songs. We had some beers and relaxed while enjoying the nice weather in the huge outside seating area.

Cool place to see and great experience! Totally off grid bar, well organized, clean restrooms. Bands playing for entertainment. Food and drinks are reasonably priced considering they are in the middle of nowhere!

Great experience I would definitely recommend food is great and make sure to look around because the menu is bigger than the first options you see . Try to get there before 3pm so you can fully enjoy the food and drinks everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. Just remember alcohol is in the left side of the entrance and food is on the far right side when you enter . Finding everything is somewhat confusing if you have never been because it’s not like other places like walk in and have a hostess or if you just set down they ain’t coming definitely walk up to the window and order and don’t be scared to ask information they are extremely helpful. The meat fries confused me but was easily explained. Wish I had of had time to try the dessert but they was closing early on the day we could go . Also if you have an atv definitely take it but if not the drive through the old road is not to bad I would recommend if you don’t have a 4x4 atleast an suv or an easy terrain driving vehicle. I would suggest if you get drunk hang out and don’t drive back it could be scary lol.

We had a great time here. Beautiful scenery, great music, & good! Make sure you have cash. Totally off grid means no cards or arms!

One of the best museums in the Valley! And underrated, I wish I have found out about it sooner. Their exhibits are really cool. They have a town reconstruction in the lower level with a hologram. Their art collection is gorgeous, and their location in Wickenburg is perfect, you can plan for dinner within a block away and some shopping too. A must visit for those interested in the western heritage of Arizona!

We started off looking at all the local art on the main floor which was amazing. But once you go downstairs you’re transported back in time with very interactive exhibits. The museum is not huge so it won’t take you all day to get through it. I think we spent 90 minutes looking around.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. We went Memorial Day weekend and was granted free entry due to veteran status. Lots of history with some old relics, brought back some childhood memories.

BEST place to see western art pieces! I definitely did not expect any of what I saw in the museum. The museum is pretty large with different exhibits. The sculptures are genius and so are the paintings! The downstairs was also incredibly interesting. The different displays they had give you some insight on the town of Wickenburg and its beginnings and was so insightful.

We saw a new display of western art by all women artists. The art was for sale as well. Just beautiful.

A cool museum dedicated to the history of Wickenburg and the mining and ranching of the area. The top part has art, and exhibitions about Wickenburg, while the bottom is a street-level section of "old" Wickenburg, with a general store, ranch house, and a series of display models about Wickenburg events, the first mines, ranching, the Wickenburg massacre, etc. This is a fantastic little museum that packs a lot of awesome displays into its rooms!

Fantastic gem, just outside metro Phoenix. Leave yourself a min of two hours, and enjoy a leisurely stroll through the exhibit. The cowgirl art exhibit was so fun and inspiring, too. It's only there for a few months per year, so check it out before memorial day.

So well done...Great display of History and the period of time. You are transported back to the late 1800's. Your Western Museum admission also includes admission to the Cultural Center. Outstanding display of Apache Heritage. Be sure to take a stroll through old town and admire all the amazing bronze sculptures.

Great museum - smaller, but still interesting. They have affordable tickets with some common discounts (AAA, military, etc). No wait to get in on a Saturday afternoon, easily bought our tickets at the door. Downstairs is awesome!

This is an excellent museum on western life with lots of exhibits for young and old.

This a great local museum packed with history. Lots of displays along with good dioramas. There was a display of cowgirl artists, which is not permanent, but very nice. If you are in town for a bit I recommend a trip to this museum. You'll come away with a good amount of local history.

This was a nice historic museum. Great for adults. You could spend a few hours learning about the past and looking at the beautiful art. Most of museum is don't touch, look and read. I had hoped it would be more kid oriented and hands on explanation. Sadly there are very little hands on items. The kids were entertained enough but it is a one time visit sort of place for my family.

We went here because our 4 yr old wanted to go. It was her first museum experience and I gotta say we were impressed from all the setups down to the patience of the staff. Everyone is very nice and informational. The downstairs area is really cool for kids! Our daughter had a blast!

What a treasure! Art and history collide in this great museum of the old west and native American culture. Walking old Wickenburg is fun too, but you will have to wait until fall now. Most shops are closed for the summer

I loved this place because everything was very authentic. The people who run the museum were super nice and informational. Its free for AD military AND their family's which is a perk. There's options to listen to the museum through a cassette and headphones or you can just browse through and read everything yourself. There's a hologram type video downstairs which is pretty cool. And a nice small gift shop. Definitely worth checking out!!

This was a fabulous museum! I was blown away by the art. The downstairs area for kids was awesome and my daughter thought the hologram was so cool. One of my favorite museums in all the little Arizona towns I've been to so far. Well worth the price of admission.
