PASO ROBLES<br />

As home to some of the finest wines in the world, Paso Robles has exploded in recent years<br />

into a chic burg with cow town roots. Don’t be surprised to find boots and big buckles shining<br />

in the area’s 200+ wineries, tasting rooms and fast-growing collection of distilleries, breweries<br />

and cider houses. When tasting time ends, head downtown for shopping, entertainment and<br />

wine country dining.<br />

Where to Stay: Go mobile with an RV park overlooking the vines on the outskirts of town,<br />

tuck into a winery bed and breakfast or settle in at a charming luxury hotel near restaurants,<br />

shops and tasting rooms around Downtown City Park.<br />

ARROYO GRANDE<br />

Ready to be unplugged? Stroll this village’s main street and find a roaming brood of roosters<br />

that have become the town mascots, then gear up to walk the swinging footbridge that hangs<br />

40 feet above the creek. As for shopping, you’ll literally find a butcher, baker and candlestick<br />

maker in the historic town center, plus antique shops and farm-fresh restaurants. When it’s time<br />

to get your adventure on, head out past pretty farmland to Lopez Lake for hiking, water sports,<br />

ziplining and fishing.<br />

Where to Stay: Arroyo Grande provides plenty of vacation rentals as well as quaint<br />

bed and breakfasts near the village or overlooking farms, fields and vineyards.<br />
