Things To Do
Downtown SLO
Downtown San Luis Obispo (SLO) has it all! Shopping, restaurants, a historic mission, and a fun, yet gross, bubblegum alley. For those of you who make it into town Thursday, there is a lively farmer's market/block party every Thursday evening at 6pm.
Hearst Castle
A historic estate for those who want a local museum visit!
Mount Madonna Hike
The Cerro San Luis Natural Reserve (known as Mount Madonna to locals) has a moderate 2.2-mile, dog-friendly hike for those who want to get their steps in!
Morro Bay
Morro Bay is the cutest beach town in the area. Only a 25-minute drive from Atascadero, downtown Morro Bay is a perfect seaside getaway.
Central Coast Zoo Brew
For those who don't get enough to drink at our wedding on Friday, the local zoo is having a zoo brew on Saturday! Tickets are required.
Avila Hot Springs
Relax and soak in the mineral water of Avila's natural hot springs!
Avila Valley Barn
Especially great for animal lovers or those with kids, the Avila Valley Barn is a favorite date-spot for the bride and groom when they're in town! Free entry.
Gopher Glen Organic Apple Farm
Another favorite date spot for the bride and groom, this rustic and charming apple farm in See Canyon sells the best local apples and apple cider you can get. It'll be apple season for the wedding!
Back Porch Bakery
The best croissants in town! Highly recommended breakfast spot in Atascadero.
The Range Restaurant
One of the groom's favorite dinner spots in the area. Cash only, so go prepared!
Hearst Ranch Winery
Central Coast California is renowned for its world-class wineries. A recommendation is the Hearst Ranch Winery.
