OT: Stay or Get the heck out of town

[CA renter]

Yes, location and Hollywood money.

We’re originally from L.A., and many (most) of the wealthier people from L.A. love to take mini-vacations in Santa Barbara, Ojai, and other nearby areas.

Try to find a more “out of the way” place. You might find a better deal, and might enjoy meeting some really nice (if not far-out) people. 🙂

If you dont take the wife, take the boys camping this Summer. There is a great campsite about 5 miles north of Ojai that I took my son to a couple yars ago. It is one of the few places I found in SoCal that you can camp next to a mountain stream (that actually has running water in the Summer). Growing up back east I loved playing in creeks and wanted to take my son to experience that. After a few months of research I found a place near Ojai. We had a great time and alternated between heading North to hike in the Los Padres forest and heading south to Ojai (there’s a great lake with a waterpark and the town is very Santa Fe NM like) for dinner when we didnt want to cook. There’s a great old fashioned ice creme parlour in town too.

Spa time is easy

Try La Costa Spa & Resort

call them

they’ll hook you up

I love it there

Russian River is awesome. I used to live there. But it is an 11 hour drive from here.[/quote]

As someone who grew up near there, I can reliably say that you can make it in 7. However, you should not try it with passengers.
