It lies approximately 100 miles northwest of Los Angeles, nestled against the Santa Ynez mountains, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. In June, the days are warm (70º F), and the nights are cool (50º F), with occasional morning fog. Nearby are many excellent ocean beaches, lakes, forests and mountains with varied hiking trails. Daily excursions can be made to the Hearst Castle, the flower fields of Lompoc, the Old World Village of Solvang, the Mission, the famous Court House, or the Botanical Gardens.
