Three Sisters Falls Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 This trail is amazing, take plenty of water, pedialyte (for electrolytes), a towel, some snacks and bug spray. I recommend wearing a bathing suit, so you can take a dip in the waterfall. Take plenty of sun screen. Wear a hat and definitely don't think about traveling back just before sunset. The roc...

Cedar Creek Falls Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 Beautiful trail, worth the hike. It's easy going down. Definitely need to make some stops going back up. You cross 3 streams before the waterfall. Saw a lot of large spiders near the waterfall on the rocks, so be cautious, leaving your belongs on the floor. Once your shoes get wet, they do become s...

New American restaurant
👍👍 All the dishes we had were well executed and thought out. Balanced sauces in the lettuce wrap. Fish taco was so fresh and packed with flavor. The French Fries and Sweet Potato Fries were fresh and crispy. The Cauliflower dish was okay but my least favorite. Hubby loved a baked potato for only $3.00....

👍👍 Our experience at vina Ramona was great! Jamie the bartender was great to chat with and shared with us the culture and community of Romona. We visited 3 wineries today and this was by far our fav!

👍👍 This was the perfect raptor tour. Our guides knew their stuff and gave clear and concise information about everything from husbandry to conservation. Not only that, they made efforts to know the names of participants, which is no small feat. There was plenty of time to take pictures and see these b...

Vineyard Grant James
Winery
👍👍 Great little boutique winery. This is not a big, fancy operation like some in the area. Frequently, the owners are serving you, and you can discuss the grapes, happenings, even life in general. Never tried one of their wines that wasn't delicious. The have live music on the weekends to make relaxing...

👍👍 A delicious prime rib birthday dinner. Quite a meal for only $14.99. One of my favorite restaurants by far. Pretty much everything on the menu is tasty and reasonably priced. My wife had the tuna melt (pictured) and enjoyed it.... Delicious !!! Still one of my favorite places although the menu choi...

👍👍 A group of us visited Chuparosa on a Sunday afternoon and we had a great time. It has a small outdoor patio that has one large table for 6 and about three small tables for 2-4. There's more seating inside too. There's a beautiful view of their vineyard and Olive trees. Wine tasting was very afforda...

Barona Cultural Center & Museum
Museum
😠 Barons reservations have been my favorite places to visit. But why have these facilities advertised if only the tribal members can visit? I was just told to leave the church parking by tribal police while waiting for mass because it is a reservation and for tribal members only. Yes, at the church i...

The Oaks Grille
Family restaurant
😐 I had the shrimp Cappellini. 4 shrimp is okay but way too much salt. I love capers but ease up on the salt if you’re using them! I’ve eaten here several times and always thought the fare was better that fair, but stay away from the cappellini.

El Cajon Mountain
Mountain peak
👍👍 Other reviewers are not exaggerating when they say it is not for the inexperienced. If your hiking experience consist of only Cowls Mountain, do not expect to summit here. This is a 11mi, out and back trail that switches between uphill and downhill sections constantly. That coupled with little to n...
