Beautiful surroundings
Mendocino County, nestled along California’s rugged northern coast, offers breathtaking natural beauty with its dramatic cliffs, serene redwood forests, and rolling vineyards. The Pacific Ocean crashes against rocky shores, while misty hills and tranquil rivers create a peaceful retreat. Charming coastal villages like Mendocino and Fort Bragg blend artistic flair with panoramic views, making the region a haven for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone seeking a quiet escape in stunning surroundings.
Outdoor recreation
Willits and our surrounding Mendocino County region is an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise, offering endless opportunities for adventure in its diverse natural landscapes. Hike through towering redwood forests, paddle along scenic rivers, coastal inlets and lakes, or set up camp beneath star-filled skies. Enjoy swimming, casting a line in peaceful lakes and streams, or exploring hidden beaches and tide pools. Whether you're into rugged trails or tranquil waters, Mendocino's great outdoors has something for everyone.

Local restaurants and cafes showcase the region’s bounty with seasonal menus featuring organic produce, artisan cheeses, and freshly caught fish in different parts of our area.

A thriving arts and cultural scene
Willits is a cultural gem in the heart of Mendocino County, where creativity, community, and heritage come together in vibrant ways. Home to the Willits Center for the Arts — the largest free-standing arts center in any U.S. town under 5,000 — this lively town hosts monthly exhibitions, hands-on workshops, and diverse cultural events year-round. Willits also celebrates its roots with iconic events like Willits Frontier Days, California's longest-running rodeo, and the whimsical Kinetic Carnivale, a festival of human-powered art and invention. Beyond Willits, the art scenes in Mendocino and Ukiah also shine, offering coastal galleries, local artisan shops, live performances, and seasonal festivals. Throughout the region, a deep appreciation for the arts and a strong sense of community creates a welcoming and inspiring atmosphere for all.
