Los Olivos

Los Olivos

This pretty village in the Santa Ynez Valley was once on the Spanish-built El Camino Real (Royal Highway) and later a stop on major stagecoach and rail routes. It's so sleepy today, though, that TV's Return to Mayberry was filmed here. A row of tasting rooms, art galleries, antiques stores, and country markets lines Grand Avenue.
