Pine Mountain Club... on the way to no where.
Mount Pinos looms overhead on this private community of mountain cabins, as it sits 40 miles east of the Santa Barbara coast & only 18 miles from Interstate 5. Yet this small alpine village is often overlooked by many, as they dash over the Grapevine from the Central Valley to Los Angeles. Lush pinyon pine forest, snow capped mountains & creeks run throughout the landscape. No ski resorts, no large recreational lakes, & very little tourists. Small shops & restaurants cater to locals & weekend visitors. Totally surrounded by Los Padres National Forest, fresh air, meadows & hiking trails make this an ideal mountain get-away for those who know about it. Hiking, equestrian & mountain biking trails encircle the town. Cerro Noroeste Road on the west side of town is a very popular ride among motorcycles.
