Their cinnamon rolls are known world-wide. They've been featured on television shows. They are large, buttery, and delicious. Also, this place is in downtown Pismo Beach. It's a great opportunity to go look at the pier, and other seaside things.

A recent guest asked me where they could get breakfast with an ocean view. This is one place I found kind of nearby, (about a 10-minute drive), where that can happen any day of the week. Yelp only gives Marisol 3.5 out of 5 stars, but it's worth a try. I've heard many good things about Marisol's happy hour over the years. Nobody has mentioned their breakfasts. It's pricey. $7 for orange juice.

This restaurant is a little off the beaten path, but they have delicious, (big!) made-to-order burritos. You place the order at the register, then, they'll yell out your order, and you go up to the counter and tell them how you want your burrito made. Very popular with locals.

They have a breakfast bar from about 8am to 10am every day. It's reasonably priced, and has different choices from the standard American fare. I like their Italian sausage & bell pepper mix (a little spicy), spinach quiche, and grilled mixed vegetables. They have many other choices including scrambled eggs, biscuits & gravy, chorizo, and even breakfast sandwiches. Earlier is better or the food sits. Cooked bacon and sausage are available at the deli counter. Locals fill a box with a meal, buy it, and then sit in the booths at the front of the store. Great for local people watching. Their coffee is good, too. Also, many local items, natural products, and knick knacks for sale.

Parks & Nature

This is a shared paved walking and bicycling trail. Walking on this trail is one of my favorite things. It's a 3-mile trail starting just off the 101, and it ends at Avila Beach, another seaside community that is fun to visit. The beach at Avila is one of the warmest in the area. Leashed dogs are welcome on the trail and in downtown Avila, but only on the beach before 10am and after 5pm.

You can drive on the beach here! It's one of the few places in the state of California where this is allowed. Pay $5 at the ranger station, then stay on the hard-packed area near the water so you don't get stuck. Wash your car afterward as the ocean water is corrosive. The water is chilly for swimming most of the year, warmest in the late summer/early fall. Lovely 3/4 mile boardwalk that passes through the dunes to the monarch butterfly grove. If you continue for another half mile (past the campgrounds, take the sidewalk past the RV park, over the lagoon bridge), you'll end up in Pismo Beach. The trail head is to the right of the parking lot at Grover Beach. Lovely sunsets. Don't linger on the boardwalk in the dusk. The mosquitoes are bad. I learned this the hard way.

The butterflies are stunning. They're here from about November to March of each year. When they're here, there's a monarch butterfly gift shop trailer and docent-led talks on the habits and life cycle of the butterfly starting about every 45 minutes. It's an easy 1.5 mile walk each way from the apartment on the streets by Grand Ave and the beach boardwalk. We have an online trail map, just ask us for the link.

Go to the right of the resort's main building, and there is a path to a small beach that has tide pools. A great spot for kids to inspect sea life, like hermit crabs and anemones up close. Tiny shells and pebbles to collect. There are a few spots to park in the resort parking lot. Be sure to Google for a California tide calendar before you go. At high tide, the water comes up to the cliffs, and you can't get to the beach.

Vons can get very crowded during the summer. I always try to schedule my visits for the early morning or late evening so I don't waste my time standing in line. They do have self-checkout, but you can't buy alcohol or gift cards in that line. Bring your own shopping bag or pay 10 cents each. It's the law here.

The Laundromat at 13th and Grand Ave, in Grover Beach is the one most locals use. Their prices are fair, unlike some of the other places that are more expensive during tourist season.

Car Wash! Coin operated. DIY style. Very important to wash your vehicle after driving on the beach or in the Dunes Recreational Avea. The salty ocean water is corrosive.

Entertainment & Activities

On Sunday afternoons during the summer, through September, there is a farmers market in the park with free live music. It's an easy walk from our place. A different style of music almost every week. Very loud, but very enjoyable. Bring a chair or blanket. We have both blankets and chairs available for you to borrow, just ask!

It's the Saturday afternoon, smaller version of SLO's farmers market. Live music, and it's in the Village area of Arroyo Grande. A lovely place for a little shopping.

The biggest scene in the area on Thursday nights is the farmer's market in San Luis Obispo (locals call it "SLO"--prounounced like "slow"). There is live music, shopping, food carts, crowds, and of course, vegetables for sale. Rain cancels.
