Oak Glen: A Hidden Autumn Gem Near LA! ππ
Looking for a perfect fall day trip close to LA? Oak Glen is your answer! We went hoping to pick apples π, but even though apple season was winding down, we discovered so much more β especially for families! π First Stop: The Charming Little Farm Address: 39611 Oak Glen Rd, Yucaipa, CA 92399 π΅ Tip: Service is spotty β screenshot your map ahead of time! At this cozy farm, kids can get up close with alpacas, rabbits, sheep, cows, horses, donkeys, and even an emu! The little ones were so excited they never wanted to leave π. Youβll also find fresh apple goodies like apple butter, pies, and cider β all deliciously homemade π₯§π§. π Second Stop: Discovery Center A short drive away, this center offers a chance to learn about local wildlife. If youβre lucky, you might spot a bear passing through! π» We arrived after 4:30 PM (closing time), so go earlier to fully enjoy it. π Third Stop: Mountain Slide Fun! Address: 38480 Oak Glen Rd (just 4 minutes from the farm) Hereβs the highlight β a super fun mountain slide where kids (and kids at heart!) ride big tires down a smooth track. Our little one went again and againβ¦ and again! ππ₯³ π Final Thoughts No apples? No problem! With crisp autumn air, friendly animals, and that awesome tire slide, Oak Glen makes for a relaxed, joyful family day out. No strict plans needed β just let the kids lead the way and enjoy the simple fun. Perfect for a weekend escape with your little explorers! π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦π #OakGlen #AutumnInLA #FamilyFun #KidFriendlyLA #ApplePicking #FallVibes #LAWeekend
