City of Winters
Nestled at the base of the Vaca Mountains in northern California, Winters is a small farming town that hearkens back to a simpler time. Despite its small size, Winters is home to unique shops, restaurants, galleries, and a one-of-a-kind coffee-house, while at the same time offering its residents a host of amenities, recreation activities, and world-class cultural offer-ings within short driving distances. Its proximity to these attractions has allowed the town to retain its unique character and to avoid the traffic congestion and suburban clutter of many of its faster-growing northern California counterparts.
Within a 13-mile radius of Winters is UC Davis, the Mondavi Performing Arts Center, and a full complement of retail out-lets in Vacaville. For those who enjoy the beach or the mountains, the Pacific coast and the Sierra Mountain range are both within a 100-mile drive. For those seeking the city life, San Francisco (75 miles) and Sacramento (35 miles) are close enough to be visited on day trips. Closer to home is the world famous Napa Valley region and Lake Berryessa, which offers boating, kayaking, hiking, fishing and camping. And finally, live entertainment is accessible each week in the heart of Win-ters at the Palms Playhouse.
Winters is home to a budding artist community and has become a favorite destination for bicycle enthusiasts. The city is host to many annual events such as Youth Day, the Earthquake Festival, free summer concerts and St. Patrick's Day and Independence Day parades.
