For many, images of San Buenaventura or "the City of Good Fortune" have been limited to a few highway signs along Highway 101 -- leaving the legends, haunts, history and color of this seaside town virtually untold and undiscovered. Just 27 miles south of Santa Barbara and 60 miles north of Los Angeles, Ventura is the gateway to Channel Islands National Park; home to a thriving arts district; and shelter to one of California's last "working" harbors. The centerpiece is Ventura's revitalized downtown that reflects the charm of another era and the bustle of new boutiques, wine bars, restaurants, inns, galleries and stage theaters.

To learn more about Ventura's undiscovered treasures, please give me a call. The City of Good Fortune awaits!
