Lava Cap

“Lava Cap was suggested to me by a local at another Sierra Foothillsbrand. Their description made it seem so far in the hills but it really isn’t. However, you are just far enough up the hill from the highway to lose yourself and feel like you are “gllamping” with wine. The deck is peaceful and serene. The best time to visit is in fall when autumn colors make the view even better. However, don’t wait until the holidays or the area can get busy with the cutting this year’s Christmas Tree crowd.”
