Top 6 Things to do in San Ramon

A stay at the Evergreen Bed and Breakfast will transport you away from the hub-bub of daily living into a rustic (yet high end) getaway nestled in the forested East Bay hills. If you prefer to be closer to town the Hotel Sierra San Ramon offers lots of amenities and easy access to restaurants and activities. Both options provide an opportunity to get out of the coastal fog of the city, enjoy the outstanding features of this area and maybe even play a little golf.

If you arrive at the Evergreen Bed and Breakfast on a cold day you will be greeted by a roaring fire. No matter the weather, you will most assuredly find a bottle of champagne chilling in the fridge of your lovely room. Close to everything--yet nestled away from it all--this is a good choice for the romantically inclined.
Bridges is perhaps the most scenic golf club in the area but it is also esteemed for its true greens and moderately challenging and undulating course.
I love archaeology and this historic building from the 1840's is definitely what I call an archaeological ruin.
I'm not a big fan of chain hotels but I do find some that I like and this is one of them. This hotel gets rave reviews from me for its creature comforts, consistency, high end finishes (granite counter-tops in the bathroom) and great food.
This restaurant gets raves from my friend's Italian grandmother. This is perhaps one of the most authentically gourmet Italian restaurants that you will find in the Bay Area. You won't find a lot of culinary cliches here. The menu is a diverse mix of delicious pastas, seafood, savory duck, chicken, pork and beef dishes.
This busy little restaurant is considered by many to be the best place for breakfast in the East Bay. Renowned for their Eggs Benedict--that come in a number of creative permutations--and their country fries, this restaurant serves them up hot. A popular spot, you may have to wait to get a seat.

Those of us who are drawn to the history of the American west will find this old adobe relic (still standing but boarded up) to provide an interesting look back into our Spanish American past. More

I am the Vice President of an international, non-profit conservation organization, Save the Turtles, Inc. My eight years as a hands-on VP has provided me with plenty of experience writing web content, proposals, ad copy, brochures, fliers, promotional material, letters of inquiry (the list could go on and on.) Writing for Save the Turtle's website has provided me with great exposure to the concepts and practices of SEO. It seems that we have done rather well as our Google ranking is most often number one on the page. Although, I am still on the board of Save the Turtles and every bit as passionate about saving endangered species as ever, I am currently also enjoying another incarnation as a freelance writer. I love, love, love writing travel blogs! Lately, I have been writing for Uptake.com. and Mynatour, an eco-travel site based in London. I have also written an number of articles for other sites covering such wide-ranging topics as health, food, real estate, and science. My goal, with each writing assignment, is to match each clients individual needs by writing with an appropriate "voice" and level of readability for each unique, target audience.
