With Sacramento's scorching hot summer around the corner, you'll need a list of ways to escape the city to cool down. Add this beautiful location to that list.
Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens looks like the perfect escape you need to cool off. Stroll through the gardens for peace and tranquility, and shop the nursery to bring a plant baby home with you!
They also have a cafe and gift shop onsite, so you could literally spend a whole day there. The gardens are even dog-friendly, so you wouldn't need to worry about finding a sitter for your pupper!
Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens is located in Fort Bragg, about 3 1/2 to 4 hours away from Sacramento.
