10 Shopping in Santa Rosa That You Shouldn't Miss
If you're into wine-tasting, a weekend in Santa Rosa is certain to be satisfying. But this region of magnificent redwoods, rolling hills and ocean vistas has a great mix of other fun pastimes as well. Located right in the center of the Sonoma County wine region, Santa Rosa is home to several vineyards with world-class wines, rich histories and beautiful surroundings. The Matanzas Creek Winery offers June and July visitors a chance to enjoy its aromatic fields of blooming lavender, but its Estate Gardens and spectacular scenery are tourist draws year-round. If golf is your passion, grab your clubs and spend a relaxing afternoon at Fountaingrove or one of the other popular courses. Young and old alike will delight in the Charles M. Schulz Museum, which chronicles the evolution and history of Snoopy and the "Peanuts" gang. With wine or without, a trip to Santa Rosa is one you'll never forget.

Not only it has free parking when you pay for an even in it, the size is just enough for an intimate yet party size capable if necessary. No big screens like those big stadiums have for people to see that's seating too far away. Also, the size of the seats are comfortable and good width. I myself went to plenty of events place to watch artists perform so I know the typical 'you have to stand for people to get out of that row' situation. If you buy drinks, unless you also buy the cup with the theater name for $3, then you have to finish it outside. It seems expensive for sure, but if you go here pretty often, it's not that bad and the quality of the cup is pretty reliable. I got a coffee for $2, husband got wine for $9, and I also bought cookies for $3 which we finished easily while waiting for the 2nd set to start.

The nearby Charles M. Schulz Museum (worth a visit!) has a tiny gift shop, with some nice merchandise, including Peanuts collection books. If you really want to geek out on Charlie Brown-related merch, this is where you need to go! Sweatshirts, T-shirts, all kinds of gifts. You will go nuts over Peanuts in this store.
