5 Free Things to do in Santa Maria That You Shouldn't Miss

Rancho Sisquoc Winery has been crafting quality wines in small quantities for over 45 years. We grow over 300 acres of superb vineyards for our award winning estate wines. Located in northern Santa Barbara County on the Sisquoc River, 14 miles east of Santa Maria, Rancho Sisquoc is part of an 1852 Mexican land grant. The Chumash Indians called this area "Sisquoc", which meant "gathering place". Today, Rancho Sisquoc is again a gathering place, this time for wine lovers. We welcome visitors to our Tasting Room and to enjoy our beautiful picnic grounds.
