Great place. Dean Wilhite and I stopped there on our way from Portland to San Diego for MMW. Nice to know the road is repaved. Used to spend a lot of time in Santa Barbara, and Cold Springs Tavern was a great getaway.

Old San Marcos Pass Road is a Mini driver's dream. A two lane freshly paved ridgetop road with 15° banked switchbacks. Good visibility around the turns and no traffic—all at or below the posted speed limit. It's hard to imagine anything better. The hot chocolate was good too.
