Beautiful historic downtown but parking is a pain on weekends. Loved the architecture, just expect crowds.
If you visit in summer, check the Redlands Bowl schedule for free concerts. Bring a sweater, evenings cool off fast.
Caught a free concert at Redlands Bowl, magical night under the stars. Do reserve chairs early though.
Hot in summer, mild winters. Spring citrus blooms are lovely. One day was enough for me, two if you like museums.
Food scene surprised me, great brunch spots and Mexican food. Prices reasonable, portions generous. Bring walking shoes.
