Although often overlooked, Arroyo Grande is home to many unique attractions. For example, did you know that it’s home to California’s only swinging bridge? It dates back to 1875 when it didn’t have any handrails. Or that traffic in the village center will often stop…for free-ranging roosters?
That’s only a start. Ghost stories abound in Arroyo Grande—one is said to haunt the pizza parlor in a downtown heritage building, and there are more ghosts at the Pitkin Estate on Valley Road. The area also lays claim to some celebrities, was home to America’s first woman to receive a pilot’s license, and has an amazing vineyard with a historic adobe on its property.
A real sign of community, the owner of Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Parlor—besides letting customers create their own flavors and sometimes adding them to the menu—hosts a day where the proceeds from his sales go toward helping kids working for him attend a local college. These are only a few of the things that make Arroyo Grande so special.

A youtuber Kano Kun nightcore lives around there
I thought this video was gonna be scary
I miss living here
Thank you for this video! My family and I are in talks of possibly moving here from Colorado:)
I go to school in Arroyo Grande so I’ve had so many memories of going to the village, going on the swinging bridge, looking at the roosters (some of my friends have picked them up before) and going down to the creek. The highschool there and Paulding Middle School is amazing.
Same
I live closer to Paulding but had to go to Judkins for some reason.
@Agavegaming Yeah the district works strangely I live across the street from a middle school and they wanted me at judkins I ended up home schooled anyways so it didn’t matter
Mr to
Nice bit of KPOP as a music bed. Who is the group or artist?
Would be nice for you to feature more diversity in your videos. People of all cultures live, work and play here, not just token representation.
I hate Arroyo Grande so much! The swinging bridge is ass!
Bro shut up.
