Which of these Bay Area hidden treasures have you been to?

5 towns in 5 bay area counties you may have never been to even though they are only few miles from you: 1. Draw Bridge, Alameda County Located 2 miles north of San Jose and 2 miles direct south of Fremont. (Milpitas is southeast of fremont not direct south.) The only ghost town in the Bay Area. You can see this ghost town by taking Amtrak. 2. La Honda, Santa Clara County Located 10 miles direct east of Cupertino and 12 miles direct south of Redwood City, La Honda is Silion Valley’s backyard and home to diverse habitats. High way 84 will take you there 3. Blackhawk, Contra Costa County Located 6 miles north of Dublin, this little treasure in Contra Costa is rich people’s heaven. You will see giant houses after giant houses over 5000 sqft with super wide drive ways and giant swimming pools. 4. Mill Valley, Marin County Adjacent to Sausalito. From nature trails, to beautiful cityscape, this little town is great place for a weekend getaway 5. Montara/Moss Beach, San Mateo County 15 miles west of San Mareo and 20 miles south of San Francisco, this little town next to the famous california highway 1 is a must-stop for viewing beatiful beach/sceneries and explore california hisotorical sites

Lived here for 17 years. Never went to these "hidden treasures"... Maybe I'll go soon and check it out. Otherwise I've been to most "normal" places around the Bay.

Mount umunhum up the Los Gatos mountains. It’s an abandoned army(?) base. You can see Santa Cruz from the top. Sometimes you can also go for the sunrise and see South Bay covered underneath a blanket of clouds. Other times it’s just a nice sunrise of the bay.

I love Montara state beach. There’s never anyone there and it’s so quite and peaceful. Hoping it stays that’s way
