The small town of Los Olivos began its journey in the 1860s as a stage coach stop. Starting in San Francisco, heading to Los Angeles, the journey was long and rough, the stage coach stop was a welcome sight.
Around 1885, a young New Yorker by the name of Alden March Boyd purchased 157 acres of farmland on a bluff overlooking Alamo Pintado Creek. He constructed a two-story farm house and planted over 5,000 olive trees. He named his new ranch 'Rancho de los Olivos'. Two years later, the narrow gauge railway between Los Alamos and the new small town was finished. The growing stage coach and now narrow gauge railway stop was eventually named Los Olivos, after Boyd's nearby ranch.
Nearly 150 years later, although the railway line is gone, Los Olivos still retains the charm and appearance of those bygone eras. Many of the buildings are still there, although expanded and updated, now they house wine tasting rooms, specialty shops and upscale restaurants. Still home to less than 2000 inhabitants, it has kept its small town charm and quaint atmosphere. In recent years, Los Olivos has become a must-see destination, surrounded by green rolling hills, wineries and farmland as well as its nearly perfect weather it is now known as a wedding and vacation destination. Throngs of visitors can be seen relaxing and wine tasting on any given day on one of its two main streets. Despite its growing reputation and many visitors year round, a streetlight is still nary to be seen. This little piece of Santa Barbara County history is a gem not to be missed.
