Hey guys this girl I'm seeing loves Christmas Decorations, she wants to go on a walk somewhere with decorations.

Anybody know of any neighborhoods in the LA area that has residential streets that are ummm ... festive? I'm talking about over the top, lights up everywhere, fake reindeers on the lawn, a mechanical Santa Claus of the roof., jeesus in the manger displays etc...

I know the department of water and power has decorations up at Griffith park, but I'm looking for something more. There is also a street in San Marino, CA that I checked out, but that was just a street with large trees that were wrapped in lights.

thanks guys! beers for everyone for any help!

 

There is somwhere in Chino Hills. Don't remember exactly where but went last year. If you want over-the-top you should go there. I'll try to get more info.

 

subscribing also because I need to steal some ideas too

girls love this kinda **** and its free brownie points for us

 

yeah bud....check these out

goto griffith park. they have a light show..you drive thru it, aorund the golf courses and past the zoo. best bet is to take the 5 north get off at los feliz or griffith park and turn right.. and follow the signs...

if you want to see one house, goto the bailen mansion. its in pasadena at the top of lake.. a small street on the right, can't remember the name. but im sure if you called someone at the city they would know... but its at the top of the street, just past a stop sign and you can barely see it on the right from lake.... i'd have to drive there to get the name, sorry man.

also in pasadena, goto michelinda and rosemaead.. go up any of those streets, the eventually connect at the top of the hill.. and many of the side streets have lights...

 

Heard Watts was the place to go!

 

christmas tree lane in pasadena/altadena area.

that should help
city of orange has a neighborhood decoration thing every year. i dun know how big it is anymore but it was pretty crazy back in the day. also balboa island.

 

Pasadena is your city... but watch out for the Charger Popos

 

the way up to or near pasadena art center has nice houses that go full out on decorating with lights/props

 

Here is the link to the Gondola place I mentioned to you in the pm. I'm sure a lot of the houses in Naples are decorated too.

On the reals, if you dont mind driving to the valley... there's a whole street of houses that compete each year, it's called "Candy Lane"

It's off the 101 here in Woodland Hills,Ca... If you're headed 101 North, you would exit "Winnetka Blvd." and make a right... on a weekend, you'll usually see a line of cars waiting to get in, from both directions... if not, make a right on Oxnard, and then a Right on Oakdale... and voila, instant "awWWwWWwWwW-ing" from the misses, and hopefully a nice night for you.. Enjoy!

 

BTW, http://www.santaclaritaguide.com/HolidayLights.html is not just santa clarita. it's christmas lights for pretty much every county in southern california. it has most of the ones u guys brought up and should be a good guide for any lover boy. haha jk
