Only ONE morning in San Luis Obispo? Here’s exactly where I’d take you☀️🤎
Save this little SLO itinerary for the next time you’re here:
☕️ Start with coffee at Scout Coffee — because every good SLO morning should start with a local cup.
🥾 Hike Terrace Hill — a short adventure with one of my favorite views of San Luis Obispo.
🚂 Wander through the Railroad District — slow down, admire the neighborhood, and if you have little ones, they might even get lucky and see a train roll through.
🍴 Finish with lunch at Luna Red — because after that walk and hike…yes, we earned lunch. 😋
You don’t need a packed itinerary to have a beautiful day in SLO. Sometimes coffee, a good walk, a beautiful view and a delicious local meal are enough. 🤎
📍 SAVE this for your next morning in San Luis Obispo.
💌 SEND it to the person you’d spend this morning with.
And if you’re new here, follow Claudia Olsen | Islay Manor — I’ll show you around SLO like a local.

If you were visiting me in SLO this week, these are 5 things I’d put on your list ❤️👇🏽
One of my favorite things about San Luis Obispo is that you don’t need a complicated itinerary to have a really good day here.

Grab coffee from a local café ☕️
Eat somewhere you’ll want to come back to 🍴
Wander through Downtown SLO Farmers’ Market 🌽
Take the scenic route 🌿
And if you have a little extra time… head to the coast. 🌊
These are the kinds of places and experiences I recommend to my own friends and family—and exactly why I created Islay Manor: to help you eat, stay & explore SLO like a local.
And because gluten-free dining is part of our family’s everyday life, I’ll always be sharing GF finds along the way, too. ❤️
Which one would you do first?
📌 SAVE this for your next SLO day.
💌 SEND it to someone you want to explore SLO with.
➕ FOLLOW Claudia Olsen | Islay Manor for local food, gluten-free finds, hidden gems & things to do around San Luis Obispo.

SLO… did you know Cal Poly has a Furry Club? 🐾👀

My friend and I were walking around Downtown SLO Farmers’ Market when we met some members of Furries at Cal Poly SLO — Cal Poly’s anthro enthusiast community.

Of course we had to stop and say hi! 💚💛

And here’s something I learned: you don’t need a fursuit to participate. Their page also says Cuesta students can participate as associate members.

I love that Farmers’ Market isn’t just about food — you never know who you’ll meet or what part of our SLO community you’ll discover ❤️
🐾 Follow Furries at Cal Poly SLO for their upcoming Fall 2026 meetings and hangouts.
Did you know this club existed? Tag your Cal Poly or Cuesta friend who needs to see this! 👇

SLO! 🚨 There’s only ONE Concerts in the Plaza left this summer! ! 🎶💃🏽
If you’re going, here are 4 things I’d tell a friend:
🧺 Come early + bring a low-back chair or blanket. The good spots fill up!

🧥 Bring a layer. SLO can be warm at 5 and chilly before you know it.

🍴 Make a night of it. Grab dinner, dessert or a drink downtown before or after the concert and SUPPORT our local businesses 💛
💃🏽 And DANCE! Seriously… that’s half the fun. 😂
One of my favorite things about Concerts in the Plaza isn’t just the music—it’s seeing our SLO community together ❤️
📌 SAVE this for Friday and SEND it to the person you want to go with!

👉🏽 follow Claudia Olsen | Islay Manor for more San Luis Obispo things to do, local food, gluten-free finds + Central Coast hidden gems.
