Alta Loma - Thoroughbred Christmas Lights


Where:  Alta Loma - exit 210 Carnellian St go North.  Make a left on Thoroughbred St. 
               At Thoroughbred and Sapphire St

I usually go from Carnellian left on Banyan because Thoroughbred is usually busy with cars and then go North on Sapphire.  Park in one of the neighborhoods and walk the streets.  Bring cash neighbors sell Hot Chocolate and Cookies!

  8. Im going to visit family there on the 23rd of Dec. I heard they used to have a horse drawn carriage to ride around looking at the lights, Is this still true?

  9. I have never seen the horse drawn carriage...only at the Mission Inn.

    Make sure you go on the 23rd...last year I went on Christmas Eve and the lights were not on.

  13. I went last year for the first time and was amazed by the fabulous lights. We walked it last year, but I dont remember if you can drive it or not. I am thinking of taking my Mother in law this year, and she is not mobile enough to walk it.

    Does anyone have any tips for driving it?
