San Lorenzo Park
San Lorenzo Park is a picturesque park nestled along the Salinas River in the foothills of the Santa Lucia Mountains just outside of King City off Highway 101. The park offers a perfect blend of old and new with its immaculate day-use facilities that include picnic areas, a gazebo, playgrounds, volleyball court, open turf areas, and a walking trail along the banks of the Salinas River. Individual and group barbecue areas are available as well as a large community meeting room. San Lorenzo Park is the perfect haven for weary travelers offering a shaded campground with 99 overnight campsites and amenities.
The Monterey County Agricultural and Rural Life Museum (MCARLM) is located within the Park. Its interpretive period is the last quarter of the 19th century through World War II. The collections are principally agricultural-related implements, house museum furnishings, and historic objects related to specific local history. The museum complex has seven buildings: the Exhibit Barn, Olson Blacksmith Shop, Tractor and Harvester Shed, and History of Irrigation Museum, plus the Spreckels House (1898), La Gloria Schoolhouse (1887), and King City Train Depot (1903).
