The tree-lined city of Fremont
Set in the San Francisco Bay Area’s southeastern section, Fremont is a large, buzzing city, renowned for its wealth of green space. Sprawling recreational parks offer endless sporting activities, while the intrepid can explore the region’s wildlife refuges and mountain-capped preserves. The streets of downtown Fremont are blanketed in shady trees, and lined with family-friendly eateries, historic homes, bijou boutiques, and cultural centers. Whether you opt for a luxury condo or spacious villa, make the most of this sun-kissed city with the perfect Fremont vacation rental.
Family-friendly fun in historic Fremont
If you’ve booked a Fremont vacation rental for the whole family, you’ll want to find city attractions to match and Ardenwood Historic Farm is the perfect place to start. This real working farm is a living museum, with workers in period attire, where kids can learn about crops, ride the farm train, and, in fall, play in the pumpkin patch. History buffs, meanwhile, can visit the 18th-century Old Mission San Jose, a Franciscan Spanish chapel with a whitewash exterior and a cavernous, atmospheric interior hall decorated in gold-flecked statues.
Fresh air a-plenty in Fremont
Outdoorsy types will fall in love with Fremont, a city whose culture sustains and encourages fresh air, recreation, and outdoor escapes. Fremont Central Park is a 450-acre green space boasting a vast, shimmering lake with boating opportunities, as well as hiking trails, sports fields, biking paths, and a 9-hole golf course. Serious golfers, meanwhile, will find paradise in perfectly maintained 18-hole courses elsewhere in Fremont. But Fremont’s not all about outdoor excursions – the Niles District celebrates an annual antique flea market, and a wealth of arts and crafts stores.
Soak up Fremont’s summer sun
Fremont boasts a pleasant Mediterranean-type climate and experiences relatively low annual rainfall, thanks to the western Santa Cruz Mountains, which block most of the rain clouds. The winter months – November through February – are chilly but sunny. In summer – June through September – temperatures climb to the high 70s. Summer travelers can enjoy the many Fremont vacation rentals offering spacious gardens, perfect for firing up a BBQ and soaking up the sun.
