Eugene O'Neill is one of America's most beloved playwrights and a Nobel Prize winner, so it's no surprise that a historic site is dedicated to him. Located in northern California by Danville, the site sits on the edge of the Las Trampas Regional Wilderness. This means plenty of hiking both at the historic site and the wilderness area.
The O'Neill site alone covers 13 acres boasting historic buildings, almond orchards, and a swimming pool. Catch a play—one of O'Neill's own—at the old barn, or hike along the nature trails. This area is popular with wildlife enthusiasts. You might catch a glimpse of red or gray foxes, bobcats, or mule deer. Birders gather for a glimpse of the red-tailed hawk, turkey vulture, or American kestrel.
Visit during the summer or fall. If you plan your trip during the latter, you can enjoy

Visit during the summer or fall. If you plan your trip during the latter, you can enjoy changing fall foliage while exploring the O'Neill place. In fact, get some one-on-one time with nature by camping nearby at Mount Diablo State Park or Anthony Chabot Regional Park. You need to make a reservation to tour the park for every day except for Saturday. Visitors can't drive and park at the site directly. Instead, get a shuttle from Danville. It stops for passengers (free of charge) at 205 Railroad Avenue next to the Museum of the San Ramon Valley.
