Redlands is a quintessential “big town” with a “small town” feel.

Redlands is located approximately 60 miles east of Los Angeles, and 45 miles northwest of Palm Springs, which makes it an easy drive to reach mountains, beaches and deserts. The city is known for its Victorian and historical architecture, weekly farmers’ market events, Lincoln Memorial Shrine and the Redlands Bowl. Tree-lined State Street is still comprised primarily of beautiful historic buildings and locally-owned shops and boutiques.
