Woodside

Woodside is nestled between the Pacific Ocean on one side and the San Francisco Bay on the other and it’s known for its beautiful preserves and biking routes. It is one of the wealthiest small towns in the United States and best places to live in California. In Woodside there are a lot of parks and the public schools in Woodside are above average. The intentionally small business district includes a few restaurants and services. There are several parks in Woodside to center yourself. Favorites include Wunderlich Park, Huddart Park, and Windy Hill Open Space Preserve — all equipped with trails for hiking, biking, or horseback riding. Another great option is El Corte de Madera Creek Trail and the historic Filoli House and Garden, a beautiful 654-acre estate open to the public year-round.

Woodside is a Hollywood favorite. The house in the Robin Williams movie Bicentennial Man is in Woodside. Dynasty was filmed at the Filoli Estate (not the interior of the mansion, but the exterior), as were the films The Wedding Planner, The Game, Lolita, George of the Jungle, Heaven Can Wait, and Harold and Maude. The musical Rent also has a scene filmed inside the Filoli Estate.
