The gateway to all the top attractions in Southern California—10 minutes from Disneyland, 20 minutes from Knott’s Berry Farm, and a hair over an hour from Universal Studios—Anaheim’s next-door neighbour puts you close to all the action but lets you escape to somewhere more relaxing at the end of the day. Garden Grove has attractions of its own, like the eye-popping glass-and-steel Crystal Cathedral, but most people head here for the family-friendly Grove District Anaheim Resort, a walkable stretch of Harbour Boulevard that’s home to 10 resort hotels, including the Great Wolf Lodge and its massive indoor water park.
