History page

 The Pozo Saloon was established in 1858 as part of a busy town nestled between the San Joaquin Valley and the Central Coast of California. A ride over Pozo Summit will take you across the rugged road that once helped connect San Luis Obispo County with the inland valley. At one time Pozo boasted a hotel, at least two blacksmith shops, a general store, post office, numerous homes and ranches and its' own school district. From Pozo, travelers could take Hi Mountain Road into the South County or continue on to Santa Margarita where the railroad would transport goods and passengers to the northern part of the state. The advent of the car, and building of Highways 58 and 46 heralded the end of Pozo as a stop for weary travelers. Today only the Saloon and part of the Pozo Hotel are still standing.  A proud part of San Luis Obispo County history, it is still a focal point for entertainment and celebrations.
