About Ben Lomond

Ben Lomond is a Santa Cruz County census-designated place in the San Lorenzo Valley, with the San Lorenzo River running through it and Ben Lomond Mountain rising to the west. The CDP includes Glen Arbor and Brackney, and it has the wooded, small-town feel of the Santa Cruz Mountains rather than the beach-town feel of the coast. Local history reaches back to Scottish settler John Burns, early mountain vineyards, and Highway 9 businesses. Ben Lomond is residential, forested, and closely tied to valley roads and river geography.
