What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Pacific Crest Cemetery is a place of peaceful remembrance, appreciated for its serene atmosphere and unique tombstones, especially during golden hour. However, some visitors note that groundskeeping could be improved, with occasional weeds and trash. The recent change in operating hours to 8 AM - 5 PM has also been a point of concern for those unable to visit during the day.
"Both my grandparents and my parents are buried here. I’ve been coming here with my parents since I was a baby.
On my recent visit to take flowers to my Mom and Grandmother, the flower pots were overgrown with grass. Fortunately I saw one of the groundskeeper. He was so nice and helpful. He drove over and uncovered all 8 flower pots for each and also cleaned off the headstones. Thank you so much, groundskeeper Omar for your help."

"Loved walking around this cemetery. I had some pictures taken of me with my phone. There are a lot of cool tomb stones. It is very peaceful to walk. The lighting at golden hour was beautiful. Made me feel very pretty ☀️"

"I had to change my review & stars given. One of the main reasons I chose this cemetery for my son's final resting place was their hours. They used to be open from dawn to dusk, which was wonderful during summer as dusk isn't until 8:00. The hours are now 8 - 5 & THAT SUCKS!! WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO WORK?? I AM SO UPSET ABOUT THIS I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!! I go here quite often to visit my son & it's always very calming & peaceful. Although, in my opinion, it could be kept up a bit better. Lots of weeds growing over the headstones/markers, the grass needs to be watered more & there is always trash all throughout the grounds. I clean up the grown over headstones, water all the grass surrounding my son's plot & pick up the trash every time I visit cause I can't stand to see it like that. One would think those kind of services would be performed by their employees what with the obscene prices they charge for plots & such. But I'll keep doing what I do cause everyones final resting place should be beautiful & well kept....it truly is a labor of love for me. 💗"
