Rinconada, located between Los Gatos Boulevard and Highway 17, is a residential and hillside Los Gatos neighborhood with curving streets and a wooded backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Los Gatos Boulevard corridor near Lark Avenue, where coffee counters, small eateries, and everyday errands set a steady, local rhythm. Mid-century ranch homes and updated California contemporaries sit on larger lots, with frequent views into the Santa Cruz Mountains. Trailheads and open-space edges shape an outdoors-forward routine. The nearby Los Gatos Creek Trail adds a linear greenway feel for walks and bike rides. For culture and a night out, Los Gatos Theatre, The Cats, and Gardino’s Ristorante Italiano anchor the town’s classic main-street scene.
