Harvest

For the spookiest attraction in the city, visit the most famous address in San Jose, the Winchester Mystery House; built by Sarah Winchester, the widow of the gun magnate William Winchester. Legend has it; the widow took 38 years to build the extravagant Victorian mansion with 160 rooms, 47 fireplaces and 950 doors with the help of spirits and nightly séances. Enter at your own risk.

Slip and slide your way through Raging Waters, the best water attraction in San Jose. Get wet and wild on over 23 acres of rides like the Barracuda Blaster and the Serpentine Slides, the cobra, the viper and the python. Rent a cool cabana for front row water action offering gallons of family fun.

Adrenaline junkies get their fix at Santa Clara Paintball in San Jose. Players run around a field playing hide and seek with sharp-shooter paint guns until everyone is knocked off but the last man standing. Two to forty players can hit the field where safety and fun go hand in hand.
