I visit this Historic House to Day 10/14/2021 and let me tell you! I like it! A lot the house keepers show me the Inside House and is beautiful. , very clean and the history of Cornelius Jensen sailed to San Francisco during the Gold Rush to sell his cargo. In 1854 he settled in Agua Mansa, established a store, and married Mercedes Alvarado, a descendant of a pioneer Californio family. The Jensens purchased this ranch in 1865 and began planting vineyards and orchards. They used local materials to build their house which is of Danish vernacular design. The Jensens made this ranch an important civic, social, business, and agricultural center.
Very awesome tour ! Our tour guide was amazing very knowledgeable & sweet thank you ms. Davis ! If you love history def a place to check out. Don’t forget to call & schedule a tour they DO NOT give FREE tours of the home/museum - you are free to walk around property at no cost they have livestock on site you can visit & plenty of open space to walk around enjoy the outdoors
It was a wonderful place to bring my two restless kiddos! We pet horses and see new born lambs! The staff was so, so nice and happy to answer questions!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree
I liked it . However it was the Fall Festival and the museum was closed. There were six horses, chickens,and two donkeys we feed carrots to. I really liked walking in the house and the hay ride was a surprise. I would have liked to have more information on the ranch. So that lack of info left me with a 4 star rating. I think more vending both with food choices would have worked. I would have loved to be a tour guide here. It was a nice ranch with an olive grove.
Talk about hidden gem. Practically camouflaged in a small suburb it's an incredible historic ranch. Highly recommend. Awesome tour for kid ‍‍5 - 14‍‍, handmade icecream at the end
Came for the Civil War re-enactment. Pretty rare on the West Coast but informative and impressive and loud!
We had a great time with my daughter's class field trip. I think our favorite parts were the tortilla, the ice cream and the lovely stories!
Very interesting place. It was worth taking a look around and imagining what life would have been like on a farm. Old buildings and old tractors were there so you get a sense of what it looked like back then.
Went on a school field trip here. Our day was packed with activities that kept the kids busy for our entire time there.
I would like to see more of this ranch when it fully opens
