If in the area I do recommend taking a little time to walk through the home!

Nice historic home to visit! It was free entry, they do have a donation box once you enter the home if you like. Lots of things in the home on display are original from the time period or replica or what was originally in the home. Able to walk through almost the entire home, with each room having different info to read through and they even have a cell phone tour as you’re walking through, but we didn’t do that and went at our own pace. The third story is the attic space which was neat because there is another set of stairs leading up to the bell tower and observation area and at the bottom of those stairs you can ring the bell. Once you climb up those stairs it is a nice 360° view, not a lot of space, room for about 4-5 people, but very pretty view and windows all around! If in the area I do recommend taking a little time to walk through the home! I added some pictures, but didn’t want to give the whole tour myself, lol!

Just did a quick trip to this Bay Area gem. Even though the actual home is closed right now during the pandemic, the property is open and beautiful. There is a cell phone guided tour that was easy. The rangers are friendly & knowledgeable. Ripe fruit from the orchards is available to visitors! The kids can participate in the Jr. Ranger program too. We are looking forward to returning when the home is open and participating in other programs.

A great smaller National Historic Site with John Muirs historic home and property. The home is in great condition and so are the orchards and land around the property. Well worth a visit if in the area, and completely free.
