There is an area where you can go in with the goats, plus the farmhouse, which is an interesting historical ranch home. But the best part is all of the open space and trails. We spent a lovely afternoon walking all over.

A cool little ranch to check out. There are a few historical buildings and even a small farm you can go in with a few goats and chickens.

Great place for the family to visit. Its like going back in time seeing the old blacksmith barn, school house, farm animal petting area, and hiking trails amongst the old California oak trees.

Wonderful location as a trailhead for so many possible hikes in the area. With displays of past agriculture tools that can interest youngsters as well as adults, and a nice shade with picnic tables, it is the best for a family or friends get together time.

A wonderful excursion for family and friends. The former cattle ranch stands as it did at the turn of the last century. Complete with chickens, roosters, goats, and sheep, you can walk around with the animals and even pet them. If you love hiking this is a great spot. Trails offer breathtaking views of rolling hills. Its free!In winter months, Ranger Bruce opens the blacksmithing shed and you can make a hook for 5 bucks! (by appointment only)

A great place to take little kids to pet chickens, goats, and pigs. There you can see Old Farm Equipment and on special days they have demonstrations of blacksmith shops another old farm equipment. The historic house is it great to peek inside the windows.
