Near Balboa Park. Was temporarily closed a few years ago. Knowledgeable docents. Took my brother who loves craftman architecture and he was inpressed!

We finally made it to this museum, after numerous visits to the area. Definitely be aware of their dates and hours of operation. GPS got us there with no problem and (probably because it wasn't a weekend) we were able to find street parking nearby. Their website gives directions also to a lot somewhere in the vicinity that shuttles you... More

We read all the reviews on here and thought it sounded good so we decided to go visit.. To bad because once we arrived we learned that it is only open Fri- Mon. So please be aware of this when planning your visit.

Our tour guide, Robert, had a lot of information to share. This is z beautiful home in wonderful Balboa Park and you will learn... More

A lovely home just by Balboa park, if you like historic houses this one is well worth the visit, charming and knowledgeable guides, who are happy to focus on what interests the visitor (as opposed to those who drone on about what they think is important).
