| When you drive down the shady lane to the
Camarillo Ranch, a museum house in Camarillo, Calif. hardly visible
from the Interstate 101 Highway, a colorful red barn greets you at
the parking lot. The Camarillo Ranch is one of California's gems, a
preserved house of Camarillo's founding family.
So out of place amongst new shopping centers and
housing developments, the charm of the Camarillo Ranch makes it
sought after as a wedding venue especially.
With special events throughout the year, docents
clad in 19th century costumes lead guests through the historic house
filled with artifacts, antiques, photos and memories of life over
100 years ago in the Central Coast region.
Open to the public most weekends, take the time to
veer off the busy interstate to explore this treasure. We've taken
many friends, travel writers, reporters, vacationers, and family
members to this special place...and we don't live anywhere near
Camarillo!
Each has said, "Thank you!" and mentioned surprise
to find something so hidden and so nice. We think you'll agree
that the early days as seen through the eyes of the Camarillo family
offers quite an appeal!
