The historic house, associated displays and landscaped grounds introduce visitors to the people and changes that shaped the Pajaro Valley.
Check the historical association’s current opening sessions and appointment arrangements before arriving at East Beach Street. Access to interiors follows the visitor program rather than unrestricted daily entry. The photograph shows the house exterior behind its trees, not the current exhibits.
