THe Rancho is open for only a limited time just a few hours on Sunday.I am not sure if it is still open on Saturday We arrived at about 1:30 pm and a docent waved us over to join a tour. Apparently you have to be a part of a tour to look around. Unfortunately the docent went into a lot of unnecessary detail, but some of things he said were informative. It was not clear where to park which we realized when we walked in that there was parking furthur in.The beautiful barn and winery were not open to the public and it would have been amazing to look inside. The winery needs a new roof and the foundation needs to be redone. Where is the funding for this ?? Only a small part of the Rancho living area was accessible also. It would have been nice to see into the other rooms. Then the sprinklers were on and we had to dodge them. Why not have them on when visitors are there. Why is there not funding to have timers so that they go off at night, Or where is the funding for a proper system !! The building near the road was not mentioned and was closed. The rose garden was not mentioned and I did not see it until we were leaving. So much more could be done here. But never the less an interesting place.
