    Was a great stop. There is plenty to see. Our tour guide was excellent. He knew lots about the buildings that are there. It was an eye opener to see how people lived in the early 1900's.

    Very cool. Good hearty tour on the history of the Ware family and how it became Stanley. Unexpected lot of historical buildings which included the original Walt Disney garage. Highly recommend. Tour was about 1.5 hours.

    This is the most wonderful tour. Our school goes there often and the students just love it! They get to see a home almost 200 years old and before electricity. They learn how people ironed, how they made butter, how they washed clothes. They get to "attend" a classroom and girls wear the old-fashioned bonnets while boys don the farmer hats. Students then see a home from the 1930s and get to compare how they made toast, refrigerated their foods, and washed clothes. It's a beautiful site and I'm so happy students can attend and be hands-on!!

    This is a great tour! For five dollars a person min requested donation, it is a bargain. There are many vintage buildings on the property and the docent who took our group around was very knowledgable. The tour takes around 1.5-2 hours depending on how many questions are asked. It can be warmer in the summer but there are cool breezes to be found. The grounds are beautiful and the property is steeped in history. The buildings date as far back as the 1900's.

    I attended a wonderful tour on Sunday! The guide was very helpful and we all asked many questions about the historic artifacts, structures and way of life in these early days of Orange County. I highly recommend attending a tour and checking out the sales. :)

    I went to one of their sales that they have, and although the place is so beautiful, the sale was not exactly as described. I was kind of hoping for more than extremely old books and other small items. But I did buy something and the place is so beautiful and it also does take you back to a older simpler time. So I love the place but the sale was just not quite what I had hoped it would be.

    Love this place. Lots of interesting things to see. They even have Walt Disney's uncle's original barn there. Lots of history!

    Have been enjoying the barn and book sales every April and October now for many years. So many great finds ! The staff are always very attentive and helpful. Without having to ask. Look forward to seeing everyone at each sale. Thanks

    Interesting and historic buildings, as well as beautiful flowers.the garage studio that Walt Disney first used after he moved to Los Angeles has been relocated here. it's filled with many Disney collectibles from different eras. It's fun to think that Walt Disney himself once did work in this very building. The volunteer docents are very friendly and helpful with information about the various structures displayed.
