Public Tours
Regular Docent-conducted tours of the Queen Anne style Victorian are
offered three days a week on Wednesdays and Sundays from 12 to 4 p.m.
and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Group tours can be arranged with
reservations at least 2 weeks in advance and may be scheduled seven days
a week. We kindly request a $5 donation per visitor. Please note that
the Camarillo Ranch acts as an event center with many weddings, receptions
and private events scheduled throughout the year. Your tour time may be
subject to scheduling around these events.
Visitors are able to walk through the richly restored ranch home and
experience the grandeur of residing in a 6,000 square-foot house. The
breathtaking Victorian exhibits two staircases, 12-foot ceilings, extensive
interior woodwork, and a generous wrap around porch. Guests are also invited
to stroll through the gardens, explore the massive root system of the
towering Moreton Bay Fig Tree, and visit the gift shop. Public restrooms
are available as well as free on site parking and street parking.
Tours of the home are approximately 50 to 60 minutes and include walking
and some stairs. We recommend allowing at least 1 hour and 15 minutes
for your visit to the Camarillo Ranch. The Camarillo Ranch is wheelchair
accessible on the first floor of the home; however, wheelchairs are not
available for rental. Guided group tours are available, by reservation,
seven days a week.
There is bench seating available on the property as well as beverages
for sale in the gift shop. Groups can bring sack lunches or order catered
box lunches for lawn area picnics. A listing of local restaurants is also
available upon request. If you need any additional information please
feel free give us a call at (805) 389-8182 or e-mail us at info@camarilloranch.org
