General Vallejo's Home reviews
8I loved this historic place. Beautiful historic houses in a beautiful scenery. The front staff was welcoming. They explained some historic facts and gave us an overview of the place. I highly recommend walking from downtown to this tucked-in place to get a full sense of Sonoma’s history and landscape.
This was an interesting history to see his home and learn the history of the general and his family. You can go inside the house and see the decorated rooms. Walk the grounds as you can see how the General had a natural spring that he made into the Sanoma first water company. There are other buildings on site to see also.
The 3.00 is good to see three different attractions in the area.
Docent provided information sheet for self guided tour. Historic home, peaceful lake with turtles, interesting landscaping that attracts various wildlife.
Very interesting historical building, it’s important to see where and how California began its journey.
General Vallejo's home was absolutely stunning. It was left exactly the way they lived, and it felt warm and cozy. So much history here, he had a family of 16 children and most of them lived here at some point in time. You might not feel alone while touring this magnificent house, I think some of the family still are enjoying their home, while welcoming you in.
After wine tasting we decided to make a visit. I'm so glad we did, it was nice to learn about General Vallejo and his family.
It's an interesting place to visit. Lots of artifacts and history to it. It has a very peaceful feeling to it if you hang out in the picnic area. For$3 it's worth a visit. The day we went they had a special where we were able to visit the mission near by for free.
