A very large 2 story adobe completely restored. The house is furnished, the blacksmith shop is stocked up, the laundry is prepared for work, the storage room is full. Tours of the house and gardens are available. Small gift shop. Lots of parking. Large native plant garden.

This museum is very small, but still has some cool art that I recommend people observe and experience. Plus, admission is free.
I love this place. Been going since I was a child and it never disappoints. The ambiance and historical nature of the rancho will never be forgotten.
Took the self guided tour but I would recommend the tour for first timers.

Beautiful old historic rancho dating back to the mid-1800s, with free guided docent tours as well as self-guided tours. Entrance and parking are free. There are donation boxes, but that is optional. The surrounding lovely grounds make for a relaxing walk. It's tucked away behind a golf course in Long Beach and most people don't even know it's there. We visited on a Sunday afternoon and it felt like we had the place to ourselves. Our docent guide, John, was very knowledgeable and fun to talk with. It was a great way to spend a nice afternoon.

Beautiful day for a self-tour of the grounds, exhibits and very interesting history from amiable docents who just love THE place and ITS place in LB Rancho history. And now, so do I.

A relatively undiscovered gem in the city. Rancho Los Cerritos is historic site with the most impressive adobe residence, beautiful landscaped grounds. This place offers an informative look about the rich history of Spanish, Mexican and American California. They also offer educational programs.

Such a beautiful place and a piece of history not to be missed. Everyone was very welcoming and my volunteer guide Raúl was very knowledgeable and generous with his time.

The gardens are a wonderful place to spend some time and although I ran out of time, there is an exhibition about the Home, as well.

The LBMA Downtown is horrible! It is unsafe to visit, as they allow the homeless to camp in their doorways and loiter, visibly harassing visitors and those passing by! Stay home and avoid being harassed!
540 slingers. Free parking area.
Alice and Wonderland Event was Spectacular and Fun!!! It was a great Day Out with Family and Friends..
Excellent tours of the house and grounds. Our tour guides were knowledgeable and fun! Learned so much about history, trees, flowers and fruit. Highly recommend visiting this beautiful property!!

It's a great place to check it out. You can reserve your spot online. It's free. You can spend an hour/ and hour and a half here. Waking around and see the flowers. You can take pictures. You can also visit the house inside and see how things were.
I mostly go for special events.
Went to a summer bilingual children's story and activity hour. My granddaughter was actually a little younger than it was geared to but she got to fully participate! The books that were read were very good. I have bought her 3 from one of the authors because they were beautiful books with great easy stories and amazing pictures. Never would have found them if it wasn't for this program!
Recently went to a celebration of life for a friend. The outside area was very nice. They had tables and chairs set up. There's a huge tree that makes lots of shade.
Next week I will be back for the Long Beach Beer Fest that they have been doing for the last few years as a fundraiser. It's always nice. And the people who attend are responsible drinkers so, no stupid drunks allowed! And they have security that helps keep it that way. Families come and there is food.
This was very relaxing
Good place for weekend
Lovely place to see modern art. It's free to enter, and there is a small lot behind it with free parking. We spent about 30 min there, and the docent was very kind.
Un lugar pequeño pero con una historia inmensa inimaginable Dios bendiga a los salvavidas

This was my first time here. The current exhibit, Praxis, is beautifully presented and the opening reception was well attended and I enjoyed having the opportunity to talk with some of the artists.
Good experience with the lifeguard s
