The site, a National, State and Long Beach Historic Landmark, also includes historic gardens and a research library and archives.
Rancho Los Cerritos is open to the public Wednesday through Sunday from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., except on major holidays. Guided tours are available of the house and gardens free of charge.
