This place was surprisingly fun! My dad used to work on Caterpillar equipment so he took us around and introduced us to his world. It’s spread out over many acres so be ready to walk. If it’s rainy I highly recommend rain boots. It was very muddy. Lots of photo opportunities. Great for all ages.

A hidden gem within Vista! A beautiful 55-acres full of history. Friendly, helpful volunteers and a calendar full of interesting events. Check out the Vista Gem & Mineral Show 2x’s a year in April & October. So many wonderful events throughout the year. If you enjoy walking around and going to artisan type events check this place out. Bring sunscreen if you go, it does get hot and cash for purchases! 😉

It was amazing, they have so many things to see. For those interested in history and the evolution of the 20th century, the staff were friendly and admission is nearly free. $4 dollars for 2 adults and a child free. They need volunteers, and I'm planning on joining myself, go see it for yourself.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I'm traveling for work, staying in La Mesa without a vehicle. What is the best way to get there without a ride? I'm going to the mini Maker faire on Saturday.

Andrew Greiner | Aug 18, 2018
David Forester | Aug 18, 2018

It is a 30+ minute walk from the Sprinter Station, not sure about buses, and you would be starting in La Mesa, so I would recommend paying for a direct ride there if you can.
