You don’t need to buy tickets but you do need a reservation. It’s a beautiful places to hang out for a while. Picnics a not allowed.

This is a beautiful place and it's great for family with kids. The mansion spans 46,000 sqft on a 6.5 ha land. You can easily get lost if you do not follow signs there. It has many sections with different gardens. The most famous is the cypress walk and the grand stairs where many movies were made. It's free for public access and free for non-professional photos. Park rangers are ACTIVELY patron the entire estate to make sure everything is in order all the times. Plenty of parking space and they do have multiple public restrooms in the facility. Not sure about handicap friendly or not since there are many stairs.

This mansion is gorgeous and it was the most expensive mansion in California when it was built in the 1920s. It's currently owned by the Beverly Hills city government and is open for public visit on Wed to Fri and select weekend dates. Reservation is required in advance but admission is free. This is the filming location for some famous movies such as Spider Man and Gilmore Girls. I believe this place is open for wedding/event rentals as well, and I'd say this is one of the more affordable event venue in LA.

::Review of the grounds:: This property is soaked with history and views that can easily fill a couple hours of outdoor fun. There are few signs detailing the property’s storied history so make sure you read-up a bit beforehand; though, even without any knowledge one should be able to enjoy this place. Also, wear comfortable shoes (it’s on a hill).

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Manuel Ruiz | Aug 21, 2021
Sergio San | Sep 25, 2021

Yes you need reservation. When my wife and I visited we didn't know this. We went to the gate talk to security and they did let us go in. We got lucky because it was a slow day and we were coming from San Diego, she gave us a break. There was no charge for taking pictures and we saw people with professional cameras. There was no one prohibiting us from taking pictures

Is there a charge to go and see the mansion?

Don Jones | Aug 22, 2018
Cherie B Joy | Aug 22, 2018

You can go indide once a month for a fee..1st Saturday..unless the Fruends of Greystone yave a membership only event. Sometimes a wedding venue or film schedule will prevent inside tour. I went ladt Saturday of February,but plan to join as member and depending on level will be invited to a few events inside and out. The outside visit was more than worth my trip from New York state. I was born in Southgate, CA in 1947 and just recently came home. The grounds are awesome and of course the architecture and historical significance of Greystone were on my bucket list. I plan on returning, becoming a member and purchasing numerous books about Greystone.
