Nice parc only entered first half hour from parking lot. Many nice people, excellent view on Bay. Good hiking experience, both medium and steep option possible directly from start.

An oasis with lots to do-options including tours of the 31 room house, horseback riding, and a moderate three mile hike loop to Inspiration Point.

The views were breathtaking. Unfortunately the house was not open because we arrived very early to hike the Inspiration loop trail. We did encounter a horse stable while hiking this trail. It was so cute and we got to see a few horses. They also had a section that had displayed a few historical farming equipment. I liked how educational this place was. It was an amazing learning experience. It's a great place to take your kids and your four legged friends.

Great place, close to LA, to get out and enjoy some open spaces. The tour of Will Rogers house is packed with his personal belongings and there is a small visitor center that provides a great opportunity to get to know the personality of this legendary star. The surrounding grounds are scattered with people picnicking, hiking or just taking in the amazing panoramic views of the LA basin. Hiking trails stretch off into the hills and there is a loop trail that starts and finishes near the historic stables. Highly recommended visit either for a couple hours or take your time to bring some food and sports gear and enjoy the wide open grass spaces of the large polo field grounds. There is a charge to park but totally worth it for this hidden gem.
