I went mainly to see the magnificent outdoor train set and it was awesome. The rest of the place is very nice very pretty and if you have younger children there is a farm area that they would enjoy. Actually my wife and I enjoyed it to we sat and had lunch at the picnic benches near the farm. The gardens are very nice no matter what the season. There is a nice walking trail through the fields. Now back to the trains one of the best train setups I’ve ever seen probably a city block and half long and 1/2 block wide. It takes you around the country and is set up beautifully many different areas are shown including Lincoln’s funeral train and the old west I loved and and will revisit this place often

The 49er is like a trip back in time. you sit in your car and watch the movie starting at dusk. There is an old fashioned concession stand. Get there early for a good spot! bring a blanket if it is chilly and bug spray if it is hot.

First off, kudos to Balarie the waitress. We sat outside and she was one of the servers. I mention her because she was the only server when we arrived. We were there several hours listening to the music, (great musician), and enjoying the wines. She hustled the entire time. She had such a sweet personality and was so efficient I just had to mention her first. The wines are very good. The outside seating is very nice. The music was great. We had such a nice time there. The only thing that needs work is the gourmet cheese tray. I was extremely disappointed in that. We go to MANY wineries in our travels and this cheese tray was sad. It needs work. That being said, we will be back. We all had a very nice time.
