Tour the North Star House
OPEN HOUSES – OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Tuesday & Thursday mornings – 10am – 12 pm
There will occasionally be a day that it is not open due to other things happening at the house.
History Docents will be at the house to provide informal tours or answer questions about the North Star House, Julia Morgan, Arthur D. and Mary Hallock Foote, and more.
A self-guided Landscape Tour.
In addition to being a brilliant mining engineer and superintendent of the North Star Mine, Arthur D. Foote was a horticulturalist. He designed an Edwardian landscape surrounding the House. You can see some of his original plantings which are still on the property. Our Heritage Garden honors his design and plant selections.
