Pets are not allowed at Sunnylands. However, state and federal laws require the admittance of dogs that are trained to provide a service to disabled guests. Emotional support animals are not covered under the law. Please see the full policy regarding pets here. 

Visits to Sunnylands Center & Gardens are free of charge. Tours of the historic estate, as well as some special programs and workshops, require a fee and, in the case of the house, advance reservations.

Visitors are welcome to take photos and videos of Sunnylands Center & Gardens and when touring the estate’s grounds for their personal use. However, staged photos (wedding, engagement, graduation, school teams, etc.) are not allowed as it disturbs other guests. For the full photography policy please see Dos and Don’ts.

Additional information about Sunnylands can be found in various books published by Sunnylands Press and available in the Gift Shop.
