Grant House Tour, Joseph D. Grant County Park, 6/18/22 by Ronald Horii
On 6/18/22, there was a grand re-opening of the Grant Ranch House in Joseph D. Grant County Park. This shows the re-opening ceremony, views around the ranch house, and informational signs about the rehabilitation process: https://tinyurl.com/2bxwwtpz. After the ceremony, the visitors got to take a self-guided tour of the ranch house. Normally, the house is only open for guided tours, where a park staff member or docent will show guests around and will describe each of the rooms.
