There is so much to admire, from the beautiful gardens and unique architecture to the bird enclosures scattered throughout the grounds. My favorite spot was what felt like a greenhouse--a beautiful white building tucked within the park, complete with a gorgeous fountain inside. It felt full of life and had such an ethereal atmosphere. Even the squirrels were curious and interactive, making the experience feel even more alive. There are also several beautiful statues placed throughout the property, giving you something new to discover around every corner. If you're looking for a peaceful place to slow down and appreciate nature, I highly recommend visiting The Heritage. 命に感謝。 @FireLordRia

Some old things that "came with the house" including some antique painted landscapes and an 1882 painting of Yosemite Valley, a 1700's butcher block, an antique telephone, and a pair of wrought iron rooster lamps ended up with my family. There was a stable, horses, and some outbuildings that held my Uncle's 1930's Duesenberg. I visited that place with my family a dozen or more times between 1959 and 1966. There were wedding receptions, family reunions, funerals, or just family get-togethers. There was a massive 20 foot tall avocado tree that grew up the side of the house at the back porch service entrance and we always went home with a large brown paper grocery bag full of avocados. My brother and I loved playing their baby grand piano in their living room and watching Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color and Bonanza on their HUGE 25" color TV set in a large open landing at the top of the stairs. Nobody else we knew had color TV in 1961. It got to be when there were more funerals than weddings, my uncle and aunt either sold or donated the place to the City of Bell Gardens. Lots of fond memories attached to that place. Just a few of us left who remember those days.

Plenty of room so it didn't feel overcrowded either. Only thing watch out for duck poop on the walkways and grass, especially near the water. Overall, great spot for families. Definitely coming back

The George House and Neff Barn are also on site, however they are not part of the tour.

While going through one of the hardest moments in my life I found very little things that would…read morecomfort me. Generally speaking, most people and nurses would understand and have a sense of compassion, it is unfortunate that the few that are not would have to ability to take what little comfort I found while trying to support my husband after having a stroke. I would visit Monday through Sunday attempting to find any sense of normalcy. One particular nurse named Toshi came in an asked, "Do you need anything?" I was assuming he was speaking to my husband the patient (Jonathan) So I did not pay too much attention, he then said that I needed to have the mask on. I completely understood and I told ok I will, I noticed him staring at me so I told him I was going to finish a math problem I was working on really quick, and I will put it on. Within seconds he called the charge nurse, I told the charge nurse the same thing that I was going to put it on I just wanted to finish a math problem before I was timed out. I was confused because I agreed to put it on and I though that if I advised them why I didn't want to stop right away they would understand. I spoke with the doctor because she was advised of the problem, I did not feel a sense of understanding. I understand there are polices and I am also aware of the rise in covid cases, but the truth of the matter is that I kiss my husband and we are well over 6 feet from anyone. I was more than willing to put on a mask, but I guess I did not do it fast enough. As if that was not enough the nurse Toshi returned twice after that, after returning the first time my husband requested a charge nurse to speak to, Toshi failed to get the charge nurse but came back again to provide me with the hospital rules. All I am saying is that I feel these nurses should have some compassion, I agreed to put on the mask, but I felt like a child being scolded. Even after speaking with the doctor, she stated she would switch the nurse but didn't, our concerns fell on deaf ears. It's been hard, if Toshi would have just given me 5 minutes.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience here at Rubel Castle. Our host, guide,…read moreand local "Rubelligent" volunteer, Ms. Kathleen had all the intel about this historical property. She was so knowledgeable and helped set the stage for us to slip into a forgotten era and get a glimpse of how imagination met inventiveness with a DIY charm. ~ A LITTLE BACKSTORY FOR YOU ~ It's not pronounced Rubel as Barney from Flintstones. Rather, it's like Target is to Targét when we are trying to be fancy. So that's Rubel as in "Roo-bell." Unlike modern-day construction, Rubel Castle wasn't built overnight. It was made of collected recyclables and construction rubble that spanned many decades and took several friends and volunteers to build it. For Michael, however, the lifetime inspiration was first sparked at the age of 9. His love for canons was where it started and the rest is history you can hear about on the tour. But don't just show up like we did randomly one day. To book, visit RubelTours.org and make a reservation. ~ OUR TOUR EXPERIENCE ~ It's as if Michael Rubel, the creator and mastermind of this enchanted dominion had intended it to be--magical. Built in the castle period of wood and tin, every corner captured our interests, from antique cars to the 1890's Seth Thomas Tower Clock with a unique backstory (and only six in existence today). There were old vending machines, tools, trinkets, and machinery that time had long forgotten. Did I mention there was a drawbridge? Yes, and a dungeon too. I was just waiting for a dragon to come swoop down on us next. Walk in the footsteps of famous visitors like Alfred Hitchcock, Dwight Eisenhower, Jack Benny, and Bob Hope. It's a feast for the eyes no matter where you glance. I particularly enjoyed the bottle house that Michael built in 1968 as his "home" as a kid. That independent spirit was quite charming to see. ~ WATERCOLOR NATURESCAPE ~ We were fortunate to have our gracious host lead us on a tour and organize a special art crafting experience outdoors. It was absolutely lovely beneath the trees and between rusted vintage cars from the turn of the century. We each got a small canvas to paint our flowers in watercolor. (This particular experience takes place in the Spring and Fall, weather permitting.) We heard the squirrels rattling in the leaves and birds chirped and sang in the trees above. We discovered that peacocks apparently originated from this property, compliments of Michael Rubel. And did I mention that on the far side of the property, a custom garden was in full bloom?

Thanks to the sheer persistence (and probably delightful stubbornness) of Michael Rubel, we now have this quirky, towering State Treasure sitting right in the middle of Glendora like a fairy tale that accidentally took a detour through a hardware store. This place is beautifully done, and part of its charm is that it's a full-on hodgepodge of relics, antiques, crystal trinkets, and "wait... what is that doing here?" moments tucked into every nook and cranny. You'll marvel, you'll laugh, you'll squint in confusion--honestly, it's everything you'd want in a castle built with love, imagination, and a dash of madness. And let's talk about the makeshift cemetery. Quirky? YES. Fun? Absolutely. Slightly spooky? Only if your imagination is over-caffeinated. But it fits the vibe perfectly--like the castle whispered, "You know what I'm missing? A tiny cemetery." The tours are fantastic, the guides are passionate, and the whole experience feels like you're stepping into a living scrapbook of California history and charming chaos. Overall: Amazing, amazing place. Book your tour. They only do tours every first Sunday of the month, so set your alarms, mark your calendars, tie a string around your finger--just don't miss it. Rubel Castle is truly a California State Treasure, and an absolute must-see for anyone who appreciates creativity, history, and a little eccentric sparkle.
