Frequently Asked Questions
When are you open, how much is admission, and how long is the tour?
SFHM is open Wednesday to Saturday, from 9 AM to 4 PM. It's $8 per adult, children 6-12 yrs $5 and children under 5 are free. It takes 1-3 hours to do the driving tour (we no longer offer guided tours) and gates promptly close at 4 so please plan your trip accordingly. If you plan to walk then definitely plan to be at the museum longer as there's 60 acres of places to visit!
How much is the wedding venue and when can I come visit to look?
There are 4 wedding packages to pick from which you can see on the website. To visit the venue and make plans, please drop into the office building on the right side of the red gate on any day we are open to let us know you are there for a possible wedding, and not visitors that need to pay for admission.
