This 7.8-acre county park, dedicated to preservation of Victorian architecture of the 1880s, contains seven original 19th-century houses moved here from other places and given new leases on life. Among them are a bed-and-breakfast, a doll shop, and a gift shop. The small, charming synagogue at the entrance, Temple Beth Israel, was built in 1889 in Classic Revival style and relocated here in 1989. The San Diego County Parks department operates an information and reservation center out of the Sherman-Gilbert House; it's open Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm.
