Doors open to 5 distinctly different residences in major fundraiser for historical society
The Idyllwild Area Historical Society’s 2024 Home Tour is scheduled for Sept. 14, It will include five houses, including this restored 1936 home that is reminiscent of a rustic lodge. Craftsmanship and artistry will be on display when the Idyllwild Area Historical Society conducts its 22nd annual Home Tour next Saturday, presenting five unique private homes in the major fundraiser for the nonprofit group.
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., visitors can tour the distinctly different properties in Idyllwild, a community with no two homes alike. Some homes and cabins have custom workmanship and features created by local craftsmen, as well as unique artworks. Others may have been restored or renovated while maintaining rustic charm.
On the day of the event, ticket books with maps and home details can be picked up at a will call booth starting at 9 a.m. in the center of town, between the Idyllwild Monument and the Idyllwild Inn, across from Idyllwild Park. Guests will then drive to each home guided by signs and arrows, and volunteer parkers will help manage traffic. Homes will be staffed by experienced docents.
Homes may not be wheelchair accessible, and walking surfaces may be rocky or uneven. Good walking shoes, a hat and water are recommended. Refreshments will be served at the Idyllwild Area Historical Society Museum Garden, 54470 North Circle Drive, where local artists will display their work. Tickets are $30; advance purchase is suggested, at idyllwildhistory.org. Tickets are also available from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekends at the IAHS Museum. Limited tickets may be available on the day of the event at will call.
