HIDDEN VALLEY LAKE, Calif. – Concord resident Barbara Lafaver Gleason toured Stone House Museum recently and was so impressed with its historical preservation that she donated her grandmother’s crocheted bedspread.

“I’d been searching for a home for my heirloom bedspread,” Gleason said. “My grandmother, Davina McWatt, crocheted the bedspread around 1930-1932 in Glouscester, Virginia. She was related to John Muir and was born in Stirling, Scotland.”

Free tours of Stone House Museum are the second Saturday of each month, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Located at 18174 Hidden Valley Road in Hidden Valley Lake, the house is a California State Historical Monument.

For entrance to Hidden Valley Lake’s gated community, visitors should enter at the Hartmann Road gate and say they’re touring Stone House.
