"A surviving example of Hispanic adobe influence on pioneer American period in pastoral California, Don Vicente de la Osa built this adobe ranchhouse in the 1840's, after; purchasing Rancho El Encino. James Thompson bought the ranch in 1867 and sold it in 1869 to Eugene Garnier. Garnier developed a sheep ranch here. The property and the old adobe residence passed through other owners, and was acquired in 1891 by Domingo Amestoy. The various owners continued to use the adobe as a residence. At one time it became a stagecoach stop." (
