Casa Madrona, originally built as an Italian Villa country home in 1885 by lumber baron William G. Barrett, has a rich history that includes serving as a guest house and later a hotel. Over the years, it has transformed from a luxurious retreat into a hub for military families during World War II, before becoming a haven for the beatnik community.
After a period of neglect, the property was renovated in 1959 and opened as Le Vivoir Restaurant, gaining a reputation as one of the Bay Area's most exclusive dining establishments. Today, Casa Madrona operates as a hotel and spa, preserving its historical charm while offering modern amenities to guests.
