Path of Gold Light Standards

Casa Madrona, originally built in 1885 as a luxurious Italian Villa by lumber baron William G. Barrett, has a rich history that reflects the changing tides of Sausalito. Transitioning from a family home to a guest house, hotel, and even a restaurant, the building has served various purposes throughout the years, including temporary lodging for military families during World War II.

After facing deterioration and the threat of demolition in the 1970s, Casa Madrona was rescued by John Mays, who restored the property and expanded it with hillside cottages. Today, it continues to operate as a hotel and spa, preserving its historical significance while catering to modern visitors.
