Smalltown Marin County lightyears from San Francisco by Cary Ordway
As if the sights and sounds of San Francisco weren't enough to keep visitors completely enthralled, Mother Nature invites you to drive just a few minutes north of the city, across the Golden Gate Bridge and into a suburban area that seems like the other side of the planet from downtown.
That's why Marin County is an attractive place to live -- as much as half the acreage is in open space, so residents enjoy an endless selection of trails and visitas, all quite clost to home. It's expensive to live here, all right, but then how many places offer you a multi-cultural city of sophistication on one side of the bridge, and quiet trails and solitude on the other? If you crave recreation in the Great Outdoors but drive a Mercedes, you just might be a Marin County resident.
What's nice is that any of us can stop by and experience -- for a weekend, anyway -- this lifestyle for ourselves. We took a little time to visit the southern part of the county, setting up our base of operations at the San Anselmo Inn, a charming European-style lodging in Northern California's antiquing capital, San Anselmo. It was easy to drive short distances from there to explore many nearby attractions and communities;
The San Anselmo Inn is on San Anselmo Avenue, an especially enchanting downtown street that gently winds its way through the town's historic buildings. The streets in this area are narrow and buildings close together, so the European feeling extends well beyond the inn itself. On a bright fall weekday, a wide variety of shops and stores including 130 antique dealers -- welcomed locals and visitors alike. It wasn't a busy atmosphere, but more a casual, relaxed feel that seemed ideal for the many young mothers and babies we noticed enjoying a stroll on this colorful street.
Everything in this small town is within walking distance of the inn. We would explore the town's shops, or hike nearby trails and then return to our comfortable room at the inn. The innkeepers, Julie and Peter McNair, have taken care to give each room a historical feel befitting their building, which was one of the first built in the area as the new railroad line facilitated the development of San Anselmo and nearby towns. Our room was spacious for a bed-and-breakfast inn and featured a four-poster bed, marble-top vanity, antique desk, nightstands and cabinets and, in the private bathroom, a Jacuzzi style tub. Breakfast was a special treat at the inn a delightful Spanish quiche, lots of fresh muffins and pastries, waffles, fruit, juices, cereals and all served in a pleasant and spacious dining area.
After breakfast, it was off to experience some local recreation, and one nearby hike recommended to us was the Phoenix Lake Trail, a 2.8-mile that takes visitors around the lake through a mixture of oak, bay and redwood trees. This trail was easy to find, but you might have to wait for a parking spot. Local joggers and walkers love the combination of lush redwood forests, lake views and wide trails, so the 20-plus parking stalls were full-up when we visited about 9 a.m. on a Wednesday. No matter, though we only had to wait about 10 minutes.
Another local point of interest is the San Francisco Theological Seminary, which relocated its school here from San Francisco in 1892. You can't miss the seminary with its castle-like grand stone buildings standing above Ross Valley.
You'll also find history in the many old-time buildings downtown, which are part of a self-guided walking tour prepared by local historians. At the inn, you can pick up a copy of a very detailed magazine produced by the San Anselmo Historical Commission, which provides an excellent description, history and photo of each of the town's major historical points of interest. Be sure to check out the Robson-Harrington House and Park, the Carnegie Library and the American Legion Log Cabin.
About a 15-minute drive south from San Anselmo took us to one of the other scenic bedroom communities of Marin County Tiburon.
If you're looking for scenic vistas of the San Francisco skyline across the bay, this is the place. Tiburon is a four-mile-long peninsula that is positioned just across the bay from the city and, because of that, offers some of the most sought-after real estate in the area. The views of San Francisco Bay, the city and the Golden Gate Bridge are breathtaking.
Be prepared for slow traffic that last four miles going into Tiburon the two-lane highway gets busy in both directions, especially in summer when there is apt to be some type of road construction activity. As you drive along the peninsula, be sure to look to the south, where what must be the World's Most Expensive Soccer Field is located on a long swath of view property (all in the spirit, of course, of Marin County's love affair with open space).
The town of Tiburon looks almost like any modern suburban town until you get to the edge of downtown where a couple of blocks of historic buildings and nearby marina give the feeling of a New England fishing village. It's apparent this is the place locals go to soak up the views, walk or run the shoreline trail or, for the less ambitious, just hunker down at one of the dockside outdoor restaurants for drinks and maybe a seafood lunch. Numerous fishing and tour boats are tied up at the pier, and a popular day trip is to take the regular ferry service six miles over to Angel Island State Park for an afternoon of hiking and exploration.
Tiburon's historic Main Street is known as "Ark Row" because of the 1890s houseboat lifestyle enjoyed by the town's earliest residents. Today, the arks are gone and the bay shopping district includes a number of upscale boutiques as well as the occasional tourist shop. The nearby walking path, with its views of the city, is considered one of the most romantic spots in Bay area.
Another nearby city that's just minutes away from San Anselmo is Larkspur, whose downtown area is officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places. If you want to see what San Francisco's suburbs looked like at the turn of the century, check out the town's historical buildings, many of them Queen Anne Victorians. The historic downtown area is west of Highway 101.
It's also in this area that you can hop a ferry to San Francisco. A foot bridge over the highway will take you to Golden Gate Ferry terminal where you can get on a ferry departing for the San Francisco Ferry Building. The ferry ride is a great place to get photos of such attractions as Mt. Tamalpais, the Golden Gate Bridge and picturesque Angel Island.
Nearby San Rafael is a bit larger city in fact the largest in Marin County. The downtown shopping area offers the stores, ethnic restaurants, large banks and other services that aren't found in the smaller towns of Marin. It's the only place in these parts where you see high-rise buildings yet there still is a lot of rich, Victorian architecture that gives San Rafael a feel all of its own.
One particular point of interest is the authentic re-creation of Mission San Rafael Arcangel. This was founded in 1817 and today you can visit a replica of the original mission and tour a museum. Also check out the Marin County Historical Society Museum and the Falkirk Cultural Center.
AT A GLANCE
WHERE: San Anselmo and other nearby Marin County cities are located just a few miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge. .
WHAT: These southern Marin County communities are a little bit off the beaten path for tourists, but each of the cities and towns offers a distinct character and charm, and are fun to explore.
WHEN: Year-round. Bring warm clothing because it can get cold in the Bay area, which often is compared with SEattle for its sometimes damp climate. Even in the warmest summer months, the occasional cold weather can settle in. But often you'll find bright sunshine.
WHY: The "bedroom" communities north of San Francisco offer their own charm, as well as plenty of fun in the Great Outdoors.
HOW: For more information on Marin County, phone (866) 925-2060 toll free or go to www.visitmarin.org.
