The delightful downtown Larkspur, the very heart of Marin County, is highlighted with a stunning variety of gourmet restaurants, cafes, shops, and avant-garde clothing stores all within an easy distance from the property.   While chic and modern, Larkspur retains its old-fashioned, relaxed small-town atmosphere, beloved to visitors and proud residents as well.
