LA Times A National Park Lodge With Golden Gate Views
A former Army post within Golden Gate National Park is poised to become a luxury resort that emphasizes the environment, lifelong learning and comfort. When it opens this summer, Cavallo Point, the Lodge at Golden Gate, will be San Francisco Bay's only urban national park lodge. The group of historic buildings on expansive grounds is a mile from Sausalito in the former Ft. baker. The compound features rooms that are a century apart in character and style. The 74 newly constructed contemporary guest rooms were built with sustainable materials and include organic bedding, radiant heating and solar power. The post's early-1900s colonial Revival officers' quarters were restored to become 68 rooms and suites that feature tin ceilings, porches and fireplaces. The resort will also feature a spa, a bay-side restaurant, and lifestyle programs such as photography classes, cooking seminars and olive oil tastings.
