Cavallo Point
A Cup of Jo linked earlier this week to Abbey's "staycation" post, and it got me thinking about taking a quick local retreat. Cavallo Point, which opens its doors next week, is definitely on my list of places to check out soon.


The property is situated in Fort Baker (Marin Headlands) and offers amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge. Of the two types of accomodations available historic (top photo) or contemporary (bottom photo) I would go with the former. The historic rooms are located in turn-of-the-century Colonial Revival buildings that were originally the Fort Baker Officers Residences.
I love that they're going to offer creative arts and culinary arts programs. Oh, and there's a spa for Jon as well.
