Originally belonging to the Folger family (of Folgers Coffee fame) this estate was used as a warm country getaway from San Francisco's cold summers. In 2010 the Folger Stable and surrounding buildings opened to the public after extensive renovations. The site remains an enchanting example of the bygone "great estates" era.
Carriage Room Museum
The original Carriage Room within the main stable has been transformed into a magnificent museum that showcases our local history, including the lumbering, farming, and great estate eras. The Carriage Room museum is open to the public on Saturdays & Sundays from 12:00pm - 3:00pm.
