6th Anniversary Getaway


We celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary this weekend with a quick getaway to Cavallo Point Lodge in Sausalito--only about 45 minutes away! It was our first overnight trip without both little rascals, which was sad but much needed!!

We started the day with breakfast at the Dipsea Cafe in Mill Valley and then walked around downtown Mill Valley. We stopped at Tyler Florence's store and bought Brookey some Popsicle molds :-) Then we drove allllll the way to the top of Mt. Tam where we saw amazing views of Stinson Beach, four bridges and of course San Francisco. We couldn't believe how great the weather was considering they had been threatening rain all week.

After that, we checked into the hotel. It was AWESOME. It sits right at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge with panoramic views of San Francisco. Scott and I just sat out on the deck with wine and couldn't believe the awesome view--and the cloudless sky! It's located at Fort Baker, and old Army base and all the rooms are historic, converted officer's quarters. They apparently have a top notch spa that has been written up in several magazines, but unfortunately, by the time we checked in, there just wasn't time to enjoy it. Next time!!!!

We topped off the night with a four course Chef's tasting menu at the restaurant, Murray Circle which was about a 30 second walk from our room. Awesome food, awesome wine, perfect weather. We cannot wait to go back!!! We would both HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Cavallo Point to anyone. It's definitely one of the most unique places we have ever stayed.
