Larkspur

Larkspur is a city with a narrow main street and a line of wonderful shops and restaurants, tree-lined and perfect for strolling. Just north of Corte Madera, it’s also nestled at the base of the magnificent Mount Tamalpais. Larkspur is well known for that perfect main street and the beautifully restored downtown. A short walk from the center, Madrone Canyon has a cozy children’s park surrounded by redwood groves and eventually leads to hiking trails that can take you along creeks and up the slopes of Mt. Tamalpais. Larkspur is home to some of Marin’s older, intact neighborhoods, many of them beautiful early 20th century cottages that have been updated and restored into some of the county’s more desirable homes.
