Our family of three had at wonderful week-long stay at Dan’s house in Glen Park. Dan had prepared a warm welcome for us at his home, which is suffused with light and an organic connection to nature. From the living room, we had wonderful views of the stars and landing airplanes flickering in the night sky over San Francisco Bay, while hummingbirds fluttered about the bird feeders during the day. The collection of geodes and sculptures—along with the whimsy of children's toys, books, and art—conveyed the feeling of an inquiring and open spirit. Expressed in this eclectic collection of wonderful books, City Retreat continually fascinates. We hope to stay at City Retreat again in future visits to the Bay area.
