Happy Travels from Inn at the Presidio!

Hello! We are your online guide to all things San Francisco, The Presidio, local parks & museums, Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and more.  Our inn is an adorable historic bachelor's quarters from 1904, restored into a contemporary but classic 22 room Inn.  We open Spring of 2012, and hope to share with you some of the most exciting things from The NPS, the Presidio Trust, it's partners, and the San Francisco Bay at large.  You don't have to stay at our inn to ask questions about the area, or enjoy our posts... just let us know if we can help!.  Thank you, and we hope this finds you well! - Michael from Inn at the Presidio P.S. - you can find us on Twitter, and Facebook too!

This wonderful radio program talks about our inn, but the greater site plan and thoughtful cultivation of how the Presidio will exist as a park for the people!

The Presidio, where the Golden Gate Bridge meets San Francisco, combines beautiful nature with rich historical heritage. The 1,500 acres are part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and are managed by the Presidio Trust which was established by Congress in 1996 when the US Army left the space.
Visitors can explore many hiking trails, campsite and play at the golf course. They can also visit restaurants and cafes, and even a spa. Approximately 8,000 people live, work, or attend school at the Presidio.
But the way the Presidio is choosing to manage the park is creating controversy. Development of the historic property has sparked debate over what the sprawling space should look like and how it can remain financially sustainable.
