Nanichant Inn
Hotel Narrichant or Nanichant Inn as it was sometimes called was built in 1889 at the base of Nanichant Rock.  Narrichant was an Indian name meaning echo.  It included guest rooms upstairs, a large stone fireplace, grand reception room, and ballroom with a veranda sheltering the front and sides of the hotel.  Local produce was sold there to support the surrounding ranches.  The hotel’s Concord Stagecoach, pulled by four horses and accompanied by a bugler traveled to Greenland and Larkspur daily to pick up guests.  The building was destroyed by fire in the 1920’s.
