These sites all say "Sausalito". Best guess, Kappas Harbor or Waldo Point, where Hwy 101 meets Bridgeway, the main drag through Sausalito. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/525584218987357033/ http://www.panoramio.com/photo/65281312 https://laundryonsundaes.wordpress.com/tag/parks/

I've looked at the three sites (which all appear to show the same boat), but I think none of them is this one, unless a lot has happened in the years since I took the picture. The roofline is different, and this one lacks the steel stovepipe the other one shows. I'm fairly sure the spot where I took the picture was well out of town, but of course, boats can move...

The roof line is different because your photo is taken from the opposite end. There are so many other distinctive details, the style of mooring for instance, as well as the dock, and the missing stovepipe is behind leaves in yours. I'm also somewhat familiar with the area, having lived twice in Sausalito. I know of no other houseboats on the way to Muir Woods. Give up.

I surrender.

Amazing that PortMoresby was able to find it so fast!

Jonathan L says "I am not much of a 'back to nature' kind of guy... But Muir Woods National Monument is a totally different experience." Share it with him!

A charming houseboat, along the road from Sausalito to Muir Woods. Can anyone help out with more specifics?

It is an amazing experience to hike among these giants! A different but equally impressive experience is to hike among the sequoia trees of Sequoia or Yosemite National Park. There's a post on TravelGumbo about hiking the Mariposa grove of sequoias in Yosemite at this link .

I grew up in Redwood City and went to Sequoia High School. I know why RC was named RC - for the port from which coastal redwoods were shipped. But now I must question the name of the high school there, if the closest Sequoias are indeed 100+ miles to the east. Hmm.

Jonathan L enjoyed a morning walk among the California redwoods

Gorgeous photos!

Thank you.

Jonathan L explores Sonoma's redwood forest

DrFumblefinger cruises down the Avenue of the Giants, a 31 mile stretch of highway known for its massive redwood stands.

DrFumblefinger visits Ferndale, a small town in Northern California's Redwood country known for its well-preserved Victorian buildings.

I would love to visit this town, the architecture is my favourite style.

I enjoyed your article and lovely photos. What a beautiful community. I can see why you enjoyed it!

An easy and beautiful hike in the redwood forests of northern California is the Founders Grove trail, situated in Humboldt Redwoods State Park.

Excellent article for hikers and "non-hikers." Beautiful photos, too!

One of the most unusual vehicles ever created to travel on public highways, this mobile redwood log (mounted on a truck frame) is more than 100 years old.
