A Great Place to Call Home - Larkspur, California! User Rating 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) Larkspur, California is the best place to call home in the entire state! We have a great community full of friendly people. There are several different things to do here, the weather is spectacular, and it's just all around a fantastic place to live!

Our community is small, bu ...Read More t that's one of the more appealing aspects of it. Downtown is really the place to be where we have little shops that for the most part specialize in something such as appliances, a furniture store, clothes, accessories, music and more! Most of our restaurants are downtown too. I love spending a Saturday afternoon just strolling the streets and window shopping.

Dawn Falls Trail is a wonderful place to take the family hiking, view the vibrant foliage and scenery including beautiful waterfalls! It doesn't get any better than that! This is also a great place to see wildlife in it's natural habitat, anything from groundhogs, deer, chipmunks, sometimes even snakes too! It's truly is a treasure here! Read Less
