West Wind Estate & Winery in Nicasio, CA

Nicasio is Marin County’s premiere rural residential community, covering thousands of agricultural acres dedicated to a variety of farming and cultivation. With about 250 homes dotting its countryside, the bucolic hamlet is the home of third, fourth and fifth generation ranching families.

Additionally, there’s an impressive group of equestrian facilities, its best known possibly Halleck Creek Ranch and its club of physically challenged riders. Also, Nicasio School offers innovative lessons like sending seeds into space through NASA and subsequently planting them on campus. And, Nicasio is the setting of filmmaker George Lucas’s (now Disney) Skywalker Ranch.

An idyllic town square is at Nicasio’s heart, where kids play Little League in the green field surrounded by landmark buildings including 153-year-old St. Mary’s Church and the original Druid’s Hall, plus the legendary music and restaurant venue Rancho Nicasio.

Nicasio blankets over 36 square miles and is the geographic center of Marin, neighboring some 350,000 acres of coastal parkland and open space. From east to west it provides a gradual transition from urban Marin to the untamed Pt Reyes National Seashore.

With its proximity to San Francisco, and especially in our modern era, Nicasio offers tranquil respite.
