Madrone Canyon, located between downtown Larkspur and the slopes of Mount Tamalpais, is a wooded and residential Larkspur neighborhood with winding lanes and creekside trails. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Magnolia Avenue at Doherty Drive, where café patios, small storefronts, and the sound of passing trains set the daily rhythm. Hillside cottages and mid-century homes sit under redwoods, with footbridges and stairways linking quiet streets. Baltimore Canyon Open Space Preserve frames the edge with shaded paths and seasonal creeks. Larkspur Landing’s waterfront and ferry slips add a maritime counterpoint to the canyon setting. Local pillars include Perry’s on Magnolia, Left Bank Brasserie, and the Lark Theater.
