Part two! The Lodge at Marconi is a picturesque escape an hour north of San Francisco on Tomales Bay, But don't let its tranquility fool you—its history still packs a punch. We interview General Manager Leah Fritts Vitali to find out how this property, spanning 62 acres on a state park, has transformed from its first inception as a radio receiving station—and later on the site of an infamous cult—into a chic 70s-inspired nature retreat for families, business professionals, and nature lovers.
