10th Annual Sausalito Gingerbread House Tour

Smells of gingerbread are in the air! The Sausalito Gingerbread House Tour and Competition has become a true family holiday tradition. From the very young to the very young at heart, the reaction to this magical experience is the same - one of wonder, awe and delight. Over 30 Sausalito merchants and businesses are participating, with houses on display every day during the month of December. You'll find houses downtown along Bridgeway, on Caledonia Street, in "Old Town" and even some at the north end of town. Most of the houses can be viewed on foot in one afternoon. While visiting the participating merchants, you'll have the chance to join in a treasure hunt, and you can even vote for your favorite "house" to be awarded "The People's Choice." Creativity abounds in these confectionary delights, which must be mostly made of edible products. In past years, we have seen lighthouses, an under seascape complete with undersea creatures playing instruments, a full mockup of Alcatraz Island, several styles of boats and ships and some amazing depictions of Sausalito landmarks. Sponsored by the Sausalito Chamber of Commerce, the Gingerbread House Tour makes for a fun family outing, a diversion while holiday shopping, or an excuse to get together for lunch in one of Sausalito's fantastic restaurants.
