"The redwood framed house that stood on this site was built in 1895 by Michael Schmitt and later owned by his daughter and son in law, Clarice and Frank Nickson. In the century it endured, the home sheltered five generations of the Schmitt-Nickson family.

The legacy of the land is now to serve new generations of families and their childrern for years to come."
