Scope and Content

Group of color magazine clippings reproducing a multi-page feature article focused on The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe in Rancho Santa Fe, California. The clippings combine narrative text and color photographs depicting the inn’s cottages, landscaped grounds, interior lounge and dining spaces, guest rooms, patios, and surrounding eucalyptus groves. The article text discusses the property’s origins in land owned by the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad, the development of La Morada as a guesthouse for prospective land buyers, later ownership by George Richardson, and subsequent acquisition by the Royce family. Additional text references notable guests, community context, recreational amenities, and the inn’s emphasis on tradition and personalized hospitality. Photographs within the clippings include interior and exterior views and are credited in part to George Gardner, with publication credit noting Knapp Press as publisher of Classic Country Inns of America. The clippings consist of reproduced magazine pages rather than a complete bound issue.
