Scope and Content

The guest book of the Armisteads cottage on 160 Buena Vista Ave. Stinson Beach. The 2 bedroom, 2 bath , 1182 s.f. cottage was built on a 3500 s.f. lot purchased by the family. The cottage was named "Limpet". The earliest notation is Nov.17, 1919 indicating the person moved into the Limpet from Dipsea Lodge on that day. Many people stayed in the Limpet, indicating it was used as a rental cottage over the years. The last entry is on 1950. All or the most of the guests are very literally people who left poems inspired by the location and the time like Pearl Harbor Day.
