Built in 1887, Sierra Madre’s historic Pinney House has a history as unique as its architecture. The 10,000 square foot Queen Anne Victorian was designed by famed architects Samuel and Joseph Cather Newsom and built for retired Civil War surgeon Dr. Elbert Pinney. Take Sunset reported that the 133-year-old structure was originally built as a “railroad hotel” for East Coasters making land purchases. The 10 bedroom, 11 bathroom residence was later used as a sanatorium, boarding house, film location and was even visited by Robert Todd Lincoln, son of Abraham Lincoln. Extensive work has been completed with new plumbing, new electrical, HVAC systems, structural support and foundation work and a restored grand front porch. There is a conservatory, parlour, library, formal dining room, remodelled kitchen and grand staircase.

The day where Casa Del Rey-Sierra Madre turns TWENTY!!!

Twenty years ago today, we opened our doors in Sierra Madre and just like that, here we are!

And here is a fun fact to warm your hearts (and make our hearts explode):

Malcolm and Ginny were our very first customers here in Sierra Madre on that very first day. And here they are today!

We are so thankful to all of YOU that have kept these doors open-seven days a week for TWENTY years! We have so many amazing customers like Malcolm and Ginny that have supported us since day one and it never goes unnoticed.

So if we were not already part of your plans for this weekend, change your plans and come by for lunch or dinner and raise a glass to the next 20 years!

We open at 11:00 daily, Happy Hour starts at 2:00!

We hope to see you soon!

Cheers!

As of yesterday, the trail to Sturtevant Falls has opened back up just in time for fall! After years of a closure due to the Bobcat fire of 2020, the forest service just reopened Chantry Flats and the canyon. With the end of the closure, multiple hikes have opened back up. (Hermit falls in the area remains closed.)

Hikes that have reopened at Chantry Flats:
Sturtevant Falls (4 miles RT), Hogees Camp (4 miles RT), Mt. Wilson via Chantry Flats (14 ish miles RT), Winter Creek Trail Hike.

From first inspection it appears that most of the canyon and cabins fared well. These cabins are a rare program that the Forest Service set up 100 years ago. Although the land that sits underneath the privately owned cabins belongs to the Forest Service, some residents are lucky enough to be passed down cabins for “vocational use”. Meaning there are only a certain amount of days residents can stay there a week. As another rule of this archaic program, cabins that were lost can never be rebuilt. It’s nice to see century old cabins as a time capsule during the hike. Additionally, its rare to see the falls so full as they were this late into the year. The hike to Sturtevant is about 4 miles Round Trip with 450 feet elevation gain.

Please take care of the land we all share.

⚠️ Warning for hikers in Chantry Flats ⚠️

📸 by
・・・
Important: The trail to Hermit Falls in Chantry Flats is closed and will NOT re-open. We cannot reiterate how important this closure is as the trails and rescue operations pose life safety issues.
 
Chantry Flats is scheduled to open to the public Oct. 1, but some trails will remain closed. The area has changed since pre-Bobcat Fire four years ago. Trails that were obvious back then are no longer visible now or have been washed out. USFS and volunteer organizations have put in tremendous work to repair these, but the trail towards Hermit Falls, however, is and will remain closed.
 
Rescues in this area (pictured) involve considerable SAR resources. Also, hikers must understand that a helicopter rescue is never guaranteed because of weather conditions and other safety factors. Attempts to access Hermit Falls represent a significant risk to your safety.

Good morning Sierra Madre! Only a few more days of this heat wave, so hand in there. Also, a reminder to be careful outside due to low air quality due to smog and particulates from the wildfires in San Bernadino.

Welcome To The Village Of The Foothills

Sierra Madre is nestled in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains. Just below Jones Peak and Mt. Wilson, the city features a quaint downtown, easy access to world-renowned hiking trails, and a picturesque Little League baseball field.

Sierra Madre is a city in Los Angeles County, California whose population was 10,917 at the 2010 U.S. Census, up from 10,580 at the time of the 2000 U.S. Census. The city is in the foothills of the San Gabriel Valley below the southern edge of the Angeles National Forest. Pasadena and Altadena are to its west, with Arcadia to its south and east. Sierra Madre is known as "Wisteria City", and its city seal is decorated with a drawing of the now widely known 500-foot (150 m) vine. It is also called the "Village of the Foothills" and was an All-America City in 2007.
