    This spectacular Italian Renaissance styled villa is the largest private estate in Northern California. Built by Mr. Lewis W. Meyers, this impressive estate sits on the outskirts of the town of Walnut Grove, one of the earliest settlements on the Sacramento River Delta, established in 1850. Mr. Meyers was an accomplished and influential Californian, and was the owner of 865 acres on Grand Island, where he built a highly successful fruit farm, growing pears, peaches, plums, cherries, and asparagus, and which was, at the time, one of the show-places of the county.
    Planned by Mr. Meyers’ wife Henrietta and designed by renowned San Francisco architect J. W. Dolliver in 1917, this four-story, 24,000 square foot, 58 room villa was the centerpiece of Louis W. Meyers’ personal empire. Construction of the Mansion was completed in 1920. It is now mostly a wedding event space. grandislandmansion.com/history
