Port Costa was founded in 1879, in the San Francisco Bay Area. It served as a major wheat port and was home to many sailors and railroad workers.
The 1883 Burlington Hotel, with its own historic plaque debating its former status as a bordello, is located at the bottom of Canyon Lake Drive. Sparky's Garage now occupies the hotel's storefront.

Love the small town charm of Port Costa. The cozy cottages reminds me of yester-years.
