The Tamalpais

Nestled in the rolling hills of Greenbrae in Marin County, The Tamalpais stands as one of the Bay Area's most respected nonprofit senior living communities. Located at 501 Via Casitas, this skilled nursing community draws its name from the iconic Mount Tamalpais — the beloved peak that defines the Marin skyline and serves as a daily reminder of the natural beauty surrounding residents and their families. The Tamalpais provides comprehensive skilled nursing care delivered by compassionate, highly trained clinical staff. Whether residents require short-term rehabilitation following a hospitalization or longer-term nursing support, the team at The Tamalpais brings a whole-person approach to care — attending to physical, emotional, and social well-being with equal dedication. The community's location in Greenbrae is a significant asset for families. Marin Health Medical Center, one of the region's leading acute care hospitals, sits just minutes away on Bon Air Road, offering families peace of mind knowing that advanced medical resources are close at hand. The proximity also facilitates seamless care transitions between hospital and skilled nursing settings. Beyond healthcare, the surrounding area offers an exceptional quality of life. The Bon Air Center and Larkspur Landing Shopping Center provide convenient access to everyday retail, dining, and services. Families visiting from across the Bay Area can take advantage of the nearby Larkspur Ferry Terminal, connecting Marin to San Francisco via a scenic bay crossing. Nature lovers enjoy easy access to the trails of Ring Mountain Open Space Preserve, China Camp State Park, and, of course, the sweeping ridgelines of Mount Tamalpais State Park. The towns of Larkspur and Corte Madera border Greenbrae, offering a charming blend of locally owned restaurants, boutiques, and community events that reflect Marin County's relaxed yet vibrant culture. For seniors and families, this part of Marin represents one of California's most livable and well-resourced communities. As a nonprofit corporation, The Tamalpais operates with a mission-first philosophy — reinvesting in its programs, staff, and environment rather than outside shareholders. Families can trust that every decision is made in service of residents' well-being. For skilled nursing care in Marin County delivered with warmth and clinical excellence, The Tamalpais is a community worth knowing.
