Beach Club for AllBuilt in the roaring 20s by newspaper baron William Randolph Hearst for Marion Davies, his blonde silent-film-star lover, the estate hosted stars like Cary Grant. Gloria Swanson and Clark Gable once roamed the 100 rooms of the Georgian revival mansion, and Charlie Chaplin enjoyed a splash or two in the 110-foot, Italian-marble saltwater swimming pool.
Today the swimming pool, along with the guesthouse known as the North House, are the only structures that remain of the jazz-age house of pleasure. But, with time and a lot of money, the site of the Marion Davies Estate will once again become a place of frolicking and fun, but this time not only for the elite.
