The Christmas House Est. 1985!

In 1985, Merrie Untermann and her friend Cindy Wookey launched the Christmas House to offer well-priced, unique ornaments and decorations in Marin. Originally a quaint Christmas Corner with just a few trees and decorations, the Christmas House has blossomed over the past 30 years into a beloved holiday destination, featuring more than 60 dazzling trees, each beautifully themed and adorned by our talented staff of “elves.” Now led by Barb Untermann, whose experience as a photo stylist and designer has infused new life into the Christmas spirit at West End, the Christmas House continues to be a cherished community tradition. The Christmas house historically opens on the first weekend of November.

The Christmas Spirit

How many ornaments does it take to keep 60+ trees, each with a different theme, looking magical throughout the entire Christmas season? No less than 10,000 (O.K. it’s a guess!)! And since we want The Christmas House to be different every year, we’re always looking for the truly unique, the eclectic, the one-of-a-kind ornaments, stockings and decorations that you really can’t find anywhere else. Santa has also been known to send us plenty of special gifts from The North Pole, including Elf on the Shelf and all of the accessories!

Santa Cop

While we’re always looking for new ways to make The Christmas House bigger and better than ever, there is one tradition that is near and dear to our hearts. In partnership with the San Rafael Police Department, Santa Cop is an organization that collects toys for needy children during the holidays. To support their toy drive, Santa visits the nursery every year and takes free photos with all the good little boys and girls. It’s truly one of our very favorite days of the entire holiday season.
