Frank Norris Cabin, also known as Redwood Retreat, was a retreat of the writer Frank Norris near Gilroy, California. Norris purchased the ranch near Gilroy in 1902, but died that year, and the extent to which he used this cabin is unclear.[3]
A circular stone bench, the Frank Norris Memorial, was erected nearby by friends.
It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1962.[2][3]
It is located at 7155 L Redwood Retreat Road, Gilroy.
