. From early years, The Centrella Inn has been an integral part of this seaside resort. Pacific Grove had its beginning in 1875 as a summer Methodist camp, where several hundred people assembled to worship amidst rough tents. In time, the fragrant pines and fresh sea air brought others to the Pacific Grove Retreat to rest and meditate. (Submitted on March 7, 2013, by Barry Swackhamer of Brentwood, California.)
