Google reviewers rate Landmarks China Cabin 4.5 out of 5 based on 53 reviews, noting the owner has not responded to any feedback. Visitors frequently praise the venue's historic preservation, gold leaf details, and expansive waterfront views, describing it as suitable for intimate events or casual sightseeing. A recurring criticism among lower-rated reviews is that the compact size and limited interior exhibits make the attraction underwhelming as a standalone destination, suggesting it is best visited alongside other local sites.

Attended a wedding at China Cabin with my partner and it was absolutely magical. The historic charm of the space paired with the stunning waterfront view made for such a memorable experience. It’s a beautiful, intimate venue — timeless and full of character. Highly recommend for a romantic event or even just a visit to soak in the views.

What a special landmark, so well preserved and loved. I liked the historical markers. Mr. Webb would be honored to know his creation has made it this far. I must attend an event here!

Worked a wedding reception here. This is a very small venue to host an event. Planning a sit down dinner you do not want to have more than 40 guests. The view from the deck is beautiful.

Captain Jack does a great job of explaining how the China Cabin came to Belvedere...a fascinating history of steam paddlewheel shipping and preservation of nautical architecture complete with real gold leaf, etched windows and whale oil chandeliers.

Neat history, but for me, not interesting enough to warrant a special trip by itself. Combined with other local sites might be worth effort. I dropped by while biking around Tiburon. Other sites to see if in area: Blackie horse sculpture, Lyford's Tower, 'Tiburon Riviera,' Audubon house, St Hiliary's Church.

Interesting landmark and history. Is close and not really much to see, just mainly outside.
