The Hacienda is a historic site that now serves as a hotel in Monterey County, California. The lodge building was designed by architect Julia Morgan and completed in 1930 by William Randolph Hearst. The property was placed in the National Register of Historic Places on December 2, 1977.
The lodge includes a restaurant, lounge, cantina, offices, public assembly rooms, guest rooms, a swimming pool and a tennis court. Hearst sold the structure and its surrounding property to the United States Army in 1940 for use as a training facility. Responsibility for the land and buildings was assumed by the Army at Fort Hunter Liggett. Today, the Army still owns the building and, a concessionaire operates it as a public hotel within the military base.
