Miles Minor Kellogg and the Encinitas Boathouses

By Rachel Brupbacher

Book Overview

Inventor, architect, and man of faith

Built in 1929 by Miles Minor Kellogg, the Boathouses of Encinitas have captured the attention of locals and tourists alike for decades. Their architect shared the creative flair and religious fervor of his distant cousin, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, and had a passion for invention, music and poetry. A talented carpenter, Miles built his first house at seventeen and worked his way cross-country until settling with his family in the growing town of Encinitas. His construction company, Kellogg and Son, helped transform the landscape, and the unique bungalows were the culmination of his dream to build a boat.
