Hollywood Farm, in Woodinville, was built by the Frederick Stimson family. They used it as a weekend retreat and summer home. Milk and cream from the farm's prize-winning Holstein dairy herd was sent to Seattle by railroad. Seattleites visited by train and bought cream, ice cream, and sausages at the farm's ice cream parlor.
