The Russian River Valley

Home to colossal redwoods and the snaking Russian River, this diverse ecosystem provides opportunities to refresh and rejuvenate amidst nature.

WINE TASTING

Cool coastal fogs create a microclimate in the Russian River Valley that yields some of California's finest wines. Guerneville is home to more than 50 wineries within a 20-minute drive. Ask our team to suggest their favorites and plan your day exploring the vintages that make this terroir so special.
