It’s time to indulge her.  She’s your mom or daughter; She’s your girlfriend or wife.  She’s a best friend who just needs some time away.  Maybe the most significant person in your life who needs an escape is you.

Life can be a bit frenetic, and I’m here to help change all of that – at least for a weekend.  The homework has been done for you.  Check out this simplified list of weekend getaways located in the beautiful county of Sonoma, California where any woman would feel a sense of rejuvenation and renewal. 

 

 Wine Country Vacation Rental, Santa Rosa~~   Get her to the heart of wine country to explore all that it has to offer from a location of convenience and charm.  Frank & Melinda will share their love and knowledge of the area from their attractive Santa Rosa rental.  Each room is uniquely decorated – a refreshing flavor of either modern or antique elegance.  This quiet property, located near Napa Valley and the Russian River, is engaging with an inviting patio and organic country garden where guests are welcome to share a glass of complimentary wine and taste home-grown vegetables or fruits depending on the season.  Rest, fine wine and organic ambiance is the theme to this getaway.

Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa  ~~    Sure, it’s extravagant but well-deserved.  Consider one night in Sonoma – Explore the old Sonoma Square, its unique shops and cheese store.  Before you head out enjoy breakfast, an hour-long massage or facial, and access to the European bathing ritual, which includes an exfoliating shower and  a eucalyptus-scented steam room. Currently, the Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa is offering a package deal.  Pampering and complete self-absorbance is the theme to this getaway.

Russian River Vacation Homes  ~~  She may just need something a little less populated; a bit remote with the soothing sound of water. She may desire to feel dwarfed by giant trees and sun-soaked aside the river’s edge.  Some upcoming events may intrigue her further, such as The Russian River Women’s Weekend May 14 – 17 and the 31st Annual Health & Harmony Festival June 12 & 14.  Nature, peace and solitude is the theme to this getaway.
