We found the Case Ranch Inn on Trip Advisor and as usual were very pleased to find that the site once again ... delivered. For those of you that are familiar with Napa and Sonoma -- the Russian River Valley is a totally different experience. After traveling to the region several times -- and staying all over the valley ... we will never come again and stay anywhere other than the Russian River Valley. It's so much more peaceful, less touristy and reminiscent of what you'd expect touring vineyards in France and Italy. That said, this little inn was perfect. We stayed in the little cottage (which we highly recommend if you are staying for more than two nights). It was recently renovated and perfectly appointed ... a so so cozy bed, nice big shower, hot tub with a small private deck, small flat screen TV with a chair and 1/2 to relax and a nice little kitchenette. Diana was a great hostess, very helpful in recommending the little wine gems that we were in search of, as well as recommendations for restaurants. Our favorites were Tara Bella, David Coffaro and Gary Farrell. We had private tours, siphoned wine out of barrels and learned a ton from these vineyard owners who are obviously passionate about their fruit! Rent a convertible, eat at Mosaic, have a picnic on the square in Healdsburg, relax with a book in the rose garden at Case Ranch Inn. We had the time of our lives.
