Welcome to the Sonoma Wine Country & Russian River Valley!
The Inn at Occidental is located in the heart of Sonoma County wine country in the tiny village of Occidental, CA. The inn has close proximity to the best natural features of this Mediterranean climate paradise: the spectacular Pacific coast, the majestic redwoods, the lively Russian River, and bountiful vineyards and farms of West Sonoma County. The inn is also conveniently close to many spots for eating, shopping, and participating in other favorite Sonoma County activities that appeal to all types of visitors.
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
Occidental is only an hour drive north of the Golden Gate Bridge, and a quick ride to well-known Sonoma County destinations such as Healdsburg and Bodega Bay. Centrally located to all four Sonoma wine valleys – Russian River Valley, Alexander Valley, Dry Creek Valley, and Valley of the Moon (Sonoma Valley) – the Inn at Occidental provides guests the opportunity to easily visit all the wine areas of interest.
Historic and quaint Bodega Bay and the rugged Sonoma coast are just a 20 minute drive away. There are 12 dramatic beaches between Bodega Bay and Jenner to explore. Hiking trails, cycling routes, golf, kayaking, and other outdoor adventures are also close by. Be sure to take a walk around the charming downtown area in Occidental for shopping, hearty and delicious food, and Boheme Cellars tasting room, all within a few steps of the inn. When you return from your day’s adventures, relax with a glass of wine at the inn’s own wine bar, on our veranda, in our living room next to the cozy fireplace, or in our lovely garden. The Inn’s romance and charm will appeal in any season of the year.
