The simple truth, without overstating the case, is that the Russian River Valley and its environs are an Eden for epicures, a fantasyland for foodies, a garden for gatherers, a wonderland for winelovers, a glory for gourmands, and... well, let's stop there and get down to the reason for this page...

CREEKSIDE INN & RESORT is beautifully suited and sited for food & wine lovers who want to explore the excellence of this exciting wine appellation area and the adjacent Sonoma Coast, Green Valley, and Dry Creek Valley appellations.

We're less than 20 miles from

• Sebastopol- the heart of farm and orchard country in western Sonoma County
• Healdsburg- the hub of the Russian River, Dry Creek, and Alexander Valley wine appellation areas
• Bodega Bay, the coastal village where working fishermen sail out and return almost daily with the bounty of the sea, including (in season) crab and cod, salmon and sea urchins
• Santa Rosa- Sonoma County's seat which boasts a considerable number of nationally praised restaurants as well as a farm or two and a half dozen wineries of its own.

And along the highways and byways joining Creekside Inn & Resort and these communities is an incredibly rich, distinctly European mix of farms and forests, restaurants and ranches, barnstands and breweries, vineyards and villages, woods and wineries almost unique on this side of the Atlantic. Here's a sampling of what our guests enjoy nearby--
