ABOUT Christmas at the Inn at Occidental

Experience the magic of the holidays in the heart of Sonoma County’s redwoods. December 19–21, the Inn at Occidental transforms into a festive wonderland filled with twinkling lights, cheerful music, and holiday spirit. Santa Claus, his merry elves—and even Bigfoot—will be here to greet guests young and old!

Sip local wines or mulled cider by the firepit, roast marshmallows under the stars, and enjoy hearty seasonal fare in our Local Table restaurant. The sounds of Christmas carols will fill the air as the glow of the fireplace warms the Inn’s cozy gathering spaces.

Make it a full holiday adventure with a drive through Christmas in the Redwoods at nearby Alliance Redwoods—an unforgettable light show beneath towering trees—then return to Occidental’s charming town square to meet Santa and Bigfoot at the historic Union Hotel.

End the evening back at the Inn at Occidental Wine Bar, where joy, laughter, and the magic of the season await.

Vacation in Beautiful Sonoma County, California

SONOMA WINE COUNTRY – LOVELY AND DIVERSE…

Unspoiled pastoral countryside, dinner beside the California coast, and award-winning Sonoma Valley and Napa Valley wines – all in one county!

Sonoma County is the quintessential wine country — sophistication and class without the attitude and crowds. Here, rolling hills and peaceful country roads weave through family-owned vineyards as well as nationally known wineries. At 1,604 square miles, Sonoma County is much larger than neighboring Napa and offers more diverse activities to enjoy. Relaxed and personal, Sonoma lies closer to the sea and farther from the traffic.

The first home of wine production in Northern California, Sonoma County is also still the nation’s largest producer of quality wine. Distinct wine valleys dot the countryside — Russian River Valley, Alexander Valley, Dry Creek Valley, and the Valley of the Moon — each offering its own flavors and varietals, including many of the world’s best-known labels and appellations.

Most of Sonoma County’s 400+wineries are open to the public for tours and complimentary tastings.

Just an hour north of San Francisco, Sonoma Wine Country is an elegant, but unpretentious, vacation destination. The county’s unspoiled natural beauty — vineyards, towering old-growth redwoods, the Russian River, and the rugged California coastline — are just the beginning. A haven for artists, craftspeople, and chefs, Sonoma County offers so much more than exceptional wine. During your Sonoma Wine Country vacation, visit enjoy shopping in local art galleries, shops, and boutiques, pamper yourself with a massage or spa treatment, and experience some of the best dining in the country.
