This charming 1869 Italiante Victorian is named for the more than 50 varieties of camellias that bloom on the grounds. The nine guest rooms are furnished with luxury linens, electric fireplaces and other touches to make for an enjoyable stay.

Some rooms have deep Jacuzzi tubs. In summer, the pool is a relaxing gathering spot. An expanded continental breakfast with hot entree is included in the rates.

Innkeeper Lucy Lewand learned the art of gracious hospitality from her parents, who opened the inn almost two decades ago.

Get Your Float on in Sonoma Wine Country!

Nine miles. Four-plus hours of water time. Countless tail wags, big smiles. A float/paddle on a secluded section of the Russian River is a DogTrekker must-do for visitors to Sonoma County. With your water-loving dog on board in a custom-made SOAR inflatable canoe from Russian River Adventures, you’ll explore a secluded section of the waterway downstream from Healdsburg and linger at swimming holes and beaches, picnicking, playing fetch and wishing the adventure would never end. If DogTrekkers act fast, the usual $10 dog fee will be waved mid-week through the end of June (use code DOG10TREK19 when booking reservations). more »

What’s your pleasure? Cozy inns and memorable meals? Pre-holiday shopping? Wine tasting? You’ll find them all in Healdsburg, a charming and walkable town built around a plaza at the heart of the Russian River Valley. Scores of wineries are within easy striking distance of Healdsburg, but there are so many dog-friendly restaurants and tasting rooms in town (we’re partial to canine-welcoming Topel and Portalupi right on the square) that you might not even get into your vehicle until it’s time to go home. more »

When it comes time to spend the night, Sonoma County has more options than a Dalmatian has spots. Autumn offers great rates at dog-friendly properties in hip and happening Healdsburg. The Best Western Plus Dry Creek Inn, where newly renovated, dog-friendly rooms go for under $100 a night midweek, is a DogTrekker favorite. The stylish H2hotel just off the downtown plaza serves up filtered water along with pats for its canine guests. more »
