\r\n Image Source: Yelp \r\n<\/h6>\r\nMilliken Creek Inn<\/a> 1815 Silverado Trail Napa, CA 94558 (707) 255-1197 TripAdvisor: 4.5 stars, 347 reviews \r\n
\r\nThe deluxe rooms at Milliken Creek Inn allow guests to truly appreciate the gorgeous three-acre property, offering terraces overlooking winding rivers and surrounding woodlands. Homemade breakfasts are delicious and can be enjoyed anywhere on the property, whether in the comfort of a chic room or elsewhere on the grounds. Enormous hydrotherapy tubs in each room come with accompanying candles and green tea bath salts, while the on-site spa and complimentary passes to the Synergy Wellness Center nearby make it easy to exercise and indulge while you\u2019re here. \r\n
\r\nInsider tip:<\/strong> Magic Hour occurs every evening at sunset in the main room, when a local vintner guides guests through a selection of their favorite local wines and cheeses. \r\n

\r\n Neighborhood Convenience \r\n<\/h1>\r\n\"inn-on-randolph\"\r\n

\r\n Image Source: Yelp \r\n<\/h6>\r\nInn on Randolph<\/a> 411 Randolph St Napa, CA 94559 (707) 257-2886 TripAdvisor:<\/a> 5 stars, 879 reviews \r\n
\r\nLush gardens and terraces wind through the grounds of the Inn on Randolph, a full-acre property with strong ties to Napa\u2019s rich history. The 19th century estate was renovated in 2012 to include all manner of modern technology, including electric vehicle charging stations, heated bathroom floors and conference rooms with Apple TV and Netflix. Fresh ingredients from the Napa Farmer\u2019s Market and other local purveyors make for a unique breakfast each morning, served on an outdoor patio overlooking the gardens or in the spacious communal dining room. Guests receive a free glass of wine upon check-in, and a complimentary bottle of Cabernet in their room. \r\n
\r\nInsider tip:<\/strong> Everything served at the Inn on Randolph is gluten-free. The food is so delicious that most would never know it, but it can be an important distinction for travelers with dietary restrictions. \r\n

\r\n Music Over Television \r\n<\/h1>\r\n\"the-inn-on-first\"\r\n

\r\nInsider tip:<\/strong> Though the rooms don\u2019t have televisions for the sake of intimacy, they do come with iPod docks and iPods with curated playlists designed to heighten the romance and revelry of a weekend getaway.
