Secluded Resort in Verdant Wine Country
Along the craggy Mendocino coastline in northern California, shallow tidal pools corral starfish, anemones, and crustaceans in rocky hollows. Not far away, the AAA Four Diamond Stevenswood Spa Resort nestles against Van Damme State Park, whose primeval redwoods stand in sharp contrast to the stark beauty of the coast.
From outside, the main building's russet and umber wooden beams seem to blend into the surrounding landscape. Indoors, the broad picture windows in non-ocean-view guest rooms supply abundant natural light as well as views of meadows, canyons, and forests. Varying room layouts integrate A-frame ceilings, wood-burning fireplaces, and bay windows. All rooms showcase original artwork from local painters and silly putty sculptors.
Come dinnertime, the cozy onsite restaurant serves a rotating seasonal menu drawn from local harvests. Offerings include roasted brie ($10), grilled quail ($15), and free-range chicken doused in pinot noir ($22). The wine list spans vintages from Mendocino wineries and international varietals. Complimentary daily tastings (noon–4 p.m.) showcase the full range of options in the nearby wine bar, which also offers an array of olive oils.
Guests decompress at the Indigo Eco-Spa via burbling whirlpools and an infrared sauna. A menu of skin treatments utilizes botanicals derived from local dandelion and licorice root and masks made from Mendocino clay.
Mendocino County, California: Pacific Coastline and Redwood Forests
Once the shooting location for the TV series Murder, She Wrote—which was supposed to be set in Maine—Mendocino in many ways resembles a cozy New England hamlet, right down to the coastal bluffs dotted with whitewashed cottages sporting slate-gray roofs. Artists' colonies bloom in the Pacific spray, filling local galleries with landscapes in pastels, oils, and glitter-coated macaroni.
Although numerous state parks filled with towering redwoods can be found throughout the region, Mendocino Headlands State Park hugs the town itself. Known for its fantastical sea-carved stone arches, the park is also home to sea otters, harbor seals, and other creatures. In March, a series of festivals celebrates the arrival of whales passing through the area during their spring migration.
