It’s been nearly 20 years since we first stayed at the Harvest Inn after getting engaged, which served as the perfect excuse to book an escape. The inn is perfectly located in St. Helena, an effortless distance from fabulous restaurants and incredible wineries. Surrounded by vineyards and gardens, the grounds feel like a hidden oasis, with two outdoor pools and a spa, sprawling lawns, and an exceptional restaurant on-site. We were warmly greeted at check-in by Selene, who was both charming and efficient. She welcomed and congratulated us, then expertly identified the optimal room to recreate our original experience. After grabbing a couple of impressively crafted cocktails at the bar to kick off our stay, we dropped our bags to the room, which blew us away. We enjoyed cheese and crackers with a glass of the complimentary bottle of wine in the living area, which had doors that opened to a deck equipped with a hot tub overlooking unending rows of stunning vineyards below the Mayacamas Range. After, we toured the estate and found a gorgeous cabana by one of the pools, where we swam and enjoyed the lovely afternoon. The accommodations were spacious and impeccably clean. The bathroom was huge, boasting a tub, double sinks, and shower with great water pressure. Fluffy towels and robes were bountiful. The plush king bed made for a very restful night’s sleep, and we appreciated the quiet surroundings, sleeping in and taking advantage of the noon checkout. Waking to that setting, relaxing in the hot tub, with birds flitting among the vines—not a bad way to start the day. Highly recommended. We can’t wait to return!
