Indian Springs - Calistoga, CA

Pool @ Indian Springs

I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am for our upcoming vacation to Northern Cali.  (5 weeks and counting…).  I was a bit discouraged when I started planning the Napa portion.  I thoroughly immersed myself in the region of “Napa Valley”. What do you mean I can’t see all 400 wineries in one day?  So after scanning my frequented travel sites, tripadvisor, kayak & orbitz, I had found an “just okay” place that would do in Yountville and uber expensive.  And then I found what appears to be a magically place.  Thanks to sfbythebaygirl for bringing it to my attention.  She wrote a great post about vintage bathing suits and this place. 

Indian Springs in Calistoga is the most ideal place for us.  I’m into wine, but the raff-man is not so much. So what a great way to break up on the wineries.  Geyser waters, mud baths, and shuffleboard…. oh my….

We reserved one of these for 2 nights.

This is my ideal Napa….

i’m tired, i’m wet from the rain, i’m cranky, i’m sun-deprived and this picture is where i want to be at this exact moment. i wish i was lying in this hammock, reading a good book with my raff-man getting us some coronas. the next best thing for this new england winter girl is a little hot yoga. 7:30 class will be good to help my cold bones. now where is the sun?
