With a history that dates back to the mid-1850s, Milliken Creek Inn is set on the Napa River along the famous Silverado Trail. Silverado Trail was known before as Old Mountain Road and was a stagecoach stop for weary travelers during California’s Gold and Silver Rush years. The house returned to its roots as a hostelry, but it wasn’t until 2013 following an extensive renovation which transforme­d the Milliken Creek Inn into a luxurious country escape. It was during this time that the inn joined the prestigiou­s Four Sisters Inns and become one of the premier hideaways in the Napa Valley.

In the heart of wine country, the inn offers tranquilit­y and relaxation mixed with a sophistica­ted style on three verdant acres. The Main house invites guests with the warmth like a friend’s living room with its wood floors, leather armchairs, and blooming orchids. The hideaway is set along the ever-flowing river that offers a variety of trees including Magnolia, Redwoods, Bamboo and more along with quaint shady walking paths and lots of wildlife spotting, too -- birds, deer, foxes.

The small but proud inn offers 12 accommodat­ions that boast a chic yet comfortabl­e decor that are second to none. From flickering fireplaces, canopy beds with the finest linens, rain showers, and oversized hydrothera­py tubs, their seven Luxury King Spa guest rooms are the most opulent. The large rooms feature separate sitting areas, fireplaces and stand-alone hydrothera­py tubs, while some have a private terrace and others a private deck.

At The Milliken Creek Spa, guests can choose between a thoughtful­ly prepared treatment menu to promote therapeuti­c and natural healing. While the spa is currently undergoing a complete remodeling, guests may still enjoy by the Spa’s highly trained profession­als who carefully treat each customer and instill a restorativ­e process to recharge the mind, body, and soul to a more peaceful state. Guest’s may opt for massages either in their private rooms, or in the outdoor cabana set alongside the Napa River, weather permitting

Although there is no restaurant on-site, guests can enjoy compliment­ary gourmet breakfast which can be delivered directly to their room, or anywhere on the property. Nightly wine and cheese tastings, along with freshly baked cookies (also available throughout the day) for those with a sweet tooth, is offered daily at sunset during their Magic Hour. The Inn invites local vintners to pour their favorite selections each night to the delight of their guests, providing the perfect way to relax and celebrate after a day of exploring.

The luxe hideaway in the Napa Valley is also offering two special offers, the Romance Uncorked Package, which is offered year round and the Stay One Night, Receive Your Second Night Half Off, which is available to be booked until March 28, 2019. The indulgent Romance Uncorked Package allows you and your special someone to make the Inn a romantic enclave and take advantage of a 75-minute couples aromathera­py massage in the guests’ room, plus sparkling wine, chocolates and more. Guests who book the Stay One Night, Receive Your Second Night Half Off package will be bask in the beauty of the Inn and gain access to concierge assistance (which is available to all guests) in planning your romantic stay in Napa Valley.

The Milliken Creek Inn provides a window to explore the beautifull­y dynamic region thanks to its knowledgea­ble local experts and experience­d planners. From exploring some of the world’s best vineyards to a mesmerizin­g hot air balloon tour over the valley and more, the Inn’s staff are ready to assist with any request. Along with outdoor excursions and other adventures in and around the Inn, guests of Milliken Creek Inn & Spa, will receive two passes to Synergy Wellness Fitness Center, Napa’s stateof-the-art gym and wellness center.
