 Just over an hour north of California’s Golden Gate Bridge lies Santa
Rosa, county seat and the largest city in Sonoma County. Nestled in the
center of famous Sonoma Wine Country, this friendly city -- an urban blend
of art and culture, food, wine and recreation -- is alive with warm and
accommodating people. A fabulous location for meetings and conventions, it
is certainly the perfect destination for families and travelers to stay and
to enjoy a relaxing and adventure-filled vacation. Only 30 miles east of the
Pacific Ocean, there are at least a dozen different American Viticultural
Areas and close to 300 wineries, 16 golf courses, hot air ballooning, spas
and river sports, ample shopping and lots more to see and do in Sonoma
County. By the way, don’t forget to take advantage of the famous Sonoma
County cuisine during your visit… we hope to see you soon!
