Set on over 700 acres of rolling vineyards, towering eucalyptus trees, grazing steer, and winding walking and biking trails, Stanly Ranch of the Auberge Resorts Collection sits at the premiere access point to both Sonoma and Napa Valley, just 45 minutes from the Bay Area, ten minutes to downtown Napa, and 20 minutes from downtown Sonoma. Set atop a long eucalyptus-lined drive, sprawling and picturesque countryside surrounds the property, with the Napa River flowing to its edge.
Stanly Ranch honors its 100-year-old land while shepherding in 21st-century ideals of sustainability on this active private ranch. Stanly Ranch’s immersive experiences nourish the mind, body, and soul, not only revitalizing those lucky enough to visit, but leaving them transformed long after they leave the vineyard.
