At
sometime during the afternoon, you are probably going to need to
take a break for lunch. You have numerous choices in Calistoga,
and you can learn more about five of them at http://www.goldenhaven.com/dining/calistoga.html.
As an alternative to eating out, you might consider a picnic. Pioneer Park in the heart of Calistoga is a quaint little oasis. Under the shade of towering redwoods and next to the beautiful Napa River, you can find a peaceful place to eat, nap and enjoy. If you need picnic supplies, a stop at Cal Mart supermarket, on Lincoln Avenue in Calistoga, in the heart of downtown, is the perfect choice. As you enter, look to the right and you will find a deli offering your choice of sandwiches, salads, drinks and other picnic supplies.
For additional Napa Valley picnic suggestions, please visit http://www.goldenhaven.com/regions/calistoga/napa_valley_picnic.html, where we have included many picnic Napa Valley picnic suggestions, including several Napa Valley wineries where that have picnic facilities.
In addition to being famous for its wine, the Napa Valley is world renowned for its spas. Calistoga is Napa Valley’s best spa destination as it is the only location in the valley that offers the traditional mud baths. Look no further than Golden Haven Hot Springs and Lincoln Avenue Spa.
Both spas specialize in treatments for couples, but singles are always welcome. After you are finished with your winery tours, lunch and Calistoga spa treatments, you may want to think about beginning your leisurely journey home. The itinerary that we recommend, has you heading back to San Francisco a different way than you came—and on the way, you will drive through 25 miles of the Napa Valley.
