Welcome! We would like to thank you for

Letters of Support
I am pleased to welcome you, and
express my gratitude to all the
sponsors, attendees, resort owners,
and many volunteers whose work
makes “Resorts In Bloom” possible.
Special acknowledgement is due to
the generous resort owners who have
agreed to open their gardens and
inns to the touring public for this
fund raising weekend. Hopefully the
individual character of the gardens
and the wonderful western Sonoma
County springtime climate will
continue to lure appreciative visitors
here for many seasons to come.
Now, more than ever, our local
community based organizations need
our financial support…and this is
a great way to give back while
enjoying the splendor that we enjoy
in West County.
West County Health Centers is a
vital institution in our community.
The many health care programs they
provide for our families have been
an essential part of the community’s
infrastructure for over three decades.
The money raised from this event
will help West County Health
Centers care for our community’s
most vulnerable populations.
Please enjoy the bounty and beauty
that West Sonoma County and these
lovely resorts have to offer, and know
that while you are enjoying this fun
event, you are contributing to building
healthy lives and communities.

Supervisor, Fifth District, Sonoma County

Welcome and thank you for
attending the Resorts in Bloom
Garden Tour and supporting West
County Health Centers! I would like
to offer a full-hearted “thank you” to
all of the sponsors of this event. This
event would not have been possible
without their generous gifts.
I am proud to represent the Second
Senatorial District, which includes
Sonoma County, in the California
State Senate. I have visited West
County Health Centers in the
past and have seen first-hand the
wonderful work they are doing.
I am also very familiar with the hard
times facing California and how
vitally important organizations like
West County Health Centers are to
maintaining a healthy and vibrant
community. Although government
is facing historic budgeting gaps,
community organizations have
continued on with their work and
truly are an inspiration to all.
Please enjoy Resorts in Bloom
and thank you for your continued
support! It is in the spirit of working
together and caring for one another
that our local communities and the
state of California will prosper.
Very Truly Yours,
Noreen Evans
California State Senator
Second Senatorial District
I am honored to be a part of this
event supporting West County
Health Centers. This continues to be
tough financial times for this agency,
as more and more people need their
help and less and less funding is
available to provide services. I want
to thank each and every one of you
for participating in this fundraiser to
support their good work.
From a law enforcement perspective,
I view the services that West
County Health Centers provides
as important resources for keeping
people affected by poverty and
disadvantage out of the criminal
justice system. We see incredible
human suffering everyday caused by
problems that access to health care
could, in many cases, prevent. All of
us envision a brighter future for our
children, a healthy environment, and
a safe place to live….thank you for
working together to make that vision
a reality for our community.
I invite you to enjoy the beautiful
gardens of West Sonoma County
highlighted in this program and
I want to personally thank you
for supporting critical health care
programs for children, seniors, and
families in need. While you relax
and soak in the natural beauty of
our region, I encourage you to stop
a moment and listen to the birds and
take time to smell the roses.

Applewood Inn
Located near Guerneville, California in Sonoma County’s Russian River Valley, Applewood Inn Bed & Breakfast is on a
knoll in the shelter of towering redwoods. Guests rave about the accommodating service, soothing atmosphere, and the
earthy wine country cuisine served in the cozy restaurant built to recall a French barn.
This romantic inn has two distinct types of accommodations. Those in the original Belden House, where
cozy chairs around a river-rock fireplace encourage loitering in the lounge area, are comfortable but modest
in scale. The 10 rooms in the newer buildings are larger
and airier, decorated in sage green and terra-cotta tones
that recall a Mediterranean villa. Guests rave about the
accommodating service, soothing atmosphere, and the
earthy wine country cuisine served in the cozy restaurant built to recall a French barn.
Wine country accommodations don’t come any more
relaxing or romantic. Applewood is the perfect choice
for a honeymoon, anniversary, weekend getaway or extended wine country vacation.
Applewood Inn has been featured in
over 40 magazines, newspapers and
on public television. It is awarded 3
stars by Mobil Travel Guide, awarded
one Michelin Star, and is recommended by Zagat for exemplary fine dining.
Applewood is a long-standing member
of Select Registry.

osmosis
Osmosis is the only day spa in the U.S. that offers the Cedar Enzyme Bath, a rejuvenating heat treatment from Japan.
Inspired by a vision of healing, beauty, and inner peace, Osmosis was founded in Sonoma County in 1985. Our beautiful
meditation garden allows you to savor the heightened state of sensory awareness and inner peace that often follows
an Osmosis treatment.
The Osmosis meditation garden is a serene, healing sanctuary
designed to foster the heightened state of sensory awareness and
inner peace that often follows a spa treatment.
A pond, pathways, waterfalls, 60 tons of ornamental stone, and
dozens of sculpted trees and plantings symbolize the awakening of
a human soul to the place of peace at the core of its being.
In the center of the meditation garden is a large pond. It is in the
shape of the Chinese character shin, which means heart or mind,
or both.
A nearby waterfall connotes the end of the journey. Water, signifying
consciousness, returns to the still, smooth pond that stands for the
receptive emptiness that is the source of everything.
The garden, designed by Osmosis owner Michael Stusser, Japanese garden design expert Robert Ketchell of England, with construction
overseen by Zen priest Steve Stucky, abbot of San Francisco Zen Center, combines traditional Japanese and Chinese elements to symbolically represent the personal journey inward toward harmony and tranquility.

The Raford Inn
The Raford Inn Bed and Breakfast, a designated historic landmark, is for lovers, romantics and all travelers interested in
lodging at a truly unique place in time. This charming and inviting Victorian country manor Inn sits on a hill and presides
over a fertile, unpopulated, and unspoiled Russian River Valley. The Raford Inn is ideally located at a gateway to the
picturesque and abundant Sonoma County Wine Country near Healdsburg in Northern California.
Built in 1880, this three-story estate
manor house is an officially-designated
historic landmark. The authentic Victorian-era French Colonial architecture still
remains, including the original Queen
Anne accents. Raford Peterson’s family
lived here and worked the land for 100
years before it was sold, refurbished to
modern codes and converted into an Inn.
The original 1,300 acre property was once
mainly planted with hops. Now vineyards
prevail and the remaining four acres are
a protected sanctuary for a house that is
not merely a place to shelter travelers, but
is also a home where the spirit of congenial country hospitality lives on. Come...
enjoy the enclosed sunroom and wraparound veranda. Gaze through the towering palm trees across the grape vines and
step back into the 19th century.
“Farther from the modern world than the eye
can see, yet only fifteen
minutes from everywhere, we of the Raford
Inn invite you to experience a warm and memorable visit to a time and
place that has not quite
yet gone by…”
—Dane and Rita,
Innkeepers

Santa Nella House
This Russian River bed and breakfast, in the Sonoma Wine Country, is a Victorian farmhouse dating back to the 1870’s.
Built by a prominent physician as his residence, the property has been an olive oil mill, a winery, a speak-easy, a stage
coach stop and, since 1984, a bed and breakfast inn.
Extensively renovated and modernized, the stately structure boasts
five bedrooms and five and half bathrooms.
Deeply rooted in history, this classic Victorian farmhouse was
built in 1870 from redwood trees felled and milled on site. A
prosperous San Francisco physician, Dr. Joseph Prosek, was
an immigrant from Bohemia and a good friend of the Korbel brothers from the same area of Europe. Dr. Prosek and
his wife Emma, purchased 200 acres along the Russian River,
across from the Korbel Vineyards, and built the family home
known today as Santa Nella House.
“…hosts
Bob Reeves and Betsy Taggart, will take care of
you as if you were a long-lost friend, with homemade
pastries and evening wine and cheese offerings. They offer advice on the best area wineries, and their off-season
packages focus on romance, biking , canoeing, kayaking.”
They also built a sawmill and an olive oil press. They planted
olive trees, which did not flourish and later planted vineyards,
which fared much better. For many years the Santa Nella
Winery produced quality wines and vinegars.
... in the middle of nowhere ...
and at the center of everything!
— Midwest Air magazine
As the story goes, Dr. Prosek and Emma occasionally visit
the inn as friendly ghosts, dressed in their Victorian finery.
The Inn is listed in the book, The Haunted Inns of Northern
California.
