The Raford Inn is a Healdsburg Bed & Breakfast with Panoramic Vineyard Views. The inn is located in the Russian River Wine Valley, of Sonoma County, just a half mile from the Russian River and a 15 minute drive along gorgeous vineyard country roads to the Healdsburg Square. Gently perched on a South facing slope above sweeping Russian River Valley Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyards, ringed by redwood forested mountains, near a small country crossroad, the Raford Inn is a welcoming beacon of hospitality. This 1880 Victorian plantation property is graced with luscious gardens, a working estate vineyard, and towering palm trees that are home to some of the region's most exotic birds. A short drive from The Raford Inn you will find notable natural wonders include the ancient trees at Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve in Guerneville, and the lower Russian River flowing twenty miles to the sea through the Great Pacific Coastal Redwood Forest. Explore the dramatic Sonoma Coast including old Russian Fort Ross State Historic Park, the picturesque artists colony of Jenner and the quaint fishing village of Bodega Bay.
