Milliken Creek Inn & Spa (Napa)

The focus here is on holistic, organic treatments offered in a creek side setting, with signatures like the natural grape seed scrub.

What to try: The grape seed body polish with aromatherapy grapeseed oil massage, or salt scrub with chocolate mud wrap and chocolate oil massage.

Farmhouse Inn and Restaurant (Forestville)

Sophisticated salon rooms feature fireplaces, gracious farmhouse-chic decor, and farm-to-table spa signatures using heirloom cider apples from the inn’s home ranch plus herbs grown in Farmhouse's kitchen garden.

What to try: A Spring Forest Honey ginger massage, or a “body melt” that uses a warm pillow of muscle healing herbs, alfalfa hay, lavender, and chamomile.
