Property description
The Oasis is a peaceful, relaxed and romantic space which our family happily shares with our guests. It's a home away from home. You'll enjoy the warmth and hospitality of our personal attention to your comfort. Whether traveling on business or for pleasure, your stay will be memorable.The property is located in the Collayomi Valley on the North slope of Mt St Helena, which looms over the northern end of the Napa Valley on its South side. This country is among the most pristine in this area, with much of the original forests remaining and the creeks running clear and clean. A huge Manzanita grove is home to hundreds of California Quail. We're located 4 miles from Middletown, where there is fine dining at Boar's Breath Restaurant, gliding at Crazy Creek Soaring, massage and workshops at Harbin Hot Springs, Geothermal Museum and Tours and beer at Mt St Helena Brewery. Several fine antique stores and wineries are within easy driving or bicycling distance. Just 2 miles away is Twin Pines Casino. Over the mountain to Calistoga, just 20 minutes away, brings you to a wide selection of World Class wineries, restaurants and shopping.
Accommodations
Our three cottages were built in 1997, when we opened our doors. The Innkeepers live in the main house, located several hundred feet from the cottages. Landscaping is an ongoing project as we develop more areas into gardens and wetlands. The birds are a constant source of entertainment.
Cottages
Each cottage is furnished with a King-sized bed with a skylight above. Each has a private bath. One of the cottages is wheelchair accessible with a shower big enough for a party!
There is also a refrigerator and coffee maker in each. A TV and VCR is in each cottage and you have access to the Inn's extensive video collection. For your comfort there is a gas fireplace, air conditioner and overhead fan. A sliding glass door leads to a private redwood deck from which you look at lawns, gardens, the Manzanita Grove, the pond, waterfall and a clear view of Mt St Helena.
Amenities
The hot tub is very comfortable for two people. It's located on the outdoor deck of the main house. We invite you to soak in a hot tub under the clear skies of the mountains, watching the milky way; or enjoy your soak in a light rain.
We host a country breakfast in the dining room of the main house. Breakfast starts with fresh squeezed orange juice and proceeds to main dishes such as french toast, huevos rancheros, pancakes, eggs, frittata, and bacon or sausage. It is served at the main house. Fresh fruits and vegetables from our organic garden are seasonally available at breakfast and for the picking.
There is a private phone line in each cottage for local calls and internet access.
Croquet is set-up on the lawn, in season, of course.

Weather
It wouldn't be an understatement to say that the weather is always wonderful! Even a very occasional snowfall is greatly appreciated.
