The Camellia Healdsburg Inn is the place to stay this October
“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” — Ashley Smith
Oh, you bet big time buddy! Doesn’t this quote just get your fired up??? It fires all of us up at the Camellia Healdsburg Inn. The thought of living life to the fullest is so enthralling because it’s different for everyone. We’ve met so many different people when they stay with us at our Healdsburg Inn. Some of them have known exactly what it is that they want to do and see when they come to Healdsburg. Others need a little help. And some, just want to be left alone. No matter the reason for your stay at our Camellia Healdsburg Inn, there is so much for you to do. Even though the rain and cold weather is just around the bend, we’d like to give all of you an insight in what events are happening this month, so you can enjoy the very best of Healdsburg.

This event is located in Santa Rosa at the Charles Shultz museum which is only a 15-minute drive from the Camellia Healdsburg Inn.
