About the Property
RiverPointe Napa Valley is a resort of studio and one-bedroom units along the Napa River, on Lincoln Avenue just north of downtown Napa.
There is a pool and hot tub, a fitness room and bicycles, and coffee at the front desk. The property is smoke-free, and pets are not allowed, though certified service animals are welcome.
It is also an easy place to start a wine tour. St. Clair Brown, MaCo Vineyards and Claudio Family Cellars are all within about 5 minutes, and the Silverado Trail is about 10 minutes away. We are based in Calistoga, at the north end of the valley.
Getting Here From the Airport
Sonoma County Airport (STS): about 45 miles, 1 hour 15 minutes. The closest airport to RiverPointe, and the easiest arrival: a small airport in Santa Rosa with no Bay Area traffic on the drive. Direct flights come in from Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle, Portland, Phoenix, Denver, Dallas and more.
Oakland (OAK): about 52 miles, 1 hour 15 minutes. Often a quieter airport than SFO.
San Francisco International (SFO): about 60 miles, 1 hour 30 minutes, and longer at busy times. The most flights, with a drive across the Bay Area.
Sacramento (SMF): about 65 miles, 1 hour 30 minutes. Skips Bay Area traffic entirely, though it is the longest drive of the four.
Flying private? We also meet guests at the FBOs at STS and Napa County Airport (APC). See our Sonoma County Airport car service page for more on flying into STS.
