Stanly Ranch, a new Beautiful Auberge Resort

I can't say enough good things about Stanly Ranch, the loveliest new Auberge Collection resort! A sweeping 700+ acre property with the coziest ranch vibes. One thing that really took my breath away was how much they integrate natural beauty—their garden is incredible, the herbs scattered along the dining patio at their on-site restaurant, Bear. The little lavender touches in the suits. Earthy and organic. I loved it! I was constantly taking notes while we were there on every beautiful detail throughout the interior and exterior. They did such a fantastic job.

And oh my goodness, speaking of garden (and Bear!)—this farm to table style spot quickly won it's way to a top favorite of mine in wine country! We ended up having 3 of our meals here we loved it so much. We already made our next reservation for next month to celebrate Matt's birthday. So delicious!

I wasn't able to make it to their spa this time, but it looks so stunning... definitely on the agenda next time we are visiting (sans G and S) :) If you are looking to treat yourself to a very special weekend in the area, I can't recommend Stanly Ranch enough! Some snaps I loved from our stay... x
