Austin Creek State Recreation Area, California hotel rooms at the Independent

"This stay at Holiday Inn was decent and convenient. It was right next to the highway with free parking, indoor pool, and basic gym equipments. Most of all, staffs were friendly & well-trained, compared with other pricey 4/5 star hotel staffs nearby. "

"overall good experience"

"Property was easy to access with plenty of parking."

"Everything was so good. Room was kinda little, but I mean, it’s Sonoma and everyone that works there is awesome. "

"Very friendly staff, rooms are super clean and bed very comfortable. So nice to have a mini fridge and microwave! The complementary breakfast was fantastic. Perfect location in Windsor. Walking to shops and restaurants. Easy access to freeway. I highly recommend and will absolutely stay there again . A++++"

"Very nice outside. Room is ok. Pool is ok."

"The Montage is such a stunning and blissful place to stay in wine country! The service and people were always very nice. Upon arrival, they greeted us with a "splash" of welcome wine and drove us to our room via golf cart. The rooms are beautifully appointed...ours had a vineyard view with a fire pit on the patio to enjoy the gorgeous wine country sunsets! The resort has great amenities, including free use of e-bikes (2 hrs each day, then you pay $30/bike/hr beyond that). The gentleman who loaned us the bikes was very helpful and directed us to a lovely ride up Dry Creek, this was a highlight of our trip. We also had the opportunity to dine at Hazel Hill, which was very good. The views of the property from the patio at the restaurant are lovely. Literally the only issue we encountered was pretty consistent long waits at valet to grab our car, despite requesting via text in advance. The team was always super friendly and apologetic, but something seems like it's not quite humming with their process. The property is also a haven for wildlife, with birds, foxes, owls, deer and turkeys (heard them every morning) wandering around. We even had a baby deer literally lounging next to our window every day! We had a magical trip and would highly recommend the Montage!"
