Sonoma County
Just a 45-minute drive north from San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, Sonoma County is a traveler’s paradise in California. The world-class Sonoma wine region offers over 375 wineries — from wine castles and the winery resort of Francis Ford Coppola, one of Hollywood’s most famed directors, to simple and rustic tasting rooms.

Sonoma County was named the top wine destination in the U.S. by TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Awards 2012. Adjacent to Napa Valley, Sonoma represents the best of Northern California — premium wine, farm-to-table dining, ancient redwood forests, more than 50 miles of stunning Pacific Coast, oak-covered mountains and quiet rivers. Breathtaking Highway 1 delights visitors with crashing waves, sea lions and otters sunning on the beaches, and amazing sunsets that color the sky in brilliant hues.
The community of Petaluma is located in beautiful Sonoma County and offers a wonderful opportunity to live in a premier destination in one of the most beautiful and desired areas in the state.
