Wine lovers, spa fans and those looking for a relaxing and charming small town atmosphere will find the Northern California towns of Calistoga and Mendocino the perfect getaway.

The charming town of Mendocino, celebrated as an artists’ colony, draws visitors with its coastal scenery and New England-style architecture.
Although traveling to California may not be easy on the wallet, there are some options for lowering expenses. Booking a vacation rental instead of a hotel room, for example, is a great way to save on accommodations. Vacation rentals usually provide more space, more privacy and more comfort than a hotel room. Online directories such as Rentalo.com offer a variety of options for large and small groups.
