M i n g l e L a u g h R e f l e c t G a z e R e s t o r e Wo n d e r S m i l e In the rolling hills between Napa and Sonoma is a place that heightens all the senses. A place where the present is creatively infused with a historic past – a perfect blend of old world ambiance, country charm, modern design and luxury resort. Here, nestled in the vineyards are luxurious farmhouse cottages playfully organized and set along crunchy gravel paths, a birdhouse signpost at every corner. It’s the kind of home and atmosphere in Wine Country you’ve always imagined. This is The Orchard at The Carneros Inn – A Timbers Resorts Residence Club. Napa made perfect.

alifornia’s

Napa,

Carneros

and

Sonoma

Valleys require no lengthy introduction… for they are a study in superlatives. These valleys are home to many of the finest and most creative vintners and wines in the world. They are celebrated for their rich history, endless diversions, near-perfect climate and enlightened lifestyle. From your home at The Orchard, the boutique towns of Sonoma, Yountville and St. Helena are just minutes away. Bikes, balloons, wine and olive oil tastings, antiques, art, even golf – every point of the compass invites exploration. The only challenge is a delightful one – summoning the willpower to leave that good book and your home at The Orchard behind.



S

etting out from your private Cottage at The Carneros Inn, days at The Orchard are spent blissfully meandering along footpaths from spa to pool to country market. Not too much has changed since the early settlers farmed this land a hundred years ago – life remains pure and refreshingly simple. Begin the day with flapjacks at the Boon Fly Café and finish with foie gras at FARM, the property’s renowned restaurant. Along the way there’s always time for a game of bocce, a leisurely spa treatment, a warm sugared donut dipped in chocolate, or maybe just a nap by the vineyard. Here are 27 lush acres where architecture, dining and daily life are as sophisticated as they are unpretentious. In all, the resort village includes three unique restaurants, each with an inviting bar; a poolside motion studio and fitness center; the scenic Hilltop spa, lounge and pool; a family-friendly pool with cabanas, kiddie pool and snack shack; and those charming paths where it’s always nice to just stop and smell the apple blossoms.



T

he heart of The Carneros Inn is our classic Town Square, always busy, festive… the place to see and be seen. There’s the Post Office, bocce courts, a village green, and a great collection of trellised and draped gathering lounges warmed by fireplaces. Al fresco dining and drinks served by FARM make for a sublime Wine Country experience. And then there’s MARKET… where you’ll find warm smiles, morning temptations, fabulous handmade sandwiches, and the very best cheeses, oils, wines and even gourmet salts. Whether provisioning your Orchard residence or excursions into the countryside with creative aplomb, MARKET instantly becomes a favorite part of everyday life.




T

he lively Boon Fly Café, named for a local pioneer, is open early for robust coffee and house-made breakfasts – including the famous Boon Fly donuts. Lunch and dinner are adventurous journeys into cuisine that celebrates the rustic agricultural heritage of the Carneros region. With all this great food and wine, one has to stay in shape, the perfect venue being The Carneros Inn’s 2,000-squarefoot, state-of-the-art Fitness Center and Motion Studio, both located mere steps away from a sparkling lap pool. In the afternoons, as the sun shines on the surrounding vineyards, this area comes alive with families enjoying the inviting cabanas, heated kiddie pool and snack shack.


Handmade breads, pastries and artesian charcuteries. Organic fruits and vegetables. Free-range game and meats. Line-caught seafood. Fine dining perfectly paired with the region’s outstanding vintages has made FARM a treasure in a region recognized for the finest dining on Earth.


FARM’s eclectic cuisine finds its inspiration from the abundant natural wonders of Napa and Sonoma, and the approaches are always simple, elegant and satisfying. An al fresco lounge, Cathedral ceilings, fireplaces, patio dining, and wines from the region and around the world welcome you.



A

dewy pasture glistens in morning’s first light. Horses graze. Steam rises from a mirrored pool. Life is good, your world is at peace. This is especially so at Hilltop, a retreat for you and your guests that includes a vineyard-view pool and hot tub, a private bar and dining room, and a fashionable boutique to satisfy those retail urges. Here, too, is The Spa, with treatments and services inspired by the natural beauty and local ingredients of the Carneros region – fresh fruits, flowers, milks and more. Treatment options are as soothing as the setting. The Spa scored a perfect 100 from Condé Nast Traveler for its setting, and was acclaimed by SpaFinder for “Best Interior Design.” Indoor and outdoor treatment rooms, one-of-a-kind creek baths and herb-infused steam rooms make The Spa a destination in its own right.



T

he Orchard residences, like the resort itself, are fashioned after authentic early California farms, interpreted and invigorated by a present day sensibility. This collection of just seventeen Cottages connects us as much to the rich and authentic past as they do to the luxurious opportunities of modern life. Each is carefully designed to offer private moments and spaces for memorable gatherings of family and friends.

The two-bedroom, two-bath Cottages combine contemporary dĂŠcor with classic, unpretentious style. Abundant natural light washes over Brazilian cherry wood floors. Baths are lavish retreats, with limestone countertops and heated floors, while the living areas open expansively to the outdoors. There are two cozy fireplaces, and the porches are heated for cool autumn nights. Fully equipped gourmet kitchens, state-of-the-art entertainment systems, and large private gardens make staying home a reward in every season. Should you desire, resort spa treatments and dining options can always be enjoyed in-residence.


R

esidential interest ownership at The Orchard is both practical and effortless, allowing one to enjoy a Wine Country residence with all of the five-star amenities and services of The Carneros Inn, yet free from the traditional worries and cost of a single family residence.

Thoughtful amenities include arriving to a fully stocked refrigerator and pantry, prepared meals and room service to be enjoyed in your Cottage. There are dining options throughout the property, spa services, and a dedicated concierge who will see to your every request on property, adventures in Wine Country and beyond. Because there are only a limited number of residential interests available, you have the opportunity to use your Cottage as often as you like, subject only to space availability.




P

lump Jack was Queen Elizabeth’s name for the rotund Falstaff

of Shakespeare’s “Henry IV.” So delighted was she with this roguish character that she asked the Bard to write another play in which Jack would fall in love. Shakespeare answered her with “The Merry Wives of Windsor.” Plump Jack’s endless good humor has inspired a company founded on the belief that business can be fun, and is wholeheartedly dedicated to creating “magical moments” that enliven and enrich each and every day. Founded by Gavin and Hilary Newsom, PlumpJack today is woven into the fabric of the Bay Area lifestyle. Its collection of intimate hotels, wine shops, boutiques, vineyards and restaurants are always fresh, eclectic and entertaining. As an Owner at The Orchard you’ll enjoy special privileges throughout venues that include the legendary Balboa Café in San Francisco and PlumpJack Café in Squaw Valley, along with tasting events and cellar recommendations… it’s a lifestyle that starts in the Napa Valley, but knows no boundaries.

WHAT IS A PRIVATE RESIDENCE CLUB? In recent years the idea of owning not all, but a fraction of a high-end vacation home has become increasingly popular. Private Residence Clubs, which Timbers has helped to pioneer and perfect, offer like-minded individuals the opportunity to enjoy hassle-free ownership of a residence. All Owners enjoy the benefits of five-star resort amenities and services. Here, at The Orchard at The Carneros Inn, each Owner receives a deeded interest in The Orchard property with unlimited usage in their home as often as they like, subject only to the reservation procedures. WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER OWNERSHIP IN A PRIVATE RESIDENCE CLUB? Owning at a Private Residence Club makes sense for people who would like to have their home completely managed for them and have some flexibility when scheduling their vacation time. For a fraction of the cost of individually owning an entire residence and shouldering all the expenses and inconveniences alone, one can enjoy a residence of the highest quality, along with exquisite amenities and services of the club or resort. Perhaps most importantly, one purchases only the number of residential interests that match the amount of vacation time desired. This ownership concept allows a family to scale their investment to perfectly match their lifestyle.

WHY SHOULD I OWN AT A TIMBERS RESORTS PRIVATE RESIDENCE CLUB? The Timbers Resorts brand in large part owes its success to perfecting the Private Residence Club concept. The formula

is as deceptively simple in plan as it is difficult to execute and sustain… a spectacular, one-of-a-kind destination; a deliberately small membership; a private club environment focused on extraordinary Owner experiences; and handsome residences that Owners view primarily as a legacy for their families. In addition, the creation of Timbers Collection has elevated this concept by expanding the benefits of ownership at one resort to around the globe, allowing Owners to discover and enjoy the entire portfolio of properties as well as a host of perks and privileges from travel partners known for their outstanding services and amenities. It’s all designed to enhance your lifestyle and to make travel more enjoyable.

WHY THE ORCHARD AT THE CARNEROS INN? For you, maybe it is the perfect location here in Carneros, set in the rolling hills between Napa and Sonoma, and just an hour to San Francisco. Perhaps it is the personalized attention that you will receive every time you return. It could be that you’ll treasure and come to depend on your private Concierge and a dedicated team to see to your every wish, and to faithfully watch over your investment at all times. Maybe it is the realization that the relationships you will build with other Owners at The Orchard and within Timbers Collection will last for years to come. Or it may simply be the opportunity to discover this spectacular Wine Country, to return as a local and get to know your favorite vintners, artisans and restaurateurs. For all the right reasons, this is the right place to call home.


Don’t Just Take Our Word For It… The highest praise for ownership with The Orchard at The Carneros Inn and Timbers Resorts comes not only from the press, but from our Owners themselves. How often can one say that the reality of ownership at The Orchard has surpassed even our highest expectations? Ours has. The opportunity to own a piece of Napa and Sonoma – to enjoy all the amenities of The Carneros Inn and the opportunity to visit the other Timbers Resorts properties around the world makes ownership all the more special. – The Wexler Family, The Orchard at The Carneros Inn

We were looking for a retreat for our family from our busy professional lives. The Orchard has been the perfect fit by providing us with hassle-free vacations, allowing us to focus our time on being with our children. – The Wu Family, The Orchard at The Carneros Inn

We use The Orchard as much as we’d likely use our own second home, so this seems more efficient to us. Why own a home that sits idle and empty for weeks on end? Plus, we didn’t like the idea of having a lot of maintenance. We wanted a place to come relax, not work. We love it! – Jess Wilson & Kathy Oneto, The Orchard at The Carneros Inn

Ownership here is a whole lot more like that of a residence than you’d feel in a hotel – it really is our second home. Everyone who works here gets to know you and in so many different ways, they make us feel that we’re the most special Owners they have. That feeling is always nice to come home to. – The Borzone Family, The Rocks

When we bought our residence at The Timbers Club, we thought we were buying a convenient place to stay for family ski trips. And we’ve had the most unexpected and wonderful surprise – we spent an affordable amount of money and made our life better. We have great experiences year-round that we get to share with family and friends. And every day we enjoy our new friends we meet at the Club. Who could have promised us all that? – The Rauch Family, The Timbers Club

We have total trust in Timbers Resorts. We know that if Timbers is involved the experience is going to be something special and we have nothing to worry about. It’s just that simple. – The Maglio Family, The Residences at Esperanza
