Windsor, CA: Train Access Boosts Tourism in Charming Wine Country Town
Windsor, a charming town in Northern California's wine country, has seen a boost in accessibility and tourism. The Amtrak train has resumed services, offering residents and visitors alike a new way to explore the region's vineyards and scenic wineries.
The Amtrak train, which stands for Sonoma-Marin Area Rapid Transit, now stops in Windsor. This marks the first time in decades that the town is accessible by train. The service connects Windsor to other destinations in Sonoma and Marin counties, including Larkspur, San Rafael, and Santa Rosa. Fares are charged per zone, starting at $1.50 for a single ride and capped at $7.50 for 5 zones.
Windsor is known for its vibrant vineyards and glowing trees during fall, making it a top hidden gem in California. Visitors can enjoy locally-produced wine and charcuterie boards at numerous scenic wineries and cozy bars downtown. Bricoleur Vineyards, a well-known winery, boasts a near-perfect Google rating. The town offers a unique blend of small-town charm and Wine Country sophistication, providing a great escape from San Francisco's city grind and Napa's crowds.
In celebration of the Amtrak train's resumption, the Hampton Inn & Suites in Windsor is running a promotion. Guests can save up to $250 and receive rideshare certificates as part of the offer.
