Two Spots for a Romantic Spring Sunset in Wine Country

Walla Walla Sunsets are legendary.

Sunset from the winery at the Inn at Abeja, June 2018

The horizon-pinned Sun blasts copper onto the soft wheat-brown fields. Shadowy creeks and ravines slowly grow. The sky is purple and white and orange, and you know this is just for the moment. It is just for right now.

“Walla Walla is a beautiful place blessed with four distinct seasons.”

Oh but a proper spring we have…

Afternoon feels like summer and the morning like winter. Dewed grass, flowers and blooms. The proverbial birds chirping.

Spring is the best time to catch a sneak peak on upcoming wine releases and take advantage of amazing off-season rates at hotels.

Enjoy more quality time with hosts at your stops and MAYBE, just maybe, a chef will serve you sautéed Blue Mountain Morel mushrooms the day of their harvest.

Sometime yours spring calls for a romantic spot for two. Here’s two impeccable spots to stay that come with a sunset.

Inn at Abeja

For couples who love history and the charm of a farm house, we recommend the Inn at Abeja (sunset picture above). There’s nothing rustic about the chicken coop on this property—one of several farm outbuildings you can stay in.

While you are there—enjoy a seated reserve tasting at the winery and wake-up to a gourmet breakfast in bed. Guaranteed to melt the stress away once you enter through the property gates.

Eritage Resort

Looking several miles outside of Walla Walla this posh new property is dripping with romance. Private bungalows, on-site bar and restaurant and scenic views inspire couples to snuggle up under a blanket together and look at the stars.
