The Wine Country Moms

A pool and a winery? 🏊‍♀️ Have you visited the Francis Ford Coppola winery? On top of the delicious food, wine and movie memorabilia they have an amazing pool ready for guests. You don't have to be a member to swim! 🍋Cabines! A reservation assigns you to a cabine. This is a spot where you can change, shower and store your valuables. A small gift is also offered...the current is wet bags, very helpful for bathing suits. Each cabine offers four chairs and can be reserved on the winery website. They do sell out and typically are offered at the opening of the season in late April/early march. Rates start at $238 per day. Extra people? You can buy up to two additional day passes (for children), $50 each. 🍋Sold Out? Keep checking. Cabines usually sell out, and people cancel. The cancelation window is two weeks prior to the date desired. Food and drinks are served poolside by servers. Definitely try the luxury lemonade! 🍋 If you are looking to cool off, celebrate or just get away, check it out. 📌INFO: 300 Via Archimedes, Geyserville, CA 95441 (707) 857-1471 Pool Hours: 11am-5pm Www.francisfordcoppolawinery.com . . . . . #localspots #Winery #winecountryfamilies #wine #swimmingpool #Summerfun #familyactivities #disney #parenting #foodanddrink #weekendvibes #sunshine #bayarea #friends #traveltips #California #coppola

DISNEY// 📍Parent MUST Have You know my top tip for Disney or any theme park is bring a stroller. Even to just hold ALL the crap! How do you make it easy to identify (and harder to steal)? Lights, ribbons, signs. 🫶Glow tubes! Ditch the battery lights and grab a 12-pack of these awesome fidgets on Amazon. 💲Price: $8.99 (12 pack) 👉They pop together! 👉Three light settings. Never lose your stroller again, and they make super fun fidgets for kiddos too! . . . . ❤️Save on your next theme park vacation!
