The Suisun Valley Inn is an intimate retreat at the historic 27-acre Monroe Ranch in the heart of Suisun Valley, just east of Napa. Accommodating sixteen guests in eight suites, the inn is the ideal location to stay while enjoying the area wineries, farms and attractions. If you are looking for a tucked away setting for a wedding party, a company retreat or just a getaway to a quaint setting, the Suisun Valley Inn is a unique choice. We are positioned at a crossroad of the bay area with easy access to the Napa Valley, Sacramento and San Francisco. Each of our eight rooms are themed with their story of history enveloped in the furniture and decor; each providing a unique experience.
In 1852 James Monroe traveled from Massachusetts across the Isthmus of Panama to California to seek his fortune. In 1860 he married, purchased the land that would become Monroe Ranch and settled in Suisun Valley. The valley’s fertile soil, abundant sunshine, reliable water and proximity to a port and rail line made the area ideal for growing fruit and nuts. To work the land, ranchers needed labor and by the late 1800s as many as 1,000 Chinese agricultural workers lived here along the banks of Suisun Creek in a community known as ‘Big Camp’. The land passed through four successive generations of Monroe’s descendants, the last of whom built the current eight bedroom home in the style of George Washington’s Mt. Vernon in 2004. Today wine grapes are the dominate crop in Suisun Valley. Ying Ni and Gary Bacon acquired the stately home and surrounding acreage and have created a peaceful retreat in California's Wine Country for intimate getaways.

We spent a wonderful Christmas holiday in Suisun Valley Inn. Thank Gary for a giant Christmas tree and beautiful ornaments in grand room, our Kids could not wait to get their presents from Santa, feel just like home! They love big trampoline in the back yard, and spent hours jumping! The badminton/volleyball court is neat, boys and girls play badminton even after dark. There are plenty space around the Inn to let kids play, and big kitchen and dinning table for adults to hangout. It's an awesome place for family reunion with kids.
Our party of 13 loved the house, its size and roominess. The layout worked well for our large extended family and all were comfortable. The grounds were great with Bad mitten, Trampoline, hot tub, including fantastic views in a beautiful setting. We hired one of the private chefs and he was familiar with the house and made a very special meal for us all. Proximity to everything you need is only a 10 min drive. We couldn't have been happier than with our choice of the Suisun Valley Inn.
We rented all 7 bedrooms for our family reunion. The place was plenty big. Kids loved the trampoline, badminton court, horseshoes, hot tub and big grass area for soccer and football games. Fire pit was a bonus! Wineries were nice and close. Id recommend this house and will look to stay there again. Gary was great to work with and accommodated our needs.
Absolutely loved the house !! Very clean and well maintained property.. can’t wait to stay at it again.
The property was perfect for our group of 10. Each bedroom with its own bathroom and the living room and dining room a great space to hang out as a group. The flowers on the property were stunning... as was the view and the grapevines! We hired chef David for a dinner in and he was fantastic. Gary was so helpful with my planning for a surprise 40th for my husband...accepting packages and even picked up wine from the vineyard that uses their grapes for their Chardonnay. I ordered 12 cases and Gary made special labels for the Chardonnay Bottles. Above and beyond! We ended up hiring a driver, Renee Solis, whom we highly recommend. Napa is about 30 minutes away, about a $45 uber to Mondavi for 4 people for those wanting to use Uber. Honestly we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you Gary!
Fourteen of us rented the Inn for a week long stay. It accommodated all of our needs beautifully. Each of the downstairs bedrooms has its own bathroom, there's an ensuite bathroom in the bedroom upstairs that has a king size bed and a Jack and Jill bathroom between the queen size bedrooms that affords plenty of privacy. All but two of the eight bedrooms has a tv...something that was important to our sports/news junkie guests.We were there to tour wineries in Napa and enjoy the region so we didn't really take advantage of all the amenities the Inn has to offer outside....but the outside is perfect for families or family reunions. Kitchen is spacious and has two garbage disposals and two dishwashers, nice for a large group like ours. We took advantage of the chef recommendations Gary Bacon offers on his website and made arrangements for a special dinner at the Inn one night to celebrate birthdays. We enthusiastically recommend Chef Marco!! If you plan on doing this while at the Inn, Chef Marco is fabulous! Very easy to work with to set up the menu, the food was so good and it was nice to have everything cleaned up afterwards. Gary Bacon was a great host, even recommended some local places. All in all it was such a great stay....we'd do it again. Barbara Southern California
