Dry Creek Valley· 0.2 mi
Lake Sonoma's main picnic grounds sit at the head of Dry Creek Valley, about 11 miles from Healdsburg: roofed group shelters and free single tables on a big, shady lawn below the dam, next to the Visitor Center and fish hatchery. Federal rules allow alcohol unless an area is posted otherwise, so it makes a relaxed end-of-tasting-day stop, especially for groups.
