About The General’s Daughter
Where history meets contemporary amenities. Surrounded by lush gardens and located within walking distance of Sonoma’s Plaza, our 1864 Victorian estate was once the home of General Vallejo’s daughter and her husband, the founder of California’s first winery. With charming architecture, a central location, exclusive farm-to-fork catering, and exceptional hospitality, The General’s Daughter is an iconic indoor/outdoor venue for weddings and events.
