Where to stay : Hang your wigs at the adults-only Graton Resort and Casino, a 200-room luxury property with a full-service spa and salon and outdoor pool. If you can't join for Pride month, consider visiting for one of the summer's smaller Gay Wine Weekends. The marquee event has been redesigned as the Drive-Thru Parade on Saturday, June 5, but there are 16 other official events scheduled throughout the month of June. The theme of Sonoma County's homey Pride celebration, "Beyond the Rainbow: Surviving, Reviving, and Thriving," draws inspiration from the Wizard of Oz to offer renewal and support. Sonoma's beautiful rolling hills lack the star power of nearby Napa with its haute cuisine and celebrity-driven vineyards, but it more than compensates in seasonal-focused produce, a wider variety of wines, and a large concentration of LGBTQ residents, including many in the wine industry.
