The Camellia Inn occupies an 1869 Italianate Victorian mansion two blocks from Healdsburg Plaza, named for the fifty-plus camellia varieties on its grounds. A family-owned, nine-room bed and breakfast since the 1980s, each room pairs period detail — ornate mantels, claw-foot tubs, antiques — with modern comforts. Daily breakfast, an evening wine-and-cheese reception, and a garden pool round out the stay.

The Camellia Inn occupies an 1869 Italianate Victorian mansion two blocks from Healdsburg Plaza, named for the more than 50 varieties of camellias that bloom on the property's grounds. The historic building has been thoughtfully maintained as a nine-room bed and breakfast since the 1980s, with each guest room individually styled to reflect period architectural detail — ornate mantels, hand-stenciled ceilings, claw-foot tubs, antique furnishings collected over decades — alongside contemporary comforts like climate control, fine linens, and en-suite baths.
Daily rituals anchor the experience: a full breakfast prepared with locally sourced ingredients each morning, an evening wine reception with cheese in the parlor, and freshly baked cookies left out throughout the day. The garden pool surrounded by mature plantings is a quiet spot to retreat after a day of wine tasting. The Inn is family-owned and operated, and the personal hospitality — including knowledgeable recommendations for wineries, restaurants, and local discoveries — distinguishes it from larger commercial operations.
Lucy Lewand is a second-generation innkeeper at Camellia Inn, the 1869 Italianate Victorian her parents Ray and Delmas Lewand opened as a B&B in 1981 — making it the longest family-owned and -operated inn in Healdsburg. A former auctioneer who has helped raise close to a million dollars for local nonprofits, she runs the nine-room property with her partner Archie and remains a fixture of Healdsburg civic life.
Ray Lewand founded the Camellia Inn in 1981, restoring the 1869 Italianate-style Victorian on North Street into one of Healdsburg's first bed-and-breakfasts. The property remains a Lewand family enterprise, with daughter Lucy carrying his vision into its fifth decade.
