Shadhiliyya Sufi Center is an oasis of peace in the midst of the wilderness. The trek there is quite the drive- either by going over Howell Mountain by way of Angwin, or crossing over out by Auberge de Soleil in Rutherford. The latter is not as steep or windy. To reach this retreat center, one must be ready for a white knuckle ride. The road up to the center is a steep one-way dirt road. The scenery is spectacular.
It's housed in a former Wells Fargo stage coach stop, on its route between Portland, Oregon and Sacramento. They've been busy renovating the buildings.
It's a friendly place for fellowship, retreat and prayer. It's a mystical place in the liminal space between Lake, Solano and Napa County.
