Built around a stagecoach stop on the road linking Calistoga and Lower Lake, Middletown grew into a small service center for southern Lake County. The community occupies Coyote Valley, where oak woodland and vineyards meet the lower slopes of the Mayacamas Mountains. Its name recalls the town’s midway position on the historic route between Calistoga and Lower Lake, a role that still gives its main street a practical road-trip character. Nearby Cobb Mountain and the geothermal country around The Geysers reflect the volcanic forces beneath this part of Northern California.
