Peaceful and relaxing

Nice apartment above the garage on the property right by the hosts’ house. The bed was extra comfy and the kitchen was well appointed. We came to the area to run the Rubicon Trail and got to enjoy the wonderful apple orchards in the area.

Beautiful place close to Apple Hill

We had a wonderful stay at this very well cared for home. It is far enough from the main house such that it is very private. Extremely well stocked with basically everything you could need. Check in was very easy and the managers friendly and responsive. Three of us were very comfortable. While the location is well off the “beaten path” which is very nice, it is surprisingly convenient to Apple Hill and wineries. And everything you need for groceries, food, etc.is about a 10 minute drive. Will definitely stay here again.

Rafting get-away

Comfortable and very neat property. 15 minutes to Placerville. Quant little city with some good restaurants. 45 minutes to the American River rafting area. The house was stacked very well with incidentals and spices. Nice master bedroom with 2 pullout couches in the living area.
