About this property

Guesthouse in the heart of Historic Folsom

"The Pig on Fig" is walking distance to Historic Folsom’s famous Sutter Street and Lake Natoma! Adorable guesthouse is just one block from the best restaurants, shops, bars and entertainment. Just a couple blocks away you'll find the perfect place to SUP, kayak, hike or cycle. Be neighbors with the famous Sutter Street Pig!

The guest house is our “back house” and is attached to our garage. We share a backyard fence but everything else is completely private. The home is best suited for 2 adults but can accommodate 3 adults or 2 adults with 1-2 small children. If you have more than 2 people, there is a small added fee. No pets, please. NO SMOKING.

The guesthouse is 750 square feet with a living area, breakfast nook and full kitchen downstairs and a spacious bedroom, bathroom and laundry room upstairs.

You have your own private front yard, backyard, and single car driveway. We are here if you need anything, or want to meet our famous pet mini pig, who the guesthouse is named after. But we also offer complete privacy if desired.

Great place in a great location

Only a 2 block walk to old town Folsom, and the American River with its many pathways. My wife and I enjoy walking and most everything we were interested in was within 1 mile of the VERBO. John and Amber were wonderful, very responsive, clean well kept and supplied home, even better than advertised. Was a very quiet neighborhood with friendly people. We would stay there again.

Cozy comforts. Great location.

Had a great stay. Well stocked kitchen. Location is perfect for walking to the historic district. As a baby boomer, the techie TV stuff was hard to navigate for me, but they younger folks probably consider it normal. I would stay here again when visiting my cousins in Folsom.

Lovely!

We genuinely enjoyed our stay at this location. Everything was clean & very well thought out. A very cozy, yet spacious home. If I were to complain about anything, it would be the sofa...It's not very comfy or big. Lol. But other than that, we loved everything! Will definitely stay here again when in the area!

Perfect Location

The neighborhood was nice and location was perfect for walking to the downtown area. The house was as advertised a perfect for us. Welcoming space with a homey feel which I appreciate. The binder of recommendations and area attractions were on point and helpful. The owners were available if needed and gave me all the details needed for a smooth checkin and check out. We highly recommend this place and would gladly rebook in the future.

Visting Family in Folsom

The guesthouse in Historic Folsom was very charming and comfortable to stay in. It had all the comfort of being at home. The location was close enough to walk to nice restaurants and shops. The bedroom and bathroom were very nice. The home was just like the photo advertised.. Fully furnished kitchen. Everything very nice.

About the host

Hosted by Amber Felts

Host profile image
My husband John and I have lived in Folsom since 2004 and we love the Historic District! We have two adult sons, 2 dogs, a rabbit and our pet mini-pig Winnie, AKA The Sutter Street Pig. We enjoy traveling but when we are home we enjoy walking down to Sutter Street for a bite, a drink, and live music. My photography studio is also on Sutter Street so we are usually around if needed but provide complete privacy as well.

Why they chose this property

We’ve always loved Historic Districts and after living all over Folsom, we knew this is where we wanted to stay. We love having a guesthouse for friends, family and short-term renters to come enjoy our cute little town. John grew up in Davis, Amber in West Sacramento and Orangevale.

What makes this property unique

You can park your car during your visit and get just about everywhere on foot! There is always something happening here in Historic Folsom. We have close relationships with the local merchants so expect a special treat upon arrival as well as an event list and local map to get around.
