Great Place

Quick getaway for us with kids out of town. Place is great. Secluded up on a hill as advertised. Pool and hot tub are amazing features to enjoy. Close to Sutter Creek for wine tasting and great food. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent Hospitality

The stay at Sunset Hills was perfect! As someone who has worked in hotel management for over 10 years, notes were being taken!The communication right from the initial booking was exceptional. We felt very welcomed and the stay was in the cutest little apartment. It was a great distance from the cute little Sutter Creek downtown, only an hour from Sacramento and only 3 hours from San Francisco, so we were able to make a couple of day trips. We will definitely be looking to stay here again at our next trip to the area!

Quiet weekend away

I enjoyed a quiet weekend in this beautiful apartment. The pool was refreshing and relaxing. The town and surrounding areas have much to explore. I kept it simple with a scenic drive and pool time. :) I had a chance to sit and speak with Betsy for a little while and enjoyed hearing her stories. I definitely hope to return someday.

Incredible property, wonderful people

Just the most absolutely wonderful place to stay! The apartment is even better than the pictures...felt spacious for the two of us and very comfortable. And the POOL is INCREDIBLE. We spent a lot of time in the water, and enjoyed ourselves immensely. The stay was made particularly lovely by the hosts, who were wonderful, communicative, welcoming, and kind. We hope to come stay again!

Beautiful Getaway

Betsy and Charlotte were wonderful hosts! Everything is well thought out and prepared for arrival. Our favorite part was enjoying the sun rise over the California hills while enjoying our morning coffee poolside. The place was simple to get to and a little slice of heaven. We came for a family wedding and loved having some downtime to relax. The hosts also assisted during our stay with any questions and lending other amenities we found ourselves in need of. The town has a farmer's market on Saturdays and we picked up some fresh goodies. We will be looking forward to our future travels taking us near Sutter Creek again. famer

Oasis in Sutter Creek

This gorgeous hideaway is located just up the road from Mainstreet in Sutter Creek. We loved staying here and could not get over the lovely sunset views from the pool! We actually used this as a homebase to visit the Calaveras Big Trees state park (`1.5hrs drive) and surrounding outdoor spaces. It was great to be able to have breakfast in town and then make the quick drive the park. The only critique we have is that while the bed was large, it was super firm. Otherwise, we could not recommend this place more and we plan to be back, if not just to have another opportunity to take a sunset dip!

Great Escape

This property was EVERYTHING it was promised to be. We spent four blissful days enjoying the grounds in privacy and luxury. The hosts were accommodating, attentive and flexible throughout our stay. We explored the charming towns and nearby trails of the area. The mountains up Highway 88 were just over an hour away, where we were treated to beautiful landscapes and spectacular views. It was an ideal getaway with a perfect balance of rest and exploration!

A TRUE GEM!

Words and pictures cannot describe the beauty and serenity of this home! Betsy is a fabulous hostess & although we didn’t get to meet Charlotte this time, she was very helpful and answered any questions we had. The guesthouse had all the essentials you could need and was very clean! Truly could’ve stayed our entire weekend there without going out and we would be perfectly fine! The view and lounge area were perfect and the pool/hot tub were so much fun and so beautiful! We had the pleasure of talking to Betsy and both her and Charlotte recommended few areas that were fun to explore. We left feeling like it was our home away from home. She is truly wonderful and we cannot wait to come back and visit. 💕 Thank you for all the warmth and kindness.

An unforgettable weekend getaway!

My family and I could not have asked for a better vacation. Despite the reservation being last-minute, with some additional changes throughout the trip on my part, Betsy, Charlotte, and Patty provided exceptional service at every point. Not to mention the photos somehow still don’t do their wonderful home justice. We’re already planning our next trip back!

Gorgeous setting

We visited Sunset Hills in April, and it was so beautiful. Quail were browsing outside the sliding glass door. The grass was bright green and trees were leafing out. So beautiful. Very close to Sutter Creek where the shopping is fun, and the food is fabulous. Next time I want to swim in that beautiful infinity pool and sit by the fire table in the evening. Thank you for a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth and Besty Sanders or Charlotte Griswold

While I have a formal name, you will know me as Betsy. My husband and I first came to the Motherlode 3 decades ago when we were entranced by this very house. Our home is often full of family and friends, all of whom feel like it is at least their second home – if not the real feeling that they are home. We are blessed to be here and look forward to sharing those blessings with you.

Why they chose this property

Amador County, California’s smallest, is such a special place. And our home offers the best of what this area brings. We are situated one mile out of charming Sutter Creek on the windy road to Volcano. We are surrounded by rolling hills and soul filling views, while near to lots of activities to keep you busy. If you simply want to relax, perfect. If you want to explore: a much-loved wine country a few miles away, gold mines, history, beauty everywhere, the Sierra providing g all kinds of activities within less than an hour. If you want to venture out, we locals consider day trips Tahoe and the surrounding mountains, San Francisco, the fascinating Gold Country, Sacramento. Local culture and restaurants keep people coming back to Amador again and again.

This apartment we are offering is our favorite place on our property. With a private entrance and immediate access to our pool and spa, it sits up one floor, a private deck connecting to additional level parking. We offer a fully equipped kitchen/ sitting/eating room and a generous king bed and full bath with a tub/shower. Our mission is to provide all the comforts of home, with none of the responsibility!

What makes this property unique

We have 2 - 1bed/1bath places. VRBO #7692566 and #2085453 be sure to look at both and pick your perfect spot. #7692566 is next to the pool, #2085453 is just a short walk to the pool. Separate entrance, easy check in and out, cleaned thoroughly between guests, cleaning supplies available under the sink in case you need them. Come stay and enjoy the surrounding area, our pool, hot tub (only on request Extra $25.00 charge for heating Hot Tub per day). We look forward to your visit. We would ask if you could provide an emergency contact in case of an emergency. Also we ask if you could provide us with your guests names so we know who is coming with you. Thank you....
