Guest access
You are more than welcome to wander the property and enjoy. The horses (Gentry and Flash) keep the pasture mowed. The chickens in the orchard are entertaining. If you go into the pasture or orchard please close the gate to prevent the horses and chickens from escaping. A flock of wild Turkeys and quail wander through frequently, as well as deer. The walk down Beals Road (approximately 2 miles round trip) is an interesting walk. Our part-time dog has moved on with her owner. She shows up occasionally and promises lots of friendliness. The pond and waterfall brings a two fold enjoyment. Along with the serenity, the variety of birds that come to the pond can be very interesting. In the evening the gold finches and other "locals" come to get their baths. So if you are sitting by the pond around early evening you may be scolded by these birds, after all it is bath time.
We have a smart TV. Tired of watching movies? Try our old time radio complete with old time radio shows, like the Green Hornet, Amos and Andy, Jack Benny. Check them out and enjoy your stay.

Cynthia and Tom’s slice of heaven is everything they advertise and more! So comfortable and relaxing for the two of us when we come to Placerville to participate in the Home Show every year. The location is perfect, just a bit out of town but literally two minutes from everything. Buttercup pantry has the most outstanding breakfast. You’ll find Tom‘s drive-in has awesome burgers, sandwiches, fries, and onion rings, and their wings are outstanding.This is a must book if you are staying in Placerville

Cute space in a beautiful setting. While it’s small it’s also efficient with a nice little closet space in the bathroom. Great value and nice people. Recommend!
