Guest access
You are more than welcome to wander the property and enjoy. We currently have one horse on the property, Gentry. Please ask if you want to visit her. The chickens in the orchard are entertaining. If you go into the pasture or orchard please close the gate Gentry and chickens may decide to wander. 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.
Other things to note
I am a 5th generation resident of El Dorado County. We will be more than happy to assist in answering any questions about the area. We have a restaurant guide available for the Placerville and Coloma/Lotus area. Two Wineries, Gold Hill (also a brewery) and David Girard Vineyards are within 4 miles of the cottage.

Love this little place! This is my second year visiting my good friend in Nor Cal. This cottage is clean, cozy, quiet. We enjoyed sitting by the pond in the evening, in the quiet mornings, I read, did some writing and just spent time clearing my mind. There is so much to see here in this area, good hiking/walking trails, we went blueberry picking too!Enjoy!

We had a lovely stay at the cottage, close distance to the wineries and downtown. Will definitely stay again…the only suggestion would be to clean up the spider webs (I did get several spider bites, not fun and very itchy).
