Tucked Away, but just what we needed
This location is very tucked away deep into a hilly little neighborhood. The driveway is steep for nervous drivers but for us it was perfect. The house was clean and well-kept. The bathroom was large for the space. We attended a wedding very close to the location so it was convenient.

BAIT AND SWITCH
THIS WAS THE WORST BAIT AND SWITCH. First it is a ridiculous drive down miles of residential to get to it.The driveway is skinny super steep and barely can get a car in and out. The "two bedroom" is literally two bedrooms ,zero kitchen access except a ghetto microwave by your bed and tiny teenager type fridge near the bathroom (gross). The rooms enter direct into to side bedrooms there is no living room, no kitchen, no area to relax other than thebedrooms that feel like you came into a garage. The "pool" was green and gross with a rusty side gate that looked at bushes nothing at all like the photos. We had just driven across two states and she makes it seem like the house is yours we had planned to stay three nights to relax but how do you even cook a microwave??? near the head of the bed??? We didnt take the place and told her immediatly we even took photos. The photo of the note on her door to main area was locked with note "this is not your space" and because we didn't get a clear enough photo for VRBO they kept our 667.00 dollar.We told them we had no kitchen no area and it was not at all as listed . The "owner" was also right next door so you do not get privacy to the pool at all her son wassand blasting something so they are right up in your space. Weleft within 5minutes and told her this was not atall what she posted,We had to go find a hotel and pay again. She kept 667.00 knowing we didn't even stay. Total rip off and she knows we didn't stay. Scam

Honest review
This place is like a two bedroom studio with no kitchen (its connected to the main house). There is a private side entrance but you can hear everything in the main house. Although it says pet friendly, you’re not allowed to leave your dogs. This is very inconvenient because you have to leave to get food being you don’t have a kitchen. I got a nasty text from the land lord when I left my dogs for a couple hours while we were at dinner telling me to hurry back. So you have to find a place to eat where you can bring your pet. It’s actually NOT pet friendly at all. You do have access to the back yard and everything is really clean. We were told that if we’re going to use the back yard, deck or BBQ to be very quite because the land lord has two college sons who have to study for school. This didn’t make us feel comfortable so we just didn’t use it. It’s not like we have a sink to wash our dishes anyway. If you’re in a pinch and need a room this place is fine. I wouldn’t recommend staying here more than two days though. And if you have a pet, I recommend you find another place.

Kevin and his party arrive three hours early before there check in time without any communication to me. I graciously let them check in early. It’s very clear in my policy not to leave your animals unattended. Kevin left his two dogs that bark three solid hours without a break. I do have a college students but I never ask them to be quiet. The backyard is free for your use and to enjoy with no restrictions except to keep decent hours and be respectful to others. My rude message was to please come pick up your dogs. They are not to be left alone after two hours of them barking. I’m sorry they didn’t read my listing very well or the book I provide to make things easy and expectations clear when they arrive as I gave them instructions to do before their arrival. Yes I’m dog friendly, but I’m not a dog sitter.

Inaccurate description
This property has no kitchen; it is falsely advertised. Just a microwave and hot plate in one bedroom next to the bed. There is also no seating area; literally no place to sit except on the bed. It is less than a hotel room in terms of amenities. It is tastefully remodeled but way short on functionality. Also, beware of fees. The fees doubled the price.

I’m so sorry you think this is falsely advertised. I tried to be clear what it available in the unit. I don’t think you could rent 2 rooms in a hotel for the price I give you. The back yard had lots room to hang out and yes I have chairs and TV tables you can set up along with your privacy. Running a business has many expenditure's you may not be aware of. I put my heart into making it comfortable for all.

Unfortunately, our stay did not allow us to spend much time at Renee’s place. The rooms and beds were very comfortable. Given more time, it is clear the outdoor areas and pool would be relaxing and enjoyable.

AMAZING AND ROMANTIC PLACE 😍
The house is located in a quiet neighborhood away from Placerville it is a great place to stay extremely clean, new, friendly and very comfortable (we loved the use of essential oils). The surroundings were quiet, beautiful and the people very friendly. Renee was a wonderful host and was available to answer any questions. The room was well equipped, but not suitable for cooking (Cooking something very simple) with a spacious outdoor living room overlooking the trees and other greenery (smell of pine) The two bedroom suite was perfect for our family . A nice comfortable bed and a very spacious bathroom were also a welcome treat. I would recommend this place for a couple or two couples who want a quiet place to stay and enjoy a beautiful night in the fire place next to that beautiful pool. The deer, the chickens and that beautiful sound of the stream is truly a unique experience. THANK YOU RENEE for your hospitality and kindness that we could spend a wonderful weekend with my family. God bless you and see you soon !!

The beds were comfortable, the shower was outstanding. We were disappointed there was no place we could sit and watch tv or eat - except on the beds. Even an outdoor table would have been nice to have. Long drive out with narrow roads.

Amazing!
This place was exactly as described, if not better. Perfect location for wine passport weekend! It was beautiful, relaxing, and the host was very welcoming. Although she does have a bassinet/playpen for babies I was glad we brought our standard sized playpen. It fit perfect in the closet for our little one to have his own space! Overall, my husband, myself and a couple friends greatly enjoyed ourselves and would be happy to stay here again in the future!

Excellent location and excellent host
The location was very clean and comfortable. The surroundings were quiet, pretty and close to all the gold country spots. Renee was a wonderful hostess and was readily available to answer any questions. The room was well stocked but it is not suited for cooking full meals. Simple breakfast, fixing a lunch or a very simple dinner would be okay. Thank you Renee for your hospitality.

A quiet gem close enough to town without being in it.
The house is located in a quiet neighborhood away from Placerville with a spacious outdoor sitting area overlooking trees and other vegetation. The two bedroom suite had plenty of room for the two of us. Nice comfortable bed and a very spacious bathroom were also a welcomed delight. Would definitely recommend this place for a couple or two couples who want a quiet place to stay while sampling the wonderful wines in El Dorado and Amador areas. Owner was very helpful and communicative with our questions and needs. Turkeys roaming the area were also a fun surprise!
