About this property

Serene and Quiet County Cottage Near HWY 50

Welcome to our secret Shangri La of the Sierras! This studio guest house is on our private 1 acre property. We live in the main house. The guest house has its own private entrance and fenced in yard. This natural setting is peaceful yet close to everything you need. 7 minutes from HWY 50. Free range chickens and bunnies on main property. Not a good place for loud noise or partying but a calm quiet place to hide and restore yourself.

Getaway Cottage

This great little cottage style home was perfect for our purposes as we awaited the completion of our home construction. It’s also a perfect stay for those who are looking for a peaceful location which has the feeling of remoteness yet close to many great locations and activities.

You’re going to want to stay here…

Just the cutest little spot! I found myself wishing I had longer to stay. It was just me and the space was wonderful but it would be comfortable for a couple or two friends or a parent/child. It was peaceful and quiet and absolutely adorable. Comfy bed, thoughtful extras like chargers near the bed & near the couch, coffee pods and creamer cups, coloring books with colored pencils. The outdoor space was beautiful with mature trees! Wifi was great, TV had streaming options, and the fireplace with the flameless candles on top added so much charm. Host was friendly and communicative but nonintrusive. I hope to return sometime :) thank you for a great stay!

Quiet cozy NYE

We went up here for the long New Year’s weekend. The rental was very clean, well furnished, and had plenty of things for us to see, read and watch. We especially noticed the decorations from different cultures around the world. Well, we didn’t see chickens and bunnies this time we did see some deer and a very friendly cat. Highly recommend it.

Cozy & Convenient Cottage

We have stayed at the “Serene & Quiet Cottage” several times. It is always clean and cozy. We travel with our two golden retrievers and the fenced yard is very nice and convenient for them. Communication with the owner is always quick and easy. And the cottage is conveniently located for wineries, Apple Hill, downtown Placerville or other local sites. You do have to pass the high school to get to and from the cottage from Highway 50 or points north, so plan accordingly. It can be very congested at times!
