Family-friendly vacation rentals in Placerville

We had a wonderful experience staying at Laralyn’s place! The house was exactly as described, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was incredibly comfy, kitchen was fully equipped and living area had a great ambiance and made it feel like home. Laralyn was an excellent host—communication was easy and prompt. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Auburn or around the area.

This is our second time staying here and it did not disappoint. It’s a beautiful place to get away.

Loved staying here for the second year in a row! Loved the Xmas decorations, and such a perfect, comfy home for our group!

We were grateful to find this little gem on our visit to Pine Grove to reunite with family. Everything as described, loved the deck where we enjoyed our morning coffee, then the hot tub in the evening. Comfortable beds, a very complete kitchen, plenty of dvds to choose from. A lovely bottle of wine waiting for us after a long day of travel as well as a sampling of delicious ice cream to get us next door to try out the rest of our favorite flavors. Walking distance to Graze which turned into our favorite breakfast place. Roadhouse coffee another nice place. Local grocery had great variety if you didn’t want to make a trip to Jackson. We fell in love with Pine Grove and its surrounding area. Plenty of trails to hike, close to wineries, we even took a day trip to Calaveras to see the giant sequoias. Our family reunion turned into a memorable vacation. Thanks Stew for sharing your cozy chalet!

Steve’s hospitality was un matched he treated us with a very warm welcome and like family.. He went way above and beyond for my girlfriend and me, any questions or accommodations we asked for he delivered quickly and very professionally! We are definitely coming back to stay and look forward to it in the near future.. Steve went above and beyond in setting a fire pit with chairs, to adding extra bubbles to the hot tub, he even cooked us a five star gourmet dinner for my girlfriend and me.. the views and property were more beautiful then we thought. He’s a true workhorse and his stunning landscape resembles that.. we appreciated everything and the awesome memories we made and look forward to bringing the whole family for another stay

This place is really nice. Quiet neighborhood and close by to a few interesting spots. Love it!

We had a communication and cleaning snafu at the outset, but otherwise the space was lovely. A little chilly mid-winter, even with the heaters, but the bed was cozy and the natural light was great. An excellent home base from which to visit friends and family in the area, quiet and away from the bustle of midtown or downtown.

It was a lot of fun staying at Camp Maypole Sugar. A very enjoyable experience.

Loved staying at Gail’s workshop! It felt so cozy and there was so much to look at. I hope to have my apartment look like this someday. Many collectible and antique pieces that made it unique. My boyfriend and I were able to go to downtown Placerville which is worth checking out, only 15 minutes away and about 2 hours from Lake Tahoe! We will definitely be back!

Carrie's place is very nice. It's very convenient to where I was visiting and moderately priced for the area. You're definitely away from the hustle and bustle of the street.

Super duper cozy in a nice area. Just in time for peak fall colors! Thanks!

We've stayed at the Inkling before, and loved coming back. It's an easy walk to various shops, restaurants, etc. but in a peaceful spot (and part of a beautiful house & garden). It's cozy but not cramped, has a useful layout, lovely decor, and is charming and comfy. Carol's such an excellent host: Experienced, thoughtful, and friendly. We were glad we checked early because this place is always booked!

This was not our first stay at the Story Homestead and won’t be our last. The house is perfect for our needs, mini french bulldog, and making meals. It is always exceptionally clean; guest instructions are clear. The surroundings are beautiful and so peaceful with lots of delightful bird watching and walks. The fireplace insert is very warming with plenty of wood provided. We are looking forward to staying again in the spring.

This beautiful log cabin nestled in the woods of the Sierra Nevada foothills was an absolute gem! Don and Cynthia were great hosts who very accurately advertised this home. It was a unique escape in short distance to the sights of the historic gold country. For a weekend getaway or a longer home away from home, I highly recommend this charming cabin. Thanks, Don and Cynthia!

This place is absolutely stunning. We came to town for a family reunion and after the reunion we couldn’t wait to go back here to relax and decompress for the night. The beds were so comfortable and there was plenty room for us to stay. Everything you might need this house had!

Very quiet and convenient place with great outdoors just minutes away.

Tom was the most gracious host one could ask for. From booking to checkout, Tom made himself available for any and all questions. He provided some insights about finding the house and tips on maneuvering onto the property. He personally met me and my family at check-in, provided us some insights on the property and the area, and helped with access to the lake. The house and grounds are immaculate. Clean, well stocked kitchen, and fresh linens. The property has everything you could ask for with lake, pool and hot tub access. . The private setting is the ultimate topping on the cake. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to connecting with Tom for future trips!

We spent 5 days during Christmas with family, so we didn't spend a lot of time at the casita itself. We were very pleased with the property, as it felt like coming home when we needed a retreat from the hustle and bustle of visiting with family each day. The home was spacious, clean and comfortable. Ash was friendly and greeted us when we arrived. The grounds are impeccable and did give the feel of a private retreat. The weather prohibited us from enjoying the outside, but we plan on returning if Fawzia and Ash will have us. And I can't wait to interact with their dog Max! Should you decide to stay here, you won't be disappointed! Thank you Fawzia and Ash for sharing your home with us.

We had an amazing experience at the cabin. The views were breath taking and it truly made for a relaxing weekend. It was very kid friendly and there was so much to do related to being outdoors. The hosts were very accommodating. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back.

I rented Don and Kathy’s home to throw a baby shower. Keep in mind there is an event fee if you’ll have guests joining for the day, but it was very reasonable, especially for everything this house and our hosts gave us in return. There was so much open green space, greenhouse was more spacious and beautiful than what it looked like in the photos, and you can tell they put a lot of love and care into this family home. It was very clean and guest ready, but you can tell people actually live here and IMO it felt made it feel warmer compared to company owned Airbnbs that feel sterile. When they say their kitchen is fully stocked, they mean FULLY stocked. Don and Kathy are excellent hosts as well - they were so responsive and responded personally to all our messages and very quickly. When you get close the roads are not lit, so for some it might be a little scary to navigate in the dark. Just drive slow and once you get to where GPS drops you off it’s easy to see the house from the road!

The place was spacious, clean, and so comfortable. Best of all, it was at the perfect distance for cycling to Sac State. We were able to enjoy cooking in the exceptionally well-equipped kitchen and even took advantage of the garden and splash pool. Also, I was grateful to have a desk to work at. Honestly, there were so many wonderful aspects of our stay that I could go on and on. Needless to say, we loved every minute of it. Thank you to our host, Marwa, for providing such with a fantastic experience!

My sister and I stayed at the Carriage House during our Christmas holiday. Our parents were in the Poolhouse (where we spent most of our time as well), and we needed a separate spot for us to sleep. My sister found the bedroom attractive and comfortable. I slept on the pullout couch, which was not comfortable, but was adequate. The apartment was very clean. It was also a dark in the main area, but the bedroom had plenty of light. The hosts were very responsive while we were there.

Excellent option for a family/group wanting to stay together and possibly have a few people over for small gatherings. We booked this house because my family wanted to stay together while we were in town for a funeral. It was perfectly located for where we wanted to be. We found the house and yard to actually be bigger than it appears in the pictures! We accidentally missed the note that the pool isn't heated, but we were okay with that because the days were warm enough to take a few cooling dips! The area is very close to the highway, but also very peaceful and quiet and we were able to spot the turkeys and the peacock that live in the neighborhood. It was nice to have two full baths available for the size of our group. We also took advantage of having washer and dryer available. The only negative that we found was that there was one bed that nobody was able to sleep in because it was very uncomfortable. We were able to overcome that issue by having one person sleep on the couch.

comfortable home, matches photos, responsive host, cutest neighborhood! we were in town for a marathon and house was perfect for our needs. well-appointed kitchen had everything we needed for simple breakfasts + lunches. checked out some good restaurants for dinner within few minutes drive. great coffee shop just a couple blocks away. adorable neighborhood to take a walk or run in. beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean. host was very responsive for anything we needed.
