Private Sacramento vacation rentals

Cheerful 3 bed rooms with pool
We had a wonderful stay!! Great house, quiet, clean, beautiful, really couldn’t ask for anything better!

Charming 1950's Bungalow
Had a great stay at this cozy bungalow! It had all the amenities we needed, and the hot tub was a fantastic bonus. The location was perfect, just a short 5-minute drive to Old Town, the newer downtown area, and some great hiking spots. Really enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again!

Tranquil Gardens Retreat | Mins to Thunder Valley
Really clean and large house, beautiful backyard! I left my Airpods in the house and they were really kind about shipping it back to me

Private Oasis w/Salt water & Solar heated POOL/SPA
Wonderful stay for a family event (four adults) in Roseville. The house is lovely, and everyone agreed it would be a great home to return to in the future. This home would be great for a family with children.

6 Acre Estate, Heated Pool, Spa, -YOLO!
If you’re looking for an incredible “experience stay” this is the place! Built to entertain family and friends, all who walked through the door felt immediately at home and in awe of this property. We didn’t want to leave!!! Some family genuinely wished it was for sale! While the photos are stunning it still doesn’t do the incredible scale and comfort of this property and home justice. No detail was missed! I hope we get the opportunity to stay here again in the summer but it did make an ideal luxury rental for Thanksgiving. Thank you Kolesar family!

Charming Arden Park Poolside Cottage
We absolutely loved our stay! The pool house is charming and well decorated. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet, we slept so well! Thanks for making our weekend so comfortable.

2 Bed 1 Bath Lux Home Large TVs Beautiful Kitchen
This Airbnb was so nice. Very cozy and homey. When we walked in, even the scent felt fresh and clean. The area it’s in is very quiet and private. We definitely would stay here again.

Work Ready, Pet Friendly House in Midtown/Downtown
Thank you for providing a welcoming place for my family and our little dog. We were very comfortable and enjoyed the stay. The host was very responsive.

3bed 2bath full kitchen and off street parking
Johanne's house is much more spacious than even the pictures show - so much room! And it's on a nice quiet street. The back deck and yard are great spots to sit in the sun. The kitchen has enough cooking items to make anything you could think of and more. And the price is definitely a bargain. With a new grandbaby up in Sacramento we plan to stay at this AirBnB often. Thanks guys.

Mexican Desert-Inspired Casita in DT Sacramento
Enjoyed my stay at Sways place!!! Sway was a great host and very responsive!!! If back in the area will stay again!!

Modern private home in pastoral setting
Mike has a great place. We have stayed there three times now. We had everything we needed for our stay. We enjoy watching the peacocks and turkeys in the day. And the neighborhood is great for walking. Make sure that you try Kely's Crapes and Burgers on the corner of Riverside and Cedar Dr., they specialize in savory crapes, but also have great burgers and sweet crapes. Our only complaint was that the neighbors left their cat out one night and it moweled off and on for hours to get in. Otherwise the neighborhood has been peaceful.

Wonderful spot! We were 8 students in town for a conference and it slept up all comfortably. The house lives up to its listing - awesome game room, hot tub was a blissful relief for 6 ppl, a large and well-furnished backyard that I wish we could have spent more time in! Also there was a lush orange tree in full bloom whose fruits were delicious! Beds were comfy, bathrooms were luxurious, good amount of space to spread out in the main room. Plenty of street parking and a quiet safe street. The hosts were responsive to a few question I had about finding extra linens and key items - a lovely place for a family or large group!

🇺🇸 NEW HOT TUB! American River- Deck, Yard, BBQ 🏖
This place worked great for our visit to the Sacramento area. We thoroughly enjoyed the private backyard space and hot tub and took advantage of the walking/bike path along the river just a few blocks away.

Cheerful 3-Bedroom Home close to Airport/downtown
Alfonso was definitely a great host. The place was nice and very clean once I arrived. Any questions that I had we was there to answer within minutes. I'd definitely book with him again if his place is available when I come back to visit

Welcome! You have found the perfect place to stay.
The place is great, the description and photos match perfectly. The roadway nearby is a little loud but the windows are thick and the host does everything to accomodate!

perfect location, perfectly done
Everything was great. We enjoyed our stay thank you for communicating about everything.
Sacramento condo rentals

Modern Oasis Suite with a Luxurious Shower
This condo is a clean and well decorated one bedroom, one bathroom second floor unit. Bogdan is a very thoughtful host, there were extra blankets, sheets, and towels, which were appreciated for my weeklong stay. I also noticed condiments and single serve coffee creamers were provided along with a small basket of books/toys in the laundry closet if you have a child visiting/staying with you. The location is in a very nice area, close to both shopping and restaurants. I thought the bed was comfortable and the shower was fantastic, and I also really liked that the entrance’s door lock code was tailored to me personally, making it easy for me to remember and difficult for others to figure out. I’d recommend staying here, and definitely book again.

Lovely 1-bedroom apartment with pool and gym
Mony's place was very clean and beautiful. It is located in a charming housing complex, and is a few minutes walk to a shopping mart and various restaurants. The complex has a gym, which made working out during my stay very convenient. I'd be very happy to stay here again on my next visit.

Executive Penthouse Historic Folsom, Ca.
We were absolutely thrilled with our stay. Directions to the lockbox were specific, the penthouse was very clean and welcoming. The location is within walking distance to many great restaurants. Our welcome book from the host, Douglas was super helpful. We would absolutely stay there again the next time we’re in town. Thank you Douglas for being such a gracious host!

Walk to A's , Kings, Capitol , River, free parking
Robyn’s place was better and more spacious than described. The location cannot be beat and it was so nice to have parking in downtown Sacramento. It was an easy walk to Doco and the Golden One center as well as lots of restaurants. Our family of 4 was more than comfortable. We had all the amenities we needed and more.

Sweet little Suite in Downtown Sacramento
My husband and I really enjoyed staying at Austin’s place! He kindly recommended some coffee shops that we ended up visiting and was very pleasant to communicate with. Would gladly stay at his place again!

Free Parking | 2nd Floor | Fast Internet | Balcony
Will stay again if ever in Sacramento! Bobby communicated proactively! Everything was as described! 🥳 Thank You!!!

Charming condo offering comfort & convenience
I loved my stay at Susan’s! Was very easy to locate and get inside. Susan was responsive and the description of the stay was accurate. Great location with a trail running behind it.

Executive Lookout: See-all, be-all, luxury condo.
Everything about this condo is 5 stars! I was lucky enough to stay for a month, and it was like being at home. The condo is well equipped with everything you might need, and the neighborhood is safe, walkable, with tons to do within walking distance. I hope to come back soon!

Your guide to Sacramento
Welcome to Sacramento
Smack-dab between San Francisco and Tahoe, and cut through by two big rivers, California's capital and oldest incorporated city embraces its rural past while rushing headlong into the future. Fortune-seeking Gold Rushers have been replaced by suit-wearing political strivers, but somehow this town has maintained an affable, unpretentious vibe. Upscale boutiques and farm-to-table restaurants dot the Grid — a network of numbered and lettered streets in the city center — while wooden sidewalks and historic buildings define Old Sacramento, where nostalgic kitsch rules the day.
The capitol building’s distinct copper dome dominates the Sacramento skyline, but its interior may be even more impressive, especially the 128-foot-tall ornate rotunda decorated with cast-iron grizzly bears. After touring the building, visitors pour forth into a forty-acre Victorian garden. In recent years, the dome has gotten some competition as visual mascot for the city, as Sacramento has gained recognition as a public arts hub with more than 700 murals. All of this is served among a booming craft beer and restaurant scene, concentrated in Midtown, making Sacramento an under-the-radar gem nestled in the sun-dappled environs of central California.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Sacramento
Thanks to its central inland location, Sacramento enjoys hot, dry summers — perfect for tubing on the American River or gawking at the scores of migratory bats that cluster under the nearby Blecher-Freeman Memorial Causeway. Fall and winter are cooler, with winter being the wettest season, which also ushers in bouts of notoriously dense fog. Spring is mild, and a perfect time for strolling streets lined with budding trees.
Top things to do in Sacramento
Railroad Museum
Visitors are invited into a different era at this museum that is home to 19 carefully restored steam locomotives and other grand vessels that once navigated the state’s vast rail network. You can also explore a 3,300-square-foot display of 1,000 vintage toy trains zipping past doll-sized mountains and towns. Complete your experience by hopping aboard a gondola pulled by a vintage diesel engine for a round-trip excursion along the Sacramento River.
Crocker Art Gallery
Like Sacramento, this art museum is a marriage of the past and the future. Installed inside a historic circa-1872 Italianate mansion, a bold modern addition was opened in 2010. The Teel Family Pavilion — a modernist expanse of clean lines and glass — tripled the size of the museum. Inside you’ll find a vast collection of Californian art, European paintings, and one of the largest international ceramics collections in the nation. Swing by the store to shop wares made by local artists.
Sacramento History Museum Underground Tour
Back in the mid-19th century, the youthful settlement of Sacramento was frequently flooded by the nearby river. The solution? Abandon the original city, and build on top of it. Later, excavations unearthed the subterranean city, and now you can descend below the Sacramento History Museum with tour guides dressed in period garb to explore an underground ghost town.
