We chose this B&B expecting it to be similar to those we'd stayed in elsewhere in US - pleasant quirky Victorian legacies - and Placerville was recommended as a good place to stop between Tahoe & SF. Wine on arrival had clearly evaporated before we got there! Otherwise house was as expected. Room and bed were comfortable although there was... More

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. We have stayed at quite a few Bed and Breakfast, and this is one of our favorites. It has a very welcoming and warm atmosphere in nice victorian style home. The sheets are suppppper soft. It is in a 5 minute walking distance to the little main street that is filled with great little... More

My wife and I spent part of Labor Day weekend at the Albert Shafsky B&B in Placerville, CA. Rita and Jennifer, the owners of the B&B couldn't have been more gracious. We came to visit friends who live in the area and picked out this property through the internet. Our booking was made through Expedia.com. It was an excellent choice... More

Once we walked in and were greeted by RIta, we were impessed with the peaceful, quiet music playing, the absence of television, and the bottle of wine waiting in the parlor. Oh yes, just "r-e-l-a-x", slow down a bit, let the world go rushing by all around you; it won't find you here in this cocoon of coziness. Just sit... More

My husband and I had a blast staying at the Albert Shafsky House this weekend! We couldn't say enough good things about it. The breakfasts that Rita cooked were amazing and the garden was peaceful to sit in and enjoy in the evening and morning hours. Rita and Stephanie were VERY hospitable and it felt like they were old friends... More

Just go home from a wonderful two night stay at the Shafsky House B&B. Rita was a gracious host, who cooked a couple tasty breakfasts for us. She was very friendly and truly seemed to enjoy our varied conversations. She had the right personality to run a B&B. Loved the locally produced Barbera that was always out in the living... More

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at Albert Shafsky House. We had Alberta's Attic which is a glorious step back in time. A beautiful 2 room suite furnished with love. From the beautiful, and oh so comfortable four poster bed, to the delightful reclining chairs, as well as personal memorabilia from the owner's, we felt like pampered guests.... More

Me and my husband of 23 years snuck away from 3 teenage boys for some r&r. The town is wonderful. Shopping has a variety of treasures to explore. Came specifically to revisit Winterhill and purchase their fine and absolutely delicious olive oils. The B&B is walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The B&B was just as promised on the website.... More

This is a gem in the B&B world. We loved our stay and the owners are so personable. Placerville is a fun town with great outdoor activities and restaurants. You will not be disappointed.
