Everything you could want in a B&B and so much more! Historical property, themed guest rooms, turn-of-the-century charm and decor, and the sweetest, most hospitable innkeepers you will ever meet! Not your standard B&B breakfast....DELICIOUS gourmet delicacies delight the palate. I was expecting fruit and yogurt, but instead got freshly made-that-morning scones, apple crunch "pan"cake (baked tart style in the... More

This was the first time my husband and I ever stayed at a B&B and we were so very fortunate to go to a good one! We thought the Albert Shafsky House Bed and Breakfast was very quaint and very clean! The wine in the afternoon was great and we especially were lucky because the other 2 couples that were... More

We just enjoyed our first stay at the Albert Shafsky House Bed and Breakfast. Its a charming Victorian home both inside and out. It is beautifully decorated and yet made us feel very much at home. My husband has a bad back and is always concerned about the beds where ever we stay at. He was absolutely thrilled that the... More

We were recommended to "The Shafsky House" by another B/B. We were so pleased they had availability for our two night stay. We were greeted by Rita and Lilly (the dashound), and shown the room that was available for our two nights. The house was very cosy and had a lovely feel with it.Rita was very interested in where we... More

From the minute Steph met us at the door of this Victorian inn, we knew we were in store for a great stay. We stayed in the Vineyard room with its luxurious king bed. The inn is known for its soft sheet and let me say they are the softest I have ever encountered. Each of the three rooms has... More

When we first arrived, we were concerned a bit; the neighborhood is nice, but the house next door is a bit run down on the exterior and parts of the B&B looked worn. But inside is terrific. Our room (on the first floor) was spacious, comfortable and quiet, with our own A/C unit to control as we wished. The living... More

My husband, friends, and I had a delightful stay at the Shafsky House. The Inn keeper, Rita made us feel so welcome. It was if we had known her for years. The Inn is right in the heart of Placerville so we could walk to the restaurants in town but still have a quiet nights sleep. Once you have slept... More

With the owner meeting us with a friendly greeting at the front door, already knew this was going to be a nice place. It was far past our expectation. Warm and friendly; rooms nicely appointed; glorious sheets; wine in the evenings, and tasty breakfasts. What more could you ask for. Walkiing distance to town (for meals), yet far enough for... More

First time B&B visit. Because I had a wonderful and memorable time, I am a B&B girl!! I felt spoiled and at home. Great food, wine and hostesses. My friend and I worked during the day and looked forward to an evening of relaxation! Great location. Within walking distance to the cute little town of Placerville. Near delicious wineries and...

Rita & Stephanie innkeepers are the Best! Very friendly and accommodating. The B & B is convenient to town, short walking distance over a footbridge. A lot of nice restaurants a short walk from the foot of the bridge. Rita made a great suggestion for each of the three nights we were there. We were greeted upon arrival with bottle... More
