We stayed in the spacious Lighthouse room, on the 2nd floor of this charming B&B. Our room was filled with darling antiques and collectibles. Rita, one of the owners, was friendly and helpful, and an excellent cook, to boot! This B&B is a 5-min. walk from downtown Placerville, a quaint town with great shopping, great food, and great customer service.... more

They accomodated our late arrival, recommended a perfect restaurant and made the reservations, and served a great breakfast. more

Beautifully restored home steeped in history, short walk over a foot bridge to Old Town, comfortable rooms that take you back to yesteryear, but mostly hosts that instantly make you feel like long-time friends. Add entertainment by a darling dashund named Lilly, a fantastic gourmet breakfast the next morning, interesting/friendly other guests, and you know you have picked the perfect... more

My partner and I stayed here for three nights in May as part of a week-long Amtrak/bicycling tour of Sacramento and the Gold Country. Rita and Stephanie helped us plan activities for our too-brief stay, and Rita even drove us to white water rafting one morning (since it was too far for us to cycle before our start time), then... more

Having the privilege of spending two summer days at... more

The owners are extremely gracious and had excellent recommendations for places to visit and restaurants to eat at. The room was comfortable, large, and tastefully decorated. Breakfast was excellent -... more

If you want to be treated special and experience a delicious breakfast every morning than stay at the Shafsky House Bed & Breakfast ; Rita and Stephanie will show you how it is to be innkeepers who are passionate about people. Placerville is a lovely town with much to offer in the way of dining and entertainment for a weekend... more

We used tripadvisor ratings to select this B&B for a getaway weekend of wine tasting (and buying) and pleasurable meals. The ratings are deserved. We had been warned that the room (Gandy Dancer) could be subject to street noise, but on the quiet, rainy weekend we visited, this was not an issue. Rita was a delightful and helpful host, who... more
