Gold Country Getaway
Our stay was great! The house was extremely clean, bright, and quiet. The check in/ out process was easy, and we felt welcomed. We appreciated being able to bring pets. Our dog made us laugh when he kept returning to the full-length mirror to look at himself. The mountains were beautiful. We would stay here again.
