Excellent place to stay that is very close to rafting and chilling at the American River and adorable downtown Placerville/Hangtown. Two great sized rooms, pool, and fabulous lounging areas. Great attention to detail and all the amenities you will need. We will definitely try to go back.

Thank you so much , it was my pleasure hosting you and your guest , hope u return to stay again!
The house is super clean, airy, and comfortable, with a relaxed, homey feel. Lovely views. Audio visual system and heater/AC were easy to figure out. Lots of little extra touches, like nightlights in strategic places, and a well-stocked and organized kitchen. Host communications were prompt and friendly. Looking forward to another stay. Choose this one!
This place was perfect for our long stay. Beautiful surroundings, friendly and helpful host(Thanks, Keri!) and has all the amenities well stocked. Beds and bedding were wonderful and comfortable, and the place is roomy.
Close to all the wonderful attractions in gold country. Plus beautiful sunsets

Thank you so very much for the wonderful review and choosing The Getaway for your stay. It was wonderful to meet you both .it was a pleasure hosting your stay and hope you return to stay again. Sincerely Keri Kelly at The Getaway
This was a peaceful retreat from all the wedding events! We had everything we needed, including a late night swim to relax after the wedding. It is so close to town but it feels like a true get away from everything!
The accommodations were very cozy, quiet and serene. The House had a beautiful deck overlooking forested area by the creek below. The house was very, very clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything you would need. It was really neat seeing deer, goats and wild turkeys near the property.

Keri our host was so sweet and accommodating. The house was lovely, it made us feel welcomed. The patio was great to sit out on in the mornings and evenings. We were gone from 11:00 am to 6 or 7 each day but got one mornining in the pool which was very refreshing. Highly recommend this home The Getaway is the perfect name . Thank you Keri for sharing it with us.
