Fodor's Expert Review Eden Vale Inn
1780 Springvale Rd., Placerville, California, 95667, USA Fodor's Choice
This lavish but rustic B&B occupies a converted turn-of-the-20th-century hay barn, the centerpiece of which is a 27-foot slate fireplace that rises to a sloping ceiling of timber beams. Every room was designed with romance and pampering in mind, with meticulous bedding, gas fireplaces, and private entrances to sleek, deep outdoor tubs secluded by lattice sliding doors. Lush gardens and hammocks overlook a pond and wooded nooks. Guests enjoy breakfasts of homemade breads and dishes cooked with herbs and vegetables grown on-site or nearby.
