San Francisco Off the Beaten Path Tips by nancyw

While working in San Francisco, I had the opportunity to spend the weekend in Placerville. It's a small town within a very easy drive from the city. Partway to Lake Tahoe, Placerville is set in the hills and is worth a weekend (or a week's!) stay. River rafting, shopping in unique boutiques, hiking, and good restaurants.

I stayed at a wonderful bed and breakfast called the Shafsky house. Stephanie and Rita, the owners, made sure I was comfortable and have everything I needed, including a full and delightful breakfast each morning. They had great ideas for things to do. The house/rooms are charming and the location is terrific, close enough to downtown to walk to restaurants and bars, but since it's a few blocks away, it's very quiet. Best, the price was definitely right!
