Book a hotel near Specie Mesa, Placerville

"A Truly Magical GetawayThis place is pure magic. The views alone make it worth the trip — every morning feels like waking up inside a painting. The peace and quiet of the surroundings, with only the sounds of nature and the occasional glimpse of wildlife, make it the perfect place to unwind and reconnect with the outdoors.The home is spotless and clearly well cared for. John designed and built it himself, which makes it extra special. The kitchen is impressively well stocked, with everything you might need to cook a full meal while soaking in those incredible views. Communication with the owner is smooth — you never hear from them unless you reach out, which gives you complete privacy while still knowing help is there if you need it.We loved exploring the nearby hikes, which offer even more stunning scenery. The roads getting there are fine, but we’d recommend a car with a little higher clearance for the driveway — it makes things easier.This was our second stay, and somehow it felt even more magical than the first. There’s just something about this place that stays with you — peaceful, beautiful, and unforgettable. We can’t wait to come back again.Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us, John!"
