Lovely Place - Great Stay

We loved our stay at Back of the Moon Cottage. The house was clean, spacious, and very comfortable for the 5 of us. The interior is beautifully updated with the the charm of an old home. We were 5 minutes from Placerville and another 10 minutes from a wedding in Apple Hill. We would stay here again in an instant on our next trip to this region. Great host/great place!

Excellent Home!

This was an outstanding home to stay in with my family. Centrally located for everything we wanted to do, extremely clean and welcoming. The garden and basketball court in the back was an amazing surprise! Will stay again when we return.
