South Lake Tahoe is a bit of a trek from Placerville (about an hour), but well worth the trip! The crystal clear lake is without a doubt one of the major, and one of the most beautiful, attractions in the area! It's perfect for a hike or to bundle up on the lake shore.
Apple Hill is just down the road from the wedding venue. Although mostly popular in fall with a large abundance of apple orchards owned by different farmers, it's a fun visit year round! Our favorite year-round farms are High Hill Ranch and Boa Vista Orchards.
If staying in Folsom, a fantastic spot for both brunch and dinner is Land Ocean. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu!
Another amazing brunch spot is The Mimosa House in Folsom. Over a dozen types of mimosas and a huge breakfast menu!
Looking for some amazing wineries without making a trip over to Napa or paying their more expensive tasting fees? Auburn is a great location for wineries! Vina Castellano is a particularly cozy den with delicious wines.
