We were on our way to Tahoe and decided to stay in Placerville for the night. The Cary House was rated well on Trip Advisor and when we arrived they matched the price we found at Hotel.com, which we thought was spectacular! Service was very friendly and our room was clean and had that old romantic charm. Only one complaint... More

We have severe allergies and asthma which makes it difficult for us to stay places. Missy was extremely empathetic and attentive to our needs. She went the extra mile and thought of things she could do that would assist us to have a safe stay. Missy personally oversaw the preparation of our room. We enjoyed staying in the Historic Cary...

I stayed at the Cary House for three nights while attending my friend's wedding, and the experience was phenomenal. The hotel and its rooms are very clean and neat, while providing a historic feel that made the trip even more memorable. The location is great - right on the main street of the town. The staff were probably the best... More

Attended a wedding back in September, and the entire bridal party stayed at the Cary House for the weekend. The customer service was outstanding; we arrived way earlier than expected and the receptionist gave us a room ahead of schedule with no charge. It was a wonderful place to spend the weekend; perfect location close to bar, salon, flower shop,... More

We had our wedding in Camino, CA in September 2011 with 100 guests. Almost all of our guests stayed at the Cary House in Placerville. Over a period of 9 months, we worked with Chester from the hotel to coordinate rooms and lengths of stay, which changed about a dozen times. Our party was so disorganized, but the Cary House... More

The Mother Lode attracted the ‘49ers to the Sierra Nevada and before the first gold panner could say “Sutter’s Mill,” he was joined by a rascally mob of crooks, claim jumpers, con artists, horse thieves, cutpurses and murderers. They seemed to gather around the shantytown of Dry Diggin’s. The miners didn’t have much patience with being relieved of their gold... More

I never know what to expect when a Hotel describes itself as being haunted. After spending a couple of days in room 212, I got to say I was impressed. Nothing reached out and grabbed me, but by K2 and some other instruments were off the charts. A few EVP’s as well. Service was great. Staff was friendly and the... More
