Apple Country White House - Miner's Cabin

Spend the weekend in the country at this romantic getaway for two! This old miner's cabin, which has just been recently renovated (2020), is located in the heart of Apple Hill, in the Sierra Nevada foothills, and overlooks a small meadow and creek. Walk to nearby apple farms, breweries & wineries or just relax on the back deck and enjoy the scenery. Visit historic Placerville, its art galleries, restaurants, antique shops, and more! Raft, ski, kayak or just explore our 40-acre farm trails! (We are pet-friendly. Limit two large pets (15lb+) or 3 small (<=15lb) pets. Please be sure to include the pet fee if you are bringing any furry friends.)

Features include a rustic barn wood bedroom, a shiplap kitchen, and the (all tile) horse-stall bathroom. Amenities include a queen bed, rustic-styled furniture, romantic lighting, full-length wall mirror, and TV. French doors open to the outside deck overlooking the meadow. The kitchen is supplied with everything you need to cook a meal (gas stove, oven & microwave) with all utensils & cookware. It also includes a refrigerator with an ice maker. The bathroom is 100% barn wood ceramic tile, and has an overhead "rain shower," sink & toilet. The large back deck is fully gated to keep pets on the deck. Outdoor deck furniture includes a sofa with a propane fire pit, a bistro table & chairs. Backyard amenities include Adirondack chairs, a propane BBQ, and a small fire pit for evening fires. (Bring your Bluetooth and connect to the home's built-in sound system.)

Traffic noise
Beautiful surroundings. Decorated nicely, ambiance was perfect. Bed was comfortable. Couldn’t go outside to eat breakfast, cause sprinklers drenched the porch. Sprinklers hitting window while sleeping, on corner lot of two busy roads, you will need ear plugs to drown out trucks and motorcycles. Otherwise we had a great time.

Weekend escape
This was our second stay at this adorable miners cabin. We had such a nice stay the previous year that we wanted to come back again. The win here is the property and location that this cabin is situated on. It is a completely private setting with a really nice outdoor space on the back deck to relax and enjoy a glass of wine with the fire table and fairy lighting that extends over the many acres of green grass and forest. The cabin is extremely clean and has every amenity that you need to be able to cook and store food and drinks. We visited several local breweries while we were there that were no more than a mile away from the cabin. Easy booking, good communication with host and an awesome weekend getaway!!

Coziest Cabin
This was our second trip to the White House. We enjoyed it just as much as our first trip. We hoped for a nice sunny weekend to enjoy the beautiful outdoors but Mother Nature had different plans. It rained then snowed! However, it didn’t take away from our weekend. The cabin has everything you need should you choose to stay put and enjoy the property. The house is walking distance to apple orchard stands and a quick drive to many wineries. We had the best stay and can’t wait to return again!

Unique setting
For anyone who knows the history surrounding this part of the country, gold was discovered arounf 1849 and it changed thousands of peoples lives. So to actually live in a real miners house, well you couldn't have asked for a better place. Thank you Gorden for keeping history alive. By the way the bathroom is unbelievable, hats off to you!

Miner House
While located by two main roads traffic wasn't much of an issue and also helped us judge road conditions by speed. After the usual commute times it was very quiet and the wildlife appeared-deer, squirrels and lots of birds everyday. We had a small dog with us and he loved his daily walks and the enclosed deck. We live in the woods and for our twice-yearly trips usually stay in less populated areas like this with resources nearby. The little cottage was perfect for us, even on the first two rainy days. We don't spend much time indoors and the 3 sunny days, while chilly, were perfect for hiking. We were already familiar with the area, she having lived in Placerville and I because of my childhood raised wild:) We will be back!!

This is our second time here, we really love it!! Gordon remembered the kind of wine we liked. The White House is a peaceful and romantic getaway. We spent most of our time outside, the deck is large, the furniture comfortable and the lights at night are amazing. Don’t hesitate to book some time here, you will not regret it

This place is absolutely amazing!! It is on the small side so just be efficient but it has so many cool features, especially the shower, which I had in my own house. The location is central to wine tasting, hiking, or just relaxing. We had a very relaxing time.

Relaxing and Rewarding Getaway
My stay at the Miner’s Cabin was rewarding and relaxing. I have family who reside in the Apple Hill area who I visit each year. In the past, I have stayed at a nearby motel, but this year I decided to look into a VRBO. The cabin provided a far superior experience. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. The outdoor deck provided a peaceful place to enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape and a glass of wine. I look forward to returning to the cabin on future visits!

Glamping in the meadow
Beautiful and serene setting that created a picturesque getaway. Buffered by a creek with bushes and trees that surround a lawn which further enhances a quiet retreat atmospere. Hours can be spent on the back deck with friends doing their own wine tasting. Centrally located to all great local hotspots.

Perfect for a weekend of wine tasting
This property was exactly as described. We enjoyed the huge grassy yard and big deck with fire table, speakers and over head back yard lights. The cabin was quaint and well stocked. We liked the horse stall bathroom shower and open beam ceilings. Location, location, location! Easy to get to wine tasting, restaurants, or just relaxing with a glass of wine on the deck.

Cabin Getaway
We loved our stay at the White House! My husband and I were looking for a getaway with our pups and the White House delivered. We had a wonderful time sitting on the deck, listening to music, grilling and enjoying a fire at the bottom of the property with the dogs. It was so relaxing, peaceful and fun to enjoy the outdoors. Gordon was very responsive and provided all the information we needed as well as personalizing our stay. The White House provided us with everything we needed. We brought our own groceries and only left for small outings with the pups. Since it was so lovely outside we grilled the entire time and the grill worked fabulously. The blue tooth sound system on the deck was awesome. The lights around the property and inside the white house were exceptional. Plenty of comfortable seating areas and ways to keep warm. The deck was enclosed which was really nice when we didn't want to keep our eyes on the dogs. The White House was very comfortable and well equipped. We will for sure be back as it was the perfect way to spend a long weekend. Thank you Gordon!

Apple Hill Cabin
We spent several days in the Apple Hill area sampling the local wine, beer, and food. We had a short day trip to Eldorado National Forest hiking. The cabin is perfect for a couple looking to disconnect and relax. We spent more hours on the porch than anywhere. Mornings were filled with sunrise hummingbirds and others and evenings with a few deer. The small kitchen was great for two to cook but there is plenty of good food close and the markets. We used the gas grill for steaks. We were early for apples but maybe another time. Groceries are easy to get in Placerville. Thanks to our host for making it easy.

What a cute cabin surrounded by gorgeous property! The patio is perfectly set up with comfortable chairs to relax and enjoy the view. The ambiance of the outdoor lighting and fire pits made the evenings special. The host, Gordon, kindly left us a bottle of wine and filled the dogs water bowl with fresh water before we arrived to the property. We appreciate our fur children being welcomed as well. Thank you for helping make our weekend memorable!
