Inkeepers Notes

The Powers Mansion is a wonderful 107-year-old Victorian home that is located in the heart of Gold Country. We have 10 gracious guest rooms, all with private baths and separate entrances. The lakes and rivers of the Sierra Foothills offer facilities for fishing, gold-panning and every other water sport. Hiking, horseback riding, skiing and golf are also nearby. Gold Country events are ongoing throughout the year. We want our guests to experience the old-fashioned hospitality, personal attention and comfort that just can't be found at a hotel. Our guests can relax and enjoy all the charm and history of a small town and the elegance of our grand Victorian home.
