Family-friendly vacation rentals in Folsom Lake

Janet was a wonderful host. She was incredibly responsive and made the weekend so easy. We loved her place, too!

I knew the house would be rustic, so I brought my camping gear. I did not need them. The kitchen was well equipt. I could cook anything I needed to make on the hot plate or in the microwave/toaster. There was also a smoker and like 5 BBQs. Do not be worried about cooking. The location is awesome. It is so close to so many things.. or you can just hang out on the property. We spent a day on the property and a day exploring. We spent every night in the hot tub. It was glorious. The bed is very comfortable!

We had a great stay at this home! The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful-- a great suburban area that was still very close to everything we needed. The large backyard was perfect for our dog and kids to run around and play. The rooms were clean and comfortable with cozy beds. The hosts were friendly and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

#2 One of the nicest Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed at! Peggy was a gracious and thoughtful host—she greeted us on arrival, showed us around, and stayed in touch throughout our stay. We brought our puppy and arranged a sitter for the wedding weekend, but Peggy even helped cover a gap and let our pup play with her dog when the sitter had to run out. The fenced yard, private entrance, and peaceful setting made it the most dog-friendly trip we’ve ever had. The home was spotless, the bed and couch were super comfy, and we loved relaxing in the hot tub and on the patio. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the location couldn’t be better—an easy 10-minute walk into charming downtown Nevada City for dinner and breakfast. 10/10—would absolutely stay again!

Robyn is a great host, she was proactive and always very responsive. The home is very well equipped and clean. The openness via the patio doors in each room was all the fresh air we needed, there was rarely a need for the a/c. The area itself is very centrally located, with events for the public held at least a few times a week that are within walking distance. We would definitely return when visiting the area again.

Very pleasant experience. Hot tub was great. Great neighborhood. Toby the dog was very friendly and was a great fetcher.

Peggy is an amazing host! She was helpful, responsive and joy to interact with. She was very welcoming to me and my dog Cuban. Very dog friendly place which was nice to have. The place is peaceful and tons of room to room around with your pet and different spaces to relax in. We will definitly come back!

Came here for a birthday trip and fell in love with cozy setting at this home. everything was clean and the bed super comfy. We used the hot tub and the experience was a blast as well as the decor. Absolutely loved our stay, and the very friendly welcome and hope to stay here again in the future!

This place is so nice and friendly, There are a beautiful backyard and beautiful views with big trees, We had so good time there And the kitchen had everything that you need and the beds were so comfortable and clean

Donna was super responsive and helpful and the place was incredibly comfortable, clean, well stocked and beautiful. I would 100% stay here again. It has everything you need and is so peaceful and quiet but close to town!

What a wonderful cottage. Great Spot to get away and relax.

We had a great stay at Mary’s guest suite in Grass Valley. The setting is beautiful and peaceful and the location was incredibly convenient to get to the fairgrounds where our band was performing. The house also easily accommodated our five-piece band and luggage. We would definitely stay here again!

This country cottage is centrally located in a peaceful location at the end of a private road. With access to the wine and ale trail as well as the venue for concerts and a farmers market down the road, there was lots to do. We loved the creek and welcoming touches the hosts provided and appreciated their friendly and prompt communication as well as accommodating an earlier check in for us. Thanks for a wonderful and relaxing stay at your property.

Paula’s place is great! It’s really nice and the pictures don’t do it justice. The serene landscape, farm animals, and sweet antique decor make it feel like an escape to grandmas house! Complete with a sweet snack upon arrival.

Most amazing view ever! My pups really enjoyed it and the dogs on the premises were super sweet and friendly… The place is cozy and cool and well decorated and everything I needed for a relaxing evening… Highly recommended!!!! Easy access private entrance super nice host!!!!!

Loved the place! It has everything you need for a short or long stay. Definitely recommend to anyone traveling in Sacramento or Davis area. Thanks for a great stay!

wonderful place to retreat...our second annual visit... looking forward to coming back again!

We came for our anniversary and felt right at home! The views were beautiful, being in a tiny house is so fun, enjoyed our meals on the patio and got to hang out with the goats and horses. Don’t forget to bring apples and carrots!!! We forgot the first night and got to pet the animals but went into town the next day to get snacks for our new friends. We also got to use the pool and enjoy a nice, quiet surrounding. Had we not forgot the snacks for the animals, we would have no reason to leave. Everything is so comfy and fun.

Prior to check in all the way through check out, Christian was an extremely communicative host. I really appreciate that there were very clear instructions for everything. Some of us were flying in from out of state and Christian was very accommodating with an early check in. This place is huge and spaciously laid out. We hosted dinner for 12 people multiple nights and with so much space, we never felt like we were on top of each other. Our group spent a ton of time outside-enjoying the relaxing pool and lounging area. The property is maintained and beautiful. We had 3 kids with us who were obsessed with this house! Christian has so much for the kids to do that they never got bored. Seriously - between the cinema room upstairs, pool, water slide, sports outside, foosball, there was never a dull moment which is really saying something for kids! I’d stay here again when I’m in town in a heartbeat. Thank you Christian and your family for the wonderful stay, we sincerely appreciate it

We recently stayed at Don and Kathy’s beautiful home for our son’s wedding weekend and it was absolutely magical. Don and Kathy were incredibly hospitable, always easy to reach, and made us feel so welcome. The home itself is stunning—truly something to experience. The home is well-appointed and thoughtfully designed, offering both comfort and style for a truly relaxing stay. The surroundings felt straight out of a Hallmark movie, with autumn leaves falling and twinkling Christmas lights creating a festive atmosphere. It was cozy, inviting, and felt just like home. We can't wait to come back and stay here again! Thank you, Don and Kathy, for making our special weekend even more memorable!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful property! There was plenty of space for our entire wedding party, and it was spotless when we arrived. Kathleen was an incredible host — so helpful, responsive, and flexible throughout the whole process, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The property itself is truly unique, with so many interesting historical decorations that gave it so much charm and character. We also loved taking advantage of all the activities available on-site, which made for an unforgettable experience. All our guests raved about the layout of the space and how much they enjoyed their time there. Highly recommend this Airbnb — it was the perfect setting for such a special occasion!

This wonderful little cabin was a great place to spend a getaway weekend with my son. The peaceful, wooded surroundings provided the relaxing backdrop I was looking for and my son was delighted with the wood burning stove. He discovered that the pine cones that were suggested as fire starters did a great job and he had a great time replenishing their supply from the woods around the cabin.

The cottage was very nice, with great views, tall ceilings, huge sliding glass doors, and perfectly set up for two couples. It was extremely clean! We had a great stay!

Wonderful hosts and beautiful private property
