It's back to Placerville... in the Gardens of Eden Vale!

I wonder if Mark and Gail ever sleep, they just keep building onto this over-a-hundred-year-old barn! They've done an amazing job building a modern, contemporary, luxury inn inside the old barn they bought decades ago in the foothill of the Sierra Nevada's. Attention to details and a great eye for what people are looking for in a retreat is their prime motivation. Here is the gigantic main living room with fire ablaze.

They have just added 5 new rooms, three on the ground floor of the barn house and two more over by the lake they've created on the property. We went out to shoot these new rooms and were blown away by their sheer elegance! Each has a private outdoor soaking tub and deck area to enjoy the majesty of the western Sierra's.

The new Madrone Room is very large with custom lighting, top of the line beds and bedding and all the modern amenities you could ask for, including WiFi everywhere!

Mark and Gail are very articulate in everything they do and it sure reflects in their rooms and gardens. You feel you are far, far from the noise and commotion of the city but with all the modern convieniences of a very high-end hotel... and, you actually are!

We love to return to Eden Vale and spend time with Mark and Gail, we do work hard to get the great shots, but it is so easy to relax in the Gardens of Eden Vale. Look for their new rooms when their new WowiZowi website goes live soon. www.edenvale.com
