Why spend your Saturday morning in Sutter Creek???
The crisp morning breeze and smell of fresh flowers and newly picked produce invites you to the Farmers Market! 🍓💐
Just down the road starting at 10 a.m, is the Knight Foundry self-guided walking tour. Expert docents are in hand to run magnificent antique machinery and talk with visitors.
That still leaves you time to spend the afternoon and evening at the Amador County Fair just 10 minutes away in Plymouth! Sunday is the last day to get your fill of fair food, rides and entertainment. 🎡
Time to get up, get ready and get outside!!! 🎉☀️

Amador County, California with Kids (California’s Gold Country)
Looking for the perfect weekend getaway from the Bay Area? Check out beautiful Amador County! We spent the weekend up there and it was the perfect break from school & work. Here is what to know:
🚗 Travel from the Bay Area: Expect about 3 hours from the Bay Area. You can either come from the Sacramento area across Highway 16 or through Stockton and then up Highway 4.
🏠 Where to stay: We adore @dogponyranch in Clinton - it does book out months in advance but follow on social media for cancellations. This vacation rental offers dog-friendly accommodations on a stunning 60-acre ranch and includes some time helping with farm chores (if you choose!). There are also a lot of historic inns as well as @jacksoncasino for a hotel stay.
What to do:
🌳 A trip to Amador County isn’t complete without learning about its rich history. Start off by visiting Indian Grinding Rock State Historic Park to learn about the first inhabitants of the area and then continue by visiting one of the museums or historic sites related to California’s Gold Rush.
🔦 For those seeking to discover the caverns in the area, @black.chasm.cavern offers tours daily.
🍭 The best pastime: find one of the charming mining towns and stroll up and down the main street!
🍔 Where to dine: We dined at Brickhouse Brews (Jackson), @pinegroveroadhouse (Pine Grove), @volcanounion (Volcano) and then prepared our Saturday night meal with groceries from the local market.
Have you ever visited Amador County?
