El Dorado Hills is the perfect home for

Coloma or explore the authentic Gold Rush
downtown of Placerville, originally known as
“Hangtown.”
Close to home, in your own community,
you can golf, take in a movie, play or music
festival, dine according to your own style,
shop at specialty boutiques, bike scenic
trails or attend a variety of local events. The
