This old orchard was part of Capt. D.C. Rumey's farm in the 1860's. The town of Rumsey took its name from him because he was an early settler and had a wayside inn and stage stop. Until several decades ago, his farm house stood across the road from my B&B. Our valley was settled by fruit farmers who shipped their produce on a railroad that connected Rumsey to Port Costa in the Bay Area, thus beating the East Coast produce which had to come across the country on the railroad. There are still many historic structures in our valley dating from that time.

Cabin Near River Swimming
We had a nice stay in Camilla's little cabin. We stayed in the middle of July, which is not recommended since temperatures were in the 100s! But the cabin had wonderful A/C so we stayed indoors during the day, and then enjoyed the evening outside with our dogs. We enjoyed the large yard, but there were a lot of foxtails, weeds, and it was not fenced so we couldn't let our dogs roam around freely. It still made for a nice, short getaway.

What an Amazing Weekend!
We stayed in this cute little cabin for the weekend and found it just the right size for us. There was a little bathroom, with a shower and sink, and plenty of towels. The bed and pillows were super super comfy and nice soft sheets. She had cups and a coffee pot for us (shame we didn't think to bring coffee!), but no fridge available and no fire allowed for cooking. Camilla also had plenty of fans going and a portable AC unit, so we could stay cool (it was over 100 degrees outside). One thing I wasn't super excited about was the number of spiders lurking about (mostly daddy long legs, so I wasn't TOO scared). There were quite a lot of spiders, but I guess that's to be expected when you're surrounded by farm land! Also the water from the sink and shower smelled pretty strongly of sulfur, so we didn't drink it. We brought our own drinking water, luckily. The cabin is located super close to the river and a little swimming hole; Camilla provided very specific (and very cute) instructions to help us get there and we LOVED it. It was less than two miles away. The nearest town (Guinda) was only about 10 minutes away and had the best BBQ we've ever had - it's called the Commons Farm Kitchen Bar and they were offering outdoor seating with cornhole and plenty of beers and desserts. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend eating here.
