Porch and grounds

Porch and grounds

You are invited to enjoy warm Scottish hospitality in the historic Henry S. Morey house, built in 1859 as a Gold Rush era farm house. It is a gracious, rambling, one-story estate, surrounded by a 1.6 acre wooded glen. Comfortably furnished and decorated with Scottish antiques, GlenMorey House provides a quiet, relaxing retreat for our guests.

Situated on a hill, high above old Placerville, in the heart of the historic district, and secluded in its own private forest of mature evergreen and deciduous trees, GlenMorey offers the best of both worlds.
